So that worked out well.
Nov. 14th, 2010 08:14 pmWas supposed to spend the day writing, instead spent most of it cleaning my house. Of course, I did it because the mess was distracting me and now I'm not fixated on what else I could be doing instead of writing, but still.
That said, I found the holiday meme, so what the hell, why not?

THE HOLIDAY WISH LIST MEME
1. Make a post to your LJ. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes. The wishes can be anything at all, from something simple and fandom-related to something really big. The important thing is, make sure these wishes are things you really, truly want.
2. Surf around your friends list 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. 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.
3. 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.
( Two of these you already know, obviously, but still. )

I know the list probably reads a bit twee, all things considered, but I really don't want anything blatantly superficial for myself other than a new netbook, and I don't really need one so much as one would come in handy for school. And as for wanting to be published ... well, hell, that's always my Christmas wish. And my birthday wish, and my New Year's wish, and my Arbor Day wish. It's that kind of wish.
As for the rest ... well, if I were going to be selfish about the whole thing, I'm just at a point in my life where I really don't care how dippy and bleeding-heart it may make me look to cynical internet fuckwits if I get starry-eyed about people trying to make the world a better place, and if the world is a better place my Lexapro-popping ass would be a lot less likely to freak out every so often.
But, yeah. Now you guys make wish lists. :D
