Taxes, argh

[selenite0]

Got our taxes done this weekend. As the dust settles from buying the house I owe feds about a grand from cashing in the IRA to make a down payment. Then I discovered Northrop has been withholding California taxes the whole time I've been in Texas. Apparently I'm so used to CA taking money from me that I never noticed those lines on my paystubs for the past six months. I was very relieved when I found out the company will give me the money back instead of making me go wrestle the California tax people for it. So it looks like I'll have a net gain from being an idiot.
