Also, I really love that the IRS has a website called "Where's My Refund?" and that they update it frequently. I always imagine it being called, "Where's My Refund, Beyotch!"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Congrats to CJ!

Sunburn and broken DVD players aside, I hope you are having a great trip meara and Brenda!

I wasted today again, apart from a trip to Costco for work snacks (there are $235 worth in the trunk of my car). I really need to stop doing that.

Guinness ice cream sounds yum!

It is!

Congratulations to CJ! A major achievement. Which he's racking up this year.

Aw. I love stuff like that.

Turns out my office-neighbor's son is just finishing up his freshman year at Guilco (how'd I miss that?) Anyway, I then told him about Taylor getting accepted, and he totally volunteered his son to talk to her if she wants. Of course there was also a pleading "Does she have a car? Cause then they could come back home together rather than trekking to pick him up all the time." (She does not. But I told him if she goes, he can totally pick her up too!)

Random question,

Are the twins too young for Pippi Longstocking? Because I'm on book 21 of Magic Tree House and I'm getting a little tired of Annie and Jack.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

That's awesome, Kat!

Right, taxes, I should file those. I'm pretty sure I don't owe any and I doubt I'm getting a refund, but I should still file. Maybe next week.

I really need to stop doing that.

Or embrace it, that's an option. You need downtime on occasion.

We are having a great trip! We saw whales and dolphins and a secret beach! I've only got one more day though. Then again, I got very sunburnt today, so possibly just as well.

Hahah! Awesome. We keep passing this restaurant called "Bichos", and I keep wanting to pronounce it "beeeeeetches!"

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Aww, Kat, that's marvelous. Our upcoming newsletter will have a story about a young woman who told us she decided to become a missionary when she heard us speak at camp five years ago. We'll see if she actually follows through, but still.

Yay, meara/brenda vacation! I still have not seen the whales. They're never where I am when I'm looking.

Congrats to CJ!
