What I want for Christmas is to have ever heard of any of that stuff. (with the exception of Champagne, canapes and chocolate, of course) I know which list I’m going to refer to the next time I need some culture and class to impress a woman.

It’s interesting you mention warmth helping you think because I’ve found that I do my best writing in a cold room. It’s the weirdest thing.

Don’t worry Shadow. You’ve got the most important things covered – three Cs and all.

I can’t write if my feet are cold. Or do anything except think about how to sit on them without shutting off the circulation.

I have been stalking those shoes for months as well. Me likey.

Anne, they’re gorgeous no? My brother thinks them too extravagant. I tell him, “Dude, you pay more than that to stuff these deer head on your wall.”

It’s all relative. And I guarantee I’ll get more wear out of my heels than he will his taxidermied guests.

We have similar arguments about my sisters need for new skis or bikes. Those toys are expensive and my shoes garner me much love and adoration. And miles of happiness. I could sit in my closet and be quite content.

Anne – And I thought there was no one else out there like me. The sitting in the closet and all.

Oh no, those are my babies (for now) and that list up there, that could have been mine. Oh where or where are my pearl earrings?

Was that list in English?

Oh, I want those shoes, too–but they’re too tall for me!! My husband is only 1.5″ taller then me, so I have sworn off heels more than 2″ darnnit!! (It’s my issue, not his–he’s okay with it…) I hope you get them & post pics so I can envy from afar!! Happy Christmas!

I’m not quite sure what I like best off of your list but that phone is *very* spiffy.

What a delicious lists!

Marina, I’ve been loving the Nokia for over a year now. Time to indulge.

.. can I just copy and paste your list? you have virtually summed up all of the fun things I would like.

different world Buffy than us mortals. bet santa would have like you to sit on his knee. your not named after the singer

Mmmm… truffles. One of my personal favorites too.

btw, it’s time for the roll call! let us know how you did this week!

DD, I want you to know I battled long and hard over those truffles. The truffles won.

i love your description of Santa–the burping and all–just whose lap I’d want to sit my child in–”Daddy, his aftershave stinks.” “Kid, what does he need aftershave for, he’s got a full grown beard, and how do you know about aftershave, I’ve never used it in your life with this here beard of mine…” oh well, may your Christmas be merry

Oooh, what a lovely list. I want a Tahitian pearl bracelet(it’s my sorority jewel so it’s almost like I need it). And the mineral veil is great, I’ve tried it. I hope you get at least some of the things on your list. Happy Holidays!

Sounds like you know what your want. Hope you get what your heart desires.

What a sophisticated list! I had fun looking at the photos. Can’t wait to hear if Santa drops these off for you! What does hubby want?
