What will she have in her pockets?

A list of things that I would hypothetically want for Hannukah but will probably not receive, in no particular order, and aimed at relatives who may be considering asking. :

  • A Decemberists Hoodie. Unisex large (they say they run small.)
  • A notebook with lined paper, full size, not spiral bound, possibly with some kind of art print on the cover, maybe Monet or Van Gogh or Mucha? I used to do all of my writing in books like these and I've been craving one all semester.
  • iTunes money.
  • A new pair of red flats, or else permission to buy a new pair of red flats.
  • Slippers! Something like these that are both cozy and warm and that it would not be a tragedy to get stuck outside in during a fire alarm (because those happen. Because I live in a dorm.)
  • A new cover for my laptop keyboard. These things are wonderfully cheap and I have what is considered a 13-inch aluminum macbook pro even though it actually technically isn't one.
  • A belt. Just a simple leather one of average width and a not-flashy buckle will do. I hate belts but my pants don't stay up. 
  • Books and other things to read. I like post-apocalyptic novels. I like regular novels. I am stupidly fond of magical realism. I would love it if someone would find me a cosmonaut biography I haven't read (astronauts are okay too). 
    • I would love if people would return my cosmonaut biographies that I have leant to them to me. I need my copy of Two Sides of the Moon back. I think Ilan has it? Wrap it up and put a bow on top and we'll call ourselves even. :P
I don't think I'm asking for too much, and this may save some people the trouble of asking. Or not.
