Hey, you California types. How bad will it be to drive from Burbank Airport to Ventura if I arrive at like 4:15 on a Thursday? Will it be utter rush hour hell?
I'm NoCal, but I suspect that would be a nightmare.
Faith: A kid. Angel's got a kid. Wesley: Connor. Faith: A teenage kid born last year. Wesley: I told you, he grew up in a hell dimension. Faith: Right. And what, Cordelia spent her last summer as… Wesley: A divine being. Faith: Uh-huh. Can I just ask--What the hell are you people doing?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Where in Ventura? It's probably your best airport bet, but it probably won't be fun.

Happy Birthday, Laura!!!!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
The Burbank part is a given. Already booked. Going to Ventura Beach.

A new layer of mgmt has been put in between my boss and her boss. She's flown in from NY to meet everyone and hear their assessment of the group. I'm still deciding how honest to be with her.

I got taxes done this weekend! Federal and Kansas taxes are electronically filed. Missouri taxes will need to be mailed, but I'm holding off on that since it's a payment instead of a refund. On the good side, the KS refund is more than the MO payment.

All the way to the beach? Yeah, you'll be there a while. 101 is pretty evil at the best of times, but you're making the best of a bad deal.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I did my taxes in January. My tax refund arrived the same day as my direct deposited paycheck. It was weird.

If I was a kid, I'd totally want this: Programmable spy tank turns your kid into an app developer
Most kids want to spy on their siblings every now and then, and for today's kids, technology has made snooping easier than ever.
The latest weapon in their arsenal is the Spy Video TRAKR, which takes remote controlled toy technology to a whole new level. Equipped with a color video camera and microphone, the TRAKR sends live video back to the remote, which has its own built in color monitor and speaker. The camera even has infrared sensing technology, so you can still see where you are going when the room is completely dark. If you want to set up a booby trap, you can use the TRAKR's motion sensor to play a message if your sister sneaks into your room, and it will even record the transgression on a flash card so you have video evidence.

Also, while looking up the amount of my real estate taxes, I discovered that we are 1/2 of the way to paying off the house. 7.5 years to go.
