holiday stuff

[cornerofmadness]

here's that holiday post everyone does every year....

STEP ONE

Make a post (public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with) to your LJ. (This year, it's popular to have it listed on your info page.) The post should contain your list of 10 holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fun ("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 possible things, 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 so that the holiday joy will spread.

STEP TWO

Surf around your friendslist (or friends' friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. (That's why this year we suggest you list 'wish list' under your interests so folks may search.) 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. Once a wish has been granted, it will be crossed off my list.

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.




Real simple here. I want nothing tangible except of course cards if you care to send them. So what's on my list? If you'd like to write me a story, drabbles, do some icons or for those really talented few, videos.... of who you ask? Let's See

1. Buffy/Angel verses - I like Giles/Jenny, Giles historical, Fanged Four, Buffy/Angel, ensemble gen fic, have a fondness for old skool, and of course Connor. Oh and I like Connor/Dawn, Connor/Faith and Spike/Dawn

2. Fullmetal Alchemist - gen fic, Ed/Winry, Roy/Riza, Roy/Maes, Maes/Gracia, Roy/Riza/Maes/Gracia, Al/Paninya, Al/Elicia (age her up please), Kimbley (because oooo sexy evil)

3. Fruits Basket - gen fic, Haru or Kyo centric, ship wise...Ayame/Shigure/Hatori

4. Bleach - gen fic, I especially like Ichigo, Rukia and Ishida.

5. D. Gray-Man - just getting into this so...anything. Love Koumi Lee.

And if you want a card from ME just give me your addy. I'm screening comments of course. And if you a) do NOT have my Pennsylvania address or b) have my mother's name to put a c/o on it (because the new postal worker doesn't get it when i forward my mail there when i come home for long stretches!!). I'll be back in PA by the time most of us get our cards out.
