What I Want For Christmas
I have my share of wit, but I need more. Doubling it would help. Tripling it would settle me nicely. If I had the ability to see moments into the future, I’d love that, too. Just a moment or two would fit just fine. I’d love more ready-made conversation topics and the Right Thing To Say at the opportune moment.
But most of all, I wish I could see into a mind and be able to make sense of these jumbled signs and signals so I know how to play back. The presentation up to this point has been so incongruous and atypical that it leaves me wondering if I’m wrong. I want to avoid this limbo if I can. I just want to know already so I can start thinking of how I’m going to deal with this since that will be a feat in and of itself with a wish list even longer than this.
It leaves me wondering if that party at the other end is having the same thoughts as mine.
