Mrs. Claus brought me a djembe today -- so all of my material wishes for the season have come true. Other than that I'd like to see a cure for all of the nasty incurables (does not include romantics) that torture the bodies and minds of so many, especially kids...

Since you ask, I'd like to have about thirty feet of my small intestine removed, please. That's enough, I think.

What I really want for Christmas? Housing, food, and a respectable income at a job I actually like.

Well, the Mudcat CDs have arrived and been duly laid away and wrapped to be be given t me at the appropriate time. So that is my Christmas sorted.

And thanks, Santa anon, for the Peace Badge, which arrived this morning, and I've been wearing it today. I suppose it's really the badge version of "From a Distance".

Only just over one day to go now, that's if you live in England. Well I wish you all receive something along the lines you have wished for: be it a good man, great music ( or maybe it should be a great man and good music and peace in our troubled world.

What I have wished for may come true, there again it may not, but there is nothing wrong with wishing. Can't tell you what it is or it may not come happen!

Happy Christmas to you all, or I would prefer "Happy Holiday" as the Americans say, that covers all ethnic groups.

I would like that feeling of excitment when you woke up when you were about 5 years old and your parents were in bed while you sneeked into the living room oh so quiet and opened all your presents with your siblings. That was just the best.
       But I'm a little to old now, so for everyone to wake up on Christmas morning say thanks to who or what ever they beleive in and say thankyou for the day and smile the whole day through. That would be a great Christmas for many people I think, especially me but I'm working away this one but hame on the 27th so I'll make up for it then

relief from debt!

When I was in the adult world, working a day job - this was a modest and manageabe issue - now that I am working as a musician, I will spend the rest of my working life atoning for past consumer-based sins! (not really consumer, college loans, mortgage, cars, and taxes are the biggest part of it). So maybe Santa will bring me a winning lottery ticket - not too much, just enough to get this monkey off my back!! Oh, and maybe enough to buy me a Glen Reid baritone guitar!

For me? Less stress. X-mas, gigs, music to research, wedding to plan, kid to raise, 9-5 job...sheesh, I need a day off.

In general, pretty much the same...some peace for the world at large.

I'd like my for my Dad, who has suffered through a stroke and two hip replacements over the last couple years, to be in less pain and be able to get himself around a little easier. It's really hard for him to be unable to work and to do all the things around the house/yard he used to love to do. He really feels 'useless' and depressed at times. I wish he'd believe me when I tell him that all the things he gives to us now - his time, his love and his practical wisdom and advice - are just as important as doing chores and earning money. Maybe even more so. I'll just keep on telling him ...

And I wish that every awful upsetting headline was followed by one of peace and hope. And that people would focus on creating MORE peace and hope in their own little 'worlds', in their own families and communities. That way 'world peace' might just be a reality someday ...

I wish more ways could be found to meet our needs/wants WITHOUT polluting and destroying our beautiful planet. And that the powerful 'world leaders' - political, economic AND industrial - would see fit to help us make it so.

That seems like a real tall order, so I'll stop now. Wonder if Santa could fit all that on his sleigh ...

Peace and joy

Dreams do come true....

I got Sean Connery covered in chocolate. I had to eat my way into it.

I hope everyone else had some of their dreams come true too.

(OK, it was a pair of Sean Connery DVDs, but they were still covered in chocolate!)

With anything?
