Over Thanksgiving my older sister Greta had to file an amended tax return. She had sent it once before.

Apparently the IRS has no record of receiving it.

I detected some irritation in her voice regarding the situation. Not to mention some forceful opinions about the tax code and the complications of filing taxes in two different states as a college student. Mom told Greta that she would sent the return via certified mail.

But when she went to put the envelope into her purse, she found something unusual. A rather small bite mark on the envelope. I’ve got a terrible poker face.

So how does this go down at the Internal Revenue Service? My baby sister ate my amended tax return?

Wonder if they’ve heard that one before.
