Christmas wishlist

[petronia]

People (by which I think I mean, Chrissie) actually asked so I sat down and tried to make one.

This is how it turned out, in no particular order:

* noise-cancelling earphones for the metro
* some sort of basic sound editing/DJ software, foolproof, for fool purposes as follows: 1) making mixed FSTs 2) pushing the fader between songs at house parties
* this
* this
* by which I mean mp3s but a record player younger than I am so I can get reasonable sound quality out of the vinyl I occasionally can't stop myself from buying wouldn't hurt
* ...[insert .txt listing of tracks, headed by "Wurz + Blosse" and "808 The Bass Queen"]
* an ibook, why not
* stockings/leggings for winter
* this (being pleased that I can read it)
* that all SSBB writers might brush up on their grammar
* a yoga mat
* this (or, say, Super Bust-a-Move 2)
* icons featuring characters I write about, so I can use them when I post fic
* suitable Oshitari icons for yuushidiaries
* more classic SF novels, to whittle away at my ignorance
* a 1GB or 2GB data key

I'm not trying to become a DJ, really. >_> (Though in this lifetime I'd like to DJ the Saturday night dance at an anime convention, ahaha.) Uh, maybe I should sit down and make/update a list of tracks I'd be willing to trade for, since I have DSL now and have basically not used it for any higher purpose than downloading more techno.

Numark has a turntable that's got a USB hookup, so you can patch it directly into your computer and record vinyl to MP3.

Best idea ever? Quite possibly.

Well, can't help you with the rest, but if you ever need someone to do a grammar check on any SSBB stuff, I'd be willing?

Hmm, being totally ungifted at iconmaking, and ignorant of music, 'fraid I can't help you with much here.

Congrats on DSL, though. Once I got DSL I totally filled my HD to bursting.

If I knew your address I'd send you some of my old ones. XD; onyabear at gmail if you're interested.

Does this mean you will hypothetically write Viewfinder longfic if you hypothetically receive a few dozen Asami/Feilong icons? xD

(and instead of katamari, you could always play a Japanese fighting game based off Les Miserables (http://zephranthes.livejournal.com/26302.html)!)

RE: classic SF, what early LeGuin have you read? Or is that not classic enough?
