Most of my paperwork was destroyed recently and since I moved out of town, I've been procrastinating in regards to the IRS cuz I needed to catch up from losing everything as it was.

So fucking GET THIS! I get there early and I'm chain smoking cigs in my car and praying my ass off, please God just let this all go away. Let me at least get a reasonable payment arrangement but please don't screw me out of the little that I have left. I didn't think there would be any way in hell that I could get it reduced after so much time has went by and I know they don't give a rats ass about personal circumstance.

After doing the numbers (I'm still not clear on exactly how much I owe but the good news is that it doesn't matter) the guy tells me that I qualify for some "once per lifetime" deal where they just knock the whole fricking thing off. He didn't say "might" or "may". I kept asking if he was sure. He insisted the whole thing will get knocked off. I pay them like 6k and then the IRS like 2K and THAT'S IT!!!

100K to 2K BLAM!!!

I will have it all paid in full within a few days. Unreal isn't it!!! I can't stop crying. I feel like I got a part of my life back.

Just thought I'd share this inspirational IRS story as I know they're very rare. Nap time!
