My home is colder than Ireland

My home, or house rather, is colder than the cottages in Ireland. I live in a really old house in Easttown. It's really big and open. Heat bills are going to be atrocious this year. My mom told me the predicted average for gas bill this winter is going to be something like $120/month. Right now, we are paying $30, so that's a pretty drastic change.

Living on your own is not all it's cracked up to be.
Crap.

It's not like living at home where parents are there to pay the bills and the lights heat appliances turn on naturally, or so I used to think. It's not like living in the dorms where there is an RA to kick people out-- you have to do that yourself. Locked out of your house? not as simple as calling and RA to open the door or sneaking through your suitemates room. Internet not working? Can't just call ITS. No food? Can't just go to the cafeteria.
