(no subject)
Somehow, I always get dragged into this christmas/holiday thing.
I do this because I love you.
Step One -
Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) 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 Doctor/Rose icon that's just for me") to medium ("I wish for _____ on DVD") to really big ("All I want for [insert seasonal celebration here] 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 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 wishlist
1. Card! I love cards. They're pretty much awesome.
2. Mix CD. Because one can never have enough music.
3. Something random.
4. A favorite recipe.
5. A Mets shirt. Preferably, Wright.
6. Dr. Who DVDs
7. A favorite movie.
8. A new LJ layout.
9. A paid account.
10. A hug.
Yay. Anywhooo.
I burnt my finger. I was trying to light a match to stick it in a plate of vodka to set the vodka on fire.
Don't give me that look. I was being supervised.
But now my finger hurts. It's sad.
Also, in regard to Christmasy and holiday things, would just like to tell you whos addresses I have so if i don't have yours you can send it and it'll be all pretty and what not.
Anyway:
Lola
Jodi
Amelie
Allie

So. Send me your address and i'll send you some love. :)
Have I mentioned yet that I am going on vacation for winter break?
I am. I'm going to Israel for a week and shall be spending a day in London on the way back. I shall be there (in London, that is) on the 25th of January. Feel free to come out and say hello as I've never been to London and I could always use a tour guide.
That is all.
I do this because I love you.
