Things I would like for my birthday

Monday is my 35th birthday. I’m mostly OK with that, but not as OK as I was with turning 30, which I thought was going to be a bigger deal, psychologically speaking I guess. And here’s why: When I fill out a survey now, I’m in the next age bracket. I don’t know why that’s a problem for me this time around, but it is. And instead of delving into why I find that troubling, let’s just look at some Stuff and Things with which I would like to be gifted.


A new lens for my camera. I’ve been eyeing the Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8, but it’s really expensive. I want something that will take great portraits, I think.


Another battery for my camera, because the battery always dies at the most inopportune of times. This has been on my wish list since October 2011. Maybe I need to just buy it for myself.


The Most Beautiful Boots.


Black boots to wear with all of my black clothing.

  1. Those boots are epic. Clearly we’re all in agreement, so you should probably go buy them for yourself right now & not wait for your birthday. Consider them your blogging shoes!
