antpowerSo, it's that time again, Christmas wishlist time. I know I've been terribly horrid with keeping up with my flist lately, so if you'd like to post a link to your own wishlist in a reply, I would be happy to do whatever I can to bring the love. Or you know, just post and tell me what you'd like anyway, and I'll see what I can do.
Step One
- Make a post to your LJ. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a Snape/Hermione icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for Christmas is a new car/computer/house/TV.") The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real life things (not fics or icons), make sure you include some sort of contact info in your post, whether it's your address or just your email address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.
- Also, make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.
Step Two
- Surf around your friendslist (or friendsfriends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. And now here's the important part:
- If you see a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make someone's wish come true. Sometimes someone's trash is another's treasure, and if you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use--or even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free--do it.
You needn't spend money on these wishes unless you want to. The point isn't to put people out, it's to provide everyone a chance to be someone else's holiday elf--to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not--it's your call.
There are no rules with this project, no guarantees, and no strings attached. Just...wish, and it might come true. Give, and you might receive. And you'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
My Wishes
1. Meg's return to fandom. I miss her terribly.
2. LJ User Icons. Mine are up in about 4 days and I will cry without them.
3. Good health. Just one day of energy and no pain and frolicksomeness, that would be dandy.
4. Supernatural Season 1 DVD. Is it even out here yet???
5. A pretty LJ layout with pirates. Arrrrg!
6. Actually, an extension of my paid LJ would be handy too. I really need to get myself a credit card.
7. A Slytherin scarf.
8. Fairy lights.
9. A good credit rating. [ROFL, that is never going to happen]
10. A pretty yellow sundress.
Yay for Christmas!!!
