If you follow the site, you know that I’m Jewish and Candy is Agnostic Badass but it’s Christmas season here, there, and everywhere, and Hachette’s Forever Romance wants to make sure you have a whopping pile of books to read this holiday season. It’s still Hanukkah, it’s nearly Christmas, and there’s ample time to read, right?
So let’s get going with a Holy Big Honking Ample Prize offering. Leave a comment between right this minute, describing one thing you’d really like, esoteric or literal, this holiday season, and I’ll draw one random winner from the group. Comments close at midnight EST on Christmas Eve, 24 December, just as Santa fires up the Hybrid Sleigh to deliver all Hofftastic Holiday posters you ordered for Christmas Day.
If your comment is selected, you win…
One thing I’d really like this year?
A job to go to, that’d be nice.
For the DH not to be called up by the Reserves. But I already know he has to go out of country for a month this summer.
An updated kitchen would be lovely, but I’ll settle for a boatload of books…
What would I like? I’d like a vacation in Europe where I couldn’t take my work computer or my blackberry.
Have a happy Holiday.

One thing I’d like? A job after I graduate (or a big honkin’ pile of books to make up for the failure) 🙂
What I’d really like? To win! Why? Because I live with 5 men – 84 year old FIL, 39 year old hubby, 13, 11 and 11 months old sons. And a three year old Peki/pug boy dog.
‘Nuff said.
i have a few wishes.. World peace would be nice. But not attainable.
I would love to be able to go back to school and be able to afford it without being in debt for the rest of my carrier.
A kindle would be awesome.. but books are great too.
to be financially stable. Not having to worry if bills are going to be paid, or if I can afford to feed and clothe my daughter.
And a few other personal things, to go right.
Happy Yule to all you Bitches.
my word: looking46 almost there.. too funny
I would like financial freedom, so I could go back to school. Also, I’d like a Kindle, because I want to drink the KindleAid. I’d also like to learn to tolerate the taste of red wine, but I just don’t think it’s going to happen!
Happy (insert your holiday here), Everyone!
I would like more sleep and a cleaning service. Merry Christmas to me. (And all of you!)
Well, if I could say ANYTHING, I like the idea of being debt free and owning my own house. However, realistically, we got our major thing delivered yesterday. We bought a really big tv. It is fun!
Thanks,
Natasha
Some one to come and clean my house. Top to bottom. Do all those things I pretend not to notice.
Happy Holidays!
If I could have dishes that cleaned themselves life would be fabulous.
I’d like to read any of the books up there- so many great books, so little time!
Happy holidays to you guys!
I would like Hachette to give me back my dream job, which they took away last year when they folded Premiere and laid me and 25 of my friends/coworkers off. Merry Christmas, you miserable French bastards!
I don’t actually want all those books, but I ***DO*** want SBTB cover snark on ALL of them!
I would like a vacation somewhere warmer and with much less snow.
I would really, really like for my thesis supervisor to e-mail me and say “Yes, this is all great, Tessa; you are completely finished, and may now call yourself the Master.” I would dance with glee.
I would also like books. Any books, all books; I never have enough books!
I just moved from Virginia to Seattle and am home for just a few days around Christmas, so I would like extra days of vacation to spend more time with my friends and family!
I would love to have someone clean my house! Unfortunately, I would be embarrassed by the amount of dust/dirt currently residing in it thus I would have to clean it before that person comes to the house! Hmmm…need to think of something else 🙂 Have a wonderful holiday season and a great 2009 everyone!
I would love to be able to see my family. I am studying abroad this year and couldn’t afford to go home-and I didn’t feel right to intrude on any of my flatmate’s Christmases with their families. So I have my small tree on the kitchen table and will be opening my gifts tomorrow by myself. For the first time ever.
I know it was my own decision, and I have been away from home for the holidays before, and in much different circumstances. I would still love to see them.
I want a Sony Mylo! Ir’s like a PC but for on the go. It’s got camera, video, radio, music, and wi-fi internet and I want one SO BAD!
I actually thought about buying myself one, but it’s like $300 and I feel SO guilty just thinking about it. Sure, it’s MY money and everything but still.. damn my mother for making me so easy to feel guilt!
peace on earth, of course. I’d also like to be able to fly home to spend the holiday with my family in Ohio.
I would love to get into my top choice for school and then get enough money to afford to go
I would like my husband’s job to be less stressful for him!
My word is- wish11 so maybe my wishes will come true.
I want to go back to school, without amassing a bajillion dollars of debt. That’s my big wish – I can manage the rest of what I want from there.
I would really like our basement toilet to heal itself.
Good exam results in the New Year.
I would love to get for Christmas a ton of books to read while
avoiding
visiting the inlaws in January!
I’d like to meet either Josh Groban or Daniel Radcliffe during the next 12 months.
I’d also like to become an all-around healthier person.
one72 – Oammmmm, I am one with the world, Oammmm.
I’d like everyone to have a happy holiday season in the company of their loved ones!
Most of the times you can’t change the world but you can make your tiny spot better
🙂
Kristine, you took the words right out of my mouth.
Also, and slightly more frivolously, I want to find a bra that really fits well.
I’d like to see a positive pregnancy test after so many negatives before this year is over!
I would like some clarity in life, please.
Santa is treating me well this year- can’t say I’d ask for more- but I’d take the house cleaner if it was offered!
I would like a day where I can just sit in my apartment, make some hot chocolate, watch a movie/read a book and just relax. It has been way to crazy the last few months, and I would just like a day or two to relax!!
I would like more willpower. to lose the weight, to finish the MS, to be a better friend/ wife/ daughter.
If I can’t have that – maybe just a better fitting pair of jeans that don’t show my wonderoos when I sit down.
And a big honkin pile of books would be awesome too!
I would love my husband to get a full time job with benefits. He’s been underemployed for years now. And while we’re at it, I’d like some assurance that my job will still be there in six months.
I would like for our finances to get better this next year, so that I can make them worse again by having a baby! I would also love to lose some weight and motivate myself to write more.
I also hope the economy gets better so the family business that supports my Dad, sister, husband and Uncle plus others who are not family members, can earn more money and stay open!
Happy Holidays!
Merry Christmas!
Happy Hanukkah!
I would like to live closer to my family, and/or have a line on some beam-me-up-scotty-style transportation. 🙂 Happy Holidays, everyone!
