All That I Want

Now that my student loans have dried up and I'm now getting prepared to start paying them back I find myself with just enough money to pay the bills and maybe buy the occasional article of clothing that is on a super sale. This is bumming me out because there are a few things that I really really really want! I'm sure I will live without them, maybe. Since I can't have them currently in my real life I thought I would make a list of things here to admire in my blog life.
This book. I have it's sister book Tactile. Now I'm dying to see what kind of fabulous art is in this one.
Oh how I love this purse. It reminds me of nights out on the town wearing high heels and pink lipstick. Any time a color is described as cherry red I'm sold.
I finally realized Caroline Hwang has an etsy shop. I sort of wish I didn't know. Her work is so easy to get your hands on. It's so close but so far away!

I love all the Poketo stuff for Target but what I really mega love are these wallets with Matt Furie's artwork. It was actually the Poketo stuff that inspired this post. I was admiring all their stuff at Target the other day and sadly realizing I couldn't justify buying anything. Maybe I could get a keychain...

Holy smokes how bad do I want this camera??? I almost bought it. I had it all together in an amazon cart with film and I almost hit the purchase button but then I stopped myself. That is called discipline. It was very hard. I probably ate a bunch of ice cream after. This camera looks amazing. Anyone have one? What do you think about it.
I died and then came back to life and then died again when I saw the whole Daria series on DVD. Seriously! I gotta have it!
That is the list of many things I lust for.
What are you currently wanting but not buying?

Big day today. Wish me luck!

I wish I wish


I was looking around on amazon today trying to find a new to me cheap used book and instead I found a bunch of amazing but expensive to me used books. I thought I would make myself a wish list and hope the used book elves come in the night while I'm sleeping and drop them off at my door. Or at the very least I have the list here for myself if I ever come into some money. Enjoy this list:

Tangible, the companion piece to Tactile, which I have and love. Shouldn't I own it's sister book?
This looks like a book I need need need.
And of course every time you see a cool book ten more equally cool books are recommended. This was one of them.
I borrowed this book from a friend once and loved it. Now you can only buy it for over a hundred dollars. It's worth it but I don't have it.
In undergrad I used to check this out from the library all the time. Ida Applebroog is a neat neat artist. Wish I could afford this awesome book.
Do I sound whiny? I don't mean to sound whiny. I just wish I could afford every book in the world. That's not too big of a wish, right?
Oh, well. Have a lovely Thursday!
