Before starting the TVGA YouTube Channel back in December, it had been quite a while since I had done anything video related. I graduated from college with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Broadcasting back in 2000 but my career path led me more into journalism than either radio or TV. So before last December, I had not edited a video in several years.

Today’s post will be a shorter one but the topic is kind of a humorous one. On April 15th, I filed my taxes online. Going into it, I thought that I was going to have it all done within 30 minutes and then move on with the rest of my day. Yes, the deadline had been extended into May, but I’m just used to the April 15th deadline so I filed that evening. The whole process took more than two hours and after I was done, I was mentally exhausted and done for the day. Continue Reading
