Employer took out local Metro/Mult taxes in 2023. Stopped unexpectedly in 2024, and I didn't notice. Didn't know or understand the process for quarterly estimated payments, and I get fined over it. Paid an accountant to help me sort it out. It's 2026, and I receive a refund for overpayment

Waking up at 4:30 AM to catch a flight because we have no high speed rail infrastructure. Hailing a driver on the ride share app because we have no reasonable local transit options to get to the airport. No one on the app will pick you up this early so youāre forced to wake your wife up to drive you

2025 transit in review: - 2,326 mi. total on the bike - ~7.7 mi. per day, despite WFH with no commute - 40 individual car trips for the year, combo of required vs. optional - Avg. car trip was ~17.7 mi. long, which makes sense because a bikeshed of ~9 mi. means I'm probably just leaving town
