Death and Taxes

Today I discovered that someone had put some M&Ms in the cube next to me. Turns out that there are not only M&Ms but also some kind of giant Reece's Pieces. It was an exciting discovery.

So the other day I was doing my taxes. Why would someone do their taxes in July? Good question. What the hell is the state thinking? I had to go digging for my 1040 form and find my W-2. Apparently, this set of tax rebates requires figuring out how much non-taxable revenue, but not all because some of the non-taxable revenue doesn't count and it's up to me to guess which does and does not count, I need to include to figure out how much I'm owed. If it wasn't worth a couple hundred dollars, I wouldn't bother with this crap. Why couldn't they require this stuff be done when all the other tax stuff is due in April? Stupid government.
