Stuff I'd Like
In the interest of being able to look up what sort of stuff I like, here's a list. Updated sporadically.
For the extensive joy of Caryatid, I herein provide my birthday: April 23. If you forget, go ask Chadius. Or my father-in-law.
These items are more or less in order by preference:
- A computer headset -- the kind you'd use for skype calls. Should be compatible with my Mac.
- A gift card to anywhere you can find that sells bras (or swimsuits) in 28E-FF. No, really. Try Europe. In fact, Bravissimo now has them.
- A pair of lightish weight flannel pajama pants (dark colors/plaid/etc), size about a ladies medium
- Something like this (okay, it might not be dark, but it's PURPLE.)
- Indian cookbook(s). In particular, this one is recommended a lot, as well as anything by Julie Sahni.
- new laptop sleeve with fancy shoulder strap.
- under armour coldgear mock neck shirt, XS. Neutral color (black preferably, or grey). Something like this. (Note, I am specifically looking for the compression fit and warmth.)
- under armour heatgear capris, S. I know, I hate capris. But, these are the right thing to wear to bike in the summer.
- Yet another geeky coder shirt
- an Original Gyroscope
- under armour coldgear compression tights, S, black. (There might be two different types like 'frosty' and 'outdoor' or something. As long as it says "coldgear" it's good.)
- A Marathon gift card for personal training.
- A gift card for an hour massage at Marathon (Yes, this is now a regular fixture.) You might have to call, but there's a phone number on their Contact Us page.
- The new Capitol Steps album
- An outdoor watering can. I think I'll want at least a gallon of capacity. And the kind that "sprinkles" instead of "pours".
- One of those inch thick foldable gym mats
- A set of free weights
- 1lb increments up to 5lbs
- 2.5lb increments from 5 up to about 30
- Stands to hold the weighs and exercise balls
- iTunes gift card
- A smallish, cheap backpack. I want just enough space to carry a textbook, maybe two, and my laptop in its shiny new neoprene sleeve thing. And a pencil.
- CD's to add to my music collection (see link for specifics.)
- Gift cards: Home Depot, Sears, Bed Bath & Beyond
- Gift cards: Kohls, Macy's, Victoria's Secret, R.E.I. (Which one of these is not like the others?)
- The Errorwear BSOD girly shirt in a medium (or, for bonus points, see if you can actually get in touch with them and find out whether they ever intend to get small. I sure can't.)
- high-quality milk chocolate, plain or with hazelnut
- PMC donations -- eGift ID CB0167. This is great for my birthday, less so around Christmas time (due to the mid-October deadline). Sadly, I will probably not participate in 2010 either due to the recent house purchase.
Crimes already perpetrated:
- An awesome ninja mask like Nybble's. DONE - Thanks Nybs!
- A big doggy bed monogrammed "CAT". DONE - Thanks Dad&Nancy!
- A ps2 memory card I can write my own name on so I know where the heck my saves are. DONE - Thanks Aurora!
- NSFW babydoll from thinkgeek DONE - Thanks me!
- L.L.Bean Down Booties (dark red, gray...my feet are roughly a ladies 6-1/2) DONE - Hubby loves me! *snuggle*
- Noir OST2 soundtrack DONE - Morrigu still loves me!
- Geek Guitar: iAxe. DONE - Thanks, Utter Chaos!
- New headphones that will fit my teensy child-sized skull, and not make my glasses pinch my ears (preferably with with 1/4" stereo audio adapter -- see above link.) DONE - Thanks dear!
- Professional massage DONE - thanks Morrigu! However, if I decide I like it, this may become a regular fixture on my wishlist. ;)
- A small yoga matt to do stretches, sit-ups and stuff at home DONE - Thanks Caryatid!
- The ThinkGeek "Meh" babydoll DONE - Thanks Mom!
- A basic set of high-quality bonsai tools (I have one set of clippers, and don't know what gauge wire I need.) DONE - Thanks Dad&Nancy. Thanks!
- A new laptop to replace my ailing pre-'01 post-Arepalyptic craptop. (Yes, this one is a joke. Mostly.) Hey look, I found a MacBook. Crazy.
- An EZPass for Kurama. (Fast Lane marginally acceptable.) DONE - Thanks Mom!
- Cotton undies (at least 94% cotton) with low rise and no elastic around the legs, size SM, in any color that doesn't have too much pink/yellow/orange on it DONE - Thanks Mom!
- One of those protective little sleeves for my macbook so I can put it in a backpack or carry it around. (Preferably in black.) DONE - Thanks Dad!
- In-ear headphones that will work better for my tiny ears than earbuds do. DONE - Thanks Dad!
- The ThinkGeek "Got Root?" hooded girly T (small) DONE - Thanks UC, for snagging this before they ran out!
- The ThinkGeek 304 tank top (also small) DONE - Thanks UC!
- Think Geek's 'warranty' undies, probably in a size 1. DONE - Thanks UC!
- A hands-free type thing for my cell phone. No clue what kind I'd want (or even what's out there) so pretty much -- don't spring for anything fancy! But, then I could talk to mom and my sis while I make dinner without causing any major disasters. DONE - Thanks dear!
- A shiny new house. DONE - Thanks mom, 'gu, me, Redfin, Dardeno law offices, and BofA!
- Wii Fit Plus (or whatever the shiny new version is called) DONE - Thanks Kate & Ryan!
- small watering can for indoor little herb pots DONE - Thanks Mom!

- Also, a bunch of good, strong fridge magnets DONE - Thanks Mom!
- trowel DONE - Thanks Mom! And thanks, Z and Pink!
- garden fork DONE - Thanks Mom! And thanks, Z and Pink!
- A french rolling pin. I have no idea if there are fancy versions of these, but I'm looking for the plainest of the plain. DONE - Thanks Z and Pink! (Whoops. Missed moving that one after Christmas...)
- A magnetic white board, something like this. DONE - Thanks Gu!
- 8" and 10" skillets, like these DONE - Thanks Chris & Meghan & Meghan's Mom!
- under armour heatgear compression shorts, as close to knee length as possible (probably 7" length, maybe 9" if they have them) in size S. Black is good. DONE - Thanks for the Amazon card Ben&Pixie!
- A dustbuster/dirt-devil type little vacuuming thing. DONE - Thanks, Arlington email list! (and Gail, in particular.)
- An interesting babydoll size S. DONE - Thanks Morrigu!

- ThinkGeek's mini cupcake maker DONE - Thanks Mom!
- The enough social interaction babydoll, size S DONE - Thanks Mom!

- ThinkGeek's awesome pepper grinder DONE - Thanks Mom
- ThinkGeek's awesome nerdy cookbook DONE - Thanks Dan!
