You concentrate on one thing for so long that you forget to eat and starve to death.

I wish I could take off work the rest of this week.

You get the whole week off! Unfortunately, you get a lot more off, since your company went under, taking whatever pension funds of yours it had with it.

I wish I could get enough sleep every night.

Blink 182 have a big raucous rock-star party and accidentally burn your house down.

I wish my husband would take over cleaning all the litter boxes, once a day, forever.

Granted. Unfortunately, your husband inhales too much ammonia fumage and suffers from brain damage, maiking him unable to do the litterbox, causing you to do it again.

I wish it was 1pm tomorrow.

I wish, I wish, I wish I were a fish!

And you do! But by a freak coincidence, so do four million other people, and divvied up amongst you the prize money is negligible.

I wish I could lose weight and get in shape without having to diet or exercise.

Granted! Unfortunately, the woman is rather creeped out by all the longing stares. She builds a fence and files for an order of protection with the police.

I wish my papers would file themselves, neatly and in a way that makes it easy to find the articles I want when I need them.

Your eyes are scooped out with a spoon and pickled.

The Gerbil incident: Granted, but it is now replaced by "The Badger incident"

OSC posting here: Granted, but he is brutally honest about the average poster's intelligence.

Drawing hands: Granted, because all human hands now look like your drawings of them.

Internal Alarm clock: Granted, but it only works while you are licking a 9 V battery [Evil Laugh]

Washington: You are back, but it is either D.C. or state, depending on which one you didn't want.

Panning for Gold: You do, but then you get poisoning from the quicksilver.

I wish my house were clean

You run out of books to read within a few years. All the authors of the world cannot keep pace with your voracious reading appetite. You start hanging out at publishing companies, grabbing the books right off the press and finishing them within minutes.

I wish that I had a room of my own.

Granted. You learn to read and comprehend books super fast. You then break both your hands permanentely and are not able to turn a page in a book.

I wish I could shoot fireballs out of my hands!
