Merry Christmas & Happy Hanukkah [2011]

I don’t want very much for Christmas/Hanukkah this year. In fact, I really just want the person reading this to be happy. Friends are the fruit cake of life: some nutty, some soaked in alcohol, and some sweet. But mix them together and they’re my friends. And I could not be more blessed.

At Christmas/Hanukkah you always hear people talking about what they want and/or what they bought.

So, I figured I’d do the same.

Dear Santa,

I want people who are sick with no cure to be able to be cured. I want children with no families to be adopted. I want people to never have to worry about food, shelter and heat. I want peace and love for everyone.

But if that’s too much to ask for…can I please just get a new desk chair?

Clearly, this one is broken.

 

* Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah y’all.

What do YOU want this holiday season?

    Very thoughtful & unselfish of you Meleah (no surprise there, you have a huge heart). Guess what – I am nutty, I am sweet and other than for the past almost 3 months due to financial reasons, I usually love alcohol, esp. Vodka & beer!
    I want similar stuff that you want. And oh my, pinch you for something similar – I need a new computer chair. I’m using a very old, ordinary chair and would love to buy a nice, comfy computer table chair. Next year.

  2. WOOOT! Hooray for a new Laptop Terri!

    And, yeah, this chair needs to go.
    My back and arse hurt from sitting in it!

  3. Nice!! I may follow suit!

  4. Mmmmmm. Vodka!

    And I swear on all things holy.

    I WILL get a new desk chair.
    If not for Christmas, soon afterwards.

    Yes yes! That was going to be my suggestion too!

    Also:
    a) this chair will look awesome once fixed
    b) blog fodder
    c) do it!
    d) happy holidays!

    My goodness. Someone please get this girl a new chair!  Meleah I hope you get a new chair and some good fruitcake for Christmas! 🙂    Me – Aside from health and happiness for friends and family, I really just want a sewing machine so I can have a hobby to keep myself entertained. 

  7. Either my dad will fix it.
    OR, I’m getting a new one.

    This is ridiculous!

  8. I hope you get your sewing machine, Jules!!

    Swinging by to wish you and your awesome family the gayest (in the traditional Christmas meaning of the word, LOL) holiday season!

    With or without mistletoe… XXOO!
    🙂

  15. Jay says:

    Awwww … I’d fall straight through the bottom of that one! LOL!

    May you get your new chair!!  

  16. Sadly, I did NOT get a new chair.
    Looks like this one is staying with me, a bit longer.

    Since (as usual) I’m late to the party again, I have to ask… did you get a new chair?  🙂
