Chocolate! But nothing with mint, orange, or any other weird un-chocolate-like flavor.
A large-ish fire-proof safe. I want something to put my most valued items in to keep them safe in case our house ever burned down or anything *knock on wood* -- like photos, my two binders of old writings, and my art folder and sketchbook. It needs to be at the very least wide/deep enough to hold a large sketchbook (I think 11"x14") and art folder.
Some of those good doohickey rolly things Dad put on his kitchen chairs to make them slide along the floor really well. I need enough to do four chairs.
Some Batman and Doctor Who christmas tree ornaments. Our geeky tree must be more geeky!
TARDIS cookie jar (can be bought from various online stores, including ThinkGeek.com.)
"Super Cat" (11 x 14") art print by Lora Zombie (can be ordered from http://www.eyesonwalls.com.)

Books

The second book in the Kingkiller Chronicle series: The Wise Man's Fear by Patrick Rothfuss.
The Hunger Games trilogy (The Hunger Games, Catching Fire, and Mockingjay) by Suzanne Collins.
A Dance With Dragons by George R.R. Martin.
The Princess Bride by William Goldman
Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Season 8 graphic novel collections -- volume #8.
The Readers' Advisory Guide to Genre Fiction by Joyce G. Saricks
Gargoyles SLG comic books by Greg Weisman and assorted authors. They can be purchased through Amazon.com by searching for "Gargoyles comic"; I think there's about six volumes out right now.
Alternatively, I'd also be happy to receive pretty much any book/comic from my Goodreads.com "to-read" list as well -- which you can view right here.

Clothes

Some "touch-screen" winter gloves -- gloves that have specialized finger padding that allow you to still use touch screen devices like your iPhone. (Ask Chelle, she has some!)
"Dandy Lions" Girly Eco Hooded V-Neck shirt from Threadless.com -- size small.
Socks -- I prefer plain black, but I am also partial to stripes and argyle print.
A pair of simple, foldable, black ballet flats. (You can buy them through many places online, www.fitinclouds.com is an example. Just Google "foldable flats" and it comes up with a ton of options; even Amazon carries them, I believe.) Size 8.5 or equivilant, please.

Miche Bags & Shells
