Photography equipment and wishlist

Just thought I'd let you all know what I use to take my pictures, and what I'd like to get in the near future if I can afford it.

My current gear consists of:
1) Canon 20d
2) Canon 50mm 1.8f
3) Canon 28-135mm 3.5/5.6 IS
4) Canon 70-200mm 4.0L (My best lens)
5) Canon "Delux" tripod

I've occasionally borrowed the following lenses from a friend.
1) Canon 100mm Macro
2) Canon 200mm 2.8L
3) Canon 24-70mm 2.8L

My wish list right now is as follows, in the order that I'd like them. Note the list gets alot less sure the further I get down...
1) Canon 580EX II Flash
2) Canon 100mm macro lens
3) Some new tripod, of which I haven't figured out yet...
4) Canon 17-40mm 4.0L, or if I can afford it, 16-35mm 2.8L.
5) Upgrade my Canon 70-200mm to maybe a 2.8 or 2.8 IS.
6) Canon 50mm 1.4, or maybe a 1.2L if I can afford it.
7) Probably a Canon 65mm MP-E.

Somewhere along the way I'll also by Photoshop and probably lightroom, while I'm still a student and I can get the discounts... I would also like to get a new computer sometime, with lots of storage space, but that can wait for a bit... Hmmm... Someday I'll get it all figured out...
