I wish I turn the clock back to October so I could warn Past Raquel NOT to buy the Blackberry Tour. "Girl, you don't need all them gadgets and options. Just buy a regular phone and get the hell out the sto'!!"
I wish I had a more inviting + appealing apartment. Actually, no, I wish I could AFFORD a more inviting + appealing apartment. As it stands, I'm embarrassed to have people over here. Good thing my family loves to visit me despite my crappy abode!
I wish I had the power to smite people who litter and then complain about how dirty the City is. Bitch! Did you or did you NOT just toss your candy wrapper in the street?!
I wish I could erase people from my memories, like in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. A lot of you mofos would be soooooooo added to the "forget them hos" list!
I wish this economy would turn around and print magazines would start thriving again and I could get a bushel of new clients, so that I can avoid being chained to a desk this fall. Me + office work just aren't BFFs anymore.
I wish Buffalo wings were healthy and promoted weight loss. Actually, it doesn't matter. I will eat them regardless. That and fries. And Haagen Dazs. And anything my mom cooks.
I wish I could jump into movies like West Side Story or Carlito's Way and Rosemary's Baby and warn people about all manner of shit: "Chino didn't really kill Maria!! Don't be stupid, Tony!" "Pachanga is a traitor, dude, Do NOT let him know where you're going!!" "Chiiiillllddddd, don't trust your neighbors! They're Devil Worshippers and they PLOTTIN!"
I wish SOMEONE *cough*YOU*cough* would buy me a new mattress. One of those pillow top ones that feel like you're sleeping on a stack of cotton balls. Aaaaahhhhh, I'd never ever ever get out of bed ever...
I wish I could move to DR for six months. That's actually a major goal of mine. I want to live there for six whole months, intern at my aunt's PR firm, improve my Spanish, learn more about my ancestry right from the horse's mouth and watch a REAL beisbol game.
I wish Prince Charming were real, except not white, blonde, etc. I want him to be chocolatey. But he should still swoop in on a gallant horse and make all my troubles disappear.
*smooches...wishing on a star every night*
----------
oh wait, that's not a star...that's a plane departing from JFK, without me, to exotic places that I will never see...

Girl, I hear you... On a lot of those counts... Though in my case DR would be Spain... And scratch the Prince Charming bit.. I AM wifey's Prince Charming..
*lifts glass*
May all of your wishes come true...
As you ramble through life, whatever be your goal,
Keep your eye upon the doughnut, and not upon the hole.
Here's to being single…
Drinking doubles…
And seeing triple!
Prince Charming can't be chocolatey - ain't no black dude riding a horse.
Hate to tell you this, but print magazines are dying, whether the economy turns around or not. The internet is the future of publishing, so - get on that train.
I was just thinking -
Why don't you go to DR for 6 months. I mean, really? Anyway..I think you can find a way to have your mom and C watch K & N for a few months (or you could take them with you - even better). That would be awesome! Then they could learn soke spanish too.
I think you should really do it.
@ricardo- those toasts were...ummm...yeah... *walks away*
@irene- STOP raining on my wish parade!!!
and yeah I thought about DR but figured it was too selfish, esp given that K is in such a highly competitive school. I'll just aim for a shorter amount of time during the summer where it won't interfere with their schooling.
Girl go on and wish! Those wishes are the roadmap to your goals and eventually accomplishments.
Wish on chick, wish on. I don't have any wishes, goals or dreams. I am officially sucked dry. Maybe I can dream up some wishes if I slept more. *shrug*
I'm mad Irene thinks Prince Charming can't be chocolately because he wouldn't ride a horse. The CHOCOLATELY Prince Charming would stroll up in an Escalade, gurl ... with rims and dubs and a BOOMIN' system playing Love Jones.
