Q: What's on your holiday wish list this year?

Is it wrong for a grown man to want a toy robot from Uncle Fun (1338 W Belmont Ave, 773-477-8223) for Christmas? I don’t think so. Did I mention that it can walk and lights up, and makes a shooting noise?

I want something I can’t have: additional sleep. With a three-year-old who’s an early riser, and daughter No. 2 on the way, there is no light at the end of my sleep-deprived tunnel. Maybe I should just ask for an iPhone.

Last year, I received a plastic archery set with suction-cup darts from my brother. This year, I’m hoping for something more practical: perhaps a cute winter coat from H&M (see hm.com for locations).
