Wish lists

[redbird]

I've realized, again, that what I want doesn't fit conveniently on a wish list. Part of it is things that are either too big--it would be nice for me and cattitude to have a house with a garden. Other things aren't material and/or buyable: I would like to live closer to adrian_turtle and Q, but that's not something that anyone can go out and get me. And some could be bought, if I knew who sold them: I want jeans, and warm fall-to-winter-weight pants, in my size with decent pockets and in colors I like. (Dark blue and black are certainly acceptable.) If there's a way to look on the Web and find out how big the pockets of a mail-order garment are, I haven't found it, and wandering through stores this season has been mostly an exercise in disappointment.

Fortunately, I don't think many people feel the need to buy me gifts.

Some of both. Enough grass to sit outside with a book or a picnic, and fruit and vegetables to eat. Some flowers, probably along the edges, maybe an apple or cherry tree in the center (apricots aren't really hardy at this latitude), for fruit and flowers.
