Sounds like a way to make gin vaguely palatable...

I think I need something stronger for Tax Day, maybe an Irish Coffee with Everclear instead of whiskey, and Irish Cream instead of regular cream. But then, Taxes are particularly suck-y right now, and with my eldest cat so sick (he died yesterday) I just said "f*ck it" and paid two sets of tax bills (with penalties) for my business which (had I contested 'em) I might've been able to get halved... Between Bjorn's being terminal and all the work for NorWesCon next weekend and LepreCon two weeks after, I just didn't want ONE MORE DAMN THING to stress over and have to WORK on. Better to SETTLE and be able to put all that crap away, and spend time snuggling Bjorn-cat in his last hours instead of searching five-year-old financial records...

Would you have that because you have completed your income tax and sent it off in time?

YAY!

I love your icon. *g* It always amazes me how good some men can look in laces, ruffles and an athwartship bicorn.

Tax?! *hides*

How sober were you when you decided you didn't owe any? :-)
