I know I am not the greatest in copying and pasting. And, of course, I cant remember the "points of interest" from one post to put in for my  likes and dislikes. I could make it really easy and just say send me anything you want to, or I could just get on my knees and beg for some kind soul to list the questions for us dumber ones. Please???

I copied mine from last year, but I did need to make a few changes

My favourite colour is: Green
My favourite animal is: I love big cats.. white tigers are my favorite, but I like little cats too, especially little grey ones..
My favourite food is: pizza, though I have done an extensive search of Charlottetown for the best seafood or clam chowder.. :P
Clothing wise I wear a size: 2XL or larger.. I love big clothes.. it's not often I find something that's baggy
I collect:books, movies, Stephen Colbert related things, cat related stuff
My favourite genre of book and/or film is:non-evil vampire, disney
I'm allergic to: calories.. they make me swell right up.. *L*  nothing really
I'm not ungrateful but if I were to receive this/these I would probably cry: dog poop?
I REALLY LOVE: gadgets.. really nerdish things.. as I like to say, sh*t that does sh*t.. *L*  it doesn't even have to be anything big.. I have a magnifying glass with a light in it.. it goes everywhere I go. *L*

I do ask for no makeupy stuff, or anything meant to be put on the lips. It just won't get used.

Candy/chocolate is always a good option. *G*

I need an exception to the mailing deadline, as one of the items I have picked out for my recipient will not get here to me until after the deadline has already passed.

I am not mailing overseas and I'm 100% certain my package will arrive no more than three days - tops - after I mail it, so it will still get there well before Christmas.

August 1980: Diagnosed with Familial Juvenile Hyperurecemic Nephropathy (FJHN)
8.22.10:   Began dialysis through central venous catheter
8.25.10:   AV fistula created

Good health is just the slowest possible rate at which you can die.

Okay so, Jean, that's me.
Favorite color is pink
Favorite Animal is cats, I have one orange one who is a character like no other.
Favorite Food Italian.
Clothing size. Well, I never wear sweat shirts, but love T-shirts, so an X-large I think
I collect: miniatures. Most of them are cups and saucers, but I also have a number of other " tiny " things too.
Allergic to: Penicillin, so please don't shop that for me.
Im not ungrateful, but if I were to receive this I probably would cry. I have no idea how to answer this. I cry over everything, so it doesn't make much difference.
I really love: Candy, scarves, something from where you live or anything at all. I am easy to please.
