Oh Pix, I am feeling your pain right now. DH had a contracting gig and, even with the withholding from both our jobs, our taxes are ugly this year. Sigh. Oh well.
I'm so sorry to hear that, Burrell. It is definitely of the suck. The amount we are supposed to have mailed as of tomorrow is terrifying, especially if you count the first estimated tax payment for 2011 that we are supposed to send. Ahahahahahahaha. So not happening. At this point we are just hopeful that we can pay this year's off before next year's hit for reals. Sigh, oh well, indeed.
Pete *and* The Infamous BlueJay? The bits that aren't spent awkwardly trying to order will be hilarious seeing how much we can freak out Pete.
I need a "You-are-sick-and-tired-of-Throat-Coat herbal and decaf tea sampler" at home. Or to stop coughing. Really the latter would be awesome.
Ugh Pix. At least I don't have to worry about paying quarterly this year. Although now that I think of it, that's how we got in this mess this year.
Cass, my DH seconds Steph's recommendation of the Tessalon pearls. Or if you have a sore throat spray, try that. I find the brief numbing of my throat can often quell the coughing when codeine can't.

I think I do have some of that. I hate it, so I try to hide it. Since it's just from myself, I am less than effective.
Blech.
Going to look now. It really will help.
Nope, I got rid of it. I'll get some more tomorrow if I am still tickly.
I did find cherry-flavored vitamin C drops. Those'll do.
Just got some First Steps videos of my niece from my sister.
OK, my auntie brain is going
"awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww! eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
My smartass brain is laughing until I cry. I'll confess, it's dominant. Hey, I've had it a lot longer. The kid looks hammered. She and her dad were out on a bender -- he's out cold, she's still rollin'.
She's a cute friendly drunk though. So that's nice.
It's an SNL sketch wating to happen: Baby aa
Seconded! Happy Birthday Bonny!
