SURE!!!
Email me (it’s in my profile) if you’re serious.
(Last year this thread turned into this kind of thing … “I’ve got it - you want it?”
Love, or even sex would be nice.
But I may get myself a nice Rollie.
I already got what I really wanted: the news that my father doesn’t have cancer anymore.
So now I can be greedy.
I want a Conair Steamer so I don’t look like the cats have bunched up all my clothes and then shed on them, even though that is frequently true.
I also want the first season of Twilight Zone DVDs, and Animal Crossing for the DS.
I also want to buy my boyfriend a charcoal three piece suit and make him wear it all the time. As a Christmas present to me. drools
A nap. A long nap. And to sleep in late.
Without the need to cook a meal for anyone; run an errand for my mother; elder-sit my mother-in-law; and without worrying where teenage son is at and what he’s doing. Added bonus — no calls from work.
After nap, maybe watch some TV, uniterrupted.
ho ho ho
Unfortunately, my dad found out yesterday that they are having a hard time stopping his cancer from its’ march up his spine. Dammit.
BUT, I’m still greedy.
I want a deep freeze, smallish. Sears has a nice one for $150ish
An over-stove microwave/exhaust fan
Oodles of kitchen stuff, such as new measuring cups and spoons, more Silpats, new baking sheets, new saucepans
MP3 player - nothing fancy schmancy though
A painter/plasterer to finish my living room that my nephew started but seemingly can get around to finish
Fuzzy slippers, preferrably with a goofy character on them
Numerous CD’s from metal to blues to classical
BN gift cards are nifty too
Last night we did the official name exchange and I received my soon to be BIL. Who I am not a fan of. He was too busy yakking to fill out his list, so he gets what he gets. ::evil smilie::
A’s on my exams…and an end to my writers block.
Love would be nice but you said “Christmas Present” not “miracle”.
Other then that, I can’t think of anything.
I must start by saying that I already got my most important Christmas present: I paid off my debt. This will make other presents more likely.
That said, I would like…
My father to have his health and memory back.
My sister and brother-in-law to have their debts paid off.
A trip to Washington. 
A trip to Montréal.
A trip to Sault Ste Marie.
A trip to the west coast, New Zealand, and Australia, ending in Europe un time to catch UK 2006 in Florence. (These last could be conveniently bundled on a round-the-world ticket.)
The rest of the wardrobe makeover I am planning.
That hardcover compilation of Every Calvin-&-Hobbes Cartoon Ever.
A complete computer cleaning and upgrade.
A flatscreen TV of moderate size to fit my small apartment.
DVDs, DVDs, DVDs: all the Warner Brothers collections (Looney Toons, etc), especially the ones with What’s Opera Doc and The Rabbit Of Seville; all the Simpsons collections, the Heavy Metal movie, Cool World, the copmplete Lord of the Rings, all the Harry Potter movies, all the Star Wars movies, and I’m sure there’s more.
Tthat might not be the best thing to say…
Hey, everyone survived, right?
Seriously, you and Johnny will have to try harder to scare me off…
Well, no-one’s even mentioned that after you get out of the airport, you encounter the writhing tentacles of the Evil Death Highways of Doom known as the King’s Highways No. 409, 401 and 427…
[sub]…so do what I do: take the airport bus and let a professional driver deal with the suckers…[/sub]
I would like a power drill.
And some kind of Waterpik-like device, for improved gum care.
My Og, I’ve become middle-aged! What the hell?!
I’ve changed my mind. All I want for Christmas is for my mom to get a new job.
And for someone to poke her current boss with sharp sticks.
hehe. That sounds like the sort of thing I used to say to the boys when they’d ask me what I wanted for Mothers’ Day.
I want to meet a nice guy and hopefully get laid properly.
Not that I mock your wish–it sounds plenty good to me, too–but the notion of getting laid properly has always amused me. A friend of mine has been known to say it, but I never dare ask exactly what her partners have been doing wrong.
Honestly, I don’t really want anything. Stuff for Christmas has always bugged me. I suppose I do want, in keeping with the rest of the thread, for my one friend to not treat my best friend like shit, but I think she is happy regardless.
Of course, my mother wants to wrap something, so I am probably going to get money, CDs, power tools, or a new soldering system. Money or nothing would do me fine, but she believes otherwise.
And Rushgeekgirl, are you serious? I am supposing you are, but can’t quite tell.
A Nooka Zot watch and/or one of those combination Swiss Army knife deals. Doesn’t really matter if I don’t get either, but it would be nice.
Is ‘world peace’ taken?
A mother who makes her resentment of her children less obvious. And enough money to pay off my crushing credit card debt.
And a couple DVDs I’ve wanted lately – Little Shop of Horrors and Harold and Kumar go to White Castle.
A mug of hot chocolate, a pint of mulled cider, some eggnog, a kiss under the mistletoe, and carolling in the streets.
I’ve got a whole wish list up on Amazon–packed with books and CDs, mostly–but in the end I’d like to wake up on Christmas morning sleepy, warm, and relaxed with a smile.
