Christmas Wishlist Meme
This pops up on my f-list every year, and I try to participate each time. I love this idea, and I think it's fun.
Step One
Make a post (public, friends-locked, 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 fun to medium to really big to fandom things. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want. If you wish for real possible things, just 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 friends list (or friends of friends, or just random journals) to see who has posted their list. 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. Once a wish has been granted, it will be crossed off the 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.
1. I'd love art/graphics for my Hawaii Five-0 fics. At AO3 | At LJ
2. Music!! I love music! Any recs, or actual CD's, mp3's, or whatever...
3. Unique shotglasses from all over the world. I collect them, and haven't actually gotten any new ones in a few years. I'm such a slacker!
4. Teddy bears! I collect them as well.
5. Christmas cards and unique postcards. I love getting mail that's not electronic.
6. H50 fics and fic recs. I love h/c and angst...gen and slash. I also enjoy crossovers and AU's as well. I'm pretty open to anything.
7. Links to your wishlists. I'd love to give back if I can.
I'll leave it at that. Let me know if you need my address, and I'll send it to you. I'd rather not post it publicly.

I thiink I can do
I also have some post cards - kind of unique and...um...you know...hubba-hubba? I'd be happy to send some to you. You can give me an 'e' with your addy?
*trots off, bells on elf shoes jingling*
Re: I thiink I can do
How familiar are you with the new Hawaii Five-0? Here are a few of the fics I'd like art for: Ambushed, Pa'ahao, and Hard Habit to Break.
I'd love some cards. Just know that my hubby checks the mail sometimes too, so um... yeah. LOL
Can I just send my addy to the e-mail that's listed on your profile?
Re: I thiink I can do
As for the cards, you tell me how best to send so hubby doesn't open? *G* Although there are two 'regular' cards too *G*
Re: I thiink I can do
Yes, that's the one with him talking with his hands.
Deal!
Well, he won't open any mail if my names on it. I was just worried about postcards. As long as its in an envelope, it's good to go! :D
