Dear Santa,

(rad vintage postcard)

I know it's kind of last minute, but I was thinking about "the perfect gift" you could bring me for Christmas. Writing these kinds of letters was easier when all I wanted was my very own copy of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Now I want other, more complicated things.

• Could you do my law school applications?
• Could you unpack all my college stuff and then repack the right stuff into a suitcase?
• Could you give a few key people weekend flights to DC? Beginning with a California-DC flight for New Years?
• Could you make my morning insecurities go away?
• Could you bring me the way Christmas Eve used to feel? Magical. Restless. Innocent.

I supposed in the absence of all that, I would really love a pair of fancy shoes.

Thanks for everything,

britt
