All I Want for Christmas

- a Higgs field of my very own, to cuddle and squeeze and force into a condensed quantum liquid which will bestow mass upon all the fundamental particles in the universe - to have all Christmas songs replaced by that one Mariah Carey Christmas song, which is the very best Christmas song of all (except O Come O Come Emmanuel, which I feel guilty about singing cause I don't believe in God, but I do believe that watching Love Actually 15 times in a row will lead to mental and spiritual enlightenment.) - to start playing racquetball on Mondays - a nail polish that never chips ever, so I can stop feeling like a weird hobo girl every time I spontaneously go out without remembering to repaint my nails. Also I would like my toenails just dyed permanently. - World Peace, as long as that still means I can get all the things I love from other hemispheres, like coffee and oranges and birth control. - 17,000 cameras - a rose daffodil hybrid that grows in January - an albino Australian shepherd (dog)(I would probably accept an actual shepherd too) - the first human contact with alien life forms, also please I would like them to have already figured out English. - A really really really good story from New Years Eve. - 3 dozen lavender meringue drops and a very expensive imported absinthe and... those flavor changing pills that every one seems to have forgotten about, I assume because they aren't that great, but I didn't get to try them so c'mon now. - bluer eyes - a house made of stained glass, way up somewhere in the mountains but also in the South and also very nearby an ocean not a lake (lakes that aren't actually inland seas like the Great Lakes never seem to clean to me, I think because the waves and wind never get high enough) - Belgium. The Country. - one week in Texas with this one particular guy - fake eyelashes made of mink fur - full body heating pad - to see the Northern lights. Preferably with the full body heating pad. Or in Texas, that would be pretty amazing too.

  3. I don't really know that getting any of these things is going to "fulfill" me. I mean, actually, probably the dog.

  4. Oh, I know, Bridget, but there were two "wishes" for you in my comment. Related? Probably not. I've lived long enough to have figured that one out. Still, I just wanted to send all this positive cosmic dust your way.

  5. If your eyes get any bluer, I'll just have to assume you're a Fremen.

  6. "a rose daffodil hybrid that grows in January" -- if you get this, can I have a cutting from it? It sounds like heaven.

    "3 dozen lavender meringue drops and a very expensive imported absinthe and... those flavor changing pills that every one seems to have forgotten about" -- I really, really want to make the former, and you will definitely be getting some if I do. As for the latter... yeah, they weren't actually magical but they were pretty damn cool. Stout tastes like a milkshake and lime tortilla chips taste like fruit loops (both lime chips and fruit loops are gross but because of the semi-magic it was exciting). You can get them on Amazon these days.

  7. Oops, somehow missed the absinthe in that quote. If you acquire someone, I'll trade you the lavender meringues for a glass.
