Christmas Wishlist
I’m skittish when it comes to asking for things. Don’t like to do it. Every year I practice my false humility and I hone my skill at deflecting this inquiry from family and friends: “What do you want for Christmas.” This year I’m being passive aggressive about it. I’m making a list (checking it twice?) online. Friends and family are welcome to make online purchases from Amazon or to ignore the list entirely. However, when asked the inevitable question, I’ll refer you to this post.
Here’s the list on Amazon.com. I’ve got it sorted by priority. Don’t worry about the price. Some of the items on here are very expensive. They’re really there just for my own reference. But there are also several items listed under $10. You don’t have to worry about spoiling any surprises because Amazon keeps purchases made from my list off of my radar. I won’t know if something is purchased. After Christmas, the items will be automatically removed. Neither should you worry about whether or not I already have an item on the list. I’m not dumb enough to buy anything off this list before Christmas, and I wouldn’t have put it on the list if I already owned it. So you’re safe there, too.
If you want to get me something, feel no obligation to stick to this list. I’m sure there are myriad other items suitable for a holiday gift, and I’m certain I’ll enjoy whatever it is, so long as it’s bought with thought of me in mind.
If you have questions, feel free to send me an email or give me a call. In fact, if you like, just send a Christmas Card.
Merry Christmas to everybody!
