The heat is . . . . On.
ba da buh daba ba da buh daadaa da da...
Yes it's almost that wonderful time of year again, when the gas company will do their best to hold us hostage.
Sending those outrageous ransom demands of three hundred dollars or more every month...
If you want to see your heat again you'll pay up. Or else!
I really wish I had a wood burning stove in here. Just one more thing to add to the list of reasons I want to own my own house. I don't want to put replacement windows in my apartment, and neither does my landlord apparently. And I'm certainly not going to pay for a wood stove and installation of it. Knowing that someday I'm going to move and what a pain it would be to try and then take it back with me... SO I'll pay them their money, begrudgingly of course, so we won't freeze to death.
More for the fishes sake than mine, the dog will keep me warm.
Fight the new world order.
Take care of yourselves, figure out how to exist on this earth without outside help, rather than just accepting how everyone else does it.
There must be a better way of living, other than accepting a prisoner like status to this system of ease and convenience. We'll deliver comfort to your door, in heat and electricity and groceries are a delivery service as well... You just have to accept whatever cost we decide to deem fair. And you will pay it, even if you think it's unfair. Why? Because what else are you goin to do? Freeze to death? The state will deem your home unfit for living if you can't heat it... So the man knows you'll pay, whatever ths cost, or kill yourself trying.
This is not real life, existing only to work too often and to hard, just to stay warm and fed...
Now consider this though, a few hundred years ago, we were in the same boat, working all day long to make sure we were warm and fed.
But do you think it might have been more fulfilling taking care of ourselves rather than having a price put on our needs by someone else?
I think I'm just ranting now, but I know there is a better way.
It may not be amish or mountain hermit.
I think like in all things there is a middle way....
If I figure it out, I'll let you know.
