Holy Crap! I got my Tax Refund already!

It’s amazing due to how quickly the government wants the money you owe them but they never seem to be in a hurry to pay you back. Ever since I got married, I stopped doing my taxes in a hurry since we often came out in the red. Why? I don’t know really. Then divorce managed to punch me in the throat one more time since that was a grand I wasn’t getting back and I made an error in 2018, another $3000 I received no help with despite filing jointly; the excuse I got was, she didn’t get her first $1200 stimulus, as if I could do anything about this!

Anyway, I really kept kicking it down the road as I’m tackling other jazz in my life. Thanks to the Winterpocalypse caused by GOP incompetence, Texans were given a one-time filing deadline of June 15. Yes, everything is BIGGER in Texas, including the procrastinating and delaying…see ERCOT and its stupid decision to be its own electrical grid.

This morning I got to see the humongous refund in my checking account. A whopping 261 smackers! Just in time to stimulate the economy for a second as it is destroyed by inflation. Nah. I used part of it to pay off the tax software since the douchenozzles at Intuit will eat another $40 if you want to use part of your refund to cover it. TurboTax is nowhere close to being worth $100, hell, the $600 it costs is questionable. The remainder goes back into my Rainy Day/Vegas fund.

Fingers crossed there isn’t another rude letter in late Summer.
