I did my taxes!

Amongst other things that were much, much more fun, I did my taxes this weekend. Someone told me about a site that helps you figure out what you need to file for, and does all the work for you for $15. This is probably a similar cost to buying the software, but I'm still glad I chose to use the site. It was super fast, and they have a whole system of 'alerts' letting you know if you are being inconsistent or have done something wrong. State and federal can be filed at once, and you can even e-file and arrange direct deposit. Good news-my refund is enough for an i-pod. Better news-I'm being mature and using it to pay down my credit card instead. Good for me.
