The Electric Bill

I live in Los Angeles and during late August/early September there was a serious heat wave that hit the city. I live in an apartment and only have a wall unit air conditioner in my living room so for a few nights I slept in the living room with the air conditioner on all night long.

I dreaded the upcoming bill. The bill arrived recently and it was high. It was at an all time high -- by $1. I was expecting it to come in at 20 to 30 percent higher considering that the air conditioner was on all night long. When I saw the bill, even though it was at an all time high, it was a very pleasant surprise.
