I would wish for the ability to resist the procrastination temptation.
Seriously.
That would solve ALL MY PROBLEMS. All of them. I swear to God.
Well, that or I wish I could force myself to go to bed earlier. Either one is fine, though the first one would probably take care of the second one anyway.
I would like to by

I would wish for more consistant inspiration. It has always been pretty sporadic and I would like to be able to sit down and write a complete story instead of just bits and pieces of one.
Sounds like a case for the Open-Source Wish Project. by

... for the science fiction series I'm writing. It's called Dram of Evil.
Would wishing all evil out of existence even be possible? by

If not, I would go with immortal agelessness, or a personal hovercar. 'Cause you can't hit another car if yours is up in the air!
Shapeshifting. by

Definitely shape-shifting. With the caveat, of course, that you keep your mind and soul in every shape you take. I don't mind it taking practice-- as in, turning your physical shape into a dog's does not mean you are good at being a quadruped, and flight would be a trick unto itself-- and a new trick with every different kind of bird. (Example: crows flap like crazy to gain altitude at all, raptors soar, sparrows flutter, and hummingbirds are basically the teeny-tiny helicopters of the avian world.) Likewise with sharks, and remembering to keep your tail in motion at all times.
Still! Imagine shifting into a Thunderbird-- you could make it all the way across the continent in record time! Or, if you could do something extra-dimensional, like a Sasquatch or one of the Fae, and use the Ways? Plus, disguises! Invisibility! And all the experiments it would take aside, eventually being able to fly in human form!

I would wish to have the universe fulfill the meaning of any statement that "I" make that is preceded by the phrase "I wimble-wamble-flimble-flamble that. . . ".
Do I have to use the wish immediately? by

If not, first I hire a lawyer. Then, I wish for the fulfilment of Wish Contract #1. (This is to avoid semantic loopholes messing it up.)
What Wish Contract #1 would be, I'm not sure. A wish for immortality has so many catches even a wish contract might not get rid of them all, so I probably shouldn't risk it. Maybe a perfect memory, retroactive if possible (AND the ability to forget things at will: unlike Agent Nume, I don't have Bleepka to help me). If that counts as two, I suppose I'd settle for a dream recorder.

Because if you said, say, 'I wish I could sing', and you just get a cop-out like 'Oh, well everyone can sing, can't they, just not well', you'd be a bit mad.
I would wish for the ability to draw well. It's always something I've wanted to be able to do, but I draw worse than a duck with no wings. =(
