No fair weather friends. I'd like true friends please. Like the ones I have mentally.

One of those - especially the dobermann, elephant or tiger one (in this very order).

What things would you like to be an owner of which but you aren't?

Just now, I would like to have:

- a serial killers calendar (like the one you can order from here: http://www.serialkillercalendar.com/)
- a dolls' house (not to play with but just to have - as a child I never got one, they were very expensive so as a dolls' house served me two cardboard boxes, one of which was put on another one, creating two floors in this way - I furnished them with my toy pieces of furniture; my "house" stood in hall)
- a complete Stamp watch collection

Post yours :)


An anti-treadmill device.

A friend of mine retired @ 30-34. I noticed before he retired, he took his Christmas bonus and bought a new '97 Hummer with the 120k.

It'd be nice to step off the treadmill.


He was a stock broker.

Here's my wishlist:

- a Chevy Traverse
- almost everything on modcloth.com and thinkgeek.com
- two occasions of cosmetic surgery
- a chilled glass of sangria
- a clove cigarette in that brand I like that I cannot pronounce
- more cowbell!
- a theme song... some people have a song that they know is just them and that might be cool
- a used and antique bookshop in a brick structure located in a historic downtown of a small city
- a new bedspread
- a second wii remote
- some time to go kayaking
- a weekend to see my sister-in-law

There's probably other things that I'd want if I saw them... like if I was cruising through The Store Of Everything with a cart... but this will do for now.

Someone lovely to come home to
Food in pill form (I don't mind eating, but I hate all the washing up and meal prep and that)

-In lieu of the easy button id actually prefer a "stand in" person, anyone would do (by what I've seen even crack heads are better than me) - just not a aspie. So that any time I messed up I could have a significantly less intelligent person with more people skills walk in and be the people person I cant be.

-Asus Transformer
-Pentax k5 w/ 18-135 kit / 17-70 lens / 200 or 300 mm telephoto / 1000mm telephoto / 100mm macro.
-Nikon d7000 and/or Canon 5d mark 2 to offset the features of the K5.
-Mercedes Mclaren SLR
-Bathroom made of stone with a center bath and a open sun square in the center (Ancient rome/greek style)...
-A home in a secret undisclosed location (even to myself).

The other day I was told about a local mansion. The son of a rich American company owner (wriggles). He had four foot thick flagstone installed in his shower on the second level *cough*. And they went to Canada (from arizona). To find a tree long enough to extend the length of his home. They found it via helicopter/cut it down and flew it from Canada by helicopter.

When the tree was delivered they cut a check for $199,000 usd.

That makes me sick...

I like the house in an undisclosed location

I think a house out in the boonies where I cant be found by anyone unless I go "to town"
