Sometimes, life gets significantly boring and we have to use things like superstitions to entertain ourselves. Im going to let you guys in on the creamy caramel center to my life as a human suffering from superstition.
we all know the phrase "step on the crack and your break your daddy's back" can i just say that people really should keep torturous sayings from the lives of the young population. lets just say this hit home with me in like 1st grade. i really didnt want my fathers back to break just because i stepped on a little tiny crack. he was our provider and i would never be able to live with myself.
thats where it alllll started.
then i discovered wishes at certain times. my time has been and always will be 3:33. but heres the thing. you cant just have one tiny little requirement. or ficticious wish genie creature will think that you really dont want your wish. so you must prove yourself to him. my logic has been that if you follow enough made up rules, eventually you'll get what you want out of life.
wish - rule # 1 so anyways, i decided that if 3:33 was in fact the chosen time for magic, 3:34 should not be invited. therefore, my first wish-rule is that you can NOT see the time change. Of course this doesnt sound hard, right? you might be thinking, "Jenna. JUST DONT LOOK." but no. for me, its like a car accident or a rumors of a really large spider occupying your wall...you wanna look, but you dont wanna look! and no matter how much i fight it, sometimes my greasy little eyes wander just in time to see 3:34 come to pass. and all wishes are off.
wish rule # 2 then i thought to myself one day that all clocks arent always in perfect synchronization. there could be one clock that says 3:32 and the one on your phone could say 3:35 and the one in the kitchen could say 3:33. so if you miss the desired time, can you go visit another clock?? the answer is yes. because if wish genie does not allow people some slack, hes like an evil genie. and thats just too close to the devil. so yes, but only once. if you miss it again all wishes are once again OFF.
wish rule # 3 the final wish-rule (yes THREE wish-rules for 3:33 seemed appropriate) is that you may not, under ANY circumstances, WHATSOEVER tell another soul what your wish was before it has come true. if i was wish-genie, that would piss me right off. you can't write it, or whisper it, or make it an answer to a impromptu game of charades. if you do, all wishes are MURDERED.
these are just the wish rules for time-wishes.... birthday, wishbones and dandelion wishes? Completely different stories. if you want to know my rules so that perhaps your wishes will finally come true. just ask. :)
arent you glad you visited my blog today? :)
