I haven't posted my birthday/winter solstice/New Year's/Yule/Newtonmas/Joe Got a Haircut Day list here because it's not anything I can realistically expect my friends to get me. I want good jobs (defined as interesting work, decent pay, and non-maddening hours+commute) for me and [livejournal.com profile] cattitude. I want an honest recount in Florida and Ohio, and the inauguration of John Kerry as president of the United States two months from now. I want cures/prevention for, among other things, AIDS and a stack of autoimmune and neurological problems. I want really fast, comfortable transport so I can see my loved ones and good friends who live hundres or thousands of miles away as frequently as I can see the ones who live in Brooklyn.

Telling you all this isn't actually going to increase the chances that I'll get any of it. If [livejournal.com profile] micheinnz ever comes up with a reliable implementation of MTP [1], I'm sure she'll share it so we can work on the general case.

In the meantime, chocolate and good tea are some comfort in adversity, but you already knew that, too.

[1] Miche Transfer Protocol, of course.
