Death And Taxes

I’ve posted enough about death on this site over the past few months.  There’s no need for me to post more about the subject now.  It is tax time though and, as the saying goes, “something something death and taxes”.

Holly and I will usually get a good tax return.  I found out earlier this week that this year will be no different.  We had originally planned on taking the kids to Disneyland and buying a 52″ LCD television for the basement.  Given the current economic situation, we have decided to be a bit more responsible and pay bills.  We’re also going to buy some food storage and a few other “responsible” items but it’s not going to be all fun and games like we had originally planned.  I’m a bit bummed that I’m going to have to wait for my new TV but I’ll deal with it.  I’d much rather be able to defend myself with a full tummy during the inevitable robot uprising than watch 24 in high-definition.  (If I keep telling myself that, I might eventually believe it.)

My question to you is this: what are you planning on spending your tax returns on?  Will you go crazy and play, maybe buy that expensive item you’ve been wanting, or will you be responsible and save the money or pay bills?
