Nathalie and I got to celebrate the sudden influx of Cash into our checking Account via the economic stimulus package for about... 3 days.

Unfortunately, the wad of cash from the government sitting in our account completely offset the balance of the universe. And since the universe will always maintain a balance, it corrected itself by quickly creating avenues for the money to bleed out of our account in the form of a car repair and several other miscellaneous expenses.

So we're right back to where we started.
So much for that short lived wealth.
