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 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.)
  • The new Capitol Steps album
  • under armour coldgear compression tights, M, black. (There might be two different types like 'frosty' and 'outdoor' or something. As long as it says "coldgear" it's good.)
  • under armour coldgear mock neck shirt, S. Neutral color (black preferably, or grey). Something like this. (Note, I am specifically looking for the compression fit and warmth.)
  • An outdoor watering can. I think I'll want at least a gallon of capacity. And the kind that "sprinkles" instead of "pours".
  • 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
  • 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.
  • iTunes gift card
  • 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.
