Film for my photographic memory. šŸ˜ƒ Barring that, catnip, a new rubber mousie, a new scratching post, and maybe the ability to look dignified while using catnipā€¦ (Upon preview) So, Johnny, how YOU doing? ---

I want _Everquest_ to die a horrible death. Or, come to think of it, it doesnā€™t need to be horrible ā€“ just die. ---

Howā€™s those for mundane? All Iā€™d like is enough money to be able to afford to hire a rubbish skip so I can clean up my property, murder a privet hedge, and make myself and my neighbours happy. ---

I want a garage to put my powertools in so I can use them, otherwise I may have to steal Sheraā€™s garage. Or maybe just buy it off her. ---

Something more than I got last year. Last Christmas I got a book. Period. One year I got a pen that leaked, jeans 2 sizes too big, and a package of socks that my F-I-L had already rejected. FWIW, I donā€™t much like Christmas. ---

Dental work. Really. And I would like the things that my kids have asked for, as the hope of actually buying them is slim-to-nil. I also want new jeans and a nice shirt for Mr zoogirl. Peace would be very good. I will shortly be the mother of two teenagers, both boys, when Kid, The Younger turns thirteen in January. A world with no war strikes me as an excellent Christmas Wish! For myself, besides the afore-mentioned teeth, Iā€™ll take critters of any kind, and a new shed, insulated and with a heater, for the larger pets that we already have. And finally, Iā€™d like all the Dopers to get their Christmas wishes!šŸ™‚ ---

There are a few things I would like for Christmas **Things that are actually realistic** A big furry, fluffy, cuddley stuffed animal of some sort šŸ™‚ A DVD player would be nice along with that so would a PP2 and Final Fantasy X (but it hasnt came out yet ā˜¹ ) Some clothes would be nice Maybe some kind of jewlery A few movies like ā€œThe Breaksā€ ā€œBasketballā€ and ā€œSave the Last Danceā€ **Very wishful things** Another puppy or a ā€œgulpā€ cat (so my other will have a playmate of course) A bigger apartment would be great Something my S.O. is terribly afraid of but ā€¦ I can wait for that but it doesnt mean I cant still wish for it šŸ˜‰ Oh and for my car to finally be paid off ---

A new manager. Or, better yet, our old manager back. No fruitcake. Snow that arrives on Christmas Eve, is off the streets by Christmas morning, and all melts on New Yearā€™s Day. My kids to NOT say, ā€œThatā€™s it?ā€ Peace on Earth. Good will towards men, and women. And the Pink Floyd box set. ---
