It was brought to my attention last week by one of my friends (Katie or Mike) that I had not posted my Christmas wish list. I didn't find this odd, because I don't celebrate Christmas. Let me be upfront here; I apologize if this comes across as coarse.
We don't believe in Christ on Shimmeron. Therefore, I never celebrated Christmas.
Then, someone explained to me that you don't have be a Christian to celebrate Christmas; it is really just a great excuse to buy presents for friends and ask for stuff you may or may not need.
Thus, I decided I was in! Kristina recommended I look into celebrating Festivus... but then Kristin informed me it was celebrated on Dec. 23, which is 2 days before Christmas. But I needed to give my friends some time to buy me gifts! So, this year, Tom Comet is celebrating Christmas.
Thus, a couple of things my lacy, spacy heart desires:
A lifetime supply of hydrogen. Hydrogen is a very popular source of energy for Shimmeronian vehicles. It is hard to obtain at the fueling stations in Oregon. I actually don't know where to find it online either. But trust me, my vehicle needs it. I haven't driven anywhere in a few years, as I ran out in 2005.
Microfiber dusters are a must for personal hygiene.
Aqua Net is a necessity for voluminous hair.
"Earth Girls are Easy" DVD. Story of my life.
Earth boys tell me going commando is not always appropriate. Thus, I would enjoy these metallic boxers.
While you're at it, these undies for Spectra.
This shirt would be perfect for going out. '80s night, maybe? Size small, please.
Mesh and lamé: need I say more?
The pros love Kryolan makeup. I am a pro, obvs! There ain't no such thing as "too much glitter."
I am a fix-it man; although I don't generally go for Black-n-Decker, this cordless screwdriver is amazing!
I love ABBA and I love this movie. Who need's Mamma Mia! when you have Muriel's Wedding?
The entire Ace of Base catalog. I left my copies on a space taxi.
Not only does it star Cher and feature Estelle Getty, but Mask deals with the universal theme of alienation. And it's incredibly heartwarming.
This sterling silver ring will serve as a constant reminder that I have 4 loving girlfriends. It is also mesh!
It is a little-known fact that I can swim faster than Michael Phelps. Unfortunately, because I am from Shimmeron, I can not participate in the Olympics--something about how one must be an Earth citizen. Nevertheless, I continue to swim daily, and would love this mesh bag to store my wet Speedo in. In Neon Lime, please.
This chlorinated water you humans use in your swimming receptacles are wreaking havoc on my scalp! I would love a swimming cap. In blue, please (it matches my hair).
Again, with the chlorinated water; I hear this hair conditioner, "Esperma de Ballena", works wonders!
I suppose that is all I could use at the moment. Of course, I wouldn't be opposed to surprises, such as a pair of Moon Shoes or a trip to the Space Needle.
Sincerely,
Tom!
