Show me the MONEY!

That feels sort of like GOD saying, LET THERE BE LIGHT!  And, there was!

I didn't even have to say ... show me the MONEY, and there was!  I was checking my account yesterday to see how much money I can take to Vegas with me, and did a double take when I realized I had more money than I was supposed to have.  I wasn't sure if the bank had made an error or what, and I didn't want to spend some other bank customer's money.  Hmmm, where did that extra $400.00 come from?  The money fairy? 

No, turns out, it was UNCLE SAM! 

Who knew there was $400.00 in stimulus money just waiting to find its way into my checking account?  Not me, I didn't know, and if I had known, I probably wouldn't have applied for it.  Who knew the IRS would send you stimulus money even if you don't apply for it?  Not me, I didn't know.  I was clueless.  But, since they are going to insist that I have it, I'm going to give it away.  Not only am I going to Vegas (cha ching), but I have lots of presents to buy over the next month or so.  A Friend's Birthday, Mother's Day, My Father's Birthday, A Baby Shower, My Mother's Birthday, Another Baby Shower and finally, last but not least, Father's Day!  Count them, that's seven presents over the span of 6 weeks.  CHA CHING.  Since I always give my parents money (nothing says I love you like a crisp big bill) for all the official present giving holidays except for Christmas, that money will be back on the street in no time .... stimulating someone else! 

Please note:  Even though I have no children, I am fiscally responsible in my own life, and I wish we (as a nation) weren't digging a hole to China, and burying your children's futures in it.  Sorry, bout taking the money and running it over to someone else.
