Death FROM Taxes

Stupid, stupid, stupid day.

The IRS has officially given it to me up the ass more times that my husband. That’s once for you gutterminds out there. (The IRS that is). Please tell me why I work my ass off all year so you can take 10% of my paycheck up front, and another 4% of my yearly salary in one lump sum.

Bitches.

At any rate, feeling a bit stressed as of late. Work, marriage, friends and the like. If I knew marriage would bring the tax penalty from hell, I would have lived in sin. And really, isn’t that more fun anyway?

I’m trying (whilst getting used to this new OD format) to find out if I’ve lost noters because I don’t write anymore, or because I don’t note anymore. I’m hoping it’s a little of both really. Well, I can’t promise I’m back, because this outlet just isn’t what it used to be. Really, James says it all for me in his diary anyhow, ie; Zeus. So, I just come here to read. That at least still entertains me.

Well, that’s all from me for now.

as for the taxman cometh as a thieving bastard…that’s why I just claim zero and wait for the refund. Granted, I’m probably getting hit harder than if I actually claimed My allowed and did without the yearly tax fairy droppings…but it’s easier to figure out this way. They steal 1/4 of each paycheck…and once a year it’s like I get a free month’s pay back.

afterthought: although My tax bracket is likely a bit different, as I’s po folk…heh.

I have no problem with taxes as long as they provide services, but when they pay for bullshit wars and tax cuts for the rich, while our schools and health care go down the tube I care about paying them. But then I am a huminist afterall. Damn me. 😉
