I Did Something New This Year

I did something new this year, instead of doing my my tax return on line and sending it over cyberspace I filled out a hard copy and am going to send it snail mail. Doing my own tax return isn't new, I've did them myself for the past two years. The new thing is doing the hard copy and using the postal system to send it in.

The returns are done, in the envelops and ready to mail. I'll take them to the post office tomorrow between morning job training and afternoon chemical peel. Oddly enough I'm not stressing out over the returns. I figure if the Internal Revenue Service wants more information they will contact me. It's not like I'm difficult to get hold of, True I spend most of my days on-line using a phone hook-up to the Internet, but I do get off line to eat, clean the cat litter and go to the bathroom (not necessarily in that order or at the same time).

I have an answering machine to take messages when I'm not home or answering the phone. Contrary to popular opinion, I do eventually get back to people who leave both a polite message and a phone number. Sometimes I even get back to people who leave an impolite message and a phone number.
