The return trip is freakier:
Jan 4th I leave SYD at 9:20pm local time and arrive HNL at 10:10am local time (9:50 hours in the air)
Jan 4th I leave HNL at 3:20pm local time and arrive PHX at 11:59pm local time (5:39 hours in the air) with massive jet lag.

But I get a full two weeks in Aus!

HAHA! My return trip from Japan was very similar. We arrived in Denver on the same day, before we took off from Japan. It fucked my internal clock up something fierce.

lol, that's funny

How long is the plane ride to Australia going to be?

It's actually two plane rides.

Dec. 19th I leave PHX at 8:45am local time and arrive HNL at 12:10pm local time (6:25 hours in the air).
Dec. 20th I leave HNL at 12:05pm local time and arrive SYD at 7:20pm on Dec. 21st (10:15 hours in the air).

I'm going to enjoy myself on Dec. 20, just because I know that you're totally going to miss it! Ha!

I'll have the first 12 hours!

But, I'll enjoy myself on January 4th, twice as long as you possibly could! :p

I received a notice in the mail about GETTING a check, but never a notice of an amount NOR a check.

There's some deadline for when you're supposed to get it by which, IIRC, has something to do with the month you were born in.

It's the last 2 digits of your social that decides when you get your check. http://www.irs.gov/irs/article/0,,id=180250,00.html

It sucks I won't be getting one... since I'm listed as a dependent.

Yeah.  Sucks.  About how much did you pay in taxes last year?

I'm in the same boat as you, pal. I also paid almost $2000 in taxes; my job I had during school didn't take much money out for taxes each payday, and I ended up getting pissed on by the IRS.

You say that like it is uncommon. The IRS tends to screw most people by confusing them in to thinking they owe more money than they do.
