Slept from after eleven to before seven. Woke once in the night, briefly, without getting out of bed. I feel fairly rested, despite going to bed a little late.
There's a dusting of snow on the ground this morning. High of thirty-two today. Scattered snow showers.
Took an interest in my electricity bill this morning. $39 for 218 kWh. That's $0.178 per kWh.
http://www.npr.org/sections/money/2011/10/27/141766341/the-price-of-electricity-in-your-state
"The average price people in the U.S. pay for electricity is about 12 cents per kilowatt-hour. (Context: A typical U.S. household uses about 908 kWh a month of electricity.)"
Although that data is from 2011, my household certainly seems to be among the highest electricity prices in the country. Hmph.
Looks like my average usage for the year is around 217 kWh per month.
My highest usage is during August and September.
My lowest usage is during May and November.

Saw the new Star Wars movie. I liked it. Way better than the prequels.
