The corrupted wish game

[Maryd.]

Oh, I do that too. Maybe we have that desease... Oh what's it called? You know the compulsive desease... I can't remember the name of it.

[Henry P]

OCD? No. They can't bear a mess. I can.

[Maryd.]

Oh me too. I love a mess. It shows that one is alive. Try tell that to 'you know who'

[Henry P]

As long as I know where things are, it's not a mess

[Maryd.]

That's right. Only you need to know. Not anyone else. They shouldn't be going through your things anyway. So there!

[Henry P]

but some people do. It gives them a sense of superiority when they can order other people's things

[Maryd.]

Tell them where to go!

[Henry P]

i will

[Maryd.]

Me too!

[Henry P]

it'll make us feel more confident

[Maryd.]

I'm sick of being told what to do!

[Henry P]

That's the spirit!

[Maryd.]

I'd shoot them but that's against the law. Plus most of them a family... I'm not into killing family.

[Henry P]

just shoot the selfish childless ones

[Maryd.]

Yes... Good idea. Hahaha... Aren't we naughty

[Henry P]

only in our dreams

[Maryd.]

Yep... And nothing is ever going to change.

[Henry P]

it might

[Maryd.]

Nope... I know it won't

[Henry P]

don't be so sure

[Maryd.]

Ha... Sorry babe, I know.

[Henry P]

i wish Maryd could be here in person

[Maryd.]

No you don't... You're all tallk.

[Henry P]

yes, I do

[Maryd.]

I wish I could tell a scam when I saw one.

[Henry P]

suspect everyone, then when you're wrong, things are fine, but if you're right, then feel very clever

[Maryd.]

I wish I was more alert to such scammers

[Henry P]

Think through people's motives and you'll have a chance of guessingwho might be up to no good

[Maryd.]

I wish I was living on a deserted island.

[Henry P]

With all mod cons?

[Maryd.]

No, nothing modern.. Just toughing it out. Sick of all this technology and bulls....

[Henry P]

You mean Robinson Crusoe survival? I'm too old

[Maryd.]

You'll survive. He did.

[Henry P]

only in the book

[Maryd.]

Please. That is how man made it here today. Why do you need technology? Why do you need modern gear?

[Henry P]

to make life easier. we must make progress

[Maryd.]

Progress, don't you find this modern life is like virtual reality?

[Henry P]

No. We must use our brains to make things easier for ourselves and our descendants

[Maryd.]

Poor things... No future at all.

[Henry P]

I'm not so pessimistic. They'll manage

[Maryd.]

We'll see.

[Henry P]

They'll cope because they have to

[Maryd.]

I wish I didn't feel so sore.

[Henry P]

rest and recover

[Maryd.]

No rest for the wicked...

[Henry P]

I wish people would say what they mean

[Maryd.]

Wish granted but it will be exactly what they mean.

I wish for three wishes.

[Henry P]

what would they be, my dear?

[Maryd.]

I'm too afraid to say.

[Henry P]

ah, you could tell me

[Maryd.]

Nope... Don't want to burden you anymore...

[Henry P]

Go on, my dear.

[Maryd.]

No, it's too depressing and I am sure you have your own problems to deal with...

[Henry P]

go on...

[Maryd.]

I wish time would stand still

[Henry P]

I've wished for that too

[Maryd.]

Shame it didn't work

[Henry P]

No, it didn't

[Maryd.]

Pity... Maybe it could have stood still whilst you looked like that photo... You would have a beautiful actress as your wife too.

[Henry P]

Perhaps...

[Maryd.]

Yes... So how far fetched, does that sound.

[Henry P]

I wish I knew what other people thought

[Maryd.]

Wish granted...

[Henry P]

I wish I didn't feel stress

[Maryd.]

You and me both sweetheart...

[Henry P]

i wish I didn't get so tired

[Maryd.]

Aww, poor dear... Go to sleep.

[Henry P]

I'm good for another half hour

[Maryd.]

Really... Are you waiting for something?

[Henry P]

I'm watching a programme on TV about the gospels which were left out of the Bible

[Maryd.]

You're watching something religious... How odd?

[Henry P]

no, it was a very fascinating guess by an Anglican Tv priest as to why some early gospels weren't included in what we now know as the New testament

[Maryd.]

Religion, politics, sex... It's all the same... Nothing ever changes, they all contradict each other. This is why I hate them all so much.

[Henry P]

they're not easy to understand, which is why they're interesting

[Maryd.]

