Some people are little bitches. Sack the fuck up

Well, all I had to do is bitch about it...the approval email just came through a few minutes ago!

I don't think that strategy is going to work for you, though.

Taxes.

I mean, mine are done, and I understand the whole civic responsibility thing, but how does it make any (censored) sense to punish people who outright own their homes, instead of having a mortgage? Given that I sold the house I'd purchased with my then-husband, found this house and managed to come out ahead enough in the transaction to buy it outright and eliminate my mortgage, you'd think that I'd be happy. No, not so much, not now, since I can't take the mortgage credit any more.

My financial adviser mentioned this in passing when I bought this house, but I kind of blew him off. I regret that now.

Also, the redefinition of "high-income" households changed somewhere in the past couple of years, and yes, even though I know it was a Democratic initiative to lower the threshold for the definition of a "high-income" household, it still (censored)es me off.

Upshot is, between suddenly being defined as a "high-income" household and the loss of the mortgage tax credit, I ended up, for the first time in my life, actually writing a cheque to the IRS. Ugh.

Welcome to my world Jen....7500 bucks today.

Well, the cheque I had to write out wasn't quite that much, but still...the shock of going from always receiving a refund of some type to writing a freaking cheque out to the IRS/U.S. Treasury just sucks six ways to Sunday.

Unless I go out and get myself knocked up this weekend, which is totally something that occurred to me, there's no way I could produce another tax credit before the end of this year, meaning my 2016 taxes are going to be as bad or worse. Worse, probably.

Sounds like someone is learning a valuable lesson in why not to support the Democrat party...

$250k a year is NOT "rich", President Obama.

Sigh.. Alas, you are correct.

Chinese CRAP light fixtures. None of the mounting holes line up with a standard box.

On the way home from work the entire contents of my cooling system dumped out. I don't know yet if it was a hose, or water pump yet.

Probably a hose, water pumps usually trickle. Doesn't sound like it was a trickle.

Lol, you guys. Open up a business then talk to me about taxes. I pay the .gov 5 times a year.

Bedridden yesterday with the worst stomach bug I've ever had. At least able to be upright today, but body still aches like hell and anything I eat hurts the stomach. God damn I hate being this sick!

Watching the Alone season two chosen people, and I was not one of them. I can quit in 48 hours like they can. Sometimes it sucks not being crazy enough to be selected for Alone, or other survival/prepper shows. Or should that be a good thing?
