Go couch, choose couch. A good one will last you for years.

Couch!

[owenthurman]

What would you do with a couch? You can't eat it. You can't even sit on it and munch on chocolate unless you've also bought chocolate. Get chocolate.

Or vacation.

other!!!

Oh, I can't work out how to do the poll bit. Boo.

chocolate

A very little bit. Of really GOOD stuff.


yet another cd of country music

Nope. Download it from iTunes or something.


Community season 2

... maybe. Hire it and then see if it's worth it.


the Crazy Cat Lady action figure (complete with cats)

... hehehe.

a proper couch that is comfortable to sit on

GO, COUCH, GO. BUY A COUCH.
But take your time. It's not urgent. Look around for one you REALLY like.

a pony

Hire one.


Leverage season 2

... See 'Community.'


a holiday in New Zealand, earthquakes and all

I'm with Mum - Go to England!


bribery, in efforts to find a better job

... but who would you bribe? You have to meet them first...


a Crazy Cat Lady tshirt (assuming one exists)

Make one.

more chocolate

No. You've already had enough earlier. :)

Georgette Heyer novels

... (yes, so I can borrow them.)


charity, good works, savings, investments, and sensible things like that

Yep. Invest in yourself, emotionally and financially, etc. :)

I said couch. And I still think that's a good idea. But - I also think DON'T BUY STUFF! Go somewhere! Go on a cruuuuise! Go to the UK! Go on a mission trip, or is there engineers (editors!) without borders? Do that. Go to the theatre. Take me with you! Do another play and save your money by rehearsing rather than watching DVDs and buying new ones to watch. Move to Perth for a while - spend your money on that! Take yourself off to cons (is that right?) somewhere!

I'll join you on a couch-hunting expedition. I'll bet I can even find spears!

I ticked chocolate and couch. Then I also ticked pony, because doing nothing but sitting on the couch eating chocolate would be bad for your health, and the pony will give you exercise. :)

[redsixwing]

If you get the right pony, it can double as a couch.

Charity, chocolate, couch. Chocolate.

All these things are good. :D

COUCH!!

[immer_am_lesen]

When getting your new couch (because it would be the best thing to buy yourself), do take care to choose it properly after a good long trial-sitting.
Unlike my friend who bought one after thinking it was comfy to sit on in the store, only to find once home, that after about ten minutes it got very, very uncomfortable, with bits digging in etc. Not fun.
So yes- take a book, and sit for half an hour or so, so you know how it'll feel when you're sitting on it at home, 'normally'... :-) My friend would tell you it's definitely worth it!
And then, buy chocolate to enjoy eating while on the couch. After buying a nice throwrug with which to protect your couch from chocolate and catfur.
