Birthday list

It is way too early for me to be thinking about this but I am trying to furnish an apt and things come up. Plus, I'm pretty sure Ellen is the only one who reads this so let's consider it more of a temporary list placed where I won't loose it.
Things I would like for my bday:
1. Artwork for the new apt. Particularly Ellen brought up getting local art which would be awesome. I'd like something over the tv, something by my bed and something over the couch, so I guess lots of artwork....
2. The Jane Austen action figure. I'll also take Poe or Wilde (I have Shakespeare), but that is the true English teacher nerd in all it's glory.
3. A cute hat. I feel like it's something necessary in LA. I also think this will serve as my quirky bit for being a drama teacher. I have a pretty basic look about me so I think a hat will serve to give me a little oddity or something.
4. Money. You know why that's tight right now and I'd like to be able to go to Nicaragua in the summer and to Illinois around Christmas.
5. And if I don't go out and buy it, which I may just so I can wear it plenty before the election, there is this great Obama shirt that has doves and an anchor and says hope on it that's difficult to describe but awesome. (I know my anxiousness to buy this doesn't fit in with number 4 but I'm on kind of a time restraint on this one)

don't make Jane Austen figures an "English teacher thing." they are most definitely not. i'm pretty sure that's some of your former engineer shining through or something.
