I'm doing my taxes. Would you mind keeping it down in here?

[Bouncy Ball]

Sheesh. A person can't even think with this kind of early morning Devil worshipping going on!

[progmom]

1. will you do mine, too?

:shrug:

[Bouncy Ball]

2. Uh, sundog loves ME best, he just doesn't want to hurt your feelings.

And no.

[progmom]

5. uh. why do you have to be so mean to me?

and you're wrong.

[Bouncy Ball]

6. I'm not being mean.

I'm being honest. It takes a real true friend to be honest.

I'll have a talk with sundog about stringing you and JimmyJazz along. He's such a flirt.

Sigh.

Here, here's a really patronizing hug: :hug:

;-)

[progmom]

9. i'm not either

i need to have a talk with sundog about how he doesn't want to break up with you because all your feelings of self-worth are tied up in your relationship with him. i think it's doing your psyche more harm than good, to be honest.

here's a condescending pat...

[Bouncy Ball]

15. Oh now there's no need for that because then you would just

be forcing poor sundog into a very emotionally unhealthy place: namely having to hurt your feelings and, well, rock your entire world.

I'm truly saddened to be the one to have to tell you all this. I shall self-flagellate later to make up for it.

Here's a grry face to send you a confusing mixed message: :grr:

[JimmyJazz]

23. *ahem* - Again, BB - I saw him first!

I'll fight you for him, too! Hell, I've been working out! Call skinner to arrange a cage match! I ain't a-scared a u

[yvr girl]

3. Ha. I have two weeks till mine are due.

BTW, I'm going to see GOPisEvil in Boston, missy.

[Bouncy Ball]

4. Oh like that's a big deal.

I've seen him like a gazillion times and I PMed with him for like five hours last night.

Ok not five hours.

He's a party animal, watch out.

:D

[yvr girl]

14. You BITCH

How DARE you PM my man. ;-)

:cry:

[crispini]

7. Slacker!

:P

Enjoy your midnight trip to the PO. That was always my favorite part of the procrastination ritual. Now that I have a house and get a refund, I do it early.

Hey, wouldn't you get a refund what with your little tax deduction? Ok, you really ARE a slacker. :)

[Bouncy Ball]

10. Nope, we owe a little over $300.

Which is why I do it at the last damn minute.

I don't think they take enough out of my paycheck and I even changed it last year to include MORE withholding. :shrug:

But next tax time, I will get to write off my tuition and fees, since I started graduate school this year, and that's no small chunk o' change.

[Left Is Write]

20. Psst....Bouncy...

Having to pay in is no reason to wait until the last minute to do your taxes. Get the forms filled out early; just wait to MAIL them until the last minute.

Or, if you're like me, you can drop the information off with your CPA, have the stuff get buried on his desk for six weeks, and find out after hounding the office two days in a row that he FORGOT TO DO YOUR TAXES. Then you have to get angry. Then you get even more angry to find out he charged his full fee - $275 - even though he left your stuff buried FOR SIX WEEKS AND YOU COULD HAVE HAD A REFUND BY NOW.

He's the senior partner. He has the authority to knock a little off the fee. He didn't. I'm annoyed.

Oh...wait...I'm sorry. We were talking about you, weren't we?

[Bouncy Ball]

24. GEEZ, that would ROYALLY piss me off.

:grr:

Yeah, actually I did figure the stuff sometime in February because we want to know what we're in for. So I do it in pencil, early and today I just have to sort of double check my calculations, put it in ink and get the cashier's check to send to Unka Sugah for bush's wars and new weapons to kill brown-skinned people.

I got it done now!

That really sucks about your CPA. He suckity suck sucks.

[BOSSHOG]

8. What's the rush?

[Bouncy Ball]

11. I know, right?

Well, Mr. Bouncy is already mad at me for putting it off until today.

[Bouncy Ball]

12. DAMMIT!!!! Mr. Bouncy has to sign this shit!

DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN DAMN!!!

[progmom]

13. maybe sundog will sign it for you

:evilgrin:

[Bouncy Ball]

16. He would do it in a heartbeat.

But I think Mr. Bouncy's place of employment, in Dallas, would require less gas to get to than sundog's place of employment, in NEW FREAKING MEXICO.

You silly girl.

[crispini]

18. Just fake his sig!

Or wait until he gets home and do the midnight trip to the PO. I'm telling you, it's quite the bonding experience. You get to bond with all the other slackers. :evilgrin:

[Zuni]

17. Hey this is a LIBERAL message board

Satan Worshipping goes with the territory. :P

[flvegan]

19. Did mine this morning, postmarked, keeping tissues handy.

[Bouncy Ball]

22. Care to say how much you are in for?

Mine's a touch over $300 and hey, because US bonds did so poorly last year, our daughter doesn't even owe money on her college fund!

That's both a good and a bad thing. Overall a bad thing, because it means her treasury bonds are tanking.

:-(

The highest we have ever had to pay was a little over two grand. Some weird thing happened that year or something we cashed out early, can't remember and I'm sure I've blocked it out. It was PAINFUL.

[flvegan]

26. I'm in for about $400. I had a better year than I expected, so

I'm not going to complain (though writing a $400 check always hurts, regardless).

[miss_kitty]

21. So early? Sheesh-you have until midnight

Overachiever.

[Bouncy Ball]

25. And I even figured it all in February.

Today I was just putting it in ink and doing some finalizations and double checking.

If we owe, I don't mail it until today.

And we've owed since about 2000.
