its so unseasonably hot in berkeley

That if I had a yard, I'd sleep out in it, under the stars... If I could see them ... which I can't because of the urban street light aura.

So, I open my window, put in my earplugs, and pretend I'm 13 again.
I'll get about as much sleep as the night Wesley J. Felber, my brother and other neighbor kids spent in the back yard, and we talked all night about what we would do with a girl, if we could ever get one.

I lack stimulus

So, it’s Mother’s Day. I called my Mom. We talked about the usual things. Somehow we got on the subject of the Government Stimulus Package. My brother used his stimulus to buy a barbeque (not sure if was American made) and was going to cook steaks for Mother’s day. Stimulating steaks I guess. I said I hadn’t got my check yet. She said, she doubted I would get one. So I checked on the IRS Website. (The have a stimulus calculator.) Indeed, I don’t qualify. So, much for the government stimulating me.

It's ok, I was going to mail it back. This saves me 42 cents.
