My Top Ten Birthday Wishes
10. World Peace (*snork* Yeah, right. No offense, but that would be a bit of a stretch. The logistics alone are quite daunting to consider. (Anybody ever see the Steve Martin SNL skit where he lists his Christmas wishes? Put me in Steve’s place & make it a birthday wish list instead of a Christmas one & we’re pretty much on the same page. 
) (Plus, if I could make birthday wishes that were actually going to come true, I’m sure I would attempt to be at least somewhat altruistic, but fall far short & go straight for the most selfish of choices. 
)
Real #10. Ice Cream (I wish that I could eat my weight in ice cream every single day without gaining an ounce. Maybe have a nice, big ice cream cake from Dairy Queen or even a regular chocolate cake with peanut butter icing for my birthday. (I know; that’s not technically ice cream anything, but it sure does sound good.) I love, love, love ice cream & miss it sooooo much. Chocolate, mint chocolate chip, peanut butter cup… (Oh, God, now I’m hungry!)
9. Prolificity (Yeah, I know…is that even a word? Probably not. But I wish I were a faster writer—i.e. more prolific & productive—& could whip out these stories as quickly as the ideas pop into my head.)
8. Kitties & Puppies & Bunnies, oh, my! (I wish every sweet little domestic animal on the planet could have a safe & loving home. And that the wild ones could be safe & left alone in their natural habitats, too.)
7. 48 Hours in a Day (Wouldn’t that be great? Because, let’s face it, twenty-four just isn’t enough. I need twelve hours of sleep…I never get it, but that’s what I need…& then I could still have thirty-six more to do all the things I need to do in a day. Plus some!)
6. Come Back, Come Back NOW! (I wish some great shows that have disappeared recently—like Flashpoint, The Eleventh Hour, & My Name is Earl would come back. Please? 
)
5. Dream House (I wish I could move into a big, beautiful new home away from… Well, this is a public forum, so I should maybe not say much more than that. But suffice to say, I want to move & I’m not real particular as to where!)
4. A Million Dollars (Or, hey, ten, twenty, a hundred million would work, too. I’m not picky. And I don’t care how it comes to me…a lottery win, a ginormous book contract, inheriting a long lost relative’s fortune… Whatever. But if I had a million dollars (minimum 
), I would do all the things the Barenaked Ladies say they’d do in their song “If I Had $1,000,000.” Plus, I would buy my dream house, hire a band of mercenaries to find my darling Dwayne & bring him to me (unharmed, of course, but bound would be okay 
), & build a shelter large enough to house every homeless animal on the planet—& a couple of big cat sanctuaries, to boot—& probably have some left over.)
3. Creativity (I wish I possessed the brilliance of authors such as Susan Elizabeth Phillips, Laurell K. Hamilton, or J.R. Ward. (Maybe the trick is to have three names, huh? *vbg*) I read these books & love them so much, but even though I love what I write & love the ideas I come up with on my own, I 
know my brain will never even come close to coming up with the sort of things theirs do. It can be downright depressing, let me tell you. 
)
2. FIREFLY!!!! (I wish Firefly would come back on the air. Not just repeats of the original episodes or Serenity, but the entire cast returning for a million more seasons of new episodes. Is that so much to ask? Really. IS THAT SO 
MUCH TO ASK?!? I think not. Now do it, dammit! Because if I really try, I’m betting I can kill you with my brain.)
1. Dwayne (Do I even need to elaborate on this one? Didn’t think so. Although I will say that I would be willing to settle for almost anything Dwayne-related. A birthday phone call, a pop-in, a giant diamond engagement ring slipped on my finger while he professes his undying love… Basically any tiny crumb he’d like to toss my way. Is that so much to ask? Again, I think not.)
(P.S. I hope you’ll drop by Must Love Yarn today, where K.M. Daughters is guest blogging about “Knitting on a Prayer”…& giving away a free book. 
)
It’s very likely that Dwayne might not be all his muscley butt promises to be. I will be willing to test this out for you, you know, cuz I’m nice like that.
And, I have permission from my husband to do this if Dwayne is up for it, so it won’t even get me in any trouble. I don’t want an engagement ring or anything, happily married and all, just offering to, you know, sample stuff, make sure it’s all in working order as it were.
My husband will eat ice cream with you. It’s his favorite. And you know, actually, he’s pretty hot, so, if that helps…
Happy birthday, BTW.
Oh, and do you have an ex rotting in the basement and he won’t leave, so you need to move? Did things go south with Jack?
Happy Birthday!! lol lovee the list
Happy Birthday. I admire how you put The Rock as your number one wish and world peace is number ten. You have your priorities straight.
Happy early Birthday love your list…it rocks maybe the UPS man will bring you a delivery of Dwayne…
Happy Birthday week! And may you get every one of your wishes, and a few more, just for good measure.
And speaking of wish #1, isn’t there a birthday tradition that you have to be spanked once for every year of life, or something like that? Me-ow!
Good morning, everyone! I’m a little behind today, but wanted to give a head’s up that I won’t be around tomorrow much at all…at least not until later in the day. Little Pekoe Boo has to be at the vet bright & early in the morning for a little nip/tuck. And even tonight is going to be rough, since I have to keep him away from all food & H2O starting at 8pm. Rather than take it away from everybody, I’ve decided to lock him in my bedroom with me…but I already know that’s going to be a nightmare. (Have I mentioned that 4mo old kittens *don’t sleep*?
