I’m always grateful for gifts, but I do have a few guidelines for family members who ASK ME WHAT I WOULD RATHER HAVE. I do have a running list of stuff I’d like to have but would never actually purchase for myself – and I also have a list of things that I would much rather purchase for myself:

• Socks
• Shoes
• Shirts
• Pants
• CDs / DVDs
• Software
• Food
• Books

There are also things I never would have expected to receive from anybody in a million years…

In other words: I was iPwnd by my own wife.
