Send off (or call) for as many seed catalogs as you can obtain.
Look at them. Drool.
Here's where responsibility comes in.
Some pretties are hard to grow from seed or hard to grow in your
climate.
Some aren't.
You'll probably like the first kind more, in pictures.
Tick off everything you like.
Gasp when you see how many seeds and the total.
Depending on budget, get all of them and overdose or try to prioritize
-- a difficult job. Sensibly you'd go for stuff that a beginner could
raise well, but I know you'll throw in that beauty you Just Have To Have.
Finalize your orders, and call (or mail) them in.
Wait.
While waiting, or better, before, decide how you are going to start
them.
That's a whole nother issue.
