I just yesterday got something in the mail saying I should expect it May 16.

I got that letter too, but I'm expecting mine via snail-mail. Any chance they've lost your direct deposit info?

I should have gotten mine last week, too. (Another SSN-ending-with-71 here.) I did have to pay this year, but I filed back in the beginning of February and paid with direct withdrawal, so I thought I'd be getting a direct-deposit check early.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I also got nothing.

YAY Aims! In your face, DouchNozzle!

I think I need to order that something Brenda linked to earlier. It's just that kind of day.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Does anyone have a link to the stimulus check schedule handy?

For those who are into true crime stories, they're exhuming 100-year-old graves that are associated with a female serial killer nicknamed "Lady Bluebeard."

All the big aspects of true crime tales: female serial killer luring men with suggestive letters and lonely hearts ads, possibly realizes the jig is up and torches her home with what might be a switched body (beheaded) inside purporting to be her. One hundred years later, they exhume "her" body to do a DNA test comparing it to saliva from one of her luring letters, only to find children's bones mixed with the woman's body, leading investigators to wonder if she also killed children.
