*sigh* I have my own money and my own account and I'm not allowed to buy "fish stuff" other then food. Might have something to do with all the money I've already sunk into the hobby

Tax return...oh how I wish!

We've always paid taxes on my wife's job and my second job all in one shot so I never have a return.

Must say I felt pretty damn special buying my tank and sump recently. Most I've ever spent (lol...like ~ $200 total) without consulting first. I'm the sole bread-winner now so maybe I can sneak a few past her. Biggest issue is she handles paying the bills etc and I really don't want to...so she sees what I'm up to lol!

You really only need 1 rule...

1. Its much easier to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission..
