"Courage is not the towering oak that sees storms come and go; it is the fragile blossom that opens in the snow.”
Alice M. Swaim
I had a bad day...Remember the post I wrote earlier in the week about how BROKEN we are as a Country, especially the Government ? It turns out the IRS is beyond broken...They had the nerve to send me a Bill today for unpaid taxes. ( Yes, earlier this month I blogged how I was going to be getting a rebate in July sometime). Well, another office is very very confused and says I owe them....I don't ...I paid them...But there is nothing worse than getting an IRS envelope, and thinking Yahoooo there will be a check...and instead finding a BILL with Penalties ( yes, FEES...and Thousands of dollars??!?!?!?!, yeah like a single mom makes that kind of money???? I have paid every cent that was owed all these years, I have never ever owed or not paid...so I am beyond furious) I think the fact that my head did not explode is remarkable....And then it stormed all afternoon....I sat and watched crappy movies and drank a liter of Max Diet Pepsi.....and cursed......I have ALL my paperwork...so you KNOW what I will be doing this week, I will be sharing my paperwork AGAIN ( including the cancelled checks)....BIG SIGH.....For tonight...I am going to listen to some music....and try to calm the pulsing sound in my head....Have a good night....
EXTRA EXTRA:::: THE FIRST SNL IS ON TONIGHT, YES THE EPISODE WITH GEORGE CARLIN....
Jody Watley singing "Borderline"....Perfect smokey song for after the storm...
