Granted, unfortunately it's the middle of the desert, 100 degrees and the chocolate's melting and covered in sand.

I wish I actually had a piece of writing good enough to submit...

Granted. But you didn't write it.

I wish I had a million wishes.

Granted. You had them. Do you remember what you used them for?

I wish the '00's weren't such a terrible decade for pop music.

granted. suddenly there is a fresh new music explosion with talent popping up everywhere. in fact, your boss is 'discovered' and leaves for stardome, ditching the company and putting you on the unemployment line.

i wish i had a new dictionary. mine is falling apart.

Granted. I'll just use a couple of rolls of duct tape and your dictionary will be as good as new. It might be a bit hard to open, but I guarantee that it will not fall apart.

I wish my cat wouldn't hate me if I got a puppy.

granted. she'll love you for the midnight prey/snack.

I wish I could get another parakeet without worrying about my cats eating it.

Granted. But now your cats have no tails and your parakeet looks fat and bearded.

I wish Culture Club were still together.

Granted. They can all share the same room about rehab.

I wish I could go to the lake tomorrow.

Granted. Lake Tehran is open for swimming, just watch your step on the beach.

I wish I could write my ms and mow my lawn at the same time.

Same Psychosis...different day.
Easier done than said. You are now the proud owner of the new 'Smart Mower' it has an onboard computer with a word processor, wireless connectivity and when you ctrl-shift and hit the arrows on the right side you can guide your mower while looking at the screen in screen display of the lawn in front of you and typing your manuscript at the same time.

Better yer the mower is solar powered, and because it is smart it has memorized the size and shape of all the lawns in your county.

Alas. You hit the wrong programming button so the mower has decided to mow all the lawns in the county at a speed of 75mph and it has locked you into your seat for safety. It won't turn off because it is programmed to save your work and to it, that means not turning off. And the sun is bright and hot, meaning the solar cells are constantly charged.

I wish I could remember the question I wanted to post on the Horror thread.

Granted. You've asked all your Horror writing friends the best way to torture girls named 'Cindy' who don't get you coffee and staples when you ask for them. They've made so many suggestions, you're busy writing them all down when 'Cindy' comes by your desk and asks what you're so busy doing. Then you snapped and attacked her with the staples, and she fought off with paperclips and hot coffee. But you finally iced her.

I wish my teddy bears could talk to me.

Granted. Check your basement. I just bored a large hole in your water line.

I wish I could dance all night.

Granted, but during the last dance your impression of John Travolta causes a riot, people are hurt and you spend the next five years recovering from a serious back injury.

I wish the pottery studio had fired my pots so I could go back and glaze them tommorrow.

Granted. They're fired. And you're fired. Now you have all the time you want to go glaze them, and several dozen doughnuts while you look for a new job.

I wish I had a big pitcher of berry sangria right now.

Granted. But the installers were inept and you are now stapled underneath it.


I wish to be a genius.

Granted. You're SO smart, you've discovered a cure for cancer and the fountain of youth. Now you're surrounded by a bunch of old bittys who want you to marry their grandchildren.

I wish my other sister would show me some respect

Granted. Only the cops finally caught up to you for driving that cement truck, and you're doing LIFE in the state pen.

I wish my cat could speak Swedish.

Granted. She changes her name to "meatball" and hops a boat to Sweden to find other Swedish-speaking cats.

I wish I were a little bit taller. I wish I were a baller.

Granted. You've sprouted up suddenly overnight, an extra 12 inches as a matter of fact. The shock of such sudden growth at your age has affected your mind, however. Now you've started running around town, kicking strange men in the nads. It's gotten to be such a problem, you've been given nicknames by the police such as The Tall Baller.

There's a warrant out for your arrest.

I wish the moon was purple.

Granted, unfortunately it's because it's been inhabited by strange ant-like aliens who are on their way to earth...

I wish hubby would hurry up, get off the PC and take me out for dinner, like he promised.

Granted. You want fries with that?

I wish the ant people would invade, it'd be cool.
