It does, but now it's eerily quiet, you can't hear a sound, so you creep to the window, reach out with a trembling hand, pull back the drape to see A beautiful blanket of pristine, glittering snow covering everything, until the neighborhood looks just like a beautiful Christmas card, and your heart is filled with wonder and awe.... Then you remember you have to be at work at 7:00Am tomorrow and you car is half buried underneath the damn snow! I wish I dance graceful ballroom dances

You can, and with such panache that you become world-famous for your interpretation, your fluidity, your at-oneness with your partners.....then ballroom dancing is banned by the Government for encouraging unhealthy jealousy amongst everyone else when compared to you. And you're hopeless at Latin.
I wish I could wing-walk.

You can and decide to remain there for the rest of your creaturely life.
I wish I had a more generous nature.

Poof! You are the most generous person on the planet, sadly though everyone else is an a**, and you can't give them a piece of your mind! lol
I wish I could taste the rainbow.

You can, and ooh, ouch, dang-it, it's hot, so hot, that now you can't taste anything at all. Who knew???
I wish I would meet Rufus Sewell by chance, and that he'd become totally enchanted, with me......

Somehow or other you swing it, and it looses its charm as you get used to it.
I wish I could get a move on it.

We could...but it reminds everyone that the Plague inspired that little ditty, so nobody wants to play it any more.
I wish my name was different

You do - but they then become rather more familiar with you than you wanted, and you regret your impetuosity
I wish I could be less sarcastic

Now you're very, very calm...but your change of peesonality doesn't suit you, your friends preferred you the way you were...and, anyway, it's just too much darn trouble to keep a lid on things. And much healthier for your blood pressure to let off steam!
I wish I was 4 inches taller.

YOu are, but your clothes aren't...nothing to wear!

You are! But now you can't get anyone to leave you alone, and privacy has flown out the window.
I wish I could make my hair grow 12 inches overnight.

You can..and the night after , and the one after that one, until your hair tangles your feet up so you can't get out of bed(not all bad, I guess)
I wish my father would live to be 200 years old.

He does....but once he gets past 150, the Government decides his longevity is so unusal, they keep him locked up in a secret research laboratory so they can find the secret of eternal life. He just wants to play dominoes.
I wish the time would arrive when I can come off this diet!

It does, but you don't...you waste away to a cachectic shadow of yourself.
I wish I'd gotten to bed earlier last night.

Hmm.....we'll have to arrange for you to do some time-travelling so you can. But although you do get to bed earlier, your neighbours are having an all-night party that you've not been invited to as you fell out with them months ago, so you get no sleep whatsoever. You migth just as well have slept late this morning to make up for it.
I wish I could summon up the energy to write the letters that have to go with some of the Christmas cards I'm sending.
