Christmas thing...

General
I've seen a lot of folks put one up, and for some reason, it made me want to toss out my own.

STEP ONE
# Make a post to your journal. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and fandom-related ("I'd love a christmas 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) can get in touch with you. Your home address is not required!
# Make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your journal, or link to this post (it'll be public) so that the holiday joy will spread.
STEP TWO
# Surf around your friends list (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 one person'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 guarantees with this project, and no strings attached. Just... wish, and it might come true. Give and you might receive. You'll have the joy of knowing you made someone's holiday special.
Material things aren't super-important to me, really; but... here goes ^^
My list:
1. To know my friends and family are safe and doing well. (Cheezy, I know, but very true.)
2. A new/better/more functional Trailer/RV (XD A guy can dream X3)
3. To meet more good friends (a huge wish; I'm blessed with the people I do know ^^ )
4. Someone who can sculpt 3D Models to 'sponsor' me, so I can get some practice in. I've got ideas burning in my brain that I WANT to work on... but have no 'actors'. (I'll advertise the shizz outta the sponsor, Itelluwhut.)
5. A better job (preferably one involving my Degree in Computer Applications X3)
6. To be less stressed. (Which would solve SO much!)
7. Something from my 'Dream Commission list' would be massively awesome...
8. A certain kind of 'special funteims' (but Time & Circumstance, I fear, will forever shelf this wish. In all honesty, just being able to have that level of closeness and trust again would be more than enough... so I stop feeling like a selfish jerk all the time...)
9. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/15259304/ (She's totally adorbs; what?! >.>)
10. To feel like I'm not just treading water in a Tar Pit.... (yeah...)
