Taxes

Phew!

I think I did exactly what GD did. I had a very sizeable panic attack after thinking that I owed a LOT.

Except that I'd forgotten to subtract the adjustment from my total income. I owe $17 to Uncle Sam. Annoying to, for the first time, have to pay out. But the math error totally took the sting out of that. "17? That's better than 1700!"

Kind of like the Steel Magnolias trick. "Aw, don't cry, I don't have a tumor. I'm only gay!"
