My wishlist

neaThe rules
- 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 fandom-related ("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 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 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 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.

Because fangirling makes me happy:
a) Write me fics! Please? Especially about Michael/Lincoln or Chuck/Casey, but please let them be in character. If both pairings aren't your cup of tea, just pick something from the interests in my profile. All I want them to have are kisses and an happy end.
b) Make me graphics because I'm an icon!whore (and I'm loud and proud about it *ggg*) Especially Michael/Lincoln ones from the fourth season of Prison Break, because I can't find any. Headers, icons, banners, I want them, please! Of course 100 % Tancredi-free, please, because she is dead (at least in my book
c) Make me a vid! For Michael/Lincoln, of course. I don't care if it's "Anywhere" from Evanescence or "It's been a while" from Staind or any other song that you think fits them. Maybe the playlist I made for them a while ago could be helpful as well
d) Give me more icon space!
e) Write me letters/cards and I promise to write you back. If you need my address: drop me a line via PM. If I know you, you'll get it.
