Ok, so that’s clearly not a secret, as you’re here on my blog and well, the Christmas wishes are below.  But yes, I’ll be hosting this edition of the Secret Project, allowing miss brandy to take some time off.

Not familiar with the Secret Project? Check out the original post here (can you believe it’s been almost a year?), and the first of the Secret Crush spin-off project here.  There are details on those pages about how to participate if you’re interested and have something you just can’t keep to yourself any longer.

And rest assured – the hijacking of the secrets did not result in any compromise in anonymity.  Promise.

Anyway, onto the Secret Project: Christmas Wish edition:

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

1. My Christmas wish is a simple one…. I want a reunion episode of the West Wing… It breaks me up that the show ended and seeing a new episode would put a huge smile on my face! I don’t think I am alone on this one

2. I should wish for our house to sell since it’s been on the market for awhile, or for me to get a job that actually pays, or for my dad to find a job, or for my sister to be able to plan her wedding without killing her fiance and anyone else in her path.  I should wish that my sister-in-law has a healthy baby next week, and my baby sister gets into the college she wants next fall, but all I really want are those damn shoes at Bakers.  I should know better than to walk past shoe stores.

3. I want to spend Christmas with just my dad again this year. All my favourite ones are with him. My mom’s sister (my Aunt) is dying from cancer and no one knows if this will be her last, but I wish I could just have another quiet one with him, rather than my mom’s huge loud family.

4.   It’s sad and pathetic, but for Christmas, I’d really like my sex drive back. Newlyweds should be able to remember the last time they knocked socks.

5. My Christmas Wish: That any baked goods I create for gifts are actually edible. And that I wake up to find Michael Buble` in my Christmas stocking, because he’s a stone cold fox. He’d also be super popular for Carols on the day.

6. I just don’t want it to be cancer.

7. I should wish for world peace, I just want someone to make me banana bread.

8. I wish Brittany Murphy was still alive. So, so sad.

9. My Christmas wish is for people who have jobs to stop complaining about them to people who don’t. It’s especially hard to hear around the holidays!

10. My Secret Wish for the holidays: not to gain any weight with all the treats I plan on eating! I’m a good stone over my proper weight and I don’t plan on cutting back this holiday season.. that’s what January is for, right?

~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~

What’s your Christmas wish?

Hmmm, someone who knows my heart sent in #9.I wish that people would quit telling me how wonderful it is that I have all the time in the world to do what I want because I don't have a job. We're fucking drowning and I'd swap every free hour of the day if it meant I was bringing in some income.
