Odd Wishes.

These are the kinds of wishes that roll around in one's bedside table's drawer.

• I wish I had a vanilla milkshake and a giant Pottery Barn Teen catalog.
• I wish I were better at spellings. It's gotten worse in the last couple of years.
• I wish that I could get back to a healthier weight and that my efforts would actually have an impact.
• I wish I were eating a nutty brownie and vanilla ice cream with my dad.
• Alternative: I wish I were eating Snickers pie from Cooker with my dad.
• I wish I could still dance a little just to show it off.
• I wish my fingernails wouldn't grow past a certain point. 
• I wish I were eating pastry with warm brie and honey outside the Blue Moon Cafe with my mom.
• I wish I had learned to play the piano.
• I wish my hair wouldn't frizz.
• I wish I had a lighter version of my swimming obsession back.
• I wish I could have individual pockets in my savings account--gifts, summer, travel...
• I wish Sunset Boulevard and Starlight Express would tour now.
