*yawns* Been kinda eerie of doing this meme, because in some ways it's basically like sticking out your hand and going "OMG GIVE ME SOMETHING!11!!" But then it's also not, and I'm bored, and what the hey.
Plus if I do this carefully and think of some good stuff and remember it, I can print it off and give it to my mother.
Meme Guidelines

Step One

Make a post containing your list of 10 holiday wishes. The post can be public, friendslocked, filtered...whatever you're comfortable with.

The wishes can be anything at all, from simple and online-related ("I'd love a specific icon/fic 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.

Make sure you post some version of these guidelines in your LJ, 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.

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.

So... list.
