perspective and the electricity bill

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Toronto, 2011.11.10

I was fretting that our electricity bill is rarely south of $50 for a month; then Mari reminded me that in Tokyo we paid $100 a month!

Happily, it turns out that we can write off a portion of that bill, as we're using about 20% of our apartment for office space.

Which, I imagine, will change in the new year when the next child is born.

Perspective, perspective.

I believe you find life such a problem because you think there are good people and bad people. You're wrong, of course. There are, always and only, the bad people, but some of them are on opposite sides.

—Terry Pratchett (as Lord Vetinari)
