    Definitely the road bike! You'll have so much fun with it and burn calories!

    This is definitely high on the list of possibilities. I just hate the idea of not being able to use it all winter as I live in Massachusetts.

    Find a place that gives out race car driving lessons, and then take some. Usually it's a day or two, and a few hundred dollars. This will be fun, and a very unique experience. Humans also tend to look back on experiences with more joy, than owning objects. So instead of buying an object, buy an experience! :D

    An 8 ball of cocaine and two jello wrestling hookers.

    Are you my brother from another mother? *high five*

    No, but I could be your sister from another mister. :wink:

    Is there any chance that it could turn out that I'm a naturally talented driver who parlay's a couple of racing lessons into a career in Nascar that people really sink their teeth into because doing something like that at my age is a great human interest story?

    Anything is possible! But I want to do it, and I might do it with my tax return. It's something you can't just go and do everyday.

    Well, here is the boring answer: Either pay off/down a bill or put it into savings. That's what I'd do, but then... I'm a bit of a worry wart.:ohwell:

    Get the gaming pc.It's at the top of your list so it must be what you want the most.

    The rest of your life is sad and desperate so get this one lousy thing that makes you happy.

    I hope you get a warm shower soon.:flowerforyou:

    We already paid off all our debt (except the car) and put the rest into savings. Trust me, I wouldn't be getting the play money if we didn't have a lot of overage.

    Share it! Put a down payment on a tent trailer so you can enjoy the great outdoors camping, hiking, biking, sight seeing, beach walking (all outdoor fitness stuff) with your family!

    GO create memories!

    Invest it, or put it into a savings account for your children's education.

    I'd use it to go to an intense gym that has Olympic weights and padded flooring. I don't like working out in a tiny gym and people look at you weird if you do a deadlift. I do them quietly even without dropping the weight and everyone probably thinks I'm trying too hard.

    put it in the bank and save it for a rainy day. you're too old for games. you don't need the pizzas. (none of us do). don't just blow it. spend it wisely or save it! you never know when you're going to have to replace 20 ft of drain pipe in your front yard!!! i'm not bitter or anything. lol

    I agree with the man cave idea. Somewhere you can chill on your own or with mates. You could pick up some 2nd hand gym or gaming stuff and just have a place for you so when you smell from lack of shower nobody will notce :P

    Wish I coud give my hubby $1000 to spend on himself :)
