Christmas Wish List 2007

Happy Holidays folks! If you've stumbled upon my blog, welcome and have a good look around, as I tend to ramble about anything and everything, you're bound to find something interesting!

If you're one of my faithful readers- what are you doing here? I haven't made a real post in months, and I'm still planning on finishing those LOST Simpsons characters, I swear! But I'm glad you haven't given up on me completely and still drop by to check in from time to time.

Well Christmas is rapidly approaching, and as usual, I've yet to supply my family and friends with any sory of Wish List, so the window for me actually getting what I want on December 25th (or for my birthday on the 21st) shrinks each day.

With that in mind, I've visited a few stores, checked some websites, and have finally compiled a large list of goodies. Now don't be intimidated by the list- I'm pretty easy to shop for, love surprises, and have enjoyed getting strange and different things I never asked for each year, so if you have something different in mind for me that you don't see here- don't worry and go with your gut instincts.

So, without further ado, here's my list broken down by category. And be on the lookout in the next few weeks- I may do some updating as I find more things. And don't worry: I'm not making ANYMORE purchases for myself at Best Buy until after the holidays.

Allright that's all I've got for now. I'm running short on time and haven't given thought to things I need/could use, like clothes, computer stuff, art supplies, or a new HD video camera, and have focused only on entertainment. So, I'll probably update with more stuff soon. Thanks, and Merry Christmahannuhkwaanzakah!
