Okay, i am just getting settled in to watch the new Lost, but I have to share my silly little bit of good fortune.  I took the day off of work today because I had an appointment to get my taxes done right in the middle of the day.  Not a great time for an appointment, but if you consider that my CPA sets up his appointments a year in advance...  I'll take what I can when I get it.  He's magic and completely legal.  He worked for the IRS for 20 years before starting his own business.  Most of the people that I work with go to him because he is fabulous.  People who used to pay taxes, get money back because of him.  I will get about $3000 back this year.  It would be really nice if it would come prior to ORC, because if it did, hello trip to Cali!  However, I usually do not get the money any earlier than April.  Don't you just love the government?  They want you to pay on time, but they do not feel the need to do the same.  That's just frustrating.

After finding out that I will get back some money from my taxes, I went shopping with my mother.  I tried on several things, and started getting down in the dumps because nothing fit right.  (I have a petite-size height, but not weight.)  Then, I found the exact pair of shoes that I had been wanting.  I have been on a quest for comfortable black bootlets.  I found them, just sitting on a bench by the shoe rack discarded.  They were originally $80, and I got them for $15!  They are simple in design, but elegant.  They are, as far as I am concerned, perfect.  I shouldn't be so giddy about a pair of shoes, but I am.  What can I say?  I'm a total shoe slut!  I

BTW, does anyone else watch Bones?  I loved tonight's episode with Stephen Fry as a therapist!  He was a British version of Mr. Miyagi.  I fell in love with him when I saw Peter's Friends and have loved him ever since!  It made me do a double take to see him on that show!
