Jumping on the wishlist bandwagon
For anyone interested in what I would like for my birthday, or Christmas:
1. Last year I asked for people to make donations to social justice organizations for my gifts, and I would like to do so again. Here are my top choices for organizations - these are all based on my own knowledge, and are local to me, so don't limit yourself to my suggestions if you know of other worthy causes.
- Communities Against Rape and Abuse, a Seattle-based activist organization working to end violence against marginalized communities
- Cocoon House, a Snohomish County organization which provides social services to homeless and at-risk youth (and where a good friend of mine works)
- Progressive Animal Welfare Society (the Seattle one), where I adopted Kershach, and which does good things for cats
- Solid Ground, a Seattle organization that supports disadvantaged communities with a social justice approach
- Refugee Women's Alliance, a Puget Sound organization that supports refugee and immigrant women and their families
- Real Change, Seattle-based poverty advocacy
Also, if you can let me know that you made a donation, by sending a card or an email, I'd love it.
2. I love fanworks of my D&D characters, like art or fic or figs (like the Nexus fig thatlunapome made for me ^_____^). My current characters are Nexus from ratzeo's game and Danny from casaval's game, though I still (always) love to see things for Gwen (from chasdini's game) and Sae (from irishninja's game).
3. I could use a good kitchen knife (or two). I don't need anything fancy, but I only have one quality knife and sometimes that's a pain.
4. Season Four of Doctor Who on DVD. 8D
5. I am a tea addict and would love gift certificates to feed my Adagio addiction. XD
6. Also, my cat is spoiled and I would love gift certificates to spend at Mud Bay for his supplies.
7. Continuing the gift certificate theme: Amazon is my crack, and I order just about everything from there (books, music, even shoes ...).
8. And if that's not enough gift certificates, I also buy pretty much all my clothes from Macy's.
9. And for the ridiculous: a new computer? Mine is a few years old and keeps popping up with problems. :P
10. And for the really ridiculous: a kotatsu! (This is allniwatorimegami's fault. XD)
To anyone who plans to make use of this list: thank you in advance. :D
By the way, I find other people's lists reeeeaaallly useful when Christmas shopping ... *hint*
