my two front teeth

hard to imagine that my christmas season is basically over. while the real day comes in a number of weeks this week has been a deluge of carol services, christmas dinners and mulled wine. however, now that everyone has run away (the junior college room members all had to move out yesterday and the mcr is largely leaving in the next week) there is basically nothing more christmas stuff to do. however, i have finished (mostly) buying presents and i'll wrap them this week to ship out.

as for my own christmas list, well, it's all rather hard considering that the majority of people buying for me live across the pond. but, if i had my way, here's what i would want:
* a new duvet cover and really comfy pillow cases - maybe even sheets (something with fun colours)
* a set of red wine glasses
* harry potter 4 (b/c i still haven't read it)
* a ticket to the big three ball (110 pounds) which is in the spring and is at magdalen this year (new college next year!)
* the massive rothko calendar at blackwell's art shop (35 pounds!)
* a toaster
* a new umbrella because somebody nicked mine
* peace on earth (unlikely)
* diesel shoes (just as unlikely)

so, yeah, that's about it... more on life later
