In no particular order:

A set of Sony wireless 7.1 headphones, Sep/Oct. Though nobody else must EVER see me wearing them :oops:

Games: Batman: Arkham City in October, Uncharted 3, and potentially Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, both in November.

My week off to play Arkham City.

And since I'm now in a thematic rut: the upcoming animated Batman DVD and comic reboot, though the last is curiosity mostly.

The return of the Nikita TV show, USA 23/09/11 ;)

The specifications of the upcoming Amazon hardware.

My Dec/Jan time off work :D
...

Big or small, what are you looking forward to? Maybe expect questions if it's something saucy ;)

My pay rise in (I think) October.
Getting the car wing sprayed and fitted.
Getting the car battery tray welded in place.

Yeah, we're due a pay rise or back pay... It's one of the two but I've forgotten since it's been due for the last ten years or so ;)

My new sofa! The old one is broken and doing my back in.

The new one has a decent, high back, reclines and has pop-out foot rests. Can't wait until it is finished.

I am now also looking forward to the switch unit I just bought on eBay for the drivers seat of my car.
This means my seat with it's whizzy 6-way power motors will hopefully function again.
New unit: £73.02 + £20 P&P.
Second hand unit: £14.14 + £5.89 P&P.
Saving: £72.99
:D

Moving to a bigger house. I brushed past the coats hanging on the bannisters and knocked them off four times last weekend and it's driving me crazy. Not having to keep the pushchair in the car will be awesome, too.

I'm currently looking forward to the recovery truck arriving to get me and my car on the road again. I'm looking forward to getting to the root of this electrical problem even more. It's like it's been built by Italians. ;-)

I may be going to New Orleans this coming weekend, 26 hour round trip in a pickup truck, weekend of drinking, music and sightseeing. The following weekend I hope to be going to an American College Football game in North Carolina with my girlfriend's family, then I'll be flying back home to start my first year back in full time education since 2006. :D

It's one of my greatest regrets, not seeing New Orleans before Katrina arrived.
Enjoy! I want pics!

I think I'll be buying some disposable cameras, wasn't able to find my batteries or charger before I left the Uk so haven't brought my DSLR.

The impending birth of a even smaller Lumb!

On a more regular note, Skyrim and Mass Effect 3.
