“Rise and shine, Cupcake.”
“Huh? Wha’? Whossere?”
“Cantcha see me, Lovey?”
“Okay, really, who’s there?”
“Right here, Honeybunch!”
“This must be a dream. Because you’re in my alarm clock.”
“Yeah, well, it’s not my fault if your friends thought it would be hilarious to buy you a Disney-themed birthday present.”
“Sure, I’ll play along, because this is going to be a fun dream to tell people about tomorrow. If you’re the Genie, why don’t you sound like Robin Williams?”
“I do!”
“No, you don’t.”
“Do too!”
“Whatever.”
“Anyway, as I said, rise and shine and all that. It’s officially your birthday. So what do you want from me?”
“So you’re a bona-fide genie? Well, in this dream anyway?”
“It’s not a dream, Cherry-blossom. And yes, I am.”
“Quit it with the flowery nicknames, will you? It’s getting old. So how many wishes do I get?”
“The usual three. Gotta go by tradition here, Honey-pie. Honey and pie aren’t flowers.”
“You’re obnoxious, you know that?”
“Whatever, as you’d say.”
“Okay, so here are my wishes. I want to wake up, have a good day and never have this weird dream again.”
“Seriously? No money, princes, true love, eternal life, all that stuff?”
“Since this is a dream – NO.”
“It isn’t a dream. But okay, here goes, if that’s really all you want. You ready?”
“Yes, I’m quite ready to wake up from this ridiculous dream, thank you.”
“Well, you’re missing out on a great opportunity here. But if you’re sure…

BEEP BEEP BEEP”
Hahaha! 🙂 Made me smile.
PS Is today your birthday? If so, Happy Birthday!!!!!
Lol, darn obnoxious dream genie! And if it is your birthday, Happy Birthday!
This is an original way to celebrate a birthday!! Love the story 🙂 (and the obnoxious genie).
Happy Happy Happy Birthday!! 🙂
(happy birthday?) 🙂
i liked this, it made me smile
Not my birthday yet! Just inspired by its closeness. It’s June 26, so another couple weeks to go :).
Thanks for the laugh! You’re great!
That was super cute. I like it. It was light.
Loved it! What a fun story! Happy early birthday! I was wondering what everyone else was wondering…
I thoroughly enjoyed that. At the end I couldn’t help thinking, “What a twist!” 🙂
Hopefully that dream is an omen and portends a birthday where all three of those wishes will come true.
I have to be honest, though. I’d only have used one wish but it would have been the ability to read minds. With that I’d be able to take over the world and make the rest of my dreams come true without any wishing. Mwuhahaha!
