So the 'what do you want for your birthday?' question arises yet again. Now, since I've been kind in the past (and semi-helpfully been trying to keep a list so that I could answer this very question), I'll provide a semi-useful list of material goods (and otherwise) that I might just appreciate. Realistically, no pressure or anything! I really don't absolutely need anything.
I wish I could have it but it might just be difficult to find/get:
-True love! 😉
-A trip around the world! 🙂
-Je me souviens 3 CD Boxed set of Quebecois music
-Nice Girls Don't Explode (on DVD if at all possible, but VHS will do — remarkably I still want this movie after seeing it when I was a teen and loving it)
Not available yet:
-Perfection! 🙂
-That '70s Show seasons 7 and 8
-Gilmore Girls 7th Season
-Matched Hardcover Boxed set of all the Harry Potter Books (this won't be out for a while I imagine… and I hope it does exist eventually though!)
-Matched set of all the Harry Potter films (they haven't even been filmed yet so this would take a while!)
More realistic items:
-to see you [aka. my friends] sometime soon (or hear from you or etc.)
-the use of GoodSearch.com to benefit good causes like Circle K International
Books:
-Mercedes Lackey books, particularly the rest of the Heralds of Valdemar books I don't already have (feel free to get these second hand) which
-Black Bird by Michel Basilieres (one of my FAVE books… I'd like this one new if possible. Why? 'cause I owned it, lent it away and it never returned… and I'd like a new copy anyhow)
–
-Gonzo's Little Book of Motivation by David A. Kelly
-How I Raised Myself from Failure to Success in Selling
-How to Have Confidence and Power in Dealing with People
-Personality Plus
-Five Love Languages
-Launching a Leadership Revolution
-Rich Dad, Poor Dad (and/or other Robert Kiyosaki books)
CDs:
-Arrogant Worms
-Barenaked for the Holidays (yes it's a BNL Holiday CD, and I know it's totally the wrong time of year… but I've wanted this for a while)
DVDs:
-That '70s Show Season 6 (I own the first 5 seasons I may as well complete the set!)
-Johnny Depp movies
-Topher Grace movies
-Natalie Portman movies
-Quebecois movies
Other:
-A IHateCilantro magnet! http://www.cafepress.com/cilantrono.56979119 (I really hate cilantro, but don't particularly need any of the other swag… I do think the magnet would look great at my desk!
-paypal money earmarked toward last.fm subscription?
-donations to charities I believe in
-surprises that you'd think I'd appreciate.
Really, presents/material things aren't necessary… I have much of what I need already. But since people have been asking… the list should help.
