A few of my friends have been asking what I want for Xmas. So here is a wish list to help. Links are only for reference. Feel free to purchase goods anywhere.

  • Playstation Network cards

Apparel:
I usually wear a women’s Medium, aka size 8

  • Knitwear set! Cozy non-wool/animal and non-itchy (stuff like cotton or chenille would work) coordinating knitwear in teals, aquas, ice blues, black, or a combination (a set would include 2 or more of the following: touque, scarf, shawl, gloves, arm warmers, mitts, sweater, headband, legwarmers, socks, wrap).
  • Anime legwarmers (any colour, the current selection is good).

Other stuff:

  • People to bid on my auctions that benefit Carla and Lance (new stuff being added Sunday night!)
  • Less sexual harassment of women on Playstation Home.
  • Same-sex marriages for everyone!
  • That people treat others as equals and realize that we’re all different.
  • Less dependency on fossil fuels.
  • A bass guitar controller for Rock Band for the PS3.
  • Hovercars.
  • Just a big general ‘people should stop being dicks to each other’.

In an attempt to make my site more interesting, I’ve decided to add a poll. This week’s poll has to do with my career options. I admit, I’m only working for the public service for the pay, pension, and benefits. Sometimes I feel a bit brain-dead sitting at my desk, I’ve gained weight since working there, and, dear god, I have to use a mouse on those computers.

There seems to be some options opening up for me. So here they are:

Option 1: I can apply for a position higher than where I am at now.
Pros: More pay!
Cons: Still sitting at the desk, have to go through a competition to get the job. Still computers with mice.

Option 2: I can focus my energy getting something I.T. related.
Pros: Technology is much more my speed over processing. I get to go back to school. Can still work in the government. Can sneak in web design.
Cons: Not working while in school. I’d have to find said I.T. job.

Option 3: Go back to freelancing. Photography, colouring comics, doing art stuff, websites, blogging and other things. Basically everything I love.
Pros: I can do whatever I want. Whenever I want. where ever I want in the world. Ultimate happiness!
Cons: Pay sucks and will suck more than ever because of how high the Canadian dollar has gotten. Back to the poor house and no dental plan.

Option 4: Other.
You tell me!
