10 Things I Want For Xmas . . . But Probably Won’t Get

     The title is pretty self-explanatory.  Oh, I wanted more run-of-the-mill things for Christmas….books, music…that kind of thing.  But I have these deep longings for something else for Christmas….things that very likely won’t come to pass…but are still lots of fun to think about.  Thus, I have compiled a list.

 

1.  A Biplane Ride.
I have seen local signs advertising bi-plane rides.  Pretty pricey.  But I wouldn’t mind paying if:
A) My family would let me do it without protest.  #unlikely

B) I have no clue what this pilot is like.  I could wind up with a wannabe stunt pilot and end up sky-diving instead of flying.  Or they could just be . . . not all there . . . rather like the attendants at theme parks with the very important job of making sure you’re fastened into your death-defying ride properly – but you have to beg them to double check your harness.
C) I don’t know if the bi-plane has a mounted machine gun – and frankly, the flight wouldn’t be as much fun without that.

 

Please don’t freak out – I’m normal, I swear. 

 

 

2.  Teek the Teek

If you don’t know who Teek is – I am very sorry for you indeed.  I know his picture is a little ugly – but he’s adorable once you see him in cation.  This mischievous little creature is one of the heroes of Star Wars: Battle for Endor – a spin off movie George Lucas made after Return of the Jedi AND IF YOU HAVEN’T SEEN THE EWOK ADVENTURE MOVIES I’M VERY SORRY FOR YOU INDEED.
