BT! Alive and well. Yay! Man, a dollar AND a place to sleep just to come visit Australia. That seems like an awesome deal.
{{Maria}} I kept wishing for a solution. It seems insane that they can tell you that you owe when you know you don't. I hope Beej's solution works for you.
I don't think I've hugged Maria. Lemme get on that:

I hope Beej's solution works for you.
I hope
something
works. It took me two years with the state of CA for them to quit trying to tell me I owed them back taxes for when I was stationed outside the country. Even if you get it resolved this time, don't be surprised if they pop right back up next year for the same thing. Just stick to your guns.
Congrats on the acceptance, Nora!

In some ways, I'm glad I go to work during the week. It makes me appreciate the weekends that much more.

{{Maria}}. The IRS is telling me the same damn thing, and it's uber-frustrating.
Tax problems suck, Maria. I'm sorry.

We've had a shooting here that sounds like it came right out of television. In the middle of a retrial for rape, kidnapping, possession and assorted violence, the suspect grabbed a deputy's gun and shot and killed a well respected superior court judge and the court clerk and shot a deputy. He has since carjacked more than one car, including beating up a newspaper feature writer and taking his car, and is still at large.
Ah, the Atlanta thing. It's made the Yahoo main page under News.
Yikes, Ginger!
t waves in the general direction of Australia in case bt is still around
Our governor went ahead and declared a drought emergency. I'm taking shorter showers, not leaving the water running while I brush my teeth, going to buy more bibs today because that way I could go a little longer between loads of laundry, etc. I know this is all petty in the big scheme of things, but it makes me feel like I'm at least trying to be helpful.
I just read about that at CNN.
