Jon and Karyn sat at the Dairy Queen eating cookie dough blizzards, enjoying the weather, and of course discussing the wish Jon had made the night before.
Karyn just shook her head, "I dunno Jon, I still can't believe you did something so stupid. No offense. But you got really lucky. I mean, wishing for something open ended like 'something interesting' to happen could have caused all kinds of craziness. I could have been a huge disaster!"
"I know" Jon said glumly as he poked around in his cup for more cookie dough.
Karyn was tired of beating a dead horse over Jon's dangerous wish, so instead she asked Jon "So...what DO we want to wish for next?"
Jon just gave her an odd look and told her in the least confrontational tone he could muster, "Well Karyn, I hate to point out the obvious, but, when you wished for your hair and boobs to change the other day I have to admit I was kind of confused you didn't make the more, you know, obvious change."
Karyn shot him an angry look and asked him coldly, "What do you mean, obvious change?"
Jon stammered out, "Uh, well...you know, I just thought that you would umm, wish to not have your antlers anymore...that's all."
Karyn's hand shot up to the four pointed rack of deer antlers sticking out from her head and she shouted, "What? No fucking way! I LIKE my antlers Jon, they make me unique. It's part of who I am! Sure, when they first grew out when I went through puberty I was upset about it, but I've grown to like them."
Jon tried to recover by saying calmly, "sorry Karyn, I just thought.."
"Thought what? That they're ugly? That they make me a freak? You told me you liked them many times. Now you think it's obvious I wish them away? How would you like it if I said it would be obvious for you to wish for a new face?"
"Karyn, seriously, chill. I didn't mean anything by it, I just assumed you'd wish for that instead of the boobs. Sorry."
Karyn just crossed her arms and told Jon, "Well you assumed wrong Jon I really like them even if they are a bit odd. I especially like them lately now that they get up to four points on them. I mean, sure they looked silly when I was younger and they were just growing in as spikes, but they grow in a bit bigger each year so eventually I'll have a really nice rack to go with my other new, uh, rack."
"Oh ha ha" Jon said with a sarcastic tone.
Karyn just smiled a bit and told him, "In all seriousness though I'm not interested in changing who I am. I even still have all my antlers I've shed in the past and....."
Karyn was distracted by a car slamming on it's brakes out in the street. Both Karyn and Jon then saw the car back up and pull into the DQ parking lot. As soon as the car had parked a man in a disheveled suit got out and ran up to Karyn and touched her shoulder.
As Karyn and Jon just stared in shock at the odd man with wide eyes he suddenly blurted out "God DAMN it!" and then got back in his car and drove off with tires squealing.
"What the hell was that?" Jon asked.
Karyn just shrugged her shoulders and told him. "I dunno, but something similar to it happened this morning. A lady at the 7-11 bumped into me from behind and instead of saying sorry she just shouted woohoo and ran away."
"Weird" Jon said as he went back to eating his ice cream treat.
