Two Grand?

Screw the stimulus package, give me my refund. I actually received my W-2 last week. And surprisingly all my other investment/banking people have sent me statements for all the other crap I need. So I started doing my taxes only to discover I need to fill out Schedule C, but you can't fill out Schedule C without filling out Schedule SE and you can't fill out Schedule SE without first completing Form 8809 and 8870 or something. I'm sure to fill those two forms there will be more forms to fill out. I'm giving up and paying to have my taxes done. It should not be this difficult to report $2000 worth of income.

Especially since, according to my rough calculations, that's exactly what the government owes me.

In other news, I have my sheets out on the line today. Yay for fresh air and sunshine.
