Ides of July

I finally got my tax records together over the Independence Day weekend and uploaded them to my accountant. I just could not drag myself to do the necessary because this government is so demoralizing—even though we had an extra three months to file, this was the latest I’ve been at hawking up the documents.

Well, Friday they told me I’m getting a modest refund from both the feds and the Confederate Commonwealth of Virginia. I was so burned by the liability in 2018 that I might have over-withheld when I started my new job in September.

You just can’t win with these clowns, but at least it’s over now. 

Until it starts again in [checks calendar] six months.
