A green shirt to go with my elf costume. Preferably by tomorrow, since Elf Day is Wednesday.

A job: preferably one that I fit well with, but I'll take nearly anything in a pinch.

Wanted: wine.

*A right shoulder massage
*A hair brushing and/or washing
*A good cuddle

Security.
Time to pass more quickly.

Alea, if you ever visit, we will take care of all those things. I'm no hairdresser, but I've washed and brushed my share of other people's hair over the years.

Yeah, Alea, if you were here, those things could totally be marked off your list.

I can't help with your list, Ali, though I would love to help.

You can't help with those, sadly. Only God can. But should something come up, I'll let you know!

A nice dedicated film scanner or someone who'll scan my negs for me

if I knew you in real life my dad would totally do this for you. It's practically all he does any more....*sigh*

Using a Nikon film scanner spoiled me, plus my scanner is crap.

I want a ship in a klein bottle.

I want a ship in a klein bottle.

That would be pretty awesome.

@ Mobius....

How would you know it was actually IN the Klein Bottle?

Better to ask, "I want a ship in coterminous space adjacent to the physical manifold of a Klein Bottle."

Wanted: Someone here in England to throw me a baby shower. I hope it occurs to someone!

If you're prepared to travel down to Gloucestershire, I'll do it!

We'll need to take a trip south sometime anyway

Old, turn of the century or before brass lens. too bad people want an arm and a leg for them.

Meh, all you need is a first-born child.

Not at this point in my life, thanks.

I have checked with a number of local Priests, Rabbis and Pastors--I now know for a fact that I will not be taken up on May 21, 2011.

You, on the other hand, know full well that you will be. You have accepted Jesus Christ as your personal savior. You have led an honorable life. You have prayed to the Lord, and have done what you have needed to do. You will be taken up.

But what about your stuff? What about your need for operating expenses NOW, to take care of any last minute things? You won't be needing any of that stuff come May 22nd. But you WILL need to be prepared.

I will buy your stuff from you. I will pay you now, and pick it up on the 22nd. I figure you can use a few hundred dollars for the new car you now have, but won't be needing in a few days. Similarly for that gaming laptop you recently purchased. A few hundred dollars here and there will add up quickly, and it's all for stuff you won't be needing shortly. And it will help you get your things in order NOW. This is important--you MUST be ready for when you are taken up. And you know, deep in your heart, that just going to Home Depot and maxing out your VISA card with the knowledge that you will never be able to pay it off is theft--is a sin. Wouldn't that just be great, committing a sin in getting ready for the rapture, and so not being able to be taken up? I can help you!

Please contact me as soon as possible. Time and space is running out.

*snrk*

I love it.

Plus, it included a nice image of the "Buddy Christ".

Don't know WHY they pulled it!!!

Wanted: Just a smidgen of motivation.

Wanted: A heating pad *without* an auto-off safety feature that makes it turn off every hour. They started putting these on seemingly all heating pads sometime within the last couple years, at least here in the US. I need one for a gecko and I can't find one! About to start searching online.

eta: I found one at drugstore.com. Yay!

Wanted: A Nikon 28Ti for free. That analog setting meter looks awesome and I'd be nice to have a small travel camera.

Wanted: The complete series of Boy Meets World. The last season comes out in October and I need to whole series to be on sale so I can reasonably ask for it for Christmas. Except I was thinking about getting a snowboard this year too. Sigh...decisions.

Wanted: A break. Dear god, a real live break from people, where I don't have to say a word if I don't want and don't have to explain anything or justify or entertain or serve or please. A break from noise and stress.

Wanted: for the mountain of dissertation material to sort itself out into a comprehensible and clear organisation. AUGH

KitchenAid Pro 600.

KitchenAid Pro 600.

Nicole got the Artisan from my parents this past xmas. She wanted the professional before but this one handles everything so far and she likes the fact that the head of the mixer can be lifted.

Wanted: Pasta and meat grinder attachments for our KitchenAid.

With the amount of Pandoros that I plan to make this Christmas, I really need the higher wattage. I really abused my last one pretty bad. It was only a classic, but I want my new one to be strong enough that I never have to worry about it.

I'm trying to decide whether to get the grain mill or to get a separate grain mill appliance. The grain mill takes a toll even on the high wattage of the Pro 600. If I used the attachment to grind my wheat, then I'd have to wait at least 45 mins to be able to start making the bread. I don't know how annoying that will be to me.

Ours is actually an Ultra Power (300 watt). I haven't found anything it's not amazing at.

Yes, pasta and meat grinder attachments are VERY much wanted!!!