Well, I don't find them interesting... I find them a reason to fight and ruin mankind.

[Henry P]

they've certainly caused suffering

[Maryd.]

Yes... And I have no further comment, because it will never change. The will always cause suffering... Even after our children's children are dead and buried.

[Henry P]

You're right

[Maryd.]

Finally I am right about something.

[Henry P]

you're right about a lot of things

[Maryd.]

Not everything... So it seems.

[Henry P]

I wish I was more patient

[Maryd.]

Wish granted... Because I would love to be more patient too.

[Henry P]

but sometimes I think I'm right in being impatient

[Maryd.]

Will you make up your mind... Henry, your stressing me out here...

[Henry P]

sorry

[Maryd.]

Aww. That's alright... Trying to keep me on my toes, hey?

[Henry P]

no, just undecided

[Maryd.]

Well hurry up and make up your mind... Mwah.

[Henry P]

I'll think about it

[Maryd.]

Waiting... Waiting.... Waiting... Waiting...........

[Henry P]

I'll tell you next year

[Maryd.]

Next year... I am impatient... Can't wait until next year.... I'm greedy... Now!

[Henry P]

I'll tell you on your birthday

[Maryd.]

Oh no, that's such a long way away... Now... Dear please?

[Henry P]

I can't remember what I'm deciding

[Maryd.]

Well I have had too many wines... Do you expect me to remember what you are deciding.?

[Henry P]

I'm glad you're cheerful today, though

[Maryd.]

I have to be, or I will go mad with this sh_t life.

[Henry P]

now now, don't go miserable again

[Maryd.]

No... I won't... I promise... But it's.... Never mind.

[Henry P]

i prefer to see the cheerful Maryd

[Maryd.]

Maybe one day... She'll return.

[Henry P]

she has today

[Maryd.]

No, darl, that's the alcohol...

[Henry P]

I wish I could wake up refreshed for once

[Maryd.]

Wish granted. That's it.

[Henry P]

i wish there were more hours in a day

[Maryd.]

Granted, but for every hour, you gain another wrinkle.

I wish I can drink as much as I like and not get a hangover.

[Henry P]

try water

[Maryd.]

I heard it's good. They say if you drink 2 glass before bed, you won't get a hangover in the morning. Should try it next time. Or maybe I shouldn't have a next time.

[Henry P]

go easy on it, my dear

[Maryd.]

No, I have stopped for a long time now... Weeks, or even forever.

[Henry P]

don't fall off the wagon

[Maryd.]

No, no. Last night put me right off. I have felt bad before, but last night was a bad night.

[Henry P]

we live and learn

[Maryd.]

Yes sir. Someone tried to encourage me tonight. No, I wasn't enticed.

[Henry P]

good girl

[Maryd.]

I still haven't had a drink... Hey, I feel good.

[Henry P]

Stay on the wagon, my dear

[Maryd.]

I am... I'm a good girl... Mwah.

[Henry P]

are you not asleep yet?

[Maryd.]

I'm awake now.

[Henry P]

I wish Maryd got more sleep

[Maryd.]

I sleep when I need it. But thanks for your concern

[Henry P]

I wish the summer had had been warmer

[Maryd.]

I wish the winter hadn't been so cold this year.

[Henry P]

i suspect your winter wasn't much cooler than our late summer

[Maryd.]

This I believe was one of the coldest winters we've had.

[Henry P]

Didn't it snow in Tasmania?

[Maryd.]

I hear it does in the mountain area, but not the city... I believe.

[Henry P]

I like a bit of snow provided we can still get where we need to go

[Maryd.]

I would love to see a bit of snow... Just a bit.

[Henry P]

Head for the Snowy mountains. They're in Victoria , aren't they? Mount Kosciuszko, named after a Pole

[Maryd.]

Well hubby wanted to take us this year, but finances became an issue. Maybe next year.

[Henry P]

Have you got the house money yet?

[Maryd.]

Yes, last week... It's locked away so we can't touch it until it's time to book our holidays for overseas... Good yea?

[Henry P]

So it's in an account to get more interest? Good idea

[Maryd.]

And can't be taken out until a set date.

[Henry P]

I've got some savings like that

[Maryd.]

It's better, it stops uneccessary spending.

[Henry P]

Yes, but you can lose money if you need to withdraw in an emergency

[Maryd.]

We did keep a small amount in our savings account, just for large bills or broken down washing machines.

