I'd like a lot of money. Not to have power, or security, but to wake up one day, and to see that it's raining outside, and say to my friend, "Hey, you know what would go great with this day? Every single Yo la Tengo album." Then we would drive to Homer's and buy all ten or eight of their albums, and we would go back to my house and read or do a puzzle or converse and listen to Yo la Tengo all day. I wouldn't spend my money on really expensive things, or try to flash off, but I would buy things that would enhance life for a positive purpose, and most importantly, I would USE everything I would buy. No expensive workout equipment bought off of QVC collecting dust in the basement for me. I also wouldn't run out and get every new electronic device known to man. I could go get a ps3 or a xbox360 right now, but the only game that has remotely really interested me is Oblivion. The amount of time you spend playing that game though, it's crazy. I would probably rather spend my time on painting or a film. A video camera, now that is something I should get, even though I'm poor and I have a credit card bill to pay. I could afford it, but I want to get one that could be used exactly how I want it. It's not for stupid home videos of my kids growing up. I need one for skits and small movies I want to do. I have such a large body of ideas built up, it's a shame I'm not spending more time making them happen. Getting equipment seems to be the next logical step.
