its so tempting to blow this money /rant

[pbkid]

so....just got my tax returns back and a fatty paycheck for the last 2 weeks work...
so i went ahead and ordered up some rocky road sliders

now i have 900 bills just sitting around left over...

its soooooooo tempting to buy some really nice wheels for the VX.

but, i need to pay off some bills

its just burning a hole in my pocket as we speak, i can think of about 1000 things i would rather spend it on...but i have to be mature and use it well.

man it sucks growing up a little and having to actually pay things off instead of having fun

oh well, at least i got my sliders..

/endrant

[pbkid]

uh oh!! now i just realized that im gonna get slammed to donate money...ah!

/deletethread

eh, maybe ill throw a little extra in the pot to help the fam

gotta make sure i save enough to get the sliders installed and enough to reserve my campspot at the portal

Don't gotta pay someone to install sliders, a can of WD40, 30dollars for appropriate carbon steel bits, and a few hours. I got my sliders tuesday, about 1.5 hours per side. Thats it, so you can DONATE to the site!!!!!!!!!!! And you can develop an intimate bond with your Vx while drilling holes in her........
Sorry everyone, well into a box of merlot with my wife and friends...

i'm looking for superior strength though, and im thinking welding will be the best for strength..

oh, and i got anxious tonight and added some other stuff onto my order tonight

rear differential guard for the VX

northern colorado trail guide

and a bolt on air tank, just incase of flats

oh, and non-offroad oriented i also ordered an ipod cable for my 2-din eclipse radio

I was in the same boat last week. I get a pretty good lump back from Uncle Scam and "had some plans" for what to do with it. None of them panned out, except for getting the parts I NEEDED for the VX. Sadly, my HOA went up another $75 for the year, so it is well over a grand now. Paid that. Had some debt that racked up over XMas. Paid that (paid it down at least, heh). Dog is a few months overdue for her expensive, big dog check up/exam. Set aside the cash for that. In the end, I think I have enough to get myself a 12 pack of Jones Cream Soda and call it a day.

On the bright side, MD state tax just went up on cigs, which puts them at $7 a pack now. I haven't had a smoke since Sat. The Gov is trying to starve that addiction out of me. Such evil (but damn I hope it works!).

[pbkid]

ouch...doesnt it suck when you get a bunch of money and then have to spend it on crap like that??

i ended up having to drop $400 to pay off my new computer (which is probably better to pay off before the interest racks up)

but, i DID get to order the sliders, diff gaurd, spare air tank for filling up flats, and a nothern colorado trail guide

oh, and an ipod cable for my 2-din eclipse deck so that i can charge my ipod and control it from the radio

Pay off the debt. It's far more rewarding and relieving in the long run.

no, but really, i split it 50/50 between debt and fun

[nfpgasmask]

hmm....interesting idea....i was gonna mount it inside where the lug wrench goes (if it fits) or maybe underneath the VX in the rear....

but the roof rack is an interesting idea....

It's like a 50/50 Pay on some debts and enjoy your sliders. And weld the sliders on ! ! Unless it mounts directly to the frame side (I still would weld them) you wouldn't want any extra bolt heads exposed from the bottom. Enjoy your $$
