Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
No fun for you, Jesse!
I don't get freaked out by doing taxes, I get freaked out by paying them. Which is why my $32 state tax waited until the last minute, but I've had my federal refund for more than a month.
No, I don't feel that makes any sense.
Moscow Museum of Architecture (I imagine a building with lots of buildings inside...) and Moscow's buildings that never got built.
Gorgeous.
No, I don't feel that makes any sense.
Eh, that makes more sense than my fellow-student friend who has been FREAKING OUT for weeks.

Well, as long as I make more sense than someone.
Hey, want to come over and make me waffles?

No, I don't feel that makes any sense.It makes tons of sense, financially speaking (as opposed to freak speaking). It is more sensible to file for any refunds due you as soon as possible, and delay paying any tax you owe, until the last moment before you'll have to start paying interest, or be otherwise fined or penalized.

I can swallow the interest on $32. What'd have made more sense was to get it taken care of before the 15th, instead of realising that there's no way to e-file on the 15th and mail on the 15th with all the right paperwork. I should have e-filed right away, and then waited to send the cheque. As is, I've sent a jumble of paperwork, and we'll just have to cross our fingers.

Sure!
No, crap, I have to transcribe tapes.
Yeah, I thought I was going to have that problem, but fortunately New Mexico let me direct deposit. Err, the problem of checks-in-the-mail, that is, not chocolate as sacrament. I don't think there's a direct deposit for that.
In my earlier and more paranoid days, I would be convinced that the very act of doing so would put my bank account on some sort of state agency watch list. Now I am just lazy, and figure, probably everyone else is too, and if they have the energy to monitor citizens bank accounts, then, good luck to them.
I am a bad, slacking conspiracy theorist.
I think people freak out about their taxes because it is their only form of interfacing with their government, and thereby, intimidating.
Rio, this is the reason we have a Ministry. If it's death to the stupid people, give Sean a call. Or, if it's a slight maiming, contact AmyParker. If it's a smite-ing well, I can oblige.
"Smite" was one my my vocabulary words for my class' last test Wednesday. I got the following sentence from one of my students:
"When Lucy and Bob fought, they got in a smite fight. Lucy won."
I had to count it wrong, but I nearly peed myself laughing. I also got a couple of quotes from Bruce Almighty: "Smite me, you almighty smiter!"
I gave credit for that, since they used quotes and gave citations.
Freshmen are FUN-ny.
I am fascinated by how freaked-out people get about doing their taxes. I mean people who are my peers in not owning property, not having kids, not making much money.
I fit all those categories. And I only had 10 employers in 2 states this year!
oh, and
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DREW !!!
