This One's For My Mom

because she whines and cries that I don't write enough. So here I am. Two in a row. Back to back. Boom.

I'm thinking a lot about Christmas and what I want. what i want what i want i want i want. Gotta get those lists figured out, hand em' out, divvy up meh goods.

With this wish list fulfilled, I'll be accessorized with all the necessary material things that go with my capricious ideal. I'll BE better, by and bye.

So here's one paragraph of things i want, without inhibitions and completely unattached to reality...

i want i want i want a full-loaded MacBook Pro, an entry-level DSLR camera, Adobe Creative Suite, an end table for my bedroom, a navy blue Volvo, a black Pomeranian, an eco-maid, an uber special spa wrap, a ticket to New Zealand, my two front teeth (literally, i need new crowns), and world peace.

While I'll receive nary a one of these, it is now very apparent to me that I'm an aspiring yuppie. Are you happy now, mom?

Probably not- she won't be able to get u any of these things.
I love you and will keep the realistic X-mas list close to my heart- well- ok-until I have purchased what I need for you off of it :) then I guess I will pass it on!

I want to know what I want! Is that too much to ask!?

WOW, I do LOVE to see my name in print! Thank you, thank you for the dedication! perfect! Sometimes whining gets you what you want! of course, my children already know that!
I am happy for the posted blog 2nd day in a row...grateful for my dreamer daughter that has such high expectations for Xmas presents... grateful and surprised she would admit to being a yuppie, aspiring or not...I wish I had recorded comments from someone's teenage years to re-play at this moment. Happy , happy for the Xmas list...but all I can accomplish on it, is world peace. Sorry, that's all I can do.
Inquiring minds want to know why you deleted a comment- or was it some obnoxious comment about mothers in general?
I loveyou immensely and then some!

oh, I forgot....an end table for your bedroom? Like the ones at Pier One?

I know what I really want and what I sort of want. What I sort of want is on my public amazon wish list. Feel free to look it up and send gifts when you have extra dough laying around. What I really want is also a maid, a personal chef (you know, like Oprah has), a personal trainer too. Oh and hell, a nanny would be great. Is SuperNanny, Jo, available? I'll take her.
Thanks in advance :)

I guess while we r on the subject- I might as well include mine. i want a summer house on Lake Melissa with enuf bedrooms for all the cousins and their families to come stay. A winter house in AZ and CA- and maybe one on a remote tip of an island- somewhere i have to commision a guide to get to :) A private jet to take me anywhere I want. i agree with Erica- a maid and a personnel chef- hell- I will hire anyone to to anything for me :) I don;t want to do anything but spend time with the family and shop. Does this make me shallow ??

Shallow? Never.
Why is it that my son doesn't know what he wants, but my girls have very definite opinions and wishes?
oh, and make sure I know all your addresses when you get all your wishes!

There is no need to invest much at first. You may start to get income with as small sum of money as 20-100 dollars.

That`s your chance That`s what you wish in the long run!

I feel good, I started to get real money with the help of this company,
and I invite you to do the same. If it gets down to choose a correct companion who uses your funds in a right way - that`s AimTrust!.

You didn't say "I want $2000 a day, did you?" - I'm sure you didn't.

Phoenix said...

I saw World Peace on sale at Target the other day. They might have a couple left.

;)

Rookeroo said...

Why a black Pomeranian? Isn't knowing the breed enough or you now want to match Tricks to a potential dog??? What in the hell is an eco-maid? & when did you start speaking German?
and i don't think you write often enough now Either! :-P

Darcy said...

OH MY!!! What a comment fest!
Stacy: I like your wish list! i never knew these things of you. i thought i was the only one who aspired to do absolutely nothing. we get closer and closer all the time ;-).
Cole: You DO know what you want. That's the secret.
Mom: lol, there you go mom, there's a free commenter! I also wish you had recorded some of the things i said. what happened to me mom? have i just gotten to know myself better or have i gotten further from my true self? plus, thanks for the world peace. that's really the one i wanted anyway. of course, if you really cant swing that, then yes, an end table from pier one would be BOMB. and i can't remember why i deleted the comment, poor wording of my actual comment. no big secrets, i promise.
Erica: I am soooooo going on your amazon wish list. i'll prolly get you the maid and maybe the super nanny. or a super nanny gift card in case i can't swing the whole amount.
Anonymous solicitor: suck it.
Mwa: your jokes are pitch perfect, lol, thanks for sticking up for me.
Phoenix: I'm so there.

Aunt Vicki: (dave is actually laughing in the other room reading your comment out loud as i write this) lol, yes ur right, i am totally screening the color, i call it animal profiling. Since both trick and diego (we adopted a new cat off the street one year ago, he was three weeks old and dying!) are both black and came to us randomly, I now feel like it's completely o.k. to get a trio and pick the color of my third.) plus, everyone sees cream pomeranians and it might remind me of our old dog Chewbacca. So black. Yes. Them poms are friendly!
An eco-maid?! pshhhaw....well, it's a maid that only uses earth-friendly cleaning products of course! keeping my air tasty and non-toxic and she can perhaps wear hemp necklaces. i don't think "eco-maid" is an official term yet, but i'll be sure to take credit for it when it does.
o.k. u got me on the german thing.
now i'm going to also go write another blog. Ich bien froh!

Dave said...

Stacy, I like your style! Private Jet is the way to go for sure!
As much as it was a weak attempt to make a sales pitch...I would like $2,000 per day...more actually. Why stop at $2,000 per day? Thats only $730,000 per year. Thats weak. $30,000 per day is much better. Cause then I have the option of giving away $28,000 per day and I'll still be making that $2,000 per day chump change. Who wants first dibs to be part of my entourage. I'm taking tryouts right now but I only have about 8 spots left. Let me know.

What an exciting post and all those comments! And it all starts with "Mom" hehehe- after all, it is all about "me", right?
Phoenix- thanks for letting me know about the Target sale, I'll stop tonight!
Dave, Thanks, I'll just borrow money from you and get in line for the 28,000/da giveaway! Love you all! Thanks for the entertainment this morning! MOME

Rookeroo said...

Well you are such a trend setter... now I will just have to get an additional color matched dog for Rook! We wouldn't want him to feel left out.
And you best get the term eco-maid trademarked soon, it will help with the $30K a day thing... passive income stream and all!

Anonymous said...

What color code would match Rook? hmmmmmm....????

Darcy said...

husband = hilarious.
vicki: yes, you should match your dog as well. it's obviously the "in" thing to do.

spare a girl some clicks?
