Dear Federal Income Tax Return…Come to Mama!

Dear IRS,

Thank you! I never thought I’d say that.  Ever.  But thanks.  Or maybe I should thank my underemployment status for the big fat return I’m getting this year.  Seriously best year ever.  And my state taxes aren’t even done yet.  Not getting my hopes up on that one.  Governor Quinn needs the money for the budget deficit.  But I digress.  Every year I make grand plans on what to do with my tax return and most of the time I spend it on somewhat frivolous things I don’t really need.  This year will be different.  This year I’ll be paying off the last of my tuition bill from my graduate degree so I can get my diploma.  Which I will probably promptly set on fire and cry as it burns since thus far, it has done me little good.  After that, I’ll still have quite a chunk of change left, so I’m finally investing in a new box spring and mattress set!  Haven’t started shopping around yet, so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!  I’ll have a couple hundred dollars left over after that to either save for a rainy day or maybe buy myself one of the more frivolous things I seem to adore so much.  Anyone who knows me knows how much the frivolous purchase angel seems to influence me more than the rainy day fund angel.  The rainy day fund is so boring…until you need it of course.

So my dear readers, what are you doing with your tax return?!

Sincerely,

Blogger Dearest
