Today, I prepared my taxes!

I thought I was going to have to do the installment plan, for the Fed and state taxes, but no!!! I'm actually going to get a REFUND from the Fed's and have to pay 179 to the state. This is the first time I have gotten a refund since I was 25! I have checked my figures twice, and they are coming out the same. So, the plan is, to pay the state and call up the various credit card people and get on payment plans. Also call up the college loan people and see if I can get on a hardship deferment.

On the plus side, I called up the auto loan people and I only have $145.00 left to pay on the car. After that, I can devote the car payment to paying the credit card bills.

I have very high blood pressure right now. I keep getting dizzy. I have taken my last Antentol, but only one pill. Really, it's just a placebo. I'll be better off taking aspirin, but I'm out.

Today is the day, my friend Bob should get on his knees and say a prayer for his great aunt. You see Bob's family emigrated from Ireland. . . .by ship. Guess which one they were suppose to come on? The Titanic! But his great aunt (Mary?) had the measles. Remember the beginning of Titanic where Jack is getting on, and below him is a line of people getting inspected? That's what happen. They weren't allowed to board. They came to America, via the Carpathia , and picked up survivors from the Titanic on the way. The family gave the children of Mary the tickets for the Titanic, since her measles saved them. They still have them to this day, in a bank vault in Niagara.