)
Anyway, thank you for the b’day good wishes. We’re going to have fun pretending everything from my list actually has a shot of coming true. Well, hey, I might get a bit of ice cream tomorrow, so there’s that. And Dwayne *could* still show up on my doorstep. Hey, you never know!
Oh, & feel free to share your own B’day Wish List with us! Whether your b’day has recently passed, is coming up soon, or isn’t for months yet…pretend you’re a wonderful Scorp like moi
& let me know what *you’d* be wishing for if the candles were on your cake. 
Oh, so sorry about the kitty. :-( Bad birthday mojo. Dwayne HAS to show up now. Did you catch him on SNL the other night tearing out of his clothes? Meow.
Birthday wishes?
10. To turn the same age I did last year. And then be done. Stop already!!!
9. A shopping spree for things for my house.
8. lots of money to spend on Amazon, for my Kindle, so I can read myself into a coma.
7. A babysitter.
6. Lots and lots of whipcream and my husband. I think this is self explanatory.
5. A really nice hotel room, with room service, and a really big bed. See above.
4. Gonna go with 5 million dollars. It would be nice to have. Was gonna wish for a better job for hubs, but hey, why not just 5 million dollars so he can have a break already!!
3. A maid.
2. A contract with M&B for my sub. Natch.
1. For everyone in my family to continue to be healthy and happy. :-) and if Dwayne wanted to show up, I wouldn’t make him leave.
Okay, ladies, I have a really big favors to ask. Being my Darlings of The Dungeon, could you all collect your whips & assorted dominance toys, gather together…& beat the crap out of Maisey for me?
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but she’s totally trying to lay claim to my darling Dwayne. Or at least imply that she would sleep with him if given the chance. And that is just not going to happen because we all know that HE IS MINE!!! Y’know how possessive Laura was the other day when pics of her Brad went up? Well, my possessiveness level for Dwayne tops that by about a million trillion gazillion. And I have Mistress Heidi on my side.
So BACK OFF, Maisey!!! Do not make me hurt you. You will not like it.
P.S. The kitty thing is actually good. Gotta get those little boys (& little girls, too!) snipped the minute they’re old enough, otherwise they get bad. And this one’s already about as bad as I can handle.
Well, glad that it’s just a routine procedure.
*Sigh* since it’s your birthday I will back off of Dwayne. But I have a longstanding thing for him, just so you know. But since I am married to a man who quite strongly resembles Mr. The Rock, I will step aside. It is your birthday after all. No need to whip me!!
I’ll find someone else…I mean…something else to do.
I don’t want to *sleep* with him anyway. I just want to oil his muscles up. While the hubby said I have a get out of marriage free card for Dwayne, I have a feeling I’d have to offer him Elizabeth Hurley or Megan Fox and I don’t have those kinds of connections…
oh Maisey..will you never learn???
he is HANDS OFF!! and we keep our eyes averted..no eye contact with him either!! penalties will be paid to be disobedient!! shudder…..
my birthday is past…and so far my wish list is far from being aquired!! but im still wishing anyway!!i like the Firefly one! new house would be nice with lots of bookshelves.
plus i’d like to learn to spell also…acquired! snork!
I know better than to try and take Dwayne away from Heidi. Still have the bruises last time I offered to “help” train him.
If it were my birthday these are the top 10 things I would like to have.
10. Hugh Jackman
9. Jeffrey Donovan
8. Bradley Cooper
7. Michael Weatherly
6. Bradley Cooper
5. Simon Baker
4. Chris Pine
3. Bradley Cooper
3. Bradley Cooper
2. Bradley Cooper
1. Bradley Cooper
If I could have a Top 11 then #11 would have been World Peace, with a huge helping of Bradley Cooper.
Bradley Cooper bringing world peace, while riding a white stallion?
Hugh Jackman is my other ‘get out of marriage free’ card man. My husband agrees to these things so readily it’s like he thinks Hugh Jackman isn’t going to come to Oregon and cheat on his wife with me. It’s strange.
And hey, Dwayne is single these days, so the engagement ring could be forthcoming, Heidi.
Happy Birthday week, Heidi! I hope you get all on your wish…especially #1.

Maisey~ I will forgive you for the slip just this once because you’re kind of new to The Dungeon & therefore maybe don’t understand the true level of ***DWAYNE IS MINE*** This has been established for quite some time, & tho Mistress Heidi may keep many boy toys in her various cells to keep her occupied, Dwayne is my one & only. (Well, okay, I *look* at other hot guys, but the brand is definitely right there on his tight, hot butt.)
Laura~ Hmmm, I don’t know, I think I may like your b’day wish list better than mine.
As I mentioned earlier, it’s early to bed for me tonight…or at least early to the bedroom. And, sadly, not in the good way.
Gotta go trap myself with the baby now to keep him away from the others’ food & H2O all night.
Good night, everyone! I’ll chat with you more tomorrow, but it may not be till later in the day.
Poor baby kitty. No wait…Poor Heidi. I hope he doesn’t like the taste of toes.
I heading to bed early myself tonight. After almost 3 hours at the doctor’s office today (B’girl got a real cast today), I’m whipped and not in a good way.
Oh Maisey–I would prefer that Bradley be riding a black stallion bare in a black cowboy hat.
Well fudge—I meant riding a black stallion bareBACK in a black cowboy hat…
no wait, I had it right the first time.
either way he’d be naked for you.
