tax day

What a week! Today is April 15th. All my clients were on edge today, several talking about how they had procrastinated up until the last minute in paying their taxes. Taxes in the best of circumstances are not a joyful expense, but this year, paying them is especially painful. I, too, have put this off. I woke up today intending to print them out and send them during a break at work. And then the printer would not work. I muttered my incantations to the mechanical devas and went to work. When I got home, the printer was working again, but after spitting out a few pages, it ran out of ink. Even my machines don't want to cooperate with this bloody regime.
