Tomorrow is tax day, and I almost forgot to file my state taxes. I forgot even though I've been daily telling the public about why they do. not. need. the stimulus packet, if they're filing federal taxes and that no, they cannot have fifty-two copies of the state tax forms (in case they make mistakes) but they can have ONE and they'd better say Thank You for it (and mean it) because nowhere else in town has the forms, including the IRS office.
I forgot my own state taxes, because I filed my federal taxes in January. January was the Month of Financial Responsibility, so I read (part of) a Suze Orman book on finances and opened up a special investment account (with which I do not invest) and filed my federal taxes. And then it was February and all thoughts of tax preparation left my head. Fortunately, I remembered about the state taxes this weekend and completed and submitted them, even though this is the Month of Laziness and Illness. Now I'm eagerly awaiting my big state tax refund of, no joke, $3.00. Yay.

At least Utah is giving you something back. Illinois is greedy greedy greedy and they can't even balance their silly budget. Not to mention our crazy guv'nor.
i wish i could participate in the month of laziness (i don't want the illness part) but i have way too much to do. blech!
I am too embarrassed to admit this on my own blog but I didn't file my taxes until yesterday. So, so sad.
Happy Librarian's Day!
If you invest that three dollars I will be sad--blow it all on one really big purchase. I don't know what but you can figure something out, I have confidence in you.
Chou--True. I should not complain, since I don't have to pay. AND at least I don't have city taxes like I did in IN.
Ann-Marie--Laziness and Illness is actually the unofficial month being celebrated. I'd tell you what the actual month is, except that everyone keeps interpreting it in a risque way
and it's not.
Yankee Girl--Did not even know that today is librarians day. Why is the library open!?
Eliana--I will live it up with my $3. Maybe I'll splurge and buy the cinnamon bread in addition to my regular wheat.
