To my surprise I got my W2 yesterday. 10 minutes later I was on turbo tax.
For the past 4 tax seasons I dragged my feet much longer. Until January 2008 I was a NJ employee working in NC. This meant I paid taxes to both states, had to pay an accountant to file for me, and usually owed over a thousand dollars. I say usually because last year I broke even because we purchased a home in 2007.
Since my company pulled some strings last January, I have officially been a NC employee. I couldn't wait to do my tax return!
I never used turbo tax (because an accountant did it for me) but I love the way it tells you your refund as you go. Its so exciting (wow I am really admitting I am this boring?).
So a few hours later I very happily electronically filed my taxes. The money was more than I expected and will definitely be put in wedding savings.

good for you! and no you are not boring at all... well, if you are then so am I! This is my first year that I am actually filing my taxes as an "adult" per say (I'm 25 but my dad always did it) So now that I am living with the fiance' and have a career, and almost a house... I'm pretty excited! Hmm.. maybe I am a little lame lol... oh well..
