Sorry, dear Santa. Been runnin' like a mad thing and hadn't had time to add to the list. I'll update the ancient hints version for you now:

1. what is your age range? A very narrow range: 32

2. gender? Female

3. Do you have a favorite color? Depends on the time of year as to the tone, but blues and greens are a safe bet

4. favorite authors/ type of book? The old list is pretty accurate, but in the last year I've read a lot of Dana Stabenow and other mystery writers, and I've enjoyed them

5. what books have you really been wanting? Argh! I forget the author....Patricia Cromwell, maybe?, the latest solving of the Jack the Ripper saga...It caught my attention in the used bookstore the other day

6. what type of music do you like? anything with more than one note

7. what cds have you really been wanting? yours

9. what is your t-shirt size? xl

10. do you collect anything? if so, what? Still the same collection of animals and animal hair as the past few years...Please, no more. Other collections are strange percussion instruments and elephants

11. what are some of your other hobbies? been teaching arts classes lately, so I've been absorbing ideas for lessons from all kinds of sources.

12. do you prefer gold-tone or silver-tone jewelry? silver, always

13. please include anything else you feel is important that would help your secret santa know what you would like: The same as always, so long as it's from you, it's special. So don't fret too much, eh?

Allergies?: Penicillin, so please not that big box of mold you've been brewing up special.

Hope this ho-ho-helps,
