aint supposed to die on a saturday night

the good news is that another week is drawing to a close. the bad news is that still have not received a check from the irs. if i do not have one tomorrow when i get home from work, i suppose i will have to call them yet again. i am not sure if have mentioned this or not, but recently another letter arrived from the irs telling me that should have received my money from them by now. the obvious flaw with this is the fact that is like the fourth notice that i should have received my money from them. if they honeslty thought they had sent me money, i doubt they would keep sending me letters to remind me of that. then again, this is a government agency, that may actually be someone"s job to sit around all day and mail defunct notices to people.

the reason i need to call them tomorrow, is that i have been informed (via the letter) that i should receive the my check within two weeks of the of that notice. a brief glance at my previous post would show that i have been told that i had to wait two more weeks on multiple occasions prior to this one. this is the great part, by my count it has been about eighteen weeks. that is just a tad over the two week mark. oddly enough, whenever i call i am told that the person has misinformed me. then they apparently go on to misinform me as well. it is like i am in that movie labrynth where i have a choice between the two doors, i can only ask one question to pick the right door, and one of the doors always lies while the other is consistantly truthful. i guess i keep picking the wrong door. to be perfectly honest with you, i am pretty sure she fell into a pit when she picked the right door. so perhaps it is also a no win situation. like cleveland brown said, "nobody actually wins, you just do a little better every time around."
