I made a valiant attempt at doing my taxes this evening. I did the Turbo Tax thing today and I have to say that it is really wonderful, IF you have all the stuff you need.
For instance.....I took some college classes last year and I was supposed to get some 498-T-1037-IRS-BS form. WTF? I have no clue what they are talking about! So I call a pal that works at the college and she says "Sure you can get that online! I'll send you the link in an e-mail." Super! Would have been nice if I know this before I started, but whatev. So now I have more IRS BS to contend with and I am not at all going to let it suck the life out of me like I am sure the good folks at H&R Block would if they had the opportunity. I went through the whole thing with an "estimate" just to get an idea of what type of refund I would get, right? Well, I was insulted. How do you get to claim all this s**t on your taxes and get ABSOLUTE CRAP back? I must have done something wrong. So I guess I'll go find all the 1089-09853-**F$%$$#ing forms and start over.
I know the IR-flipping-S does this on purpose. Wankers.
But, I am not going to flip out. I am going to take a deep Zen-like breath and begin anew.....
Just as soon as I get the top secret 1098462-888-666-T5 F%$#ing form.
Tip: Get all the top secret forms you need ahead of your easy-peasy Turbo Tax session, if the government will let you.
Going A-filing.....
