Wishes. The word in itself conjures up images of sheer delight! I know how these things work, I watch television! I only get three! My heart races and my palms begin to sweat! I could wish for world peace, harmony, global contentment or even for the deficit to go down! Wow, such power right at my finger tips! I CAN make a difference! Here goes!

Wish number one: I want the most gorgeous body without an ounce of fat to spare. Don't get me wrong, not too thin, just perfect! Included in this wish is the ability to eat anything I want and never gain an ounce! Just  remaining society's idea of PERFECT!  Along with this wish is a request that any person that ever made fun of my former less than perfect size would balloon to circus lady size!

Wish number two: I wish to live in a paid for five million dollar mansion with all the trimmings! Indoor and outdoor pool ( the new infinity, of course) movie theatre, 6 car garage complete with the most expensive cars wishes can buy. Let us not forget the staff...we need staff! A maid for each member of the family, a driver, a live in doctor (complete with the pharmacy), a gardener, a pool boy ( the hunky kind that provides maintenance of the pool areas as well as application of sun screen products) and let us not forget the on staff psychiatrist, because let's face it my family is nuts!.

Wish number three:  That my ex-husband spend the rest of his days in a 12x12 padded room as a ward of the state. He should spend his days writing letters begging for forgiveness for his unmentionable transgressions. For entertainment value he should be forced to watch "chick flicks" and draw pretty water colored rainbow pictures for his mommy he loves so much. Let's not forget the strobe lights and  Chinese water torture! Don't feel too bad for him, he will have plenty of company with the voices in his head.

Now I know all of this may sound a bit shallow and maybe even cruel, but a girl can dream. Wishes do not come true very often. I am currently testing it.  I am enjoying a triple chocolate fudge cake (the whole thing). I am Google mapping my new address so I can get a bird's eye view  and calling the ex's mommy to see if his head has been removed from her posterior. We shall see.....maybe I should have wished for world peace?
