Taxes: An angry rant...

Seriously.... Why does anyone go through all the trouble and aggravation of filing these stupid moratoriums, anyway? I mean, when all is said and done, you get a big fat disappointment in the form of a check that is less than you were expecting and with which you can do practically nothing! Plus you have to pay the people who do your taxes for you and there goes another $200 that you really needed... I mean, come on!!! And gods help you if you actually prepare your own taxes!! I mean, have you looked at these forms lately? Add lines 36, 37, 38, 41, and 42 and if the total is less than line 37, subtract so-and-so amount... Geez! You need a damned degree just to read the stupid thing... What gives? Do they make it that confusing on purpose? Are they making it completely unintelligible simply so that they can punish(audit) those who can't afford to pay a firm to do their taxes? This seems completely unfair and downright mean, to me. Does it seem like this to anyone else? Ok. My ranting is done. Yes I just filed my taxes today, for the first time ever and I was NOT expecting this paper bombardment for a lousy less than a grand. But Hey, I should be happy I am getting that back, right? I mean, I could owe taxes, which would suck... So I guess I cam out ahead in the end, and that's all right with me.

Love you Dad. How come you didn't warn me about taxes? LOL-

End of the month....

Has anyone else ever noticed that, no matter how much you buy at the beginning of the month, you always seem to run out of EVERYTHING just before the end? I HATE that. It seems to make the last bit of the month drag by... Ok. Sorry. Yellow onion story there, but it was something that had been on my mind as of lately... Love You Daddy!

Thanks to my Dad...

I have finally decided to start my own blog. I don't know if mine will be as satirical or as poignant, but I can assure you that there will be plenty of my opinions, and should you happen to find any of them funny, it was completely accidental. I love you, Dad. I hope you get to read this.
