Default Oh no....
So I did my taxes today, and that money was going to go to my wheels and tires. Turns out I already paid those off and my bank account is in good shape with a nice tax return coming in.

My problem is do I go and get the shotgun shock? OL is going to kill me for even brining it up, but I think I have an itch. Damn.....knew I should have done my taxes 1st

I guess the only right thing to do is buy the parts, put them on, and never speak of it to the OL. See how easy things can be....

Split the tax return with her and tell her she can buy what she wants if you can do the same. Hard to argue that, she might even put her half back in the bank...bonus!

I sought forgiveness after the fact for my recent rampage. It has all worked itself out although it still gets through up in my face once in a while...but I got her done!

Just tell her them damn guys on the forum made you do it!

We file separate, so it's all mine. I just have to let her spend too, which is always too much. Problem is I'll need new tires for the car soon and that's where I'll run into problems.

Will definitely have to blame you guys.

My buddy told me it's easier to ask forgiveness than to ask permission. Might have to go with it
