My wish list

I've decided to make gift giving easier for all for the upcoming holidays and my eventual graduation. And I'm a greedy brat. But, as the title says, one is entitled to wish. Please note that I prefer to receive USED (but in very good condition) books. Save the trees!


In-eh 'spensive:

Replacement blades for my veggie slicer (Asian grocery stores probably have it cheaper than this web site.)
I lost one of my blades a year ago and have missed it dearly. Must have julienne carrots!

A guitar dust cover
So I can leave my guitar out where I can easily pick it up for a few minutes of practice without it letting it get all ooky

Egyptian Goddess Candle and/or Soap

Neutrogena mineral powder
I never wear foundation, but after 32 years of living and 3.5 of those years being spent in vet school, I think my skin needs something for nice occasions. And I heard that this stuff is super light.


Not So 'spensive:

Lexar Smartmedia card reader
Building my home recording studio piece-by-piece. Once I get at least 12 songs finished (I have about 40 started, but as my vocal idol Chris Robinson once said, it's easy to start a song, come up with an idea, but the hard part is seeing it through), I'm recording them in a permanent form.

A gift certificate to Guitar center or other music store that sells guitar, drum, or piano stuff

An exotic pet medicine book
The studying never ends


Gettin Kinda 'spensive:

A Montana travel guitar
Can't let the callouses get soft when I have to travel! And what a cute little toy. Ahh, guitars--like potato chips, cats, and tattoos, you can't have just one. . .or two. . .

A REALLY nice frying pan
I've had it with pans that warps and peel, and my roomate has one of these and I've put it through rigorous testing. Worth the price, since it will actually last.

Veterinary dermatology book written by one of our professors What a great book. What a weirdo nerd I am for putting this on my list. There's nothing nerdier than enthusiasm for animal acne.

Even nerdier


O, C'Mon, Dream-on 'Spensive:

Five minute veterinary consult: Cats and Dogs
Because real doctors treat more than once species!

Five minte veterinary consult: Ferret and Rabbit
Because really crazy doctors treat more than the nine species taught in vet school!
