Raven’s Range
Blather around a virtual range

…Super Raven!

Who, over the next 21 hours, will need to:

1. Drink coffee and have breakfast
   
2. Locate tax forms on the 15th of April
   
3. Go to the print shop to print any forms that the IRS/FTB doesn’t provide as part of their packet and/or print the standard forms if I can’t find anyone that provides them locally
   
4. Take a nap. Because even Super Ravens need to sleep before wielding tax forms.
   
5. Fill them out (actually, transcribe them)
   
6. Create a statement and print that out too
   
7. Figure out how it all gets assembled–as I’ve never flown solo on taxes before
   
8. Buy envelopes
   
9. Go to a copy shop to copy them
   
10. Get a money order
    
11. Go to Lodi post office and discover that (a) it’s closed and (b) its postage machine is broken
    
12. Return home to find out which post office is open until midnight. There’s ONE.
    
13. Drive 22 miles to the abovementioned post office. Mail them.
    
14. Drive 22 miles back. Pick up Chinese food. Eat.
    
15. Attend a lecture not gonna happen
    
16. Eat my trophy ice cream that I bought against the moment when the taxes are DONE.
    

Stay tuned for updates to this exciting annoying adventure! All because the home printer can’t handle printing these complex forms properly!
