The Rules: Make a post that contains your list of holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fun ("I'd love a Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want this year is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.

First, you have to know that... I don't want a lot of stuff. I occasionally say, "Ooh, that's shiny. I'd like to have that," but I never really feel deprived. I don't need gizmos and gadgets. I have a roof over my head, enough clothes to keep warm, enough food in the fridge, a wife who loves me, and friends who make life fun. What more do I need?

Well, I don't NEED anything else, but in the spirit of trying to be a tiny bit holiday-greedy, here goes:

1. An iPod. I've never had one. Seriously. The last music player I owned was a cheap CD player that I brought with me on an Army assignment, and I trashed it. Oh, and I like red.

2. Good loose-leaf teas. Very fond of darjeeling and Earl Grey.

3. A newsie-style hat. I almost bought one last year. Found it while Christmas shopping for other people. The styles I loved didn't have any hats in my size. I still want one. (I'm a 7 1/4.)

4. A blu-ray player. Yes, I know, that's a huge thing to even put on a list, but the prompt said anything.

5. The new Star Trek soundtrack.

6. A command-gold Starfleet uniform, TOS or ST:XI style. Or maybe some delightful hybrid of the two. Huh. *ponders*

7. Some *really* good bourbon.

8. A new laptop. Smaller one that I can bring places with me more easily. Blue or red. :D

9. Snow.

10. To see a random act of kindness between two strangers.

11. For my friends to ambush me and drag me off to kareoke night.

iPods are expensive; there's a lot of other stuff out there that make good players, many covered at http://anythingbutipod.com

Gah, I DO check, but LJ has been weird for the past 24 hours or so, and wasn't giving me notifications OR letting me see my new in-box messages. I've got it now! THANK YOU!!!!

You bet your ass, Captain. ^__^ I tried to make one for myself, but some of the items aren't showing up when you save right now.

OMG I have a Captain avatar! *bounces happily*

(Psst... just to let you know... I have brown hair. *wink*)

I know, but the brown they had in that style was more blond than brown. I always have trouble finding just the right hairstyle when I TekTek actual people. You're also supposed to be standing on a lunar surface, but it doesn't show when you have the starry background, for some reason.

Oh hun, seriously, it's absolutely freakin' awesome. Some people actually think I do have black hair, so I mentioned it. I didn't want you to think it was a shortcoming in your work! I think it's awesome. Thank you. I am so immensely flattered here, I can't even put it to words.

*huggles you*

I have the soundtrack mp3s, I got them from [livejournal.com profile] scarlet_malfoy. If you want them I can send you them over AIM or something--I wouldn't know how/where to upload them for downloads.

I would buy you the CD instead but I have about $30 to last me till my next paycheck... and I don't have a job.
