Two Form 720 tests are in and good. Much less wrestling this time than with the 1040 set, so far. 3rd 720 test wants a scanned document so I'm procrastinating and need a break in the action.

Here we have the definition of the “in-offensive” videogame. Soul blazer is a short, sweet, and generally pleasant game that focuses on raising questions about life as well as the after-life rather than challenging the player. Underneath the rather silly translation –people are defeated instead of killed, as if this were some kind of duel – is a thought-provoking experience coupled with one of the better soundtracks in an SNES game.

In what could be considered a spin-off of Actraiser, ...

It seems that everyone waited to do their weekly shopping today and took Saturday for free time to do other things. Meh, that's not my problem now.

This is.

Everything else will be in the Weekender post. I am writing this beforehand, so I cannot provide a direct link. I guess I can edit it in later or something.

Hands up.

Another unmentioned error found. Was scheduled to be home later than the contact would be in, so approval awaits for Tuesday. I'll be lucky if I have this finally resolved by March.

Pointless busy work Thursday. IRS response indicates another error which I managed to make that nobody noticed until now. Hooray for another week gone by without concrete progress.

In that at least. I've had a few increases here, I guess.

Still no IRS response - this is three days, now. I don't know if I should expect good news or bad for it being this long of a delay. Meanwhile, I have begun with the Regex development phase for my next set of forms, so hopefully soon I'll be testing that batch out.

And up.

Out for pizza today for the holiday. The place offered heart shaped pizzas through today, so we thought that perhaps this year we would finally be able to get one. Place the order after asking some questions and got the normal circle instead. Oh well, maybe next year.

Rock out with your cock out.

Fire consume my fingertips - lambda burst. I made a point to not strain myself doing stuff over the weekend and to sleep longer. I hope it pays off, as I'm tired of slothing it up for 12 hours on Mondays.

Super music start.

Winter temperatures have finally arrived here. We have been spoiled this year. Doesn't change the fact that despite currently wearing three layers of clothing on my upper body, my fingers still feel very cold. I get that it is winter and that winter is cold but come on already; my skin shouldn't feel so frigid with this much on.

Warm me up, warmup course.

Feel like crap. Dinner doesn't seem to be sitting very well, and I feel like I have acid or gas buildup which won't go away. IRS response did come and I still have three returns with errors. The person said that he anticiaptes me passing the full regiment soon, which I think is about as encouraging as I could ask for, but I still feel like crap about it. Let's see if I can whine more in the next hour or so.

CPE course purchased. I should have done so when I bought the Lasser book. Resubmitted test returns with adjusted information, and have no response. The wheel turns.

As does this.

IRS response has come and the result is - not very good. Granted, there were more returns which I did correctly than didn't, and a few of the issues raised was over a few dollars because of a difference in determining tax liability (schedule versus tables), but I can't help but feel disappointed in the first result. I will rectify the errors over the course of the night but I can't say I'm thrilled at not having as much confidence in my product as I would have originally perceived.
