Make a post to your journal. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related (fics, picspams, fanmixes) to medium (dvds, books, bracelets, etc) to really big (a new computer, a car, etc).
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 e-mail address where Santa (or one of his elves) could get in touch with you.

Surf around your reading list 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.
1. Rescue Dogs and Cats. I'm serious. Don't go buy an animal - go to the pound and find someone who's life is in your hands - someone with a past, a present and who wants a future with you more than anything in this world. Also, if you've got an extra ten bucks, or unused food, donate to a shelter. It saves lives.
2. Do something nice for someone totally randomly. I want you to send a care package, a card, something to someone who might really be uplifted. Do it for me and tell me about it - that will be amazing gift :)
3. Dedicate a night to play halo with me. Let's set something up - each of us get a sixpack and blast the shit out of each other on xbox live :) Chances are I miss you and this would make me very happy!
4. Follow me on Twitter and Facebook. Visit my page at
http://digitalteahouse.com and get involved with my social media! That would be so cool.
5. Music and apps. Send me mp3's!! I love music! Gift me silly 1$ apps from Apple for iphone or ipad and I'll gift you right back :) (Ldeglopper@gmail.com)
6. Food. I love food. Food with sugar. Homemade cookies are the best!!! Athla likes ones without chocolate ;) 225 Rim View Dr Apt D Colorado Springs, CO 80919
7. Email Blake and tell him he's an amazing person. bgalvin2710@gmail.com !!!
8. Think good thoughts for
hyperform and
seserakh. They need non-horrible jobs in Charlotte, NC. They are talented, awesome and intelligent people.
9. Athla Dog Toys. Things that are robust and can take a beating - squeekers loved, but often murdered.
10. Commission me to do some art. That would be awesome. :)
