Done

My taxes are done and filed. I should have a refund check in my account by end of next week at the latest. Yeah, I hear some of you "smart" people griping that one should be prudent and not loan the government their money during the year. Check your deductions, 401k contribution, etc. I was cautious last year. With a company change I was, as the family would say, "taken care of". Thus I made sure I wasn't going to be forking over mad money come April.

I even did my taxes sober this year. Er, at least most of the time. I did have a beer or two in the beginning. Used TurboTax online again this year. Extremely easy. If you are not using something like this to do your own taxes, then you are wasting time and money. I dumped an accountant for this product and I am glad I did. Granted if he was an extreme accountant finding every tiny thing I could write off (e.g. trips to Vegas) then I wouldn't have gone with TT. But he was too conservative. I can do this stuff myself now and decide if I want to consider the Excalibur poker room to be a dependent or not.

I am coming up on one of those other timely things I dread. Lately after working out, I notice I have "mad man" hair. All over the place. I would be perfect for a mug shot at the Smoking Gun. All wild and crazy looking. But that won't be a concern of mine after March 1. I may miss it. No crazy mug shot like hair.

Speaking of mug shots... Some stripper clubs got busted in the Tampa area again. They have 25 shots of the ladies up. Gentlemen, you may want to bookmark this page in case you are heading down to Florida and would like some entertainment. Consider this a menu at some of the establishments. After viewing them, consider it more like a fast food menu. These are some ugly chicks! You may want to avoid these establishments.
