asking for what i want

I'm terrible at asking for what I want. Or need, for that matter. A lot of times I've been too shy to ask for something that I wanted very badly, that it turns out afterward the giver would've been more than happy to provide.
Pfeh. Oh well.

Z is going to play hooky tomorrow and do some Christmas shopping.
This is my only chance. I'm giving him a List. We'll see if he can save Christmas.

If not, everyone gets Valentine's Day gifts.
