Yesterday was the "last" day of tax season.. in that extensions for personal and corporation returns were due. While I'd love to say I can now breathe until January.. there's still an extension due date for estates & exempt organizations, so bleh.

But my dad realized his spreadsheet had an error and it turns out I've been having WAY too much taken out of each paycheck, so the rest of the year I'll have a little boost, which will go a good way to paying off the credit card bill that's been hanging over me like Eeyore's little black cloud since Stig crapped out the first time.

Not to say all of it has been Stig. I've been doing a lot of retail therapy the last few years, to get through life. But I've really been trying to rein it in, which is a LOT easier now that my happy place is no more *raises a glass for Joanns*

Now, the point of the post:

I love when Taylor releases a new album, because it means I get almost a month of Taylor 13 on SiriusXM. Yes, I have all her albums on iTunes.. but there's just something about the radio shuffling for me. No other artists sprinkled in; JUST TAY-TAY.

One of the bumpers caught my attention the other day (while sitting in traffic), as a gal called herself "a Rep girlie" and Steve went HOLD ON. In about a minute, I'd starting assigning Red vs Blue characters albums like a Hogwarts house.

Anyway...

I'm hoping that now that things have cooled off a little at work, I can put some focus into a good spring cleaning of the apartment and a massive backlog of 1_million_words* and writerverse prompts. Also maybe get back to cleaning up the external harddrives and the HTML here on LJ/DW. We'll see...

All right, back to work. I love all your faces ♥

* DW 1MW is only a backup. New posts are made on LJ. Also, this weekend is my weekend for the weekend challenge, if you want a free prompt. ;)

But a quickie update:
+ saw TRON:Ares last night. I have little interest in Jared Leto, but I really enjoyed the movie. I hope it does well because LORD, the smattering of teases at the end.
+ saw Amy Bruni live and in person, last week, with bizarra. It was a lot of fun aside from the lady sitting next to me who wouldn't stop grumbling about everything.
+ please don't be one of those people and leave your tax return stuff to the very last $*@) minute. It's really annoying and some of us have to bring work home to try and get it done ASAP ahead of the 10/15 deadline. [stares at two clients in particular]
+ zero fundraising progress has been made for Princess. It's partly on me, because I don't fundraise; but also the person who was supposed to be handling my portion of the incentives hasn't yet put any of my incentives up. I don't want to back out.. but I'm about to just let the team have my $200 and just be cheerleader.

Anyway...

I had to go back and actually tag all the fanfic back to 2007 because for some reason, I never actually made a fanfic tag. Also the last time I wrote/posted fanfic was August 2021. That's depressing... DX

I just went down the line, newest to oldest until I ran out. I also skipped drabble collections and "chapter" titles of the longer stories. (( Also, as a joke, I seriously considered trying to fill this out with just Tin Man fics. XD ))

Since 'A' and 'The' don't count, I considered using one of those for a Q, but then decided against it. So, out of 707 fanfics, I got a 23 24 .

EDIT: LJ wasn't showing me all the entries witht he tag, but I found another way to see the older posts and found a Q!
