Too warm with the oodie on, but too cold without it (even though I have a shirt, and two hoodies on).

I've noticed my apartment is weird; the balcony faces north, overlooking the alley, but no view due to the apartment building next door. It is also a taller building than mine, so no sun can hit my balcony until spring/summer when the Earth is closed and tilted appropriately.

Makes for too cold winters and too hot summers. But! I've been approved for URGS, so I don't have to stress about the electricity bills piling up, all aid off now. And since the Anko brand portable heater carked it last year and hasn't been used, our electricity consumption has gone down by 7kwh on average. That little Anko heater was a fucking power guzzler.
