Shadows, Haight Street Fair, San Francisco


The IRS has completely destroyed my ability to appreciate Vivaldi's Four Seasons. If you've spent anytime on hold with that great bureaucratic quagmire you'd understand. I came to this realization yesterday at an otherwise delightful lunch to bid adieu to a departing coworker. I felt anxious. For no good reason.

Not that this is unusual given my worry wart tendencies, but taxes and dentistry have a unique, tangible fear factor. I became conscious of the torrent of violins that herald fall and it came to me: Vivaldi! The IRS! Bastards!


Dear IRS,

It's time to select some new artist to torment the financially challenged masses. Perhaps Britney?
