shopping list

[mudslide]

This list is for myself, really... just a list of things that I want, so that I can arrange them in terms of priority and so that I can distinguish between "wants" and "needs". Technically these are mostly "wants", but I think that listing them together will help me see what is acceptable and what is completely frivolous/excessive.

Oh, and the list isn't everything that I *WILL* buy... otherwise I'd be dead broke. It's my list of things to choose from, if I'll pick any at all, hehe.

• Triathlon wet suit... because i'll need one when I enter events in 2008. Prices are around $130 for what I need... I don't feel like spending $350 for a suit that I'll wear 4-5 times a year.

• If I'm doing mostly warmer-water swims, then I can simply opt for tri-shorts instead of a full wet suit... that way I can use it for all 3 parts of the race.
  

• Kingston class 6 SDHC 8Gb card... $79.99 at Memory Express!

• 10-20mm Sigma wide angle lens for my Nikon D80 DSLR camera... $650 brand new but eBay might be able to help me with that.
  

I can't think of anything else right now, but this list has been VERY helpful already. I've eliminated more than half of the things that I was considering earlier... because they now seem so shallow and silly.
