Hooray for Tax Refunds

I'm feeling particularly verbose today. So I've decided to gloat about our pending tax refund. Buying a house with an interest only loan may not be such a good idea now, but it gives you some sweet tax refund cash. Upwards of $5000 and beyond. So M. and I will probably do the practical thing like pay off our New York trip, or put money in for retirement or savings, or put down another principle payment. But I'd like to outline the less practical things you could buy with $5000+:

1. 1,538 Tall Skinny Cinnamon Dolce Lattes from Starbucks.
2. Approximately 10 pairs of Jimmy Choo shoes.
3. A lot of Rachel Ray cookware.
4. About 1,388 gallons of regular unleaded gas.
5. Oooh, this and this.
6. A new insulin pump, sans health insurance.
7. A budget for about 4 rescued cats from the SPCA.
8. About 16 Coach purses. The real ones.
9. 2 night stays at the Four Seasons Biltmore in Santa Barbara, CA.
10. A vow renewal ceremony. In San Francisco. On a Saturday.
