Taxes are not as fun when you don't over pay to begin with

So I just filed my taxes. Which were very quick and I totally
appreciate that. But total it was $70 to prepare and file federal and
state plus $42 I owed because I had my withholding allowances high for
the last two months of the year (ps taxes start looking huge when you
go back to paying them).

On the upside, the ... "City"..."district"?... "Principality"? Can't
figure what it is and I have been here for over 3 years! DC owes me
some money back, so I still came out ahead of the game. But it is hard
not to feel irritated with the expense for the privilege of paying
taxes.

Taking the metro tomorrow. My tax dollars at work. :)
