After those months of hiatus, I’m turning into a blogging machine. Maybe I finally have stuff to say?
Anyway, it’s my birthday sometime soon. And then Christmas sometime soon after that. So I shall make a list of what you should get me. This is for people like Melissa, who has as much imagination as a poet, and therefore need help. I’ll do my best to keep silly stuff out.
- Free Internet.
- One of those drink bottle backpacks.
- 2TB+ FW800 External HD.
- Rubiks Cubes with size sides strictly greater than 5.
- Books. Both for reading and graduate-level mathematics textbooks. Pester me if you want subject matter.
- Shorts.
- Tops. What I wear instead of jerseys.
- A pre-order of Diablo III.
- A pre-order of the special edition of Heart of the Swarm (when it becomes available).
- A desk lamp. That uses a stand (not a clip).
- A good quality multibox with at least 6 plugs.
- A desk organiser. For all my pens and stuff. Vertical storage (desk space is at a premium with speakers, laptop, and screen).
- A good quality bike.
There’s probably other stuff, but I forget. I’ll add it in if I remember at a good time (like when playing with Jaina).

You seem to imply (perhaps correctly) that graduate-level mathematics textbooks are never actually read.
