just rambling on a bit.

October 14th, 2007 at 09:57 am

I probably spend the least on electric than anyone I know. I was afraid that recently I've used a lot more though. For one thing since its October and I'm a huge horror movie fan I started my own little horror movie marathon. I watch at least one scary movie evey night on a DVD or video this month. Kinda silly maybe but I love that stuff and its cheap entertainment. Well anyway I just got my new electric bill emailed to me and it was
a whopping $16.31. So I was very pleased with that. Its usually around 18 to 20 dollars. So far the Gas (heating) bill is very low too but I haven't run any heat yet and winter is on its way. Thats always scary.

In other news the Cleveland Indians won last night. YAY! I'm not a huge baseball fan. I haven't even watched a game in a couple of years. But last night I came home from work and noticed the game was
still on so I started watching it. It was
tied for quite awhile at 6-6. It was so exciting when the Indians kicked butt at the very end and won 13-6. Now if they can just win again tonight.

Not much else is new here. Although that can be a good thing. I'm still saving up
to buy a Palm TX. I'm only about 100 dollars short of what I need to get it.
I like saving up special for some things. It makes it more worthwhile when you actually get it.

    Okay, you have to tell me how you manage an electric bill that low. Do you live in the dark or what? Wink Really, tell me your secrets!

    Its an ancient Chinese secret. :-)
    No I really don't have any special secret. I'm just frugal about most things. I live by myself in a small house. Mostly I turn the lights and TV off when I'm not using them. And I don't have air conditioning or even run fans unless I have to.

    I am a big fan of horror movies too... I get mine from the library, Netflix and from Comcast on demand's free movies. It can be great entertainment. I don't know if you like older movies, but the Hitcock classics are good for suspense. Its not blood and gore horror, but they're definately worth watching!

    I like a lot of different kinds of movies HouseHopeful.
    I get most of mine from the Library too. The Hitchcock movies are always good. I also like the old Hammer Horror type movies that are a bit gory. On my private little marathon I'm mixing it up a bit with old 50's sci fi and newer "classics" like "Halloween" and "Nightmare on Elm Street". You are cordially invited Househopeful if you bring the popcorn.
