perididdleThey stole my squishy blanket.
I know it's the least of everyone's problems (*note to Nicole, Brendan and the gang in paragraph below*) but I felt the need to protest my blanket being stolen for guests when I'm the one sleeping on the couch. NOT cool.
*I'm bad at 'my thoughts are with you' things because I end up going Yoda on everyone and that seems to offend people, but really, I'm not very oriented with your family but I know it's an amazing one and seeing/hearing everyone be worried, it makes me wanna do something. Though, I guess the only thing I can actually do is say, well, my thoughts and wishes are all being sent your way, and I really really hope things get a lot better soon. *Hugs*
And now I'm gonna try to spread some holiday cheer by playing some fun meme-ish thing.
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 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 (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.
Sounds all simple and fun and easy enough.
10) My own theme song
9) FRIENDS DVD's, seasons 5-10 (Or just 9? 8? When do these things come OUT, anyways...)
8) Fanfiction
7) Invader Zim DVDs
6) A KITTEN
5) Drawings of my characters
4) Idina Menzel or Joss Whedon autograph
3) My own hunter-jumper horsie
2) Nice tickets to Hairspray or Avenue Q, Jan 7-8/Good tickets to Wicked, Jan 9
1) Meet Joss Whedon or Idina Menzel
I have the most self-involved/impossible wishlist EVER. I tried to put it in order, but then I got bored. *Nod*
Um...um...I don't think I have anything else to say. Except 'And it's beginning to snow!' 'Cept it isn't. It stopped snowing around 4:30. But, yeah, 4-5 inches. So that means I have sopping wet muses that decided snowball fights were the only way to end an argument. Twice. Very wet puppies that thought snow was the COOLEST THING EVER, and therefore decided they should dive into it every few minutes. A Cattymuse that has fallen out of a chair three times today, and is rather freezing cold because she decided that when Luke arrived she would run and JUMP and tackle him into the snow, which started a wrestling fight that was rather amusing, considering she's really short and all she could do was squirm away and run until he caught her again. So she, of course, planted her soaked and chattering self into Sev's lap because she couldn't move her legs enough to walk up the stairs to find new clothes. And, um, cold horses that moved into the basement because it's heated. And a partridge in a pear tree. (Or, in the RENT version, 'And one pasta with meatless balllllssss.
And we have a Lilah. How did THAT happen, anyways?
