Wreaking

I was just making the kids beds and thinking how odd it is that the only thing we can "wreak" is havoc. We can't really wreak disaster, or trouble, or even annoyance. Just havoc.

It would be interesting to expand that, don't you think? Like, to "wreak" some cookies? "I'm going to wreak some cookies on your ass!" Or wreaking joy? "What is it with you today, Jen? You seem so happy." "Oh, I've just been wreaking joy."

I need to take a shower now, where I will wreak some cleanliness.

Watch out.
