Wish List

So. I haven't really made a wish list/Christmas list in a very long time. But I'm going to this year (not that I'm anticipating presents or anything -- it seems this year has been extra tight where cash is concerned)! I've just found so many things on Pinterest that I find useful and amazing and pretty cheap (sometimes the opposite, though!). 

Either way, it's a fun thing for me to do, since I like lists and am currently procrastinating everything I can think of doing (you know, exercising, juicing, planning Thanksgiving . . . just the usual stuff!).


Women's Black Pair - Wide Calf
I would actually wear heals if I could wear socks with them! This is an amazing invention and I can't believe no one thought of it sooner.
I admit it -- I'm a bit of a geek. I absolutely adored Sailor Moon when growing up. I always wanted to have something like Usagi did (yes, I've read the manga, too. I still even own the comics!) and this would be amazing! It's only about $20, too, but it's on eBay so who knows if that's a fixed price or not . . . 

Official Japanese Premium Bandai Sailor Moon Time Space Key http://www.moonkitty.net/reviews-buy-sailor-moon-jewelry.php #SailorMoon
I don't have any clue how much this is going to be but I'm assuming it'll be over $300 . . . The key to the fifth dimension? Yeah, I'd say $300 is worth it.

I love being able to "set it and forget it." I would love to cook meals at work and make my co-workers suffer. Plus, it's small, so it won't actually take the usual 6-8 hours to cook. And it gives me a single-serving meal. 'Cause I'm snazzy like that.

I loves me some HP. I loves me some white boards. Do I really need to say more?


Heated Ice Scraper... What??
Don't judge me! You want one, too. For someone who goes to work at night and comes home in the morning, this could come in handy. Some days, I have to scrape before I leave for work and again before I come home. And for someone who's worked 10 hours already, who wants to have to do that again? Forty bucks is a small price to pay, I think. 

I really need one of these for my car. TARDIS Custom Car Emblem by Empira on Etsy, $12.00
Because I can. I don't need any reason whatsoever.

I told you I was a nerd, right? Yes, yes, yes. Run along now. Bip, bip, bip!


blaster 3.0 brown
Yeah. It's not going to happen though. This happy present would set whoever loves me oh-so-much back about $300. I'm not quite sure I'm loved that much. But it would be awesome to use while running (since no one thought it would be a good idea to put pockets in yoga pants -- where am I suppose to put my house keys or my iPod?!). How is it that people can be so clever?
WANT.
Another high-priced item ($150). Again with the HP lovin'. 


Love this Supernatural-Inspired Hunter's Protection Necklace.
Carry on my wayward son. I'm noticing a pattern with my "wants." They all have to do with geekery. Meh. I'll get over it someday, I'm sure. It's under $20, so we're doin' good.


FIREFLY SERENITY Vinyl Decal Sticker "Shiny"  eBay
I'm not one for messing up my car with decals and stickers. But if I had this, I would make an exception. $5.


bahahaha
Another thing I'd make an exception for. $10.



THINK GEEK:  Grab-It Pack Gadget Holster (Deluxe Left), $39.99
Here's my cheaper option to the holster above. $25.


Reuseable produce bags. These are see through and you can rinse veggies while in the bag -- these sound handy
Great idea for someone who is going to be shopping exclusively at a produce stand. (Didn't you read my last post?) $12 isn't too bad for reusable, machine washable. 
Yes, I know. Just -- don't judge me, 'kay? It's super uncomfortable when driving over long distances to have your seat belt gouging into your carotid the entire drive. At least it doesn't have Hello Kitty on it, okay!


One of my Aunts has two sets and I absolutely fell in love with them when we were over at her house. They stack easily and are pretty enough to be left on the counter, by the coffee pot my roomie has. $15. 


********************************

So, yeah. Those are things I wouldn't mind owning. Maybe this gives you a better understanding of how my mind functions?

It doesn't work for me.

Understanding, that is.

Cheers!

  1. Fun list! I haven't made one of these in forever...maybe I should :-)
    You should look at running belts- at least I think that is what it is called. It is similar to your holster, but designed to be worn like a belt and roll inward so no one can take anything from you. It works for jogging AND while traveling abroad where pick pocketing is common because everything is close to your body. And it isn't too bulky looking. I saw a mom put one on and put stuff in it and I was impressed- hence I am sharing with you!

    1. Thanks for the tip! I just googled them and those are clever ideas! I was thinking about a good 'ol fanny pack, to be honest -- I was getting that desperate!

      That, or I should just buy men's running shorts. Pockets EVERYWHERE!

      Cheers!
