December 12, 2004All (and I mean ALL) I want for ChristmasI am a Pretty Pretty Princess. As such, I should be spoiled beyond all that is reasonable. I now present to you my Christmas wish (HAH - fantasy) list 2004**, in no particular order:  Sony NW-HD1 20 GB Network Walkman Digital Music Player. Amazon's price: $349.99 Just the mere concept of having a portable MP3 player with 30 hours of playback time and the capacity to hold up to 900 CD's worth of music, well, plainly gives me goosebumps.  Nikon D70 Digital SLR Camera. Amazon's price: $1,234.87 I've seen this one cheaper at other sites, but only as low as in the $900's. So, damn. But, DAY-AMN! Incredible camera. I was convinced by Heather.  HP Photosmart 7960 Printer. Amazon's price: $229.99 Because I sometimes actually like to hold actual physical pictures in my hand. I'd go with the 7760, but I want the ability to print black-and-white, too.  Toshiba 62HM94 62" DLP Integrated HDTV with Cable Card Slot. Amazon's price: $3,098 (wow, over $1k off retail). DLP is da bomb. I like the idea of watching TV that's so clear it's like looking out a window. Plus, you know, the widescreen is great, me being such a fan of letterboxed movies.  Sirius Satellite Radio - with car and home adapters, and headset for Total Walking Around Goodness. Sirius Price: $189.00 There is no end to my need to be entertained at all times.  Audiovox D1020 10" Portable DVD Player. Amazon's Price: $549.99 This thing is SO COOL. Detachable speakers, TV and radio tuners, ability to play movie through truck speakers, wireless headphones.  Maytag Neptune® 7.0 cu. ft. Electric Drying Center™ w/Upper Drying Cabinet . Sears price: $999.99 Seriously. Laugh if you want to, but to own one of these things has been a passion of mine since they came out. I mean, how cool is it to be able to hang-dry, and lay things flat, and not have to tumble and clonk your tennis shoes around in a regular drum dryer?  Maytag Neptune® 27 in. Front Load Washer with LCD Touch Screen Controls . Sears price: $1,099.99. May as well throw in a whizzy-bang washer, too. Our washer and dryer are on their last legs. Loyal things that they've been, since 1994.  KitchenAid KFP600 11-Cup Ultra Power Food Processor. Amazon's price: $139.99 Continuing with the domestic trend for a moment. I need this. I. NEED. THIS.  All-Clad LTD 9-Piece Cookware Set with Nonstick Fry Pan. Amazon's price: $639.99 Another must-have. I am a domestic goddess.  The Leopards Lair. CatsPlay price: $409.99 Can you even BEGIN to comprehend how much fun Oz would have with this thing?!?  Gypsy Caravan. Tumbleweed Tiny House Company's price: $9,990 Ever since reading "Danny Champion of the World", I've always wanted a gypsy caravan. Tumbleweed has a lot of other really cool models, too. If you're willing to pay that much for what amounts to essentially a playhouse. Which, of course, every little girl (and boy, probably, though I can't speak for them) wants. And finally...  2006 Corvette C6. Chevy's price: Who knows. Over 50k, I'm sure. Hey, as long as I'm wishing... ** Editor's Note: This is in no way, shape or form a plea for any of my readers to actually purchase any of these things for me. It is simply a reminder list to myself, for when I win the lottery. *** Editor's Other Note: All pictures courtesy of respective product websites. Comments on this entry? Head on over to Colloquial!
