Unexpected Awesomeness

I was wondering how soon my Tax Refund and Stimulous Package would arrive.

I had forgotten that I opted to have that sent by direct deposit into my checking account. Refund's been there for two weeks, the StimPak there for 3 days. I thought I'd get a post card or an email or something.

Hooray for Refunds!

Time Flies

Yesterday, I had two reminders of how time flies.

The first is obvious: Tax Day. I'm getting a tidy little refund, not to mention a piece of Dubya's economic stimulus package. Even if everybody drops all that money on consumer goods, in the long run it won't bolster an economy crippled by the housing bubble burst. Like that's gonna keep me from doing my patriotic duty to wantonly spend this windfall on impulse purchases. An HDTV would go pretty well with that PS3.

The second reminder of the quickly passing days was the six month anniversary of my new job. Tempus fugit.
