    If you could have one "thing" right now, what would it be?

    What do you want?

    I would like a studio space I can start shooting my photography in. Not completely unattainable so hopefully one day!

    A nice fat royalty cheque for my book and upcoming movie.

    Yeah, right. :(

    I'd love to have won the vote for Scottish independence.

    Isn't it sickening.
    For centuries men have spilled blood for it. Now, for want of a pencil scratch on a ballot we could be free from Mother England.

    A better President Elect - Perhaps one who is not so obviously a user/abuser would be great.

    Losing my English heritage :-( ?

    No, with a terminal case of the 'tireds' what I want most right now is an empty head + a comfortable bed—one plush and resplendent, yes, with uber-soft down duvet, plumped pillows, and a mattress you could float on. And on...and on.

    3 more hours a day, every day, that I can dedicate to writing.

    A bugle to rally loyal subjects under my standard, probably a spot north of Berwick.

    A joint, possibly? Or some middle-aged ladies in underwear: four of five ladies to chase up down the stairs with a fly swat, hide and seek, entirely innocent fun.

    I shouldn't have typed such a thing to be fair, overcome with Friday's joy. I'll think I'll reel things in a little, request instead maybe a small boat, dear SantaCarly.

    An extra 30 or so I.Q. points.

    Failing that, a deeper understanding of people and our world.

    Failing both of those, loads of money.

    If you mean "right right now" ?!

    Simple.

    A better cup of coffee than what that horrible bandit & mobile "gut truck" just coughed up.

    A tender loving Mistress. Then I would have someone who understands me, and can motivate me to get domestic chores done in a more timely fashion. Also snuggles and cuddles. :supersmile:

    Here you are @Mumble Bee - hold him for a little bit, but don't hurt him, he is so fragile.

    I'm really craving a pizza, but luckily I made the dough this morning and this dream will come true in about 30 minutes!!

    I'd also like my manuscript to be finished, published, and selling, because I've recently learned that I am more introverted that I think, and I probably would be much happier having a job that I could do from home.

    I guess it's my short term and long term plan ^^

    A voluntary layoff that I'm accepted for. When I was young, I would stare at the several-years-from-retirement old folks and wonder why on earth would you want to be laid off? Money! Paycheck! What's your deal?

    Now, oh yes yes yes, I get it. Getting early access to some of the retirement infrastructure so that I can live in (frugal) freedom until full retirement kicks in? And I've been at this for enough years that the per-year-of-service severance payment is not trivial. Gimme!

    I'm torn between a dirty woman and a bottle of whiskey. Hmm, decisions, decisions...
