It’s 11:42. Can I even call this a Monday evening post? I plan on trying despite the fact that most of you won’t read it until sometime tomorrow.

You see, I work 9 to 11 on Mondays… which means I come home proper crabby, just shy of midnight.

Tonight is no different. The only thing tempering my mood? The paycheck coming my way at this week’s end. In light of that ohsowonderful fact, I’ve got a bit of a “wish list” dancing between my ears (you know, where my brain is).

A book scarf! I’ve been lusting over this little biddy since I saw a Harry Potter version draped about my friend Alex‘s neck a few weeks ago.

There’s currently wonderful Jane Eyre, A Tale of Two Cities (for which my love knows no bounds), and Pride & Prejudice excerpts in-stock…though the inventory changes along with the seller’s mood, so check back often!

This mug. Honestly, I need it.

I really hoped to compile a list that would have everyone drooling over each item (and not to mention, my tastes)…but this probably appeals to a rather select population. So perhaps instead of convincing you that you need it, one of you kind, kind souls will just procure it as swiftly as possible, and mail it my way.

Customized Nike trainers. Now, I need another pair of tennis shoes like I need a hole in my head (cue my mother nodding along in affirmation).Unfortunately, such reasoning has never stopped a woman from dreaming, especially not this one!

How could you not? Seriously, they’re too cute.

I first spotted them on Rosie The Londoner’s Instagram, but she’s mentioned them on her blog today, along with where to go to get our grubby little fingers on them!

What’s on everyone else’s list? Hurry, before I realize I need to pay rent!
