Searching For Chimichangas: for Santa Claus or los tres reyes

My Christmas Wish List

With the holiday season upon us, I know all of you reading this have one burning question on your minds: What does Jesse want for Christmas? Well I've thought about it and there are a few things I want. Of course I want nothing as much as I want pie, and snow, and a trip to my mountains, and to see my friends and family. But we are living in a material world, so here are some things I would also like to receive. Also note that these items are in no particular order.

1. Feetsy pajamas!

Few things (except hugs!) are warmer and fuzzier than pajamas with feets. Extra points if someone finds me the kind with the butt flap. It's a reall buzzkill to remove the whole outfit every time you have to use the bathroom. You don't necessarily have to buy me feetsy pajamas that look like a deranged Easter bunny, but I'm certainly not saying I wouldn't appreciate it/wear them in public if you did.

2. DKNY apple-shaped perfume.

This stuff just smells really good. Get me either the red kind or the light pink kind. Surprise me!

3. Some superfly sneakers.

Now I know what you're thinking: "Jesse, you're a sweet kid but you wouldn't know 'superfly' if it bit you in the ass. You think "superfly" was the time you wore your gay rainbow socks, plaid boxer shorts, a tie dye shirt, and an argyle sweater vest to the Morrow house party." That may be so, so I will leave the choice up to the buyer. I just want some sneakers, not for running but for looking cool.

4. Books.

I read the way most Mexicans watch tv: 3-4 hours every day. Here are some books on my list right now:

But maybe it's best to get me this:

5. Travel mug.

I'm going to need this to get me through my next semester at Smith. The travel mug in the picture is recycled, making it extra-awesome. I really just need one that won't spill or break when I inevitably drop it every day. So a travel mug designed by NASA and tested by a hippo should be fine.

6. A Honda that's as old as I am.

Hondas last forever. And old cars have character. At least, that's my excuse. This car is about what I could afford...if I worked for a summer instead of doing internships. Maybe get me an unlimited-ride metro card instead.

7. Miniature pig!

This is the cutest thing I have seen in a long time (an aside that will surely be too long for parentheses: Dear Friends Who Know Me Well: Please do not think I am giving up my love of hedgehogs! They still have a special place in my heart. It's just that the little piggies are so smart! You can train them and take them for walks! Although they can't get stuck in paper towel tubes. Clearly the answer is that I need both a hedgehog and a mini pig.) After that aside I feel this item needs no further explanation. On to the pictures!
