The plug is on your oil pan which looks like the following picture. It's practically impossible to miss, and the plug should be at the lowest point. You can see it sticking out in the picture here.

Do you know what your crankcase is? That's at the bottom of the engine. You will find the plug near the bottom of this, off to one side.

Edit: See the above picture ^

OK, I'm fairly confident I've found the plug. However, it requires that delightfully common socket wrench btwn 9/16 and 5/8. Do they actually make 19/32? God this sucks! Should have gone to JiffyLube.

And once you figure this out, make sure you have a drain pan so that you can dispose of the oil properly. There are laws governing the disposal or motor oil and you'll probably have to pay a disposal fee at your local refuse station.
