Can I just tell you how exciting it was to print a tax return on my new printer without having to walk to the bedroom, turn on the desktop computer, wait, log on, walk back to the laptop in the living room, press print, walk back to the bedroom… See, it’s a task that isn’t all that complicated, but I can make it sound tedious if I want.

And that is why the Wireless Printer is my Roomba. But it’s not just a printer! It scans and faxes too. I have no use for fax, but the scanning comes in handy for making copies. Now I don’t have to use the stand alone scanner that my mom bought for me ages ago (thanks Mom! It had a good life here at the Richmond house.) Did I mention it’s wireless? And that since I bought it with my new laptop it only cost me $40? It’s a life-changer, for sure.

I’m also equally thrilled that my software provider, TaxAct, has finally added city forms to the software. Yay! No more preparing of city returns by hand. I mean, that had an element of fun in it, but when time is a luxury you would welcome an easier solution.

What can I say? I’m just a big nerd. Always have been, always will be.
