I know it’s kind of early for this question… ah well.

I want a kitten, a maid, a male stripper, a new set of tits, a new CD player, a new brain, and a town car.

I want a car, some cds, a fuzzy sweater, a new set of tits, a skinnier body, my own house, flannel pants, some self-esteem, a cd burner, a digital camera, and a real olympus camera.

I wish for a thing that I could  
connect my Pokemon game to my  
Linux machine and save multiple  
games in a file(s), or a way to  
transfer Pokemon from the gameboy  
to my Linux machine, so I don’t  
have to have another gameboy  
to hook it up to.

A Sony DVCam commercial quality  
video camera with firewire  
and mac/Unix/Linux video editing  
software and DVD burning utilities.

New Pooh and Tigger overalls.

For nicer people in the world  
who are not mean and will play  
with you nice and not say bad  
mean things, and quit being  
too growed up to do fun happy  
things anymore.

For every doper in the world (except **Anniz** ) to realize that you don’t have to press return at the end of the reply window:)

::Pointedly (no pun intended) not going to ask about gasser or racin’s requests for new tits::

I want **nothing** for Christmas!

I’m not Christian, dammit, but nobody in the States will let you ignore the holiday.

Peace on earth.

Goodwill towards all, at the very least.

That all those people in the area of Afghanistan can come home and celebrate Christmas/Hanukah/Ramadan/Tet/\<fill in religion of choice’s holiday\> next year?

Failing that, as many portraits of Grant as I can get.

I want a Makita Mitre saw. That’s all and I will be the happiest girl in the world if I get that. My power tool collection will then be complete. Yeah!

For my December 25th 47th Birthday, I’m going to see By Jeeves on Broadway and get lots of souvenirs. Then I will go to Virgin and get lots of CDS and eat at the Stardust Diner and see Forbidden Broadway again.

I want the lot on Oak Drive to be deeded to us free and clear so we (hubby and I) can build our retirement home and live there happily ever after with my tits. 😃 We’re getting the lot - that’s not the issue. I’d like someone to buy it _for_ us… failing that, I’d love a better computer than the 200MHz piece o’crap that’s starting to die on me. And chocolate.

Things that would make me the happiest duck on earth: DVD player, cable internet, hmm…think I’m okay in the tit department, an Intel Pro PC Webcam, Windows XP/XP Plus.

Things I’ll be happy with (and will probably/hopefully get): a new pair of moccasin slippers, a wife with a healthy back, a new pair of jeans.

What I’d like is a 98 3000GT VR-4. I really don’t see that happening though. In all reality I’d like a HDTV and a nice flatscreen monitor for my computer maybe a bigger hard drive also.

A Titanium Powerbook.

But not yet. I want it when it comes with the DVD-CDRW combo drive.

And preferably, when the 1.6gig G5 is ready, and small and cool enough to fit inside.
