Since I did it last year, I thought I’d better make a birthday list. I’ve ordered it from most reasonable to least reasonable (approximately). I leave it to you to judge where it crosses over from one to the other, but the curve starts getting rapidly steeper starting at about #5 (which is where my realistic hopes and expectations end).
I’ll leave it there, before I start getting into giant plushy Turian territory. Nobody wants that.

Turian plushy :D
You can have one too, in my imaginary world of getting everything I want.
I will seriously buy you a whole Lemon-Orange Flan next time I’m in Vancouver (this AUGUST!) if you come out with Brandon for one of our sketch jams! I would love to meet you one of these days
No flan required, for meeting me (though maybe I should re-think that position, in general).
Sketch-jam-wise I make no promises, but if you can go get coffee with me and Brandon while you’re in town, then that would be great. I know where all the best muffins are hiding.
You will get your hiding muffins, and coffee. I will phone bradon and harass him about it when I’m in town, in August.
I would have to look in storage but I might actually have a first of Earth Sea in paperback
Then you, sir, are a damned lucky man!
Though I’m assuming the paperback has a different cover?

Don’t think I haven’t seen this!
I’d like to see her do an Argonian, from the Elder Scrolls games.

Happy (late? early?) birthday!
I think I’m due for a new pair of gentleman’s shoes too…
Thank you!
You should go for the gentleman shoes, and then at least one of us will have a new pair.
Why sister, the fact that over 50% of your list is reasonable is crazy. More unreasonable!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISTER!
Fabulous :) May you receive at least half of your list. What is your ideal type of birthday muffin?
Thank you!
On my birthday I ended up having, I think, a carrot walnut spice muffin. My enduring neighborhood favourite, though, is raspberry-blueberry banana oat, and that’s probably a better example of my ideal.
Both of those sound absolutely delectable, your favorite particularly so. We have a place in Minneapolis that makes amazing, cheap vegan muffins that I swear must have fairy dust in them or something, they’re that good. So light and fluffy and HUGE to boot :)
You gave up so soon after your giant shiny. I was just getting started figuring out how to get all these things for you! :-) Happy Birthday!
I think I got to “giant shiny”, and became intimidated by how long (and unreasonable) it could actually get, if I kept going. It was like looking into the cold and infinite dark of outer space.
And thank you!
Even drawn, a lemon orange flan looks delicious!
Fun post — thank you for sharing this…
:)
simply wonderful! hope you get ALL of the things on your list!
you inspired me to make a list of my own…as i have till the end of august to do so
:)
happy birthday!!!
Thank you. You should make one – it’s extremely satisfying!
I would get you new shoes if I had money!
That makes two of us, alas.
Can you throw in another ‘shiny’ for me? Thanks!
Great list. Love the island and the giant shiny.
That’s a great list..not to mention mostly delicious, Congrats on Freshly Pressed!

How wonderful! I felt all warm and fuzzy.
I really like the huge shiny thingy. Reminds me of those lovely crystals. Truly mesmerizing.
An entire citrus flan sounds wonderful. Hope you at least get a few things on you list. Congrats on being Freshly Pressed.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ! :)
I love the shiny!! Both of them haha. Today is my bff’s bday too. She doesn’t like coffee but she’s getting cupcakes, and she doesn’t know it yet. :) love your list. I may make one come July but without the cool drawings. *sigh*
Lucky bff! You should definitely make a list, if only to aim broad hints at your friends.
lovely pictures. Happy birthday!
Cute cartoons :)
Ooh… I would like my own “birthday shiny” tradition…lol…
I like the birthday shiny.

What’s a birthday shiny? Why don’t I ever get one of those? :(
Well, I’m usually the one buying a birthday shiny for myself. It’s a very satisfying tradition, though.
Wow.. Its so lovely :)
happy b-day… great pics! ;-)
Can someone tell me what he means by “shiny”? I feel very blank.
That’s my term for any kind of shiny thing, usually a crystal or mineral specimen of some sort. I collect them like a crazy treasure-obsessed person.
