Desires of the new year

Posted in Personal by Riskable on the January 2nd, 2006

Lots of people have New Years resolutions. I have New Years desires. It is my version of a letter to Santa, except I am both the child and Santa simultaneously. Some of these things are definitely going to come my way while others are a bit more wishful. Here’s my list, checked twice for errors:

  1. A Nokia N80.
  2. A big 1080p HDTV LCD.
  3. An iRobot Roomba.
  4. Some solar-powered LED walkway action.
  5. Temperature-sensitive LED-colored faucets for the house.
  6. A hybrid solar-powered central air conditioner.
  7. A neat little shower thermometer.
  8. For the my artistic side, a swank new wall covering.
  9. Some LED wall tiles for the bathroom.
  10. A Glow Brick.
  11. Then there’s my ThinkGeek.com Wishlist.

I think I’ll have some milk and cookies.
