I planned on spending the day at the library reading and studying to figure out what to do with our stocks.
As I walked in, I saw a group of homosexuals swooning at pictures of other men on the computer. The next table had young men playing video games on the computer.
And I thought people went to the library to actually learn something…I am so out of touch!
As I headed for an empty table in the corner, I saw a table against the wall covered with tax forms.
I thought, “Why do they still have those out? I can’t believe that they haven’t put those away! It’s August…15th!!!”
Then it hit me. Today is the deadline to file taxes for those people who filed for an extension. I happen to be one of them.
When it came tax time back in April, we couldn’t find Cake’s W-2’s…
so I had to file for an extension.
All this month, I kept reminding myself that the date was approaching. Yet, somehow, a week still mysteriously vanished. One day, it was August 7th and the next day was the 15th! How does that happen?
So, the day at the library went out the window. I hurried home, found her tax information, opened up Turbo Tax, finished in time to print the returns out, pick her up from work so she could sign her returns and get to the post office 10 minutes before it closed!
I sure am glad that those library people were so far behind in their work!
