happy tax day

today is the last day to file tax returns for us americans. for most people it’s just a sort of vaguely dread-filled deadline, like a final exam or a corporate presentation that you have known was coming for a long time. for me it is a happy day, because it means i get my absentee tax-preparer husband back as a spouse, a dad, a consultant, a cook, a sommelier, a chauffeur, and a yawn-free conversational partner at the other end of the couch at night. happy tax day indeed. yay.
