You know what’s an absolute travesty? The fact that in order to write this article, I had to move a dog from my lap. Please appreciate my sacrifice.
It’s a rainy, gloomy day here and I really wish I could just spend the day curled up in a chair with a good book, a magically refilling mug of coffee, and my snoozing dogs.
What can I say? I know what I want in life and right now, it doesn’t involve working.

Not that I don’t enjoy my job. Pretty hard to complain about spending my days being paid to write about cool things on the internet, but like… I’d also like to get some more sleep.
Or maybe just have a fairy godmother appear to grant a few wishes.

Oh, I don’t want a fancy dress or Prince Charming.
That would involve socializing in a crowded ballroom and I doubt those glass slippers were comfortable to dance in.
No, if I had a fairy godmother or three wishes from a genie, I’d wish for more grounded things.

The ability to always get a restful night’s sleep, my mortgage paid off, and for my chores to be magically done each day.
Seriously, I could die happy if I just never had to wash another pot or pan.

Though, admittedly, it’s been a decade since I lived in a place with a dishwasher, so that may be an achievable goal without wasting a wish.
Unlimited coffee. That is a much better third wish, please and thanks.
