All I wanted was for my wife to call me. She didn’t. Guess that should tell me something.
I need a drill and I want an automatic car starter…didn’t get either, dammit.
And.
Crack’d, I’m sorry 
{{{{{Crack’d}}}}}
I wanted a cheap winter coat. Instead I got a reall6y nice black leather coat. I know I shouldn’t complain. I just wanted something simple to wear on days when it was a little chilly. Now I have this nice coat and feel like I need to dress up a little to wear it.
A plane ticket to Virginia.
Well, I got everything on my list, I just really could’ve used a plane ticket to Virginia.
Oh well…I’ll be there this summer.
to iampunha!
I wanted a chainmail Huaberk.
I was hoping for a new Video Card.
I needed new Speakers for the home stero.
I’ve gotta get my hands on a new bookcase soon…
But I did get Gran Tourism 2, and got to see my daughter on her brand new bike… so it’s not a total wash.

We were really hoping for a DVD player.
We got a brand-new VCR… go fig!

I came out pretty good, actually. I guess that’s because I was transparent about what I wanted. Just anthing for camping. My tent and gear got flooded out this summer, and they closed the road in when I had to leave for home.
I lost it all and wailed for weeks.
Sorry d00d. That bites.
This is probably the worst xmas I’ve ever had. So much emotional stress goes into this holiday ya know? When i’m rich enough i’m just gonna go on vacation and get the hell out of her as soon as xmas starts. Not only do i hate this deadline for sending people gifts and cards and company and all that, i’ve been having some family problems and relationship problems. Its just hell I tell you! 
OH yeah, and what I wish I got for xmas but did not. I wish I got a vacation to get out of here!!
I wanted a virgin 60 degree 3100 engine block, but didn’t get it.
I wanted a waist length leather or courdoroy coat, but didn’t get it.
I wanted a wrench and socket set, which I did get. It’s a 71 piece socket set with a 18 piece wrench set. It’s not a full toolbox by any means, but it’s a damned good start. And it’s Craftsman, too. Quality!
I ruined some of my pants sledding, and I got a new pair.
I needed shirts, and I got 5.
My brother got me Tony Hawk 2! YES!
I think I did well.
I still want a clean 1988-94 J-body convertible chassis to use as a base… but most that are in good shape run, and most that don’t run aren’t in good shape. Shucks.

Somebody gave you an ECLIPSE for Christmas? Yikes almighty. That’s some friends in high places you got there…
I wanted Baldur’s Gate II. I got Dark Forces II. Oh, well. There’s hope for Father’s Day.
I wanted a husband that would pick up his dirty underwear and wet towel.
Silly me.
I wanted a graphite or wood flyfishing rod, or at least a fly-real, but didn’t get either… sigh guess I’ll just hafta get it tonight…
Sue Duhnym, I can pick up my own dirty underwear and wet towels :)~*
Peace on earth.
Well, maybe next year.
Umm, nothing!
Yeah, Euty, me too. You’d think after thousands of years, all of us would’ve got the message…
Still fendin’ off the stones and hoping here…
Well, I told my hubby I wanted a black leather jacket and where he could go to get the one I wanted (it was on sale cheap) but instead he got me a new 35mm camera to replace the one that broke, and a new scanner!!! I’m having so much fun with my scanner!!!
I glanced at the title of this thread and thought it said “What president did you want and not get?”
All you disenfranchised Florida Democrats, the line form on the left.
UPDATE:
My grandmother is going halfsies with me on an electric guitar as soon as I find the one I want.
The only thing left to long for is Metallica’s Garage Inc, which I asked my Met-fanatic BIL for – but my birthday’s coming up soon, so there’s still hope.
Euty, this one struck a chord in me. I don’t know why.
