in Chit-Chat
So my wife says I can have $1000 from the tax return to do whatever I want with. What should I do with it?

Currently considering:

Building a gaming PC.
Buying a road bike.
Buying an indoor piece of exercise equipment to cross-train with like an elliptical machine or stationary bike.
Buying 100 large pizzas.
Starting a small business in an as-yet undetermined field.

I have four kids and my oldest is 5 and in 6 years I'll be 40.

My life consists of work, grocery store, quiet desperation and, rarely, sleep. Once in a while I get a shower if there's any hot water left after the 5 loads of clothes have been washed.

I NEED A LITTLE EXCITEMENT IN MY LIFE PEOPLE, HELP ME OUT HERE!
