Christmas Wishlist thingy

Copied from the adorable Felix the Pink Mew
Step One
Make a post. 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 an 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 to 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 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.
My List:
1) The perfect new job involving creativity, art, and/or writing. Must pay at least what I'm making now, with benefits. Before Feb 1, please!
2) IceKat gift art.
3) More tattoo clients (local, of course!)
4) Immigration papers for my spouse, or the cash to make it happen.
5) Website clients for easy projects. lol
6) Commissioners. Lots.
7) Someone to help me learn Flash.
8) Gift Certificate for Vista Print, Indigo, Amazon or some cool online store.
9) Something leopardprint.
10) Images of Bast and Maahes (the Egyptian deities)
PM me if you need further contact information to like... send me a check for tons of money or something. lol ;)
