Gratitude List for 5 Asmá

Today I am thankful ...
          ...that the $10.00 I transferred from PayPal hit my checking account this morning
          ...for the chocolate chip cookies I have to go with my coffee.
          ...that I have 63,800 points in my YouGov account.
          ...for fresh brewed hot coffee.
          ...that I have 57 points in my Survey Junkie account.
          ...that I have $35.98 in my Vindale Research account.

Saturday Afternoon1

Saturday afternoon temperatures rise
into the triple digits
sending locals into cool homes
and tourist into casinos.

Saturday afternoon
and I give thanks
for the inspiration
Las Vegas provides.
