Yes.
If your plan is flexible, you can deduct up to $115/month for transit as well. That will reduce your basis, for tax purposes, by $1380.

snatched away the spoon I hesitantly offered her and tucked in. Left-handed. I would have cried, except Hec would have never stopped rolling his eyes, ever.
...er, crying because she's left-handed? Or because you didn't think of it? Or cause "OMG SHE FED HERSELF!"? So confused...
Oh, well, yeah. It's near Baltimore, but it's Reisterstown.
Shame you can't eliminate students based on their parents, too...
omplain about their child's lack of internet, just so I could make up the reason it wasn't working." Oh yes, we have special filters that shut down access if you are looking at [ some random odd or disturbing porn or fetish ]
That would be AWESOME.
Hmm. Mailing gross things is illegal. Noted
Why? I suppose it was considered threatening? I mean, he didn't leave the cow's head in his BED or anything...Yeesh. What kind of freedoms are we LEFT with in this society?? Can we still send dead roses? Or black ones?
We were taught to fold them and put them under the pillow, so that's what I do when I'm behaving, but I did it once as a guest at a relative's house and someone slept in my bed a night I was away and freaked out.
Clearly it's the other person in your bed that's freaky. If I am using the same nightclothes, I probably put them under the pillow, or right below the pillow under the bedcovers. But I rarely make the bed, and am often dashing out the door in the morning, so ti's more often "in a heap in the middle of an unmade bed". Um, and my parents have no European influence, I don't think.
Congratulations, tiggy!!

Cass, one of those would freak me right out. They're so clearly snakes with legs.
Yeah, I don't know what the skink in the closet was eating. Dust I guess. The cat was bringing in skinks regularly for awhile and it got away to a hiding place in the back of the closet.
I'm petsitting one of these: [link] His name is Roger. He's 11. He's kind of cute - I caught him yawning once! but reptiles don't do a heck of a lot, well, tortoises anyway. I'm tempted to take him outside and let him "run" but am afraid I'd lose him. The site above says to tape bike flags or balloons onto them when you take them out so you don't lose them. I guess they move fast when you take your eyes off them!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
yea, I am worried about my take home being less than it was before because of the additional pre-tax withdrawls, so reducing my take home more is not something I think I can do. But I think as long as I am getting back in reimbursements close the the difference in the take home each month, then I should be ok for monthly expenses. Sure, ideally I would like to take out the max pre-tax that I can towards retirement, but I couldn't pay the rest of my bills then.

Congratulations, tiggy!
I've never heard of this under the pillow with the PJs thing. Mine go on a a shelf in the linen closet. I wear them for two nights and then change to new.
I make our bed every morning (complete with turn down and lots o' pillows). Once like a year ago when GF was sick, I made the bed up all cozy for her like that and she was really into it so now I do it every day.
I'm wearing a Lucky Brand Asian-style hoodie right now AIFG.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Cass, one of those would freak me right out. They're so clearly snakes with legs.Well I will never be able to look at a skink again now. I fear snakes. I preferred thinking of them as wee dinosaurs.
The Tijuana Estuary has a "legless lizard" and nothing will ever convince me it's just not a snake in lizard's clothing.

If I bothered to make my bed, I'd put the pjs under the pillow. Did that as a child too.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
tiggy, you win! Also, congratulations on the house.
Which is to say...prolific was exactly the word. Man, I hope I can drive tomorrow.

That's really sweet.
I don't use a topsheet, so there's no real making to be done. I could lay the blankets out neatly, but I don't think they're even big enough to tuck in on the sides--they'd just look weird.

Well, Emmett's recovering from his earache that's kept him out of school all week. (Lesson Learned: Don't dunk your head underwater in your friend's hot tub.)
And I've got an ick that can't decide whether to level me or just go away.
JZ is wrapped up in her MSCL box set (Halloween ep), Matilda is entertaining herself by stomping around and up and down the hall in her Squeaky Shoes. (It sounds like a stampede of squeak toys.) And Emmett's face first into his Nintendo DS (Mario Party).
But I have the interpipes, vodka and grapefruit juice and...okay, that's it.
