"Oh, I Wish..."*

I am not a spiritual or superstitious person. I believe in little to nothing. And yet, every time I go through a tunnel while driving I make a wish. I hold my breath and close my eyes (if I am not behind the wheel) and make a wish. If I hold my breath the whole way through, well then my wish comes true doncha know.

I had forgotten this ritual, habit, superstition of mine until the other night. Sam commented on the number of stars in the (as mentioned) beautiful DC sky. At this, Altman revealed that he made a wish on the first star he saw every night. Sam makes wishes whenever he notices that it's 11:11.

Today I made a wish when I threw money into a fountain. Perhaps I'm not as hard as I think I am.

*name that jingle tune!
