Mac mini
The current want: a small home server so I can stop renting a VPS for work that belongs here.
Wishlist
Things I hope to get someday
iPhone Duo
Still on the list. The follow-up, after finally owning an iPhone at all.
Apple Magic Trackpad
A large Apple trackpad for the Mac, instead of doing everything with a mouse.
reMarkable Paper Pro
A paper tablet for notes and reading, without a glowing phone or iPad screen.
Auto Height Adjustable Table
A desk that can sit or stand, instead of staying locked at one height for the whole day.
Electric Bicycle
A quiet electric bicycle for short trips, without going back to a car or a sports bike.
Vivobarefoot Magna Forest ESC Men's
Barefoot hiking boots for walking outside, in tan.
Completed
9Things that used to live on this list.
Premium Wireless Keyboard and Mouse
Eight or nine years ago a good wireless keyboard and mouse felt like a luxury I could not stretch to. I have them now.
MacBook Pro
Apple hardware sat in the same far-away pile. This was the machine I kept wanting when buying one still felt out of reach.
Ultra-Wide Monitor
More screen, let alone an ultra-wide, was not a serious option when the desk and the budget were both small.
iPhone
A couple of years ago an iPhone was still a dream. I have one now, which still surprises the version of me who wrote it on a list.
iPad Pro
The large iPad lived next to the MacBook on that old list of Apple things I did not buy.
Comfortable Chair
Same stretch of years: I wanted a chair I could sit in for real work, and I did not have the money for a good one.
Air Conditioner
A couple of years ago I could not see myself paying for the unit or the electricity bill. It is in the house now.
Wi-Fi Printer
A printer on the network, without a cable ritual. It felt like a home-office extra I would get later.
Wi-Fi Speakers
Music in the room without a wire. Another small home thing I skipped until I could.
Canceled
2Dreams I carried for years, then stopped wanting.
Black Sedan Car
A black sedan was the grown-up car I pictured when I had nothing like it. I do not want that object anymore.
Sports Bike
The sports bike was the other half of that old dream: speed, noise, looking the part. The want cooled off, and I left it.
