First of all, congrats on getting your first B/P. You will become addicted in short order, that's for sure.
As for your supply list, the only thing I would make sure you have is a bowl big enough for your snake to soak in should he or she feel the desire to do that. Other than that, making sure the temps and humidity are right beforehand is absolutely key to ensuring a smooth transition to your snake's new home. I try not to clutter their tanks too much so they have room to move about and so forth without feeling cramped. That's just me though. My Red Tail Boa likes having a cluttered tank vs. a somewhat empty one as he loves to slither around everything and bask on practically everything in the tank. I find my Balls are just the opposite though and prefer some free space to roam.
Anyways, good luck and congrats agaon on your first snake. it sounds like you've got a great plan going and your attention to detail only furhter reinforces the fact you'll make and excellent Ball Python owner! Make sure you post pics when you get it home!
