Taxes are Evil

That pretty much covers it.  I’m trying to gather up all the paperwork I’ll need to do my taxes this year.  Most likely I’ll be paying someone for that honor, but they’ll still need all the paperwork.  I’ve done a horrible job of keeping everything this year, and it’s going to bite me in the [...]
