Like I said, I've been thinking a lot about my future home, what with the possibilty of me moving out and being on my own actually reachable at this point.
First and foremost, I would like for the home to be located somewhere safe and relatively private. I don't need prying neighbor eyes...ew...
Secondly, I want a "nerd cave." Posters of all my geekiness all over the walls, all of my statutes and cool little geeky knickknacks spread out all over it, and an enormous desk where I can draw, write, or work on my computer. Enormous bookshelves to accommodate my library, a comfy chair in which to read them, and ample lighting. If it's done right, I'll never want to leave =)
Thirdly, one of my few complaints about my current house is the size of the laundry room (or lack thereof). Now, I don't love going to laundromats, but the one thing I did like about them is those huge tables they put out for folding clothing. I would love a laundry room that has enough space in it not just for my washer and dryer, but also for one of those tables. Also, lots of storage.
That's another hope/dream: lots of storage!
Another something awesome would be an outdoor enclosure off the side of the house for my kitties. Jack-Jack is going stir-crazy being locked inside all the time, so I wouldn't mind paying someone to build an outdoor habitat where I could just let him out and he can roam, climb trees, and run around like he used to. And they'll be safe from predators that way, too.
Now, for the ridiculousness / awesomeness! I want a "Weasley Clock." There's no guarantee that I'll be near to any of your or my family when I get my own place, so I'd like to know how all of your are doing. Even with all of the technological advances, things slip through the cracks, and one can go from "Hunkey-Dorey" to "Mortal Peril" in less than a second. There would be hands for all of my immediate family, all of my extended family, all of my pets, and of course all of you. Hm...I might need more than one clock...
Oh! Also! I want the ceiling of my bedroom to have the ability to show me the stars at night, the way they look in the actual sky. Like the ceiling in the Great Hall at Hogwarts. I would want it timed to after nightfall and for when I turn off my lights. In that same sense, it would be great if the ceiling in my living room would reflect the way the sky looked outside. That way I could get lots of lighting in there if I wanted, and I could know more accurately what the weather is doing outside. Again, I would want it to be on my will. I don't want to be watching movies while there's a storm raging above my head.
And a TARDIS in the backyard...with a Doctor to go along with it. Preferably Doctor #11...
