Granted, but then your sound system gets stolen, so you have nothing to play them on.

I wish exercising was interesting. I don't mind the effort, it's just that it's sooooo boring...

granted. You're being chased by starved tigers.

I wish clothing didn't wear out.

granted but the dinner got so hungry cooking that it ate itself too.

I wish I could clean my bathroom.

granted. When people visit you, they're so impressed with the bathroom, they congregate there.

I wish I'd known at a younger age that I wanted to write.

Granted. But you didn't get to have all the experiences that you're now writing about.You don't have anything to write about.

I wish that I would get an acceptance telephone call from a legitimate publisher, today.

Granted, but you are out when the phone rings, the answering service doesn't work, and you forgot your mobile/cellphone.

I wish that my house was a bit tidier.

Granted. Somebody breaks into your house and steals all your furniture and other possessions. How can it be messy when there's nothing left inside?

Granted. But it's a wish that's so cheesy that it makes you want to puke.

I wish that everybody on the boards here at AW would land a literary contract that honours their knowledge, experience and skills.

Granted, but then everybody became so busy with success that they all forgot to post here and the forum was shut down.

I wish I could meet William Shakespeare in person.

Granted. But on Monday, we get the biggest snowstorm in 20 years.

I wish that on Monday we do not get the biggest snowstorm in 20 years

Granted. But you find out that it's seriously outdated. In the time that it took you to finish off the final draft, a million new developments have transpired.

I wish that I'd get inspired to write today

Granted, but then your computer breaks down, every pen and pencil in the house won't work, you can't find any paper, you are troubled by trivial emergencies, several friends drop in on you, and by the time you get some free time to yourself again .... You've long forgotten what it was you were going to write.

I wish for a basket of organic fruit and nuts.

Granted. For communtiy service you are escorting three complete nut cases around the city so they can get used to being around people, again. The folks at the halfway house were so happy for your help, they've given you a basket of organic fruit.

I wish George Bush would replace Howie Mandel on "Deal or No Deal"

Granted. You have a perfect spiritual and loving visit. Sorry, I couldn't mess this one up.

I wish that I hadn't spent the whole day on AW, instead of writing.

Granted. You spent the whole day surfing for pictures of Donald Trump's hair, instead of writing.

I wish I would eat healthier.

Granted, but all you get to eat is insipid food--boiled, without sugar or salt.

I wish I would be more regular with updating my writing blog.

Granted. You add one word every 17 minutes, day and night.

I wish for world peace and a small bag of peanut M&Ms.
