yeah. With some friends.

I'd totally wanna work at a place like that...if I was forced into retail again. LOL I despise retail, but if it is something I'm passionate about, I'd work there. We don't have record stores here anymore...and Half Price Books doesn't count. I have found some FM and related records though at HPB. I miss Sound Warehouse..ah heck, I just miss the 80's.

once the legal BS is decided and finished in regards to my Mother's death I am gonna go to OKC and drive to 89th & Western and see who actually owns Happy Days Records and see if they would like to sell their store...

I can always use 10000's of vinyl LP's to fill in the gaps on my music collection.

wellllll... i'd like to fly across the world in a golden ball, but unlike Stevie, i'd see ALL the cities! world travel. totally! and i'd like to have a few small, modest homes, like one in florence, one in barcelona, a flat in london, montreal. that'd be tits!

i'd also love to allow my parents to retire. they really need it! and i'd finish paying for my sister's school, maybe put together an education fund for my niece and nephews. and i'd love to be able to buy random expensive gifts for my friends. like an iPod nano for whoever wanted one! i've always said that i'd like to have the money to do little things like that!

the rest would go to rent boys. rent boys from around the world!

that's good, you can sell tickets for the concerts I'll be organising

Ow. We need those shops, but there are fewer and fewer. Internet is their 'new' enemy, it seems. But nothing beats visiting one of those shops and keeping real vinyl in your hands.

holy f*ck. Temptation - New Order on the radio.

Well, this ain't crazy, but I would first pay off my student loans. That's a small fortune indeed. Then I'd buy a nice, modest (but fabulous of course) house and a new car, ours is on its last leg. Hey, these are things I need! I can't even think about splurging, it's become a foreign concept to me.

Oh yeah, I'd also put my husband the rest of the way through grad school. Yet another practical move from me .
