Nice! I'm planning on giving part of mine to whoever is the Dem nominee.
Ooh! Maybe I'll go to Mexico. We hate the Mexicans now, right?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
How pathetic is it that I'm super relieved that my minion just put in a leave request for July? (If I were her, I would be looking for a new job already, since she's been here just about a year.)

You know, I would love to move back there, except that I'd be even poorer due to the tanking dollar.

I just realized California didn't take out any social security taxes. What's that about?

I have to file an emended return, since I did a Child Care Reimbursement Accpunt and got a work subsidy for child care, and you're not supposed to do both. Did HR mention this? Nope. Did TurboTax notice this and mention it? Nope. Corporate Payroll caught it just now. 15 months after I started doing it. (Actually I did it in 2006, too, but Corporate Payroll did not notice, and neither did the Feds, so don't tell them.)
I hate the fucking taxes. So much hassle and stress. Even though right now I get all the $$ back, I still hate it.

This is why, as soon as I was able, I started paying someone to do mine. So worth it to me. Plus it's not like H&R Block or anything, it's a one-guy & his wife CPA operation. And he does taxes/accounting stuff for a bunch of people I know and he knows me and will figure out if there is any, say, band-related stuff I can deduct in a given year.

The only time I paid someone to do my taxes (since normally, they are pretty easy and it's almost never worth it to me to itemize) was 2 years ago when I had to file in CT, MD, NY, and VT. The CPAs certainly didn't save me any money given what I paid them and I had to check everything anyway, so I'm not really sure it saved me much time, except I didn't have get all the different forms myself.

Yeah, I only started using my accountant after I bought my house and could start itemizing.
