Present List v.5.1

[sorcyress]

Most Recently Updated: 2009 08 22

Obligatory Disclaimer One: Oh, my dear darlings. I am so not expecting anything from anyone on my entire friends list, at all. I know that you lot love me, you do not have to prove it with trinkets.

Obligatory Disclaimer Two: I have no money. You will not get a present, so do not fear that I will surprise you with a present and make you feel guilty when you can't get me one in return.

Obligatory Disclaimer Three: This is in no way a comprehensive list of everything I want in the world. This is only a semi-comprehensive list of everything I *know* I want in the world. I like things!

Some things I would like at some point

Moreso than anything else, get me a copy of your favourite book. Write in the cover and the margins, highlight your favourite lines, whatever, just make it a part of you, and give it to me. More than anything, this is my preference for gifts.

Money for the Narbonic fund --Narbonic is just about the best comic ever, and the artist is doing bonus drawings for anyone who buys all six volumes together--otherwise, I would just be asking for the books separate. But yeah, I want to be able to buy these.

For my good pocketwatch to be fixed, already!

Dinosaurs. Yes, real ones. FIND THEM, DAMNIT!

Shaws gift cards

Dinosaur drawings --get me a drawing of a dinosaur done by a famous person. Or yourself. I collect 'em!

I hope to, over the summer and into the next year, be living on my own. To that end, there are some housewares and the like that I could use:

Shaws Gift cards, like I said. Or just hand me money with the caveat that it is grocery money. I will subsequently only use it to feed myself.
CVS gift cards, for tolietries and housewares.

Further adventures in kitchenware! I have two pots, a strainer, a pair of decent knives, a pasta spoon, and tongs. The top of the list for things I need is probably another pot, and a cast-iron frying pan (accept no substitutes!) However, since I'm likely to move into a furnished apartment, that's less necessary, but still. Good to have at some point.

Dunno, what else does a room of one's own require? Furniture? Look, if you have an old desk or futon or dresser or something, we can talk. But I won't need it until May at the *earliest*


I want a dustbuster. Not a full size vacuum. Not a roomba. A little tiny convenient dustbuster.
