I realized today that we are almost into October. I think you all know what that means. My birthday is almost here!! You only have 111 shopping days left! January 10th is almost upon you!
With that in mind I thought I'd do a post about some of the things that I want, so that you can get a jump start on making my dreams come true. Also, a Happy Birthday wish for Mike S.! It's probably rude to talk about your own birthday on someone else's, but I mean, this is MY birthday we are talking about.
Gift Ideas:
1. An 80 GB iPod Classic in Black (new...that's funny to me...it's called the classic, but alas, it's not the same) - $250.00 - I think I know 10 people. Which means, that if each of you just chipped in $25 I could have one of these. Alternatively, for a mere $200 the 8GB iPod Nano in Turquoise because as we all know, turquoise is the new black. And I'll just remind you all now that you can get it engraved. It's not that I don't love the old iPod - because I really, really do. And I think that's why I want another one. I'm afraid Siggy might conk out on my again and it just breaks my heart. I'm currently having such a great time listening. And he's not sick yet, but his battery life is sort of lacking. I just think it might be time for Siggy II...whom I will call Siggy Jr.
Think of the joy that you will be bringing to my heart. And unlike other years in which I just asked for a party and no gifts...all I'm asking for is a gift and no party. How much easier is that than normal? Although I still might want a pastry homage to myself. Because Heidi always makes a super kick ass representation of me in cake form and it just seems wrong to deny the world one of those, doesn't it?
2. Murder She Wrote - any number of the seasons. But I'll tell you right now, you might get a better deal if you just all chip in together and get the iPod.
3. Pure Grace from Philosophy - that's a perfume. It smells pretty good.
4. Gift Certificate to a book store or to iTunes or something such as that.
I think that's about it for gift ideas right now. I hope this doesn't seem like the thinly veiled attempt to ask for an iPod that it is. I'm just saying. There are at least a group of you, that brings your individual cost way down. You don't even have to wrap it.

Are you kidding me?? No party!?! Oh no no my friend...I don't chip in on a present unless I also get to slave for hours planing and preparing for the best party of the year! Besides, Viki M just gave me her entire set of Wilton cake pans (yes, it includes the Alf pan) so my options are limitless.
