Updated Wishlist

[mizarchivist]

It's now 19 days til my natal day, and some people sometimes buy me presents. I was trying to see if I already had a wishlist together, but I think the last time I did this was 2 years ago- dude.
This is not an obligatory thing, rather a reference, says the very self-depricating, --I swear I'm not a spoiled only child brat and really don't tease me, OK? Really. I'm neurotic. -- girl.

I don't sew, so... wearables. And I still have Serenity-themed quilt squares and not the first clue.
Your time/attention

Ok. Will that satisfy? Most is pretty universal/timeless 'cept for some of them specific middle bits.

i could put quilt squares together if you sit with me & natter while i do it! i lack motivation when left to my own devices...

[mizarchivist]

I get that lack of motivation. I also do not have a pattern picked out yet. I will keep you in mind if ever I un-lame :)

I've offered before to take you bike gear shopping, with or without a gift-giving occasion attached to it. The offer still stands. Or if you've seen something somewhere that fits the bill, tell me where/what and I'll be happy to help outfit you and your bike.

[mizarchivist]

I had not remembered, thank you. I've not renewed my efforts on finding specific things, but I will keep you apprised.

Getting the CD/DVD burner thing should be pretty trivial. I can help you pick one, or just get it independently if you don't care about the details. Something like this?

burning DVDs is also a feature I want. From what I can see, when you add the DVD burn capability, it's not- as you say- trivial.
However, I'm not particularly gifted in finding quality hardware. I get teflon brain within 5-10 minutes. I rely on K. to help me identify the not-crap stuff that will do what I want. Wee!

OK, DVD burning makes sense. Run these by your in-house geek and see if he approves:
