Nice to see you, Nilly! Have a blessed holiday.
Steph, I hadn't considered it but since you said it, it seems like a good idea.
Lots of ~ma for B, Laura.
Zoe: What's that, sir? Mal: Freedom, is what. Zoe: No, I meant what's that? Mal: Oh. Yeah. Just step around it. I think something must've been living in here.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Verizon sent me a text that they were doing something about spam calls and also iPhones are doing something but I didn't really pay attention. I don't seem to be getting many, or seeing them anyway. I do theoretically still have a landline but I'm not sure the phone is plugged in...hasn't rung in a long time...

My kids know about the buffistas and have free use of the internet but also find their parents deeply boring, as is normal for teenagers.

Heh
Brief chat with my grandboss re: stuff going on with one of my accounts that may potentially make it less of a headache in the future. We shall see. One of the things I know we tried to do before and there were problems that I'm not sure ever got resolved...well, at least I got a chance to point that out before it goes live, and maybe there's a fix I don't know about

Such has always been the case with mine too.

So the IRS is claiming I under reported income in 2018 and that I owe them almost $47K. Ha ha. Ha ha ha ha haaaaaaa.
I guess I need an accountant to help me unfuck this.

Good god! That does not sound fun at all. Unless you find a couple hundred k in the couch cushions or something.

Good god, shrift! How horrifying!
Also, REALLY? I mean, that's a lot.
I have been getting both the car-warranty and the utility-apology scam call a lot. Unfortunately because I'm now WFH and there is no way to forward our calls from the office, I have had to mostly turn off my spam-blocker.
I know it's a little thing, but having all these work people know my cell number now is going to be an unending source of annoyance in the future...
