Wishful Thinking

My roommate in college had this thing about clocks and wishes.  I completely forgot about it until recently when I found myself doing it.  And now I’m doing it and can’t stop.  I need to stop.

But basically, it’s this and it only works with digital clocks:

Everytime a clock shows a number that could be exactly the same in reverse, you get to make a wish. 

2:12.  Wish.

5:55. Wish.

But 12:12, no wish.

It’s amazing how many wishes you can pack into a few hours. Especially between 1 and 3 a.m.

I always wish for the same thing.  Always, always.  Until there’s no point in wishing for it anymore.
