The day before yesterday, I received a "reminder for consumption tax payment" from the tax office. (What!? A reminder!? Ridiculous!)
I thought it might be related to last month's mistake by the tax office in depositing my refund (even though I had filed an amended return the next day, they had mistakenly deposited twice the original refund amount, and had asked for half of it back, so I had spent an hour round trip to the bank counter to transfer the money). (I already returned it! What on earth is the tax office doing? They're like the ruling Liberal Democratic Party with their secret fund issues! Should I call and give them a piece of my mind? Or maybe it's better to send a written complaint to the director?) My mind was consumed by this dilemma.
But as I lay in bed that night, closing my eyes in the darkness, I realized. (Consumption tax? Oh, I haven't paid that...)
I paid it today at the convenience store. Thank goodness I didn't go yelling at them.

全体が一昨日の話で過去形なので、それ以前の出来事は過去完了にした方が良いのかなと思いましたが、その必要は無いようです。
