First things first:

SPACE SHARK!!

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 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 (it'll be public) 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.


1. T-shirts such as this one, this one, and this one

2. Anything from my Amazon.com, Amazon.co.uk, or ThinkGeek.com wishlists

3. Foods I cannot get stateside such as Ketchup flavored chips and Mars Planets

4. New music (links, mixed CDs, whatev)

5. Recipes for main dishes and desserts (I'm just not big on fish)

6. Donations to your charity of choice

7. Christmas fic for any of my fandoms (right now Sherlock would be most appreciated, but SG-1 will never get old, and I'm on a bit of a Merlin kick as well)

8. A job (I don't know why that's #8, lol)

9. King of the Mods hair gel - it's one of the few hair products that smells really great and isn't too heavy/gross

10. Finally, I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday and a great 2011!!

!!!!SPACE SHARK!!!!

I remember hearing about sparkle text no longer working. How are you supposed to show the world just how excited you are now? :(

I'll see if I can find some ketchup chips, but I don't know how they'll survive the mail system without getting crushed.

That would be wonderful if you could. As for how to keep them from being destroyed... bubble wrap maybe? But honestly, I'd even love ketchup flavored crumbs :)
