So here I sit.

I took today off once again in order to get some stuff done around the yard. But instead, here I sit. On the phone. WIth the IRS, wondering where my damn tax amendment rebate check is. I really could use the infusion of money right about now. I was supposed to have it on the 17th of this month. Which I see has passed. So here I am on the phone again.

Oddly enough, I have called the IRS at least 6 times in the last month about this and the person on the phone has always been personable, informative and agreeable. Which really takes the sting out of it, GOD damnit, I want to be irritated with someone about this and I can't even get that satisfaction..lol

Also I have to say, when they say the wait is between 15 and 20mins, they mean it. I am back on hold but they picked up at 17mins exactly. Impressive, but I guess its not so much to expect from a gov. agency, they are supposed to do things on time right..HA!....aweful hold music, same classical suite over and over again...drives one batty.

Wow, what do you know, its still being held up...wonderful. 4 more weeks without the money? Seems likely. Figures, its always when you really NEED it.

Edit:  I forgot to Wish Sicrik a Happy Birthday.
