Dooms Day

April 15, 2008 |

I just finished filing my taxes. My state taxes. The federal ones were submitted months ago because they brought with them a hefty return. We can always use some extra money for luxuries like heating oil and gasoline (stick that in your economy Mr. President).

But the state taxes were an entirely different story. They insist that we owe them money. Bastards. So in my typical avoidance fashion I waited until the absolute last moment thinking it wouldn’t hurt so much. Wrong. It was way painful.

Truth be told, I wasn’t really trying to prolong the agony - I actually forgot all about it until someone posted something about Web Turbo Tax crashing on Twitter this morning. In denial much? Is it any wonder my finances are such a mess?

    We did our taxes about 2 weeks ago. Don sent a check to the local taxes (1%). And we’re done. But we have to pay estimated taxes 4 times a year. I hate those.

    yeah we were similar. feds give us crap loads of money because we are poor, then when we get it, we turn around and pay it to our state who takes as much as they can… our state actually takes more per paycheck than the fed, too.
