Breaking out of the spiral ...
I'm doing much better, thank everything. The show's becoming an actual show, which is nice, although it's 10 out of 12 today and it's gonna be looooooong. Yar. But I like the work, and the cast and crew, so far, rock my socks. Plus, the musical's pretty cool.
So, that whole tax issue that I emoed about the other day? Yeah. That was a combination of me being tired and reading email at 2 in the morning and my mother wording things in emails very badly. Basically, she wrote me an email that said "I hope you can pay your taxes when you get them; we have to find a way to pay $2000+ in the next week." I took that to mean we as in she and I because I owe a ton of money for some mysterious reason. She actually meant I have to find the $130 I owe, because she and my stepdad owe $2000+ in taxes this year.
I blame her. XD
Needless to say, I called her to panic at her the next day and she promptly started laughing at me ... After which I relievedly laughed at the entire situation. It turns out I do have to pay some (admittedly, it looks like a LOT less after living a day under the threat of somehow paying two grand), but I'm gonna get, like, 700 back, so I come out on top in the end. Which is sweet. So crisis very much averted.
Otherwise, everything's sort of settling back to good. I hope everyone else is doing well, because things are starting to look up. Yesterday wasn't that great, but hey, it was better than owing $2500 to the feds.
Oh, and Obama's starting to look like he might just be pulling ahead in PA possibility. W00T.
