Some day I'd love to be the owner of a Curta calculator, but considering the cheapest I've ever seen them is $700 I don't think that'll ever be a Christmas gift. A tax refund gift to myself perhaps one day, but certainly not a Christmas gift.

Get lots more exercise. It won’t cure it, but it really helps

A KVM or bottle of Russell’s 15

KVMs are awesome but when I got a cheaper one it didn't work with my video card so I ended up with a $300 one.

Obligatory impractical / intangible: Four decades of excellent, indefatigable mental health.

Outlandish: The double glazing is overdue for replacing. (Follow-up: Someone to clean up the inevitable mess that would make.)

Practical: Cotton boxers. I asked for slippers instead. (If this startles you from some kind of reverie, and the double glazing thing wasn't a hint, I am British and middle aged. Slippers are a necessity.)

Some things for my daughter’s room (a nightstand, a bedding set, and a table lamp) to help her transition to a “big girl bed” from her crib. But they’re not “fun” gifts or toys so I’m not expecting to get them even though they’d be the most helpful. She has enough toys.

One of the rentals I'm trying to get into to contact me back so I can leave my house and finally get this divorce on the road.

More tools. A knock off power probe, a set of wrenches, mid length metric sockets and a few more pairs of pliers from amazon.

I want to be able to buy out the entirety of my geeky/nerd knick knack store. But I most likely won't because I'd feel cluttered with so many figurines and other stuff that I'd end up donating it.

Any family? Or a specific one?
