Day 606 of 365 More.
So today I paid the federal government about $400 for the honor of having essentially been unemployed for the majority of 2007.
And people wonder why I hate both political parties of this country.
The really funny thing is, I’m getting the government kickback of $600 this year just like most people. You’d think that’d mean I could just not send in the $400 and they’d deduct it from what they’re giving me.
You’d think that, but you’d be wrong.
*sigh*
Just wait til I hit the Powerball and buy my own island. One Nation, under Mav. Indivisble. With licqor and orgies for all.
Until then I guess I go to bed, get up, go to work, and give the government more of what I earn.
We get to file our tax return, but because of a screw up (a major one) on their end, we won’t even get to see it. Alas, I feel your pain.
Ummmm, this is rather frightening:

yuck! death and taxes the only 2 things you can guarentee to experience as a human being. this shot made me laugh.
well yeah – what were you thinking? You know the government gets to play with the $400 and make money from interest off of it…..then they’ll give it back – with strings, I’m sure….
…and OMG – now THAT IS frightening – Mav & Mom both into the brown paper bags at the same time……Let me get my paper cup…..

@adayinthelife: Yeah, well on top of that, I just realized that they weren’t taking local taxes out of my check since I started this job, so that’s even more money I owe now.
@lrayholly: heh… one of thos days I guess.
@disco~stu: I’m actually working on beating the first one too…
@Babs1696: Heh… yeah, see I blame her for everything. Setting a bad example and all. 🙂
Ouch! Well, when I win the Super Lotto and become a billionare… sighs, if it only it were *that* easy. Man, I’m sorry that happened! Yikes!
Your hair should do this more often.
@adayinthelife: I’m going to win it sooner or later… mark my words!
@Jack Scoresby: heh… I don’t think that would go over all that well at work.
