I haven’t caught up on LJ, but this seems a good thing for the Californicators to see:
Pacific Gas & Electric Co., our utility provider, has informed us that Thursday, July 5, 2007 will be a Heat Alert Day. What this means is electricity and gas costs hourly will increase significantly between the times of 12:00pm and 6:00pm tomorrow. Please shutdown and turn off any unnecessary appliance or equipment during this time period. If you can reduce or shutdown the A/C unit, please do so.
So… what can you turn off? 🙂
We are totally going to the movies. And then maybe out to have drinks. Then maybe back for another movie.
Oh! BTW, we’re home. I’ll tell you about wussing out later. 🙂
I guess this means don’t use the hitachi, eh?
welcome back.
as to “wussing out,” I say: you should get to spend your honeymoon any way you want. If that includes changing plans, so be it.
Shut down the AC unit?? I just turned my space heater on in my cubie.
I want to go to the movies and have a drink.
I promise I won’t wuss out!
I spent today at my parents house doing yardwork. Yay! Total household energy consumption ~0 Total water consumption ~ a gallon.
