This is my first year doing this, yay! I'm too broke to mail anything out even if I could buy it, but I will try to grant wishes of the non-monetary variety. (Fics abd fanart, mostly...I'm not a master with icons either.)

Okay, so here is my list:

1. Games for the old NES system. Someone is being nice enough to give me one, but I won't be able to get any games to go with it.

2. Ribbon/Dress Trimming/Buttons (They always come in handy for crafts and things.)

3. Gothic/medieval/pirate stuff

4. Non-perishable food (I know this is an odd one, but if anyone knows how to make hard-tack that would really come in handy.)

5. Funky socks/boxers. All my socks are black boot socks leftover from the navy and full of holes, and I haven't been able to get new ones. (Heh, oh I bet I'm sounding pretty ghetto at the moment.)

6. Anything from Sherlock Holmes, Labyrinth, Homestar Runner or Escaflowne (Fanart, icons, memorabilia.)

7. Organizational/School supplies

8. Christmas cards

9. Philosophy. Write and tell me about your philosophies, your religion, whatever. I love learning about how other people think and how they think life should be lived.

10. Umm...I don't know what else to put...I'd say a sewing machine that actually works.

Edit to add: It's an NES, not Super NES. x_x I'm sorry.

I will send you a letter (soon, hopefully, if not immediately, in which perhaps I will enclose the basic framework of my spiritual philosophy.

And maybe socks. Because socks effing ROCK. I <3 socks. (What kind of sock person are you? Girlsocks? Boysocks? Neither? Low-ankle-knee-thigh? Toesocks?)

[glitter-man.livejournal.com]

^_^! Yay, a letter and philosophy!

I don't like toe-socks as they never stay in place, and I like my ankle to be covered up, but other than that, all socks are pretty cool.
^^ Socks are a happy squishy part of life!

I saved your list to my memories, as I know I have a few SNES games in a box. I'll dig them up and make sure they work before I send them off.

[glitter-man.livejournal.com]

Oh, cool! Heh. I wasn't actually expecting anyone to have any to send. That's ubercool. ^^

[glitter-man.livejournal.com]

I found out from my friend that it's an NES, not SNES, though she has an SNES and is having a really hard time finding games. So if you still want to send them, I could send them on to her.

I can grant a few of those. ^__^ I'll let them be a surprise :P

[glitter-man.livejournal.com]

Eeeh!! ^^ I love surprises!

A snippet of philosophy...

[delfeus.livejournal.com]

I believe that religion and other beliefs should be a personal thing; we all should contemplate what we believe in and constantly renew our viewpoints. I don't believe in organized religion because it tries to make people think in one way and go by strict rules; I believe that we all should find the beliefs that are right for us and no one else has a right to tell us what to believe in. If someone wishes to believe in invisible pink elephants, they have every right to do so; I may not share their belief, but I can't say that they are wrong, either. Their truth is as good as mine and as no human being can understand the world well enough to decipher what the Truths are, I am quite happy with people having their own separate truths... as long as they don't try to brainwash others into thinking their way. Conversation and contemplation is all for good; the only way to learn and develop is to always question our beliefs, and hearing about the way other people think helps in that. However, I do not approve of people trying to force their beliefs on others; that is another reason why I dislike organized religion - it usually seems to be a disease that makes the people infected want to spead it unto others.

Ahhh...That reminds me of something one of my social studies teachers said awhile back. They said that freedom of religion meant you could dress in hula skirts and bright orange tops made of sequins while covering yourself in barbeque sauce as part of a ritual, and that had to be respected as your belief.


^_^ Thank you very much!

[delfeus.livejournal.com]

Heh! I like that. XD It's very true.

Who's that in your icon?

Re: A snippet of philosophy...

[glitter-man.livejournal.com]

That would be David Bowie Folken from the Escaflowne movie.

I'll grant you a wish and let it be a surprise. :)
