Three Wishes

One day I was extremely bored when suddenly I saw a lone shoe. Little did I know that this lone shoe was the key to my three wishes. I then had a sudden urge to rub it. Out of the shoe came a red misty figure. This mysterious figure then exclaimed, ”BOOM! Ya got three wishes!”

I didn’t know which was less believable, there being a genie here, or that a genie came out of a shoe.

For my first wish, I wished for a pot of gold. But this genie was just like in the movies. He tricked me! Instead of giving me a pot of gold, he gave me a pot filled with gold. That’s not what I asked for at all! But I suppose it doesn’t make to much of a difference.

For my next wish I wished for a leprechaun. Why, you might ask? So I could tease and annoy him about the fact I had a pot of..I’m sorry a pot filled with gold and he didn’t. I stopped teasing him when his face turned redder than his beard. Man, you should’ve seen him. A guy that’s an inch tall and as red as a cherry. Ha!

Now I had to be careful, it was my third and final wish. If I made a screwy wish I’d be stuck with it. So I wished for the simplest thing known to man. A fish. It was simply to eat for dinner. It was my favorite too, rainbow trout.

In the end it all turned out good. We had the fish for dinner, I probably should’ve asked the genie to have it already cooked and gutted. I was rich from the pot of.. sorry again, the pot filled with gold. The leprechaun can roam the house as long as he doesn’t cause mischief. So that’s the story of my three wishes.
