Eight pounds of cookie dough later...

I'm a sucker for charities. When the tax rebates came in everyone started calling me. $200 dollars later and I'm supporting the Veterans of Foreign Wars, the Firefighters league, the deputy Sheriff's department, the World Wildlife Fund, Missing and Expoilted Children, Ranger Rick etc. I had to call it stops.

I'm exactly the person that callers want on the line, I have temporarily have money b/c of taxes and can be guilted and have sympathy for almost any cause.

This is also how I ended up with thirteen boxes of girl scout cookies and eight pounds of cookie dough to support Prom. And Cardinals tickets. (Actually, I'm pretty excited about the cardinals tickets...it is Pujols figurine night!)

This is proabaly a good thing overall, but certainly not for my waistline!
