so the grand total for taxes this year?? $876 federal and $238 state. on top of the $2049 i'd already paid for federal and $776 that i paid to the state. that's a total of $2925 for federal and $1014 for state. all together, i paid $3939 out in taxes this year. considering i made $27,305 last year, that's 14.4% i'm paying out for taxes. i have no idea whether this is good or bad. in the big scheme of things that is. for me personally, it's bad. any time i have to write out checks for $1114 and mail them out and not get something really, really cool back, it's bad. especially when i didn't work for three weeks right before this and then didn't get paid for my first week at my new job. very... very... bad.
but it's done. it's covered. and i didn't have to get any money from huey. so it's okay. note to self: change my withholdings on my W-4 so this shit doesn't happen next year. cuz it sucks balls. cereal.
