I got you beat. I’m one year too young, not divorced (but things may be headed that way - long story), I have 2 cats and if I’m lucky, I’ll get to keep the house.

Yeah, but are you menopausal?

I asked Satan for world domination, a red Ferrari, and a curvacious bitch-goddess in mink.

Ah. Santa. I’m Jewish. Never mind.

It’s funny; before I couldn’t think of anything I wanted, but now I do. This thread inspired me.

A year’s worth of free booze.

custom made dress shoes. They are less than $100 here, I’ve never done it, and I need new shoes…

Girlfriend and world peace. Plus I’d like some of my hair back, please. Oh hell; just give me back the body and health I had ten years ago and we can forget the world peace thing.

[QUOTE=Beware of Doug]  
I was gonna ask for my dream woman, like every year, but that got trite. So I asked for a 43 year old menopausal divorcée who loves cats and big band music and owns her own house.  
[/QUOTE]

Hey, this is nearly me, except the menopausal part I’m just nuts 5 days of the month, not 30. and the tiny issue of my husband and all that. But, I’m sure during those 5 days, he’d be happy to wife share. The sex would be the same for both of you! zilch. I can nag you instead of him! Just call me Polly Andry!  
Oh, I like cats and dig big band. and Pena colada’s and getting caught in the rain…  
BOT, I would really like Santa to pay our winter tax bill or refund all the repair money this year for a new engine for the truck, a new crown for my cracked one and that pesky pressure gauge thingie for our well that is rather important if I want something so simple as water in our house. I’m such a Drama Queen.

Failing that, I’d love to see him wave his magic over the soulless place I’ve been working at for 8 weeks and make the management see its workers as humans and not concentration campers. The other workers are wunderbar. It’s Corporate and the Upper Managers that need to DIAF.

Money.

And a little more money.

And maybe a buck or two more so we can pay the rent next month.
