I’ve sent my email to Omega, but neglected to mention that I’m willing to ship overseas if necessary.
I’m getting back into playing my Fender Stratocaster, so could probably use guitar strings and a new 1/4" patch cord. Or you could send me a guitar notebook of music you like.
The reason I’m getting back into playing is because of my baby daughter, now 7 months old, who loves music. But I hate baby music. So there However, if you know of any non-english baby music, that’d be cool, because then I can just mangle another language without being aware I’m singing something incredibly banal.
My day job is writing for television, and I already have a tiny TV clock, but you can come up with something interesting, right?
AAAAAand finally, I like motorcycles even though I’m bereft on one at the moment, and I like putting bumper stickers on my bicycle (current motif: “I screw robots”)
I like bath stuff, Hello Kitty, any of that girly crap…I’m just getting into knitting, so any supplies would be great. Anything local would be neato mosquito.
I really enjoy salsa/chutney/dips, exc. The spicier the better.
I love cute pens (I currently have one in the shape of chopsticks with a piece of sushi on the end) and if you run accross any that just make you laugh, then it is great.
I love flowery stuff, especially stuff with orchids, lillies, and peonies on them. (or smelling like them)
I love candy (chocolate, sour, sweet, powdery, exc. except licorice) so if you have any kinds over there that are different/strange, then send them over.
Basics: My favorite colors are green and purple; I hate stuff that makes loud noises; my favorite scents are orchid, vanilla, and peppermint; I wear a size small shirt; and I have a fishtank and a miniature daschound.
Also - I was the organizer of the White Elephant exchange, so I have a list of people who’ve been naughty (that is, received a package, but didn’t bother to ship one) which I would be happy to share with the organizer if they’re interested, for whatever reason.
Okey Dokey!
I like:
fuzzy socks
bubble bath
Pink stuff
purple stuff
kitchen stuff with fruit on it that doesn’t look like genitalia
Discworld books except Soul Music and the first 2 (can be used)
flavored tea
Would anybody be opposed to receiving homemade cookies along with their gift? I can make some pretty good diabetic ones too.
You know what else? I’m STILL Planning on sending you something. Is your address still the same?
I haven’t forgotten about you. I keep your address and every now and again look at it and sigh and say to myself “Geez, Idle, your first Secret Santa two years ago that you participate in, and you couldn’t even send something out in time.”
And then, on the heels of that I always think “I’m going to make it up to her. Oh yeah I will”. Cause see, I haven’t forgotten.
I haven’t forgotten yet.
I swear I will make it up to you and send you something if it’s the last thing I do on earth. : p
Idle Thoughts (who didn’t participate in last years SS nor will be participating in this years nor will be participating in any future ones until he mails his gift to tarragon918)
Firstly, Idle Thoughts, please don’t worry about that any more, okay?
I’m in for 2005, yay! Here’s some of my likes: almost all things chocolate, coffee mugs, anything Star Trek, little knick-knacky type things. And just in case SS might be from the Orlando FL or Anaheim CA area (LOL yeah, Disney related!), I’m looking for a key chain with a small, stuffed Donald Duck. I’ve got Mickey and Minnie - the stuffed toy is about 4 inches tall, btw. LOL I hope that’s not too specific, but just in case.
I can’t help but worry. That Christmas I even got you one of those boxes with the cheese and sausage that was on sale, but didn’t have enough to send it.
By the time it finally dawned on me that I wasn’t going to make it in time, it was already the 25th, and by then I just felt really bad.
For me: Anything related to any Disney theme park (except Tokyo) or Los Angeles/Anaheim, CA-area sports teams. Or perhaps even just a set of postcards from your town/city/country would be neat! Thanks.
I’ve really enjoyed getting stuff that tells something about the recipient’s native environment. A few years ago, I got the Sunday edition of the New York Times with little sticky notes - a commentary on articles. It was awesome.
Shirley Ujest, I haven’t gotten an email from you yet. Both of the emails in this thread are the same so I don’t know what happened. If you’ve signed up all ready and don’t see your name here, then let me know.
Alice in Wonderland, feel free to send along the list of the naughty people if you want. Remember, by signing up, you all agree to receiveand send. If you are unable to send something out in a reasonable time, please send an email ASAP. Oh, and no sending anything that’s alive and/or evil. Inkleberry, I’m looking at you. This is secret santa, not secret satan.
Ok Hugh, I remember this from last year. Could you please give an example of what you mean by artistic representations of skulls? The odds of me being your secret santa two years in a row are fairly slim so I am asking out of personal curiosity. That had me baffled last year while shopping.
Also, I am going to send my email and I can send overseas.
I like smell-good stuff, interesting coffee and tea, weird t-shirts (large) and books of the unusual variety.
I dislike ketchup and spiders.
However, if you know of any non-english baby music, that’d be cool, because then I can just mangle another language without being aware I’m singing something incredibly banal.
This is secret santa, not secret satan.
