Christmas Wish List

sailorhathorSaw it on lots of journals.
Step One:
- Make an LJ post, public or locked. The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. These wishes can be anything, from simple and fandom-related (a fic written about your favorite pairing), to medium (a DVD you want), to really extravagant (a brand new car). Just make sure these are wishes for things you really, truly want.
- If you wish for real life things, like a DVD or CD, make sure you include some sort of contact information in your post. It can be your address or your email address as long as Santa (or one of his elves) can somehow get in touch with you. ;)
- Make sure you post a version of these guidelines in your LJ, because it's important that the holiday joy will spread.
Step Two:
- Skim through your friend's list (or the brand new friends of friend's list, or random journals) to see who has posted their list. Now is the most important part: if you find a wish you can grant, and it's in your heart to do so, make that person's wish come true. Sometimes your trash is another person's treasure! If you have a leather jacket you don't want or a gift certificate you won't use - or you even know where you could get someone's dream purebred Basset Hound for free - give it to someone who wants it.
Step Three:
- Post this, in your LJ, any time after November 1st. Then repost it two weeks before Christmas.
Step Four:
- You don't need to spend money on these wishes to make them come true. Only spend money if 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. It's to spread the joy. Gifts can be made anonymously or not. It's all up to you. :)
- There are no rules for this project, nor are their any guarantees or any strings attached. Just wish! *saves you from me singing "When You Wish Upon a Star* Your wish might come true! And give if you can. You'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday a special one. :)
My Holiday Wish List:
1. Paid LJ time
2. Box of petit fours
3. MONEY
4. Gift cards to Albertsons or Kroger
5. Chocolate, chocolate and peanut butter candy, no nuts, no cherries
6. Any of the stories I'm asking for for Yuletide (first post on my journal).
7. Belgian chocolate cookies
8. Supernatural season 3 on DVD
9. Thoughtful comments on any of my stories.
10. Manips of my favorite pairings in romantic positions.
I'm not comfortable putting my address here so if you need it, you can ask for it: Sailorhathor@aol.com
Some of you guys are going to the various Supernatural conventions next year. I wish I could afford at least one, but seriously, are the best tickets really $500? Holy... those are call-girl prices. Seriously, if I'm going to pay $500 to spend a little time with someone, there had better be some sex involved. Even celebrities. The spirit of my tightwad father just did this in my head: "$500?!?! O_o" Have fun! :D
