I managed to not wait until the very last minute to do my taxes this year, and I filed them Sunday, a whole eight days early! Back when I was in school, I’d wait until the very last day to do any kind of assignment. How far we’ve come.
The process of filing taxes is so painful. Even with TurboTax and all of its auto-importing magic. There’s still a whole bunch of items you have to check off. How does anyone do this without tax software? Even with the software, I feel like I have to guess at some things. Thank goodness I don’t have to directly fill in those boxes labelled 37a and whatnot.
Like the past few years, this year I again had to pay the federal government money. Over $2500! I could’ve bought something with that. Something cool. My reward for filling out all that tax stuff was a big payment to the government. Aren’t taxes fun?
