You Know you're REALLY a grownup...
When you think "Tax Refund" and feel guilty about keeping about five bucks so you can maybe get a cheeseburger--and the rest is pre-earmarked for BILLS.
I spent a very unpleasant afternoon writing checks. After rent--I rent from my friend so I pay half of my rent twice a month--I spent virtually my ENTIRE PAYCHECK on medical bills, perscriptions and paying towards balances on cards long since cut up. I did completely pay off one anesthesiologist and the pathologist who unbeknownst to me checked me for intestinal cancer when they apparently biopsied me during surgery last October.
Yeppers---no laptop, even if I start a kitty. I need a kitty to pay some travel expenses for Confluence and AWA. Damn it--I can't work any harder or live much closer to the bone. I had unplanned vet bills for Meep and unplanned medical bills for me...and not a lot of sales commissions.
What makes me really goddamned furious is that I work with and know people who are single and claiming brothers or sisters or friend's kids as dependents and getting huge refunds--and getting away with it. I sometimes get 400.00 or so--they are getting a couple of GRAND. And they don't get caught, either....no justice, eh?
