A horse farm. It'll never happen, but I can dream.

This is actually the first thing I thought of too when I read this topic title!! Ahh... I'll have horses someday for sure, it would totally be worth any price tag!

 

As for something I could afford but haven't bought yet, I've always wanted to find a real, handforged sword based on Brisingr from the Inheritance cycle! :)

    My friend is inheriting her families mini horse farm and I am ridiculously jealous.

     

     

    If I really want something usually I can justify it if I have anywhere near the means.

    Probably an iMac though or back when I was allowed to drive, a brand new car.

    Seizures and being unable to control my left side. Once you start driving into oncoming traffic they suspend your license until you're incident free for 6 months. :(

    Feel free to come drive me around.

     

    You can be the chauffeur I can't justify but would definitely justify if you're gonna do the driving. We have a great med school here.

    I'm so sorry to hear that. Was the seizure part of  larger problem or a one-off? I hope you're able to sort something out so you can drive again if possible.

    I think I'd feel more comfortable driving blindfolded hahaha

    I've been having seizures sporadically for around 6/7 years. I hope I can too :) It's really not that bad though, university gives us free bus passes anyway so driving during the school year is just silly :) Thanks for the well wishes xx

    A gold Great Serpent Ring from the Wheel of Time series.  

     

    I have been wearing my silver one every day for several years.

    But in the books they were made of gold and I really want one that's gold.  They're like $1300 or something.

    Could you get a custom jeweler on etsy to do it  for you? Surely they'd do it cheaper.

    Don't you have used game stores locally that refurbish them? Even eBay has some for not incredibly expensive. It isn't "new", but a new pin connector is as new as you'll get.

    I want my old one and the stores here only have entire consoles. I might just end up doing that instead but I'd rather not

    I really want tickets for Weekend Two of Austin City Limits. I managed to scrounge up enough cash for Weekend One, but there's no way I could do it again. Plus, the only act that I'm really missing out on is Florence + the Machine. As much as I adore her, I just saw her in June.

    I've had an iPhone 5s since June, first iOS experience and I love it. It functions great, but I really really really want an iPhone 6 now. I found a place which would take my 5s and with some money on top, I would get the 6. It is completely unnecesary, but I'm obsessed with it. Buying it would mean me getting broke, because I'm going to use my last savings. I'm probably going to do it, though

    Since I was 18 I've wanted a brand new loaded F150 FX4. I get to see other guys drive brand new trucks all the time at work, which hasn't helped. Personally I can't bring myself to spend $60,000 on a vehicle though. Maybe in ~40 years ;)
