What's going on here? (Behind a cut for size, not squeamishness, I promise. Unless you have an issue with feet or bruises.)

( Is my toe broken? )

I randomly noticed that was there last night when I took off my fuzzy slippers to go to bed. No idea how it got there or when. Doesn't hurt. I'm going to ignore it, but I'm stumped.

In your own space, create a list of at least three fannish things you'd love to receive, something you've wanted but were afraid to ask for - a fannish wish-list of sorts. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your wish-list if you feel comfortable doing so. Maybe someone will grant a wish. Check out other people's posts. Maybe you will grant a wish. If any wishes are granted, we'd love it if you link them to this post.

Hmm. This is hard for me, too; as kouredios says, it's hard to know what I want (right now I'm having a day of "I want my father back, you sonofabitch", but that's not actually a fannish request, even though it's a fannish quote) and I, too, always have a hard time coming up with requests for Yuletide. But let's try this. I (would) love:

• stories written for me.
  
• art for stories I have written.
  
• handknit stuff made by fans.

Fun and pretty and cozy. What's not to love? :-)
