Due to Unfortunate and Unforeseen Circumstances, this journal is now Strictly Friends Only.
Comments to this post are screened, but if you leave a reply with details as to how I know you etc, I will consider adding your journal.
Note: Existing journals will remain friended, because you all rock so very much.
Note: This is a reference list which I intend to keep updated, primarily for my own use, but also other people who might possibly feel like giving me gifts for any particular reason - or no reason at all. It is not strictly speaking a list asking for things. Consider it inspiration.
