Fancies and Goodnights

In the same vein, I also want Fancies and Goodnights John Collier. This is entirely inspired by the rave review it received on Ken Jennings' blog.

Ray Bradbury Book

One of the things I've been meaning to do is to pick up a collection of Ray Bradbury's short stories. My main motivation for wanting to check out Ray Bradbury is that I love the Twilight Zone episodes based on his stories. So yeah, a Best of Ray Bradbury anthology would be nice.

Powershot G10

I've been wanting a new camera for a while as mine doesn't take great pictures and is too bulky to carry around. The Powershot G10 seems like a great compromise between size and performance. But at 499$ list price and currently 412.95$ on amazon, this is a wishes item that will probably stay that way for a long time, at least until I am, um, employed.

iPod Classic--PURCHASED

My over-two-years-old iPod Classic still works. Unfortunately, it does not want to cooperate with my new Windows Vista PC, since it would have to be a)reformatted and b)erased to switch from Mac to Windows. I have an iPod Touch which I adore, since I can play Katamari and look up Russian words and use the internet on it, but with only 32 gb of storage, I would have to be selective about what I put on it. I want a device where I can store all of my digital crap, and for that, I need the iPod Classic.

Suzuki Beane by Sandra Scoppettone

I've wanted this book ever since I heard about it several years ago. It combines two of my favorite literary book characters--Eloise and Harriet M. Welsch. Unfortunately, the book goes for about 200$+ on ebay and amazon.
