This is a static copy of In the Rose Garden, which existed as the center of the western Utena fandom for years. Enjoy. :)
I want....
An Apple MacBook Pro with Final Cut 3.5 HD, Adobe Illustrator CS2, and Parallel Windows, so I can work on my artistic genius.
Oh, and I want an Ipod just so I can dl all my Teena Marie and Alicia Keys songs...but I digress.
So right now, I am writing my annual letter to Oprah in Chicago for those items.
What do you all want?

TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS
Seriously, I have it all worked out. If I could get a 1% interest rate, with twenty million dollars I could draw $200,000 a year in interest, which is still over $100,000 after taxes. That is enough money. And then when I die I can pool it with y'all's legacies to set up the Utena Project. The Utena Project is divided into two subprojects. The first is the Mikage Seminar, which gives grants to the world's best psychologists and philosophers to figure out the cause of people's insecurities and how insecurity is tied to immaturity. The second is the Ohtori Liberation Fund, which hires social critics and policy wonks to bring the Mikage Seminar's research to bear on modern civilization -- how can we, as a people, grow up?
Thoroughly pulled out of my ass, but worth doing.
I would also like a copy of Spore, but that is not happening. Maybe next Christmas, if I'm lucky.

Oo, you're wicked smart, I wouldna thought of that.
Mm... as for what I want for Christmas... man, that's a tough one. Too much crap, I'm sure. I'd settle for an Amtrak ticket from D.C. to Winston-Salem for the 26th of November right now, though (die, Greyhound, die!).
I really wouldn't mind getting the soundtrack for Petite Cossette, the Human Crossing DVD's, several alarm clocks (what? I collect them), lots and lots of yaoi manga, the Utena movie, and several Barnes and Noble gift cards. Oh, and I wanna make out with that French exchange student But that one is probably the most plausible out of all those things (I Christmas parties which involve mistletoe and alcohol ).

I would be completely happy if I could simply spend the day with my grrlfriend. Alas, that will not be happening.

And that's about it....

I want to be able to give someone a gift they like so much they cry with happiness.
I'm such an idiot. It would be the best present ever.
I can't afford to give out presents this year, though.

The beaches here are lovely, and the night life can't be beat.
Or so I'm told.

*snicker* I'm seriously considering driving to St. George over the long weekend, just so I can see the stars. ;) I haven't seen the beach since last summer.

A Sega Saturn and the Utena videogame would be nice. Or at least, that's what I'm hoping to get. While most people spend Christmas day trying to set up their gifts, I'll be attempting to translate mine.

I'm hoping to get a Diana Troi doll to go with my Cpt. Picard action figure that my friend got for me.
I've got a load of PC games I want and some of my manga series's i've been neglecting to buy. Plus there was that death lazer I wanted for my secret underground lair...

You know, if you tell people about your secred underground lair it won't be a secret anymore.

Edmundo O'Gorman said once that "christmas is the revenge of the merchants because Jesus Christ drove them out of the temple with whip on hand" ... he was right... still... I don't care, I want enough money to buy the utena movie and the limited edition of the Hellsing OVA

But but but, the Q action figure probably has instant cocky omnipotent flirtation with Picard action. (Is there a Q? I mean, there must be if there's a Troi one.)
