I dislike the expression "I wish," yet ironically, I use it all the time. In the little conversations that play out in my head, I find myself unconsciously saying "I wish..." multiple times during the course of the day. In an effort to be proactive, I have spent the last week informally keeping track of those wish items, checking diligently for repetition and making notes. Self indulgent as it may be, it denotes things I could in fact change (if I made an effort) or things that I can't control at all, but that I should learn to get over. Don't we all wish that? Here's my top ten list for this week:

1. I wish I were 29 years old again, but with the wisdom, confidence and outright ballsiness I have now.
2. I wish my boobs had stopped growing at B-cups.
3. I wish I were more graceful and coordinated.
4. I wish I didn't over think things that shouldn't be over thought.
5. I wish fried foods had zero calories.
6. I wish I could politely tell long winded people who sequester me in my office and who talk about everything from the weather to their yeast infections to shut up and please leave me alone for awhile because I have so much work to do that I will be here till midnight...and please don't hate me for saying so.
7. I wish I didn't blend. In my heart and mind, I don't.
8. I wish I could spend a week somewhere just laying in the sun.
9. I wish I had children.
10. I wish I were passionately in love. Just because there's nothing like it.

What's on your wish list?