[Henry P]

I do that

[Maryd.]

Well you have too, otherwise you lose money.

[Henry P]

that's right

[Maryd.]

I wish I was rich and didn't have to worry about money

[Henry P]

don't we all?

[Maryd.]

I wish it was now... Though.

[Henry P]

so do I

[Maryd.]

I wish I was a cold heartless b____!!

[Henry P]

I can't grant that, my dear. Sorry

[Maryd.]

Please... I am sick of being taken for a ride... Because I am too soft, or to ignorant. :(

[Henry P]

Ok, you may harden up, but keep your soft heart

[Maryd.]

What good is this heart, if people keep playing it. No... Time to toss it.

[Henry P]

I catch it for you and bring it back

[Maryd.]

How, via plane?

[Henry P]

Yes, on ice to keep it fresh

[Maryd.]

Sigh...

[Henry P]

I wish I could stop Maryd from becoming hard

[Maryd.]

Damage is done Henry...:(

[Henry P]

aw:(, my dear

[Maryd.]

:( :(

[Henry P]

:hug::hug:

[Maryd.]

:cheekkiss: :cheekkiss:

[Henry P]

that's better

[Maryd.]

I wish some people can just tell me the truth... Not what I want to hear.

[Henry P]

Do you want to hear it then?

[Maryd.]

Sure why not...

[Henry P]

I wish I could read people's minds

[Maryd.]

Where's my truth Henry?

[Henry P]

I'm not sure, my dear. Perhaps you need to be older to understand your own truth. I know I see things differently and in my own way as I get older

[Maryd.]

I wish I wasn't so sad.

[Henry P]

Do you want to hear some good jokes?

[Maryd.]

Sure...

[Henry P]

How do you get a man to stop biting his nails?
Make him wear shoes.

[Maryd.]

Thanks darl... I loved that one... Just told my daughter had her in fits... Actually we high fived each other... Hahahaha
Thanks sir.

[Henry P]

Another then=
How many men does it take to open a beer?
None. It should be opened by the time she brings it to the couch.

How many men does it take to screw in a light bulb?
One-He just holds it up there and waits for the world to revolve around him.

[Maryd.]

Well this is about the first time today I have a smile on my face sir.
And laugh out loud at that matter.
Thanks

[Henry P]

One more then-
What makes a man think about a candlelight dinner?
A power failure.

[Maryd.]

Ok sir, I am happy now. Thanks.

[Henry P]

Glad to help

[Maryd.]

I wish I had wings and could fly

[Henry P]

free as a bird?

[Maryd.]

Thanks... Can I fly to a tropical island and bask in the sun?

[Henry P]

Of course, but remember the factor 40 cream

[Maryd.]

Oh yes... Always. Plus a hat.

[Henry P]

and plenty of drinks

[Maryd.]

With ice...

[Henry P]

of course

[Maryd.]

I wish I was funny

[Henry P]

I 'm sure you are, my dear

[Maryd.]

No, not really... I wish I could write comedy.

[Henry P]

it's not easy, but try thinking about experiences you laugh about

[Maryd.]

Yes... Thinking and writing are two different things.. Plus what I find funny, most people don't

[Henry P]

You never know. Mishaps and confusion are usually funny

[Maryd.]

Yes... Well this is true.

[Henry P]

Record incidents which made you and others laugh . Listen to people's funny true stories too

[Maryd.]

Good idea...

[Henry P]

Try it

[Maryd.]

I will... And when I do, I will let you know.

[Henry P]

okay.

[Maryd.]

I wish I was ambidextrous

[Henry P]

Are you right-handed like me?

[Maryd.]

Am, use to be left though... Was forced to change to right handed as a baby...

[Henry P]

My dad was a lefty but that was discouraged in the past. I open jars with my left hand, but that's it

[Maryd.]

Where we are from, if you write in your left hand it meant the sign of dominance and dominance meant you possess evil spirits... Which is why I was changed.

[Henry P]

Who believed in that?

[Maryd.]

Well I don't... But the old folks did... And their old folks. Even the nuns were against it.

[Henry P]

it's to do with sides of the brain

[Maryd.]

Try telling the old folk that!

[po37j4ck]

i use mostly my right hand but with computer we dont need pen and pencil because we have a keyboard, so it`s not matter anymore :)

[saeity]

I'm a lefty, although writing is the only
thing I do left handed. play golf/ swing a bat right handed.
