500 more wishes

tonight during book club, max showed me the leprechaun trap and told me about the wishes he had hoped to make.
“first i was going to wish that i was a tryrannesaurus rex,” he said. “then i was gonna wish that the Army wouldn’t kill me. wait, no no no no first i was going to wish for infinite wishes, then for the Army not to kill me and then i was gonna wish i was indefeatable.”
“indefeatable?” i asked.
“yeah,”” he said. “it means that nobody can defeat you. i don’t want my enemies to defeat me.”
“you gotta lot of enemies?” i asked.
“not yet,” he said. “but i might someday.”
“way to plan ahead.”

    we didn’t catch anything in our trap either, those leprechauns are very tricky, that’s why they have all that gold, I sure wish they’d let their mustaches grow, there’s something weird about a beard and no mustache, but maybe it’s easier for them to eat cabbage without it getting stuck in their mouth hairs.
