I’m terrible with gifts. I nearly always buy the person what I’d want to get, which is wrong and dangerous, especially if the present is for a lover. Or I get what they’ve hinted for and find some way to bollocks that up, like getting the wrong colour, size or cheap dangerous Chinese version of whatever they asked for. “Lead paint in the cutlery? Really?”<\/p>\n

And I know you’re just like me. Of course you are. You read this blog!<\/p>\n

So with less than 15 days until my birthday I thought I’d help you all out and get the ball rolling early and get my wish list of gifts you can get me.<\/p>\n

Let’s start with the cheap stuff:<\/strong>
\nA box of gum
\nSome nice hotel soaps
\nLint brushes
\nA plastic dollar store monkey
\nQ-tips
\nSocks and Underwear
\nA new pumice stone<\/p>\n

A Little more Wallet Intensive:<\/strong>
\nSeasons One and Two Venture Brothers
\nSilent Hill for the PSP
\nNice shirts for work
\nKooky robot t-shirts
\nA nice gift certificate to HMV
\nA nice gift certificate to iTunes
\nSome lovely sketchbooks
\nFrench lessons
\nBetter socks and underwear!<\/p>\n

Welcome to Tiffany’s:<\/strong>
\nA Wii
\n4 or 5 Wii games
\nA new TV (flat screen, duh!)
\nClasses to Second City
\nA car lease
\nInsurance for car
\nInsurance for the apartment
\nAnother kitten for George Hamilton to play with
\nAirfare to NYC for the weekend
\nA MacPro Duo Core with 8G of RAM
\nAn iPhone (hello US readers!)
\nSome shoes<\/p>\n

I’m glad I could help. Remember! Gift receipts!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
