Aha. I see the IRS now has a way to pay 1040-ES online. They probably had that for years but I never bothered to look for it before.
Second pizza this week! Must be turning into a Ninja Turtle. :) Bacon BBQ Sauce pizza from Pizza Chain in New Castle. http://t.co/9VGeXSUKBN
Faxed the Roth IRA excess contribution withdrawal form. Next two things are 2015 Q1 estimated taxes and then I’m done.
Overheard in the hallway: "Don’t feel bad. I can wait. I’ll do my kegel exercise." O.o
My old coworker at my last job would *love* to talk about her doing kegels "right now as we're talking." We could be taking about the server being down and it would inevitably come up in conversation. Like, really?? Girl, stop. - Zulema ❧ spicy cocoa tart
It’d be funny if I actually got a real verification email from Paypal or Apple but reported it as a phishing scam.
I thought about that last night when I got a verification email from Facebook that defied all of the email safety best practices. It included a "click here" link with no alternative URL or other way of verifying my account. - COMPLICATED MR. NOODLE
Winter weather advisory tomorrow?? Guess my weekend plans will have to depend on how bad that is.
Everything bagel with cream cheese at Manhattan Bagel in Wilmington. @having Might as well use this free item coupon. http://t.co/MklpkbhYDm
Overheard at Manhattan Bagel: "Is it green and orange?" "No, it’s blue and purple." Is that another dress they’re talking about? :)
Huh. Only took 10 minutes for the Federal e-file to be accepted. Now I’ll assemble the state tax return for mailing.
If I print out all supporting forms and worksheets, my Federal tax return is 155 pages! (up from around 120 pages last year)
One more walk through the tax software to see what other obscure tax credits I don’t qualify for.
The fake food props in recent geocaches were cleverer than I thought. Some folks on Instagram thought those were real.
Hardee’s WiFi network is blocking the videos on their own website! Way to go. #ohbother http://t.co/jdky76FU2N
Since AT&T GoPhone is giving me 4GB data, why even use WiFi any more? Uploading photos over LTE is fast.
Red Hook Brewery Beer-Battered Cod Fish Sandwich at @Hardees in Bear. @having Sure, let’s add more words to the name! http://t.co/QsQwYHwMrb
The other half of the Pizza Chain pepperoni pizza with white sauce, after reheating. Better the next day? Perhaps. http://t.co/wWB4QCNYH6
Reheating the other half of last night’s pizza for lunch. I still have enough on the gift card for 3 more pizzas. Maybe later this week.
Whose WiFi Is It Anyway? The show where SSIDs are made up and access points don’t matter.
Also noticed that my phone wasn’t connected to mobile data just now. What a weird #ohbother day!
Okay, I restored the router SSID and security so the other devices can connect. Not going to change the other settings until later.
Whoops. My router lost all settings. I didn’t realize I was actually connected on some other WiFi network all this morning!
There’s a lady’s name and a number on this dollar bill. I think it means someone’s doing Where’s George wrong! :P
Got a Where’s George bill from… not far away: http://www.wheresgeorge.com/b:BJzsO... #wheresgeorge
Large pepperoni pizza with white sauce from Pizza Chain in New Castle. @having http://t.co/n0o77iFujb
Minor siding repair once I got home. Also had to pick up lots of fallen branches in backyard. And so it begins...
Got a message saying that my high speed mobile data allowance increased from 2.5 to 4GB. AT&T must be feeling the heat from T-Mobile, etc :)
Chocolate frogs geocache. Finally enough daylight to get a cache after work! @ Newark, Del https://instagram.com/p...
When did ask.fm get spammers? Answered one question and got 3 spam questions right after.
Angus Three Cheese & Bacon at @Arbys in Talleyville. @having Nice day for some afternoon errands. http://t.co/jh3GIOjRYZ
Codewars times out frequently during the day now. I guess running kata tests is not very scalable. :)
I’ve run through to the end of the tax program and Federal refund is -$255, state is -$521. I don’t think I need to hurry.
Okay, the store newsletter explains it better than the email. This week is the last $5.99 Moe Monday. Next week it’s back to $7. No problem.
