Not so bad after all...good, lazy day. Made it to the gym and then picked up food to last the rest of the week.
Fresh spinach in stock; and made use of some coupons. Not bad.
Finished up Season 2 of 30 rock, and another new-ish episode of Battlestar Galactica.
Got my electric bill in the mail for December and January (to date)...it's kind of higher than I'm used to. Several reasons:
1. We only use electric heat
2. No gas heat here
3. Bigger apartment than last year, more space to heat
4. Crappy single-pane windows here, seems like we're definitely losing something in efficiency
5. Snowy and unusually cold winter here - so the heat is on all the time.
I miss the days when ~40 bucks for a heating bill in China was enough to upset me...or even ~100 bucks to have heat for the whole winter (though, on further thought, that was totally a scam in that those bastards in my original building shut the heat off at night when I was at home and had it on during the day when I wasn't home. I'm sure someone was skimming out of that...I digress)
