More Than Just A Wish List

Loving this.

Have you ever been riding through life, with the breeze in your hair, everything's workin' out as planned, there's no drama in your life, and the drama that does squeeze it's way in, you can oh-so-cool-ly dismiss it with the flick of your wrist. Life's good. Complaint's are as far as the next town over, and you're enjoying every last minute of this wonderful life. 

Next thing you know ... you better put that top up on your convertible, because your cool-as-a-cucumber ride through life is about to get rained on. How do things get so complicated so quickly? Problems are like getting pulled over in the state of New Jersey, you get slapped with one thing, but hold on ... that's not all. Hold on, let me pull out my laundry list ... because you got caught driving with a suspended license (for whatever valid reason that may be), you get arrested, then you get your car impounded, and then you get two, 0r even possibly twelve tickets, wait ... there's more ... drum roll please ... then you get the New Jersey Insurance Surcharge Fee - Paying $100 for each ticket you receive for the next three years. Not to mention, points on your license, on top of going to court/court fees. For all of you non-New Jersey residents, NOW you know why it's so expensive to live here! 

No, this is not my current problem. Actually, this already happened to me, and I'm way over it. That was completely just an analogy. A damn good one, if I may say so myself. I'm just saying, generally speaking. It's always when things are going incredibly, when you're just getting into the groove of all this positive stuff, is when things go all Britney Spears when she shaved her head. What is with that, anyways?

Needless to say, life is still pretty fantastic, for the most part. I'd tell you all about my fantastic findings, but I'm pretty sure that every time I spill the beans to you guys, I completely jinx myself. So, we will patiently wait for the unveiling of good things that have kind of come. Patience children, patience.

I have a small wish list going. I'm sure you want in on it ...

I wish ...

1. that everyday was a Sunday.
2. that we had to work on the weekends, and had the weekdays off.
3. that the shoe always fits, and we never have to actually purchase it, we can just "have it".
4. that nutritional information in foods/beverages didn't count.
5. that everything always smelled good.
6. that puppies never grew up.
7. that the things that are bad for you, are not readily available for you to get your hands on.
8. that I could read minds.
9. that I always had a good joke ready to tell.
10. that I had a middle name.
11. that my best friends were a plastic surgeon, Alexander Wang, and Martha Stewart (assuming she would organize my things and had a gluten free cupcake recipe.)
12. that you could get pulled over and receive awards for doing something good, instead of only getting pulled over and recognized for doing the bad things you get caught doing.
13. that boys could get pregnant too.
