Sandra just awarded me a Sephora giftcard just for giving her ideas to write about. If it were that easy I’d have been writing about ideas like that long ago because that eyeshadow isn’t going to purchase itself! She’s writing over at Damsels In Success and here is a sampling of her work.

It appears that there are lots of birthdays this month as I wander aimlessly throughout the internet (it only took 45 minutes, too, that easy internet slut) and since my parents were getting jiggy with it during the summer of 1970, I am here to celebrate entering the world with a new list of Things I’d Have If I Had A Million Dollars.

This is from the over-priced but always exquisite Horchow site. I figure I will dream big. It’s bright and cheery and ON SALE. To be fair, they do have “Furniture. Accessories. Dreams.” right there on their site. DREAMS, people. They are free, but this bad boy will set you back at the low, low sale price of $480.

So let’s dream smaller. After all, I’m only going to be…EEK. IS THAT A RAT?

Pardon me. Where was I?

Smaller dreams. Aaahh yes. This Flip Video should be a real crowd pleaser in my bithday stocking this year.

It’s small, not too pricey, and pink. The most important part is that it’s pink and will record live video. I’m a slut for pink things lately.

This wouldn’t be a proper post unless I showed some outrageously high-heeled death traps that are whispering in my ear.

They are whispering, “Come. Break your neck with me. But look F-A-B doing it. I will let you sniff my goodness first and then make you long for some cushiony Dr. Scholl’s help. Remember the F-A-B. It will help you forgive me later.”

Gorgeous, no? Made by (caution: click on this link and listen to sexy shoe wearing music) Martinez Valera and named “Camila” (I would even call her by her name if she were to find her way into my closet) they are available from Piperlime for $129 and I would squeeze my size 11’s into that 10 right before I sent them back and whispered sweet nothings into Camila’s ears.

Let’s get real, though. I’ll probably only spring the 20 bucks in my pocket for this cute green tank top from Mission Playground.

Eco-conscious and adorable. I’m all over that. Mission Playground’s website reads “May we all be aware and respectful of our playground.” and that reminds me that I keep telling you that I’ll write about going green but I have to get my notes together on an interview I did.

For now, I’ll probably save my green (my money! or lack thereof!) for a little birthday dinner later this week. No birthday wishes just yet, please. I don’t want to jinx the birthday letter I’m hoping to get from that tease over at Fluid Pudding for the April NaBloPoMo theme of letter writing…

There are two things I need to write about soon or I will EXPLODE. There will be particles of my body and brain all over the floor requiring an entire cleaning crew. One of them is about being a card carrying member of Minorities R Us (and don’t, just don’t call me a Tragic Mulatto because I can tell you there will be bits of you all over the floor, too) and the other is about how I’m going green. Really. It’s always been a Thing I’ll Do Someday that I’m really embracing. I got to do an interview of someone who operates a Green site and I need to get on that.

Right after I explode and get it all cleaned up.

But first!

I thoughts about doing some serious re-design around here and since I can’t come to a consensus about how it should look or what a theme should be, I shall covet. Openly. With abandon. Here’s some stuff I would like to have.

These are outrageously expensive especially when one considers that the bottom can simply be “cut” to the desired length. If I’m paying more than $75 for pants I’d better have a personal seamstress come to my home and measure me and make it work. Still, for the tall gal, these are a happy dance waiting to happen. Made by Earth And Sky whose website is currently under construction.

Made out of potato chip wrappers (I could keep them in business - kettle chips make me drool and profess my undying love to them) this little trash basket is cute. Can be found at BTCElements. Cute and crunchy.

It’s white. Donna Karan, yes, but it’s white. WHITE. I don’t do well with white either in my career or my home life. Too many greasy potato chips and cups of coffee. No, no, no. White wouldn’t do at all unless I had several because my coffee would probably jump out of the mug and attack it for being so pretty.

This is the only thing I’ve had a picture of for so long that I can’t recall what site I saw it on first. Possibly PiperLime.com or maybe Zappos. Two places I frequent far too much. Not that I ever buy anything. But, if I had a million dollars… and maybe that minority card. In platinum.
