Today was my first day of proper work at Not the IRS this year. Of course, since it is too early for people to have their W-2 forms yet (they aren't required to be sent until the end of January), there was hardly any work to do. But the office is officially open and therefore people have to staff it.

I ran through two case studies on practice mode, sat in to observe an audit services discussion, and scheduled an appointment for a guy who walked in and wanted to talk with someone about his tax situation since it's going to be kind of messy. The next two weeks will basically be more audits and consults, neither of which I am allowed to do. Well, I could maybe technically do consults, but in practice anyone who needs that service has a much more complicated life than I am qualified to deal with yet and wouldn't want me as their adviser. And so I am not scheduled for many days or hours right now.

Things will pick up in late January, though, and hopefully by then my state paid preparer ID number will have been approved. (I have the federal PTIN, but New York requires their own separate PTIN because bureaucracy is annoying that way, blargh.)

In other news, I finished and posted my Ladypalooza fic on time. Then I made the mistake of looking at the pinch hit mailing list, which always seems to end with me saying, "I do technically have the time; that prompt looks right up my alley; and if not me, then who?" and completely bollixing my schedule for the next few days. *headdesk*

But you know, the prompt I grabbed really is right up my alley, and I don't have anything I need to do on Wednesday or Thursday...

We shall see how it goes!
