Rainy day is good for cooking. I made mac and cheese for dinner tonight, plain for mac, with hot dogs and veggies for me. Cream pasta sauce for me for later this week. Salad for tomorrow's lunch. Jello for mac throughout the week. Rice for throughout the week. Then grilled cheese for lunch today.

We did venture out once to return things to the library, pay fine, and get another video. Video has been consumed and now we are on to homework.

So three dyas of rain huh? I HATE IT! I wonder if I can get away with telecommuting at least once.

I vote you should! I haven't gone outside (beyond the balcony) yet today. I do have to eventually, though. I left some catlitter in the trunk and I kinda need i. Sigh.

I think I need to order in pizza. It seems the right thing to do.

I forgot:

But did you hurt yourself?

Only if you count onion-induced blindness.

I did my state taxes yesterday. I broke even!

I am annoyed far more than I probably should be that after e-filing my federal taxes I apparently still have to mail something in. Not, like, a check or anything, just a form saying I e-filed. Not large with the sense-making, if you ask me.

Also, about the taxes, not to enable anyone's procrastination, but it turns out they're not actually due until Tuesday, the 17th.

Ahh. Procrastination mode enabled.

Did everyone remember to request the telephone tax refund?

I actually redid mine to include that. I was mystified by it (and frankly, too lazy to read up on it) but then my parents lectured me and abashment set in...

It's a tax that was put in place to fund the Spanish-American War.

The IRS will only be refunding Taxes paid since ~2003. It's just as well, I mean, I could never find my phone bills from 1890.

Huh. Are you sure about that? Because I e-filed and I didn't have to send anything in.

Perhaps I should phone them and find out.
