Imaginary? Im a real boy!
Biff's not invited to the apartment we're all getting together. He thinks we're imaginary.
You guys leave the doors open with the AC running? That's insane.
That's kind of mean Hanni, she never looked overweight to me
It usually stays around 70. If I tried I could probably bring the bill down some. I still dont think I could get it in the 200's though.
Do you have a programmable thermostat? Mine is something like 77 from 7am-4pm, 74 from 4pm-10pm, 70 from 10pm-7am. No reason to keep it super cool when I'm not home.

I don't think you are, she does.
I don't have a programmable installed at my new house yet, but we put the thermostat up on around 77 during the day and drop it to 72 when I get home. Definitely helps out.
Usually it takes a woman at least 5 minutes of knowing me to start insulting me.
I dont think our a/c stops running during these really hot days. We have 2 units running almost all the time. The downstairs unit might cut off at night, but I think the upstairs unit runs 24/7. I need to get me some of those programmable thermostats.
This is one of the reasons I was only interested in a single story house. They are more expensive to heat and cool, and my lazy ass doesn't do stairs.
I dont think my a/c would ever rebound from 77 on these really hot humid days we have been having.
lol. The stairs are kind of a bitch. I always get to the bottom and remember something I need from upstairs.
Sounds about right. Rhino's is 4 degrees cooler, so his would be a decent bump above yours.
If I forget something in the bedroom by the time I've made the kitchen, I complain about having to turn around. If there were stairs involved, my wife would hate me.
