Christmas Wishlist
Snagged this from all over.
STEP ONE
# Make a post (public, friends-locked, filtered... whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. The post should contain your list of ten 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 to 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) can get in touch with you. Your home address is not required!
# 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 friends list (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 one person'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 guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just... wish, and it might come true. Give and you might receive. You'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
1. A header w/ all of my fave slash pairings. Just ask if you don’t know them all. There are a few.
2. An animated John Barrowman or Jack Harkness mood theme. I’ve got a still JB one right now, but would love an animated one.
3. Buy or make a gift for an adult in need. Giving Trees are all over the place.
4. Donate time or money to a charity of your choice.
5. The latest Torchwood novels.
6. Doctor Who, Stargate SG-1, Star Trek Enterprise, and any number of other shows on DVD (US and/or UK).
7. A Livejournal gift certificate.
8. Tix to JB’s new concert in May (and a way to get there).
9. Either a Nintendo DS or a Wii.
10. A properly working car.
11. A holiday header w/ John Barrowman and Scott Gill.
