holiday wish list 2011
Dec. 1st, 2011 08:34 pmStep One:
Make an LJ post. It can be public or friends only, whatever you’re most comfortable with. The post should contain your list of ten holiday wishes, and these wishes can be anything - from simple (a fan fiction written about your favorite pairing), to medium (a DVD you want), to really extravagant (a brand new laptop or car).
Just make sure these are wishes for things you really truly want.
Step Two:
Skim through your friends list and see who has posted their own wish lists. Then - and this is the most important part - if you find a wish you can grant, and it’s in your heart to do so, make sure that person’s wish comes true.
Sometimes a person’s trash is another person’s treasure. If you have a leather jacket you don’t want or a gift certificate you’re never going to use, give it to someone who wants it.
Step Three:
Post this wish list any time after November 1st. Then repost it two weeks before Christmas.
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 fairy - 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.
1. Gift cards in any amount to Walmart, Kroger or BP.
2. Recipes for low-fat, easy-to-fix foods. Main dishes, side dishes, any kind.
3. Red Sedona Dinnerware Set or this dinnerware set, in green.
4. Anything off my Amazon Wishlist.
5. A customized LJ layout.
6. A piece of art or a story done just for me. Sam/Dean or Jared/Jensen. Sexy, loving, kinky, angsty, whatever. Just with a happy ending (and preferably top!Sam or top!Jared).
7. A pic-spam of Sam (or Jared) :)
8. Anything from my Kindle Wish List.
9. Prayers/good vibes/positive thoughts that 2012 will be a better year -- not just for me, but for everyone.
10. Tell me how you got into fandom, or how we met, or something like that.
My address, in case it's needed for anything: Kim Gasper, 1011-D David Court, Elizabethtown KY 42701

Date: 2011-12-03 01:02 am (UTC)I got into SPN fandom when a friend of mine, who i met through the Percy Jackson fandom, recommended i see it so she could talk to someone about how gorgeous the boys are and how real they cry and how they should be together even though they are brothers, etc. I read a fic, I can't remember what it was called, and it had Sam proposing to Dean in what I see now was kind of OOC, but still really sweet and adorable (he just sort of tells Dean that he loves him and gives him a ring while they're in the impala lol). I remember thinking oh that's so sweet. I still have no idea what's going on. Then i accidently caught the end of an episode from season 5 (the one where Dean shoots Lucifer with the Colt) and im like WTH is going on? I dont understand, told my friend i wasn't interested in the show but thanks for recommending it... Flash forward a couple months and I finally catch an early episode, Bloody Mary actually, and I watched it from about the beginning to the end thinking at first, hey ill give it one more shot, and by the end HOLY SHIT IS THERE ANOTHER ONE AFTER THIS OMFG???? And then everyday after that I would watch it in the morning on TNT and here I am today :D totally obssessed with no hope for recovering lol
And we met a long while ago actually, not in person obviously, but on here almost a year ago (which reminds me- it's almost my one year anniversery on here :DDD) when I commented on one of your fics just after I got an LJ and had become obssessed with SPN (that obssession is actually WHY I got an LJ haha- some people's journals are restricted to LJ users only and I was so starved for fic lol so i got one XD). It was a wincest fic (because I hadn't yet understood the whole "J2" pairing and i had no idea who Jared and Jensen were other than that they played Sam and Dean respectively) and I cant remember which one it was but i remember flailing over it like a loon and I fell out of my chair because I sort of stood up a little and went to sit back down but the chair had spun a little and i only got like part of my tush in the seat and slipped off haha... and then I read through the rest of your Sam/Dean fic (and sorry if i didnt exactly comment as religiously as I would have liked, i was pretty shy about commenting at first lol btw your stories are awesome in case you didnt know and I love all your Jared pic spam XD)... lol And then when i finally got around to J2 I read all that too.
Sorry about all those parenthesis lol XD And thank you :) *hugs back*

Boil 1/2 of 1 lb package of linguine as directed.
Brown 1 lb skinless, boneless chicken breast halves in a large nonstick skillet generously coated with vegetable spray.
Add 1/4 c. lemon juice, 1/4 c. water, 1 tbl chicken flavor bouillion granules, 1 ½ tsp minced garlic and 1 tsp grated lemon rind. Simmer until chicken is tender.
Garnish with grated Parmesan if desired.
And I'll definitely put you on my prayer list for 2012. Here is the affirmation that I will say for you: Prosperity, health, and harmony dwell with Kim now. :-)

Date: 2011-12-03 03:10 am (UTC)Let's see. We met because of fandom and even though we've never been the type to constantly email or comment, we've been close in my opinion. You're someone who I read every post from and even though I don't comment often (lack of time), I always read. I loved coming to spend some time with you and give you a little respite from thinking about your divorce. I wish I could have done more for you over the years since then.

Date: 2011-12-03 11:44 pm (UTC)Man, I think you were just starting college when we met; heck, you might've been finishing up high school, I'm not sure. I've been on LJ nearly a decade now, and I know you were one of the first people I got to know in popslash.
I agree with the close opinion :) I've counted you as a good friend for a very long time, now, and hopefully for many years yet to come :)
(Also? You've done plenty, just by being part of my support system.)

Date: 2011-12-03 05:22 am (UTC)Ok, here's how we met, the short version: I discovered your popslash 3 or 4 years ago at the height of my nsync obsession. I discovered you were as into Chris/JC as I was. It was the best possible kind of kismet - the filthy, slashy kind. For a long time I would pop over here every so often, rarely commenting because I'm creepy that way, til I finally got my act together and added you. Then, later, we bonded over VA stuff - a lousy thing to bond over, yeah, but better than nothing I guess!
And yes, I'm choosing to believe that 2012 WILL be an all-around better year for everyone. Maybe if I say it out loud often enough I can make it happen through sheer force of will.
