Hi! This is Sarah on Schmenny's computer. Since the MudPeople were so kind in helping me find my guitar *she is great* I was wondering if you would want to help me write a song?

I want to know your little wishes. Not the great big boy-i-wanna-win-the-lottery wishes. Just the little ones that would make you smile.

To give you an idea: I asked Jen, and she says that a little wish she has is to be able to growl like Roy Orbison when he sings Pretty Woman.

Thank you MudPeople, and wish away. I'm here for a bit, and when I finish the song I'll have Schmenny help me put it here.

Sarah

I wish I was in the arms of the woman I love.

Besides that, I wish my voice wasn't so nasal and whiny.

I wish my fingernails grew as strong as my toenails.

Is that little enough? :0)

Actually, I got one of my little wishes yesterday--new toilet. When flushed, the brown goes down.........hee hee.

Another is that I wish I could learn tunes by ear after only hearing them a few times.

Grass that stays green, does not require water or mowing
(yea, I've thought about AstroTurfing my entire yard)

Weeds that fall over and die when I say "BOO!" at them

Dust repellent furniture, etc.

A husband that does Honey Do's.

Computers that don't crash.

Dogs that don't shed.......(DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT CHINESE CRESTEDS!!)

How many more you need, LOL?

Wow, guys, thanks! I have -partly- my song! Schmenny is making me go to an open mic tonight and you'll all be famous. So if anyone was wishing for that, you got it. Here's my little wishing song, and sorry Amergin. If I knew any of your songs I'd sing them all over the streets of my town.

**LITTLE WISHES**

Jenny wants to growl like some dead guy
Matt's wants a soothing baritone
Chip just wishes he could hit a note
Pat wants a working cell phone
Megan wants a man
Who won't leave her when she's old
And Sarah wishes she could grow strawberries
Even when it's cold.

me?????? well....
I wish that I could sing instead of cringing
While I'm sending my notes up to the stars
If I could have one little wish
I wish that I could play guitar
I've seen the sky above me, everyone wishing for a little bit more
The sky is covered in diamonds, yeah, I know what I'm wishing for

Mary wants a forever clean house
Noreen wants hard as nails
Cathy wants to make really good soup
Jack wishes for self-cleaning diaper pails
Melanie would like it
if she never had to shave her legs
Nathan wishes for a beautiful love,
maybe he should talk to Megs?

me?????? well....
I wish that I could play instead of cringing
While I'm sending my notes up to the stars
If I could have one little wish
I wish that I could play guitar
I've seen the sky above me, there's a wish for every star
The sky is covered in diamonds, yeah, I know how wishes are

Too late to make a little wish? I wish that Matt could see himself the way I see him. Whiny voice, indeed!

No, I am not. And I refuse to explain myself to a man who refuses to wear underwear.
