Taxes Again

I just finished doing and filing my taxes and Brandy’s taxes. It is much better than the last few years, but being taxes, it still blows. Each of us will be getting a small refund this year. Although Brandy will get actual money, while mine will be applied toward what the IRS thinks I still owe them for the 2004 tax year. An amount that if my proof wasn’t in some box in storage somewhere, I would have already proved I really didn’t owe because it is all due to my employer from that year reporting certain amounts on the wrong forms and then refusing to correct it once the error was pointed out to them.

Oh well. At least it didn’t come out that I owed a five figure amount like happened originally with the 2004 taxes. That really sucked.

This time it is just the usual suckage of realizing that even after all deductions and such, the Federal government stole 18.59% of the money I made in 2006. Bastards. I *know* I could make better use of the cash than Congress and W could. Harumpf.
