Entry: tax day Tuesday, April 15, 2008



hope you all did your taxes and turned them in a timely manner.  i did my federal and state in march and finished my city tax last night.  i was contemplating skipping the city tax all together since it came out to a whopping zero dollars but figured i better file a return to be on the safe side.  the plus side of working outside the county i live in is paying no city tax, not that it would've amounted to much. 

went apartment hunting all day saturday.  i must admit i was a brat by complaining about my current apartment when i first saw it.  i didn't like the location or the look of it.  i still don't like the location but have come to deal with it.  i guess i was just having a hard time coping with the fact that the apartment was brand spanking new or that i had to go to a laundry building attached to my apartment building.  it was also hard for me to go from living at my cousin's nice house to a 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment.  was i being a spoiled brat?  absolutely.  i just couldn't understand why people who have come to our apartment said it was so nice.  i kept saying it was "eh". 

that thought changed real quick after looking at a handful of apartments.  the first one vic and i looked at had the tiniest closet i have ever seen.  there was no way i could fit a third of my clothes in the closet.  i even considered getting a rolling clothing rack but would not have the room in my room for it.  i know vic likes the apartment a lot but i'm iffy about how to store my clothes.  all the apartments vic and i looked at didn't have a washer dryer in the apartment which sucks.  some had a "laundry facility" which usually consisted of one dryer and one washer for the entire complex.  my apartment has two washers and two dryers for every 6 apartments.  there was one apartment that i really liked because it had big rooms and big closets.  the only bad thing i see is that it would make my one commute about an hour long.  i definitely come to appreciate my huge room, big closet, personal bathroom, laundry facility, and nice neighbor that i got to know while living where i'm at currently.  i definitely took for granted all that i have now and will miss it when i move this summer.

work still gets me down.  if only i didn't have to worry so much about productivity or some of my entitled clients requesting i do this or that for them.  it just makes me not excited about work.  thankfully, today was really busy to make up for my lack luster day yesterday.  here's hoping to a busy week so administration can lay off me for a bit!

so in the last entry i wrote about how i was excited about my birthday gift to myself.  i was extremely excited to get them and wear them asap since i thought i wouldn't need to get them hemmed since they are petite jeans.  wrong.  the petite jeans were still too long for me and now i have to get them hemmed.  it's pretty sad when petite jeans are still too long for me.  i knew i was short but didn't think i was that short.

time for bed!

have faith.
