1. E-reader. I'm not reading 4-5 books a month as I did before but it reignited my desire to read after losing it in college (plus: it's way cheaper).
2. Chemex. I was used to burnt gas station coffee and it gave me a new hobby.
3. First DSLR as well. Helped me think about composition more in my paintings, as well as contrast. I haven't touched a camera in years though. Little opportunity or desire.

Nespresso Vertuo. Mechanical keyboard. Honda Accord Hybrid.

1. Mitsubishi Lancer
2. Sony Ericsson P900
3. S2 Walkman

1. inline skates - it is gift from god, period.

2. Supersonic cleaner - it can clean anything, it is simply amazing.

3. Lumix GX80, a M43 camera - it has everything right, the grip, the compactness, easy menu, the mechanical switches..etc on top of that, inexpensive. It allows me to carry it as if it is an action camera.

1. A bicycle. I have saved so much money over the years on cars, gym memberships, and therapy. I ride every day for most destinations, and I think that getting regular exercise has saved me from the aches and pains of middle age. I still haven't experienced the horrors that await (if Lemmings are to be believed) of turning 30. And it makes getting places enjoyable.
2. My first computer, an Amiga 500. I learned so much about software, IT, and human nature by persevering with an oddball (for the U.S.) computer.
3. A trailer sailboat. Aside from the hours spent on the water, along with it comes a whole raft (hah!) of hobbies/side pursuits: Marlinspike work, sewing, electrical wiring, navigation, weather forecasting, fiberglass repair, radio communications, and such. Strangely enough, it also served me well through years of low income, by providing a lot of hours of enjoyment for the money.

1.Rock tumbler

2. Phonograph

3. IPhone

1. Large tatami bed
2. Bicycle
3. Kitchen knife (and sharpening tools)

1. A plot of land in a place I like. Nothing fancy or huge, just a place to be by myself and enjoy a nice bonfire away from people.

2. Headphones. The old clunky ones that cover your whole ears. I love them! They feel like a hug and I use them all the time while listening to spooky stories. Bought them in a sale about four years ago.

3. A hello kitty backpack. Bought it as a birthday gift for a friend's daughter, we had a fallout and I kept it. One day I needed a clean backpack and this was on hand so I grabbed it in a whim and have been using it ever since. I have a pair of Columbia, silver ridge and tetons laying around but this fluffy cute backpack makes me so happy and has the perfect size.

1. My horse, Lola. She’s an amazing 9yo grey quarter horse mare. “Retired” barrel racer, she’s the perfect trail/ranch horse. She’s got the best quirky and silly demeanor, she loves to hang out, and she’s playful, but never gets crazy under saddle.

2. My guitar. 2012 PRS 513. I absolutely love that guitar, and it got me back into playing after almost 20 years off. It’s my “do everything” guitar, and the difference in sounds between pickup combinations makes it incredibly versatile.

3. A good mattress. I spend a solid 1/3 of my life sleeping (or trying to) and a great mattress helps so much.

1. 8 Sleep Bed—it’s liquid cooled and heated based on your sleep stage. I know it’s expensive, but the sleep it’s given me has been unrivaled by anything else I’ve ever used to regulate my sleep. I work shifts so good sleep is priceless. You spend a third of your life asleep, so it’s worth an investment.
2. Hue lights for my entire home—privacy issues aside, it’s a game changing investment. We replaced the recessed lighting with recessed hue lighting fixtures as well. It’s insane how having multiple lighting settings and colors for times of the day/moods can change your entire mindset.
3. Home gym—if I were pressed for one component it would be the power cage and Olympic bar, but investing in a fully functional home gym has given me much more in return than what I’ve put into it (whether that be physical work building equipment or money).

1. 2002 Honda CRV I got nearly a year ago, been a fixer upper, but otherwise in fantastic condition for the price I bought it at.

2. Some iFixIt toolkit I bought off of Amazon, has come in real handy for many different things.

3. An acoustic guitar (Fender Dreadnought) I got at guitar center for nearly 200 bucks I think? Specifically wanted metallic strings, and it certainly has that. The high E string breaks a lot if I change tuning too often, but otherwise sounds fantastic and feels great to play.
