A list of some things I need/want that will be included on my Xmas list.
-This coat, that I've already mentioned.
-Knobs and drawer pulls for the living room.
-This adorable shirt, also from Anthro.
-I also want a cardigan that doesn't close in the front, like this one.
-I'm in love with this J. Crew cardigan as well.
-Lush stuff is always necessary.
-I also want the new Animal Crossing game for the Wii, the new Harvest Moon game for the Wii, and the Lego Batman game for the PS3.  I need to have something to do with my time after college haha.
-Lowe's and iTunes gift cards
-The Ikea table I mentioned previously and don't feel like finding the link for haha.
-The new Domino decorating book.
-Books by Augusten Burroughs and Virginia Woolf
-The third season of Robot Chicken, and the new Family Guy season
-Black Amethyst and Vanilla Bean Noel body lotion from Bath and Body Works
-There are about 4 prints I want from Etsy, but this one from Black Apple, and this one from Elle Moss are my favorites.
-For the house, I want three pairs of white brackets to make shelves out of the vintage trays I bought, a new bookcase for the library, and paint for the library and upstairs bedroom.
  This isn't a complete list, and I'm not sure who I'm going to ask for what.  Right now I'm focusing on Jason's Xmas and birthday gifts.  I think I'll buy the table and coat with the majority of my money, the coat is so affordable, but it's more than any one person will want to spend.  I guess I'll need a chair too if I end up with the table, we'll have to see if Ikea has anything that will work, and fit in my car for the trek back from Philadelphia.  I have an Ikea office chair, but it's clear plastic.  It's cute, but not at all what I want with that table.  I want something that isn't too modern, and hopefully wood.  This actually helped a little with my jumble of Christmas thoughts.  Sorry for the shameless materialism haha, but sometimes shameless materialism is very fun.  On a different note, Jason and I are hoping that after Christmas we'll be able to save little by little for a new computer.  His is a G4, and it's great, but it's too old to run any games or music software for him.  We also want to replace it before we have a baby, since with computers, sometimes you have to know when to let go before you end up with a "vintage" model haha.  We're probably going to get the cheapest Macbook model and just make upgrades as needed.  Pretty exciting, I hope we can pull it off.
