Because it would be boring just to recite the things I asked for Christmas, here’s the top ten things that I didn’t ask for, won’t get, but secretly desire this Christmas:
1) HDTV (yea, I have a specific one picked out in my heart of hearts)
2) White water rafting / skiing trip
3) Water front property
4) Motorboat to go with the water front property
5) Sailboat for when I’m tired of the motorboat
6) Fancy mobile phone
7) TV Tuner card for my Windows Media Center (this one isn’t even unreasonable)
10 minutes of complete, utter, deafening silence (I’m talking not even background noise; the kind of silence that will upset you)
9) A good shave (I’m too lazy to shave my beard myself, but just maybe I’ll do it)
10) Goodwill and peace on earth for all of mankind (if I get everything I asked for this year, I might ask for this next year)
Instead, I’m going to have an eat your heart out, 12-year-olds dream Christmas full of video games.
What do you secretly want for Christmas?

I secretly want a huge 500GB hard drive and a XBOX 360.

Haha, I love the “I didn’t ask for and I won’t get” theme.
My secret wish would be to get rid of my olfactory glands altogether. I’m tired of smelling things all the time. Who needs em?

By the way, the olfactory comment is not for myself. One of my gifts in life is I always smell really pleasant no matter how long I haven’t showered. So, yea, Nick and I don’t want to get a new deodarant, thanks.

You totally should have told me that you just wanted 10 minutes of silence. How cheap is that? I think I might have to take your presents back, keep the money for myself, go on a mad/bad shopping spree, and then wrap up those minutes for you. Oh, if you unwrap the minutes of silence, won’t it look like you’re unwrapping…nothing?
Oh, don’t worry–the presents are already safely wrapped and under the tree. Perfect dream gifts for a video gamer like yourself.

Great post, nic. I’m with you on number one, but don’t fret too much ’cause I think HD content is still lacking. Give it a little more time…

Oh mannnnn, speaking of Cialis….

HEY! WAKE UP!
January 24th, 2007 at 10:49 pm
I secretly want you to update =P

I want me to update too …
I guess I will have to make an effort.

Good news … I’m making some updates again
