===== Specific Items ===== | ===== Specific Items ===== |
These are individual items that have caught my desire, in rough order of preference: | These are individual items that have caught my desire, in no particular order of preference: |
? Replacement Headphone Cable | |
: Lately, my headphones have developed a nasty intermittent buzz in one ear... but they have [[https://smile.amazon.com/Shure-EAC64CL-Detachable-Earphone-Earphones/dp/B0046HADYG/|replaceable cables]]! | |
? Replacement Laptop Keyboard | |
: I've got four broken keys and one missing — so far. [[https://smile.amazon.com/GinTai-Backlit-Keyboard-Replacement-Inspiron/dp/B07594238P/|A replacement]] that fits a Dell Inspiron 15-5565 or 15-5575 would be nice. | |
? Replacement Laptop Display Assembly | |
: Noticing a theme, here? The screen //itself// on this laptop is fine, but the hinges, cover, and bezel are all busted up. However, it's cheaper to replace [[https://www.parts-people.com/index.php?action=item&id=27777|the whole assembly]], screen and all — dontcha just love economics? | |
? Replacement Watch Band | |
: Definitely a fixer-upper Christmas, I guess. My trusty smartwatch has not been adorning my wrist for some time, as the latch has broken. I'm looking for a 22mm watchband, with quick-release pins, a sturdy latch, and waterproof materials. [[https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01MZ42B61/?coliid=I1B1KHF1120LYF|This one]] is visually nearly identical to the original, but if you want to surprise me with a different style I ask that you keep it tasteful. | |
? Headphone Accessory Cable | ? Headphone Accessory Cable |
: Egads, a non-replacement item? Well, sort of. The [[http://www.shure.com/americas/products/accessories/rmce-bt2|Shure RMCE-BT2]] is an //alternative// cable for my headphones that adds a microphone, remote control, and Bluetooth wireless capability to them — but sometimes you just can't beat wired sound (and no batteries!), so I want the actual //replacement// cable above even more slash as-well. | : The [[https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B07HYMWSGY/|Shure RMCE-BT2]] is an accessory for my headphones that adds a microphone, remote control, and Bluetooth wireless capability to them. |
? Nintendo Switch Pro Controller | ? A New e-Reader |
: The [[https://smile.amazon.com/Nintendo-Switch-Pro-Controller/dp/B01NAWKYZ0|Nintendo Switch Pro Controller]] is... a controller for the Nintendo Switch, I'm really not sure what else to say here. Don't be afraid to duplicate this one, the Switch can connect up to eight of them! | : My trusty old Nook is old and decrepit, and these days Barnes & Noble isn't the end-all, be-all of ebooks. No, that's Amazon, but I don't //like// Amazon, so instead I want to replace it with a [[https://kobobooks.com|Kobo]] e-reader. Ideally, I'd like the [[https://us.kobobooks.com/products/kobo-forma|Kobo Forma]], but its little sibling, the [[https://us.kobobooks.com/products/kobo-libra-h2o|Kobo Libra H2O]] would do nearly as well. |

===== Perennial Favourites ===== | ===== Perennial Favourites ===== |
/* ? <span #clothes>Clothing</span> | |
: I'm hard enough on clothes that I'm perpetually in need of new ones. | |
? Pyjamas | |
: Lounge-and-sleepwear in soft fabrics with light shirts and long pants. Beyond that, I don't care so much about style if they look cute. | |
? Shirts | |
: Long– or short-sleeved blouses, button-ups, “sport” shirts, or similar tops (no polos, please!). I prefer fairly loose and draping/“flowy” garments. Between 2XL and 3XL, “tall” sizes preferred. I //generally// wear neutral or subdued colours, but if it looks cute I'll try something bolder. | |
? Trousers | |
: Black or grey slacks; again, loose and swishy garments preferred. Roughly a size 21 (42″ waist, 34″ inseam). | |
? Kilts | |
: Kilts and kilted skirts are both comfortable and fun to wear. [[https://www.utkilts.com/special-order-ultimate-modern-utility-kilt-with-comfort-waist/|UT Kilts]] makes the best utility kilt I have ever worn, and I would happily wear another in any colour (44″ waist, 24½″ length — this //must// be special-ordered, unfortunately). | |
? Socks | |
: These [[https://www.utkilts.com/black-kilt-hose/|knit hose from UT Kilts]] are absolutely the //best socks I have ever worn.// They’re cool in the summer, warm even wading through the snow, have enough padding to prevent blisters and just flat-out //comfortable//. I linked the black ones, but they also have a variety of other colours — I'd be happy with black, grey, cream, or green. | |
? Underclothes | |
: Soft t-shirts of any variety (pocket Ts, long sleeves, &c.), 3XL or 2XL “Tall”. Knit boxers or boxer-briefs, in sizes matching the trousers above. For either, solid colours or //subtle// patterns, please; preferably dark.*/ | |
? Drinks | ? Drinks |
: As always, any beverage you think I might find interesting will be appreciated. In general, I like teas and coffees (both exotic and ordinary); ciders, ginger beers, and root beers (both hard and soft); whisk(e)y, rum, mead, gin, absinthe, and a variety of other spirits, liqueurs, and cordials. | : As always, any beverage you think i might find interesting will be appreciated.

: The [[https://shop.funraniumlabs.com/brands/BBotE.html|Black Blood of the Earth]] is the //best// coffee I have ever tasted, bar **none**.

? Whiskey | ? Whiskey |
: I'm mostly fond of Irish whiskey, although my ultimate favourite is [[http://penderyn.wales/|Penderyn Welsh whisky]].

? Liqueurs | ? Liqueurs |
: Irish Mist is always a solid standby; Drambuie is fine; Bushmills Irish Honey is pretty good; Ballotin chocolate bourbon is strangely incredible. Baileys will be used in coffee in place of cream and sugar, and be gone within days. I like a //very// wide variety, though — feel free to surprise me! | : Irish Mist is always a solid standby; Drambuie is fine; Bushmills Irish Honey is pretty good; Ballotin chocolate bourbon is strangely incredible.
