Ok, it’s November so I can start posting this.

Tools:
1. Ryobi 18V ONE+

I have the Impact Drill.
The Dual Function Inflator is the one I would like the most.

I wouldn’t mind anything in the set, really. I am sure they will come in handy one time.

The HandVac and the Fan are two that I wouldn’t mind having and would probably use regularly.

I don’t have a Jigsaw or reciprocating saw right now, either.

I could use some more bits for my Impact Drill. I discovered yesterday that I don’t have 1/4″ socket Hex Bits. I almost bought them to fix my garbage disposal, but thought I could try old fashion muscle, first.

2. The D90 Camera Body only

I like my D40x. But I would REALLY like the D90. It really is the photographer, not the camera, but it has more features that I want. I like gadgets like that. I used to want a ton of lenses, but I can’t really see me swapping out lenses all that often.

3. Kindle I’m actually going to test drive Melissa’s Kindle soon. She’s willing to read one of my old fashion books, while I try out her Kindle.

4. Netbook I don’t really want a netbook. I want a honkin’ small laptop. Something like a Lenovo ThinkPad X200 Tablet, tricked out to about $3K. Of course, that’s kind of pointless as I spend 90% of my computer time on my work laptop. (ThinkPad T60p). I’m sort of brand loyal. I had a T40 before the T60p.

I can’t really say that I want much more than that. Can you ask for a Maid Service for Christmas?

Update:

5. Ladders
I need ladders. 2 of them. A nice light 5′ 300lb step ladder and a 300lb as tall as they get Extension Ladder. Technically, I need the extension ladder before Christmas to put up the second story Christmas lights.
