386

Internets, let's play a game. I'm going to give you a number, and you have to guess what I'm talking about. Ready? Ok, here's the number: 386.

So, what do you think? Number of jelly beans in a jar on my kitchen counter? Number of times I've said "No, not for babies" in reference to dog and cat kibble this week? Number of hours I've spent wishing [insert witty, male Jewish celebrity here] were my boyfriend?

No, no, and no.

I'll give you a hint. On the same paper that 386 is printed, it also says, "The average daily high temperature during this billing period was 101°; average daily high temperature during the same billing period last year was 94°."

Now you see, don't you, internets? 386 is the number of dollars that BK and I owe TXU Energy. That's right. Our electricity bill was $386. So America, unless your forecast for the next three days looks like this:



and your electricity bill this past month was $386 or more, I don't want to hear it.

sounds like you need to click on that link at the bottom of your forecast, the one that says "learn to keep your cooling costs down".
