Birthday Post Part 2
I appreciate everyone who sent me best wishes for my birthday today. I also appreciate the 100+ wall comments on facebook.
I am about to go shopping for my birthday so I will do something I rarely do and will actually shop on Black Friday. I am starting to think about what I want for Christmas.
I want this:
No. Not Steve Jobs. I want the iPad. I am going to try to talk my work into buying it for me.
What do you want for Christmas?

Clothes. I always want clothes.
oh… first btw :O
what i want is a ipad too..
happy birthday
hope you have a lovely day!
The iPad is sick, I wouldn’t mind one. I haven’t written up my Christmas list yet, that will be a chore and a half!.
Oh, Happy Birthday! [again]
Clothes. Typewriter. Salad spinner.
Very nice… hopefully you do get an Ipad ..
And I hope that you have a great 39th b-day! Only got me by 15 years :-p
An iPad wouldbe nice.
I can get an iPad for you. Well, minus the “i” part.
Time to register the kiddos for another semester of college, taxes are due in January I think the best gift for me is cash.
I love my iPAD. It’s the best gift on the planet!
For Christmas I’d like a bag of silver dollars from the US mint. I’m going to need real money after the dollar collapses.
To have my husband to myself for a whole day!
But since I doubt that is going to happen, I will take whatever I can get!
(I really dont see the allure of the ipad. It seems overrated and overpriced to me for what it is.)
I’d really like a smart phone and a pair of Ecco hiking boots to support my geocaching addiction.
Happy birthday Dan.
we set out today with the intention of getting the ipad and went home with the gtablet there are lots of new tablets out on the market so it would be worth researching to see if its really what you want
Happy Birthday, Dan!
So how did Black Friday shopping pan out for you~ strike gold? I’m too chicken to go anymore. Went bowling instead.
I want a 32 or 64 GB iPod touch.
I want a kobo; it’s smaller and lighter and uses eink
Sadly, I doubt I’ll get it for Christmas so I will have to spring for one myself once I am finished school and have a job.
Happy Birthday!!! And many many more.
While you are shopping I want an old fashioned 6 egg poacher…the kind you put water in the bottom and the cups set in a rack on top of the pan. Picture here! We wish me a Merry Christmas, We wish me a Merry Christmas, We wish me a Merry Christmas and a Happy Egg Year.
i want a bf! jk maybe :P
No Dan you can’t have that guy for Christmas. I’m sure he’s taken! Oh did you mean the iPad? Oh sorry.
i don’t think there is a particular thing i want. i would be happy to have money for tuition and travelling to school. i would also like it if the school i want to go to would contact me so i can enroll. apart from that, i don’t really care for recieving things from people, it always feels like there are too many strings attached.
All I want is to get my wireless router hooked up so I can use my laptop, while the bf can do what he wants on the desktop.
@mommachatter - I have one of those…love it!
I want an iPhone…so original
.
my list is a bunch of news because my other ones are… old.
new uggs, new ipod, new external hard drive
nice!!!
good choice for sure, dan. I’m sure your wifey will get you whatever you want.
and if she doesn’t
I’ll sing you “happy birthday mister dan”
i want to go visit my girlfriend.
all i want for christmas is you.
employment ( and maybe world peace)
Some games, some books and a hairdryer
I was going to say ‘peace on earth’, but you’ve talked me into the iPad.
Well I wouldn’t mind having Steven Jobs!
But all I want for Christmas is a job/money/college paid for
You don’t want Steve Jobs? Or at least his money?
I don’t know what I want for Christmas. I never know what I want for it or for my birthday. It must be absolutely awful to shop for me. I wouldn’t mind having an iPad, but since none of my relatives have as much money as Steve Jobs I won’t bother to ask for it.
I don’t mind receiving a set of professional quality violin strings. The kind that costs more or less $50 per set. But books would be mostly appreciated.
And a plane ticket that will take me Tennessee to visit my fiancee.
my 21st birthday is a few days before Christmas. :] I have no idea what I want.
hmmm… I want my own plane Dan . LOLOLOL
A shit ton of makeup from Sephora
My makeup xmas list is always ridiculous…
Because those things are fucking awesome.
Oh, and a polaroid camera.
I want you for Christmas.
Happy birthday! i want something nice like a book..
I hope you get it!!
A Wii. I’ve been debating over getting one for 3 years and finally decided that this is the year.
I want an iPad, too!!!!
I want an automatic feed photo scanner.
What I want can be obtained by neither love nor money.
Perfume… and a Victorian era carousel of specimen vials.
:S
World peace.
A girlfriend maybe
I really want to know whether I be kept on at the temporary job I have got at the moment after the current contract has finished, if not I would like to find myself quickly back into employment in the New Year.
A surprise!
Happy Birthday. I want clothes.
@llamalima - Just what I need, and some to share. Not too little lest I be tempted to steal. Not too much lest I become vain and have the illusion I can manage without God. Did Solomon learn this too late? Or did he lose what he earlier had?
Clothes! I always want clothes and a camera would be nice too.
I want an iPad.
And a HD camcorder and an iPhone 4 16gb. That’s all.
I want affordable dental insurance for senior citizens for Christmas.
A sweet date with my new hubby is close to the top of the list.
As far as items go, I’m completely okay with gift cards to places like michael’s or starbucks. That’d make me happy. Even one to wal-mart… So what if I mainly end up spending them on other people… At least it’s money that gets to stay in my pocket for once! LOL But yeah… 
I enjoy making stuff for people, so michael’s is my fav. As far as items, I’d like the new Taylor Swift CD… And a few other items. I’d also like a new, gas efficient car. My old one… just isn’t up to par. 
The repairs to it would cost well over the cost to just suck it up and buy a new one, so I’m just hoping it holds out for the next several years until I can find money to set aside to save up for one… *sigh* It never ends. LOL But yeah. I’d also like that little scrapbook machine called “Cricut”. Sounds like a great idea. 
We shall see! I’m not expecting much, though. I don’t like disappointment. Haha 
My Sweetie is saving for a house, so I don’t want to expect much from him… My parents barely have enough for themselves, so I’d feel better receiving little as far as cost goes…. My siblings can barely afford themselves…. So, yeah… I try to keep my wish list that I actually give out limited. I really only create a list to keep them from bugging me about how I never want anything and they have no idea what to get me for Christmas. LOL I’m pretty easy to satisfy. Just be sure to put thought into it, and I’ll be fine! 
*hugs* Glad you had a nice birthday,
~*Akarui Mitsukai*~
Love and I will get plenty of that…And I want them to stop playing Happy Xmas (War is Over). War is not over (there is two going on right now) and I am tired of hearing that song. If you listen to the radio (which I usually don’t except for football) you would think it was the only Christmas song ever written!
@akarui_mitsukai - you should try walking…just a suggestion.
I wouldn’t want Steve Jobs either, but I wouldn’t mind having Steve’s Job.
A winning powerball ticket. And for Scott to get this job with the Charlotte Bobcats so he’d only be three hours away instead of three days.
I’d rather have Steve Jobs…then you could have as many iPad’s and other Apple products as you’d like!
Books, books, and MOAR books.
i want an ipad so bad–they are awesome.
I’d like to read more from you.More details:<a href="http://www.nike2us.com/">Cheap Jordans
