Annie MacGregor/Sunshine MacGillicutty
Modern Day Virginia
Annie had just about completed PART 2 to a story about U.S.Marshal Matt Dillon of "Gunsmoke" fame and his sweetie, Sunshine MacGillicutty. "Hmmmmmm. I wonder if I should have Sunshine do her Tarzan scream when she flies into bed, next to Matt."(2) The possibilities were endless.
She decided it was time to get outside and enjoy some swim fun at the club. She quickly slipped on her bathing suit and cover-all and grabbed her beach bag. That bag carried her essentials........ it was packed with everything from sun lotions to her all important "MattMusic." These were tapes she had compiled that further implimented her scenarios regarding the future of the stories she was writing on YA.
It was really too hot to be outside, but she needed a break.
First things first," she admonished herself. The birdbath needed fresh water and ice...... Yes. It was THAT hot. Next, she filled a little bowl with the same..... This was for the little rabbit she saw from time to time in her front yard.
The fact that her house looked like grand central station barely phased her. Ever since she had adopted the habit of writing 3 to 6 stories a day on YA, the idea of housekeeping was quickly losing it's importance........ "Fiddle-dee-dee, " Annie chirped. "Tomorrow's another day. Farewell, Tara!!!" One of her neighbors heard this and started laughing......" Why Sunshine MacGillicutty.... Have you now taken to quoting Miss Scarlett?" Annie smiled and let out a crazy shriek......
" HEE HAW !! Save your Dixie Cups !!! THE SOUTH SHALL RISE AGAIN !!!!!" The neighbor looked at her, rolled his eyes and said:" Does Matt know how BIZARRE you truely are?!" Annie smiled , played her air guitar and sang out.....
♫ "My baby loves me just the way that I am.♫"
Her neighbor laughed........ "Hee Haw, Annie."
When Annie reached the pool, she found it was not crowded...."Hmmmm...... All the sane folks are home, sipping ice cold cranberry juice. Well doggone it! It's time for me to do something.... ANYTHING other than further my Dodge City neurosis !! Man! I crack me up!" Annie laughed at herself as she dove into the almost tepid water. She played like a wild little otter with some kids she had befriended.
"Do it AGIN, Annie. Do it AGIN!!" Annie did her famous rendition of Donald Duck brushing his teeth for the second time!! She had been at the club for 10 minutes and was already having a ball.
When she got out of the water, she noticed two ladies off to the left. She overheard their conversation...... "Well I think Paris Hilton would make a GREAT president. Oh, GOD! I'm late for my appointment at the spa!!"
Annie stubbed her toe as she laughed out loud and walked quickly back to her little spot...."Man! (1) Beautiful women are ruled by their face and figure more than their mind! Hee Haw you idiots."
Annie got out her cassett player and slipped in her tape. Within seconds, the music....HER music, started causing her legs to move to the beat. She simply could NOT sit still when she listened to it. Lost in her world of James Arness,The Dodge Boys and Sunshine MacGillicutty, she had no idea how she appeared to others around her. One fellow stared in amused bewilderment as Annie sang out......
♫" Cowgirls with guitars are really something special. They can rope, they can ride and baby how they play.
And that U.S. Marshal is dancing to a different beat. Oh Miss Kitty today jest ain't yer day!!♫"
She jumped up with a start. The man next to her had spit out his drink in his fit of laughter. "Oh, maam, I am SO sorry. PLEASE ..... Let me offer you my towel!! Your song was SO hysterical !!" Annie laughed and laughed....... "Oh, that's okay, buckaroo. I'm glad you thought it was funny." He asked what she was listening to. Annie decided to come clean and REALLY tell the truth.....She knew he was a guest; She'd never see him again.....
"Some of my best friends have been strangers," she mused. Sooooo........ She told him ALL about her stories and her aspirations concerning them.
He looked at her thoughtfully..... "I think it is very possible your dreams will come true. "
Annie:"Thank you. I believe they will."
The man left soon. The weather was just too muggy for him.
As he got up to go, he extended his hand....."...."(4) Be careful what you wish for, Annie! For you most certainly will attain it"
Annie smiled and shook his hand. She remembered how a college professor had written that in her yearbook, many,many years ago.
The heat was once again taking it's toll. Annie couldn't stand it. She walked quickly over to the pool and dove in. The water was too shallow at the spot she had chosen and she struck the bottom of the pool. She felt herself grimace and then ..... nothing. She heard her mother's voice calling her......" ANNIE!! I'll get you, baby." In another moment someone scooped her up and brought her to the surface.
Sputtering and coughing, Annie found herself in someone's arms. It was the man she had been talking to.
He had come back to retrieve a book he had left on his chair.
Annie:"Thank you. Ohhh, thank you.(3) I never thought I'd need rescuing."
The man:" Let me see your cut." As he gently touched her forehead, Annie was reminded of something that had happened YEARS ago.
Annie:" You know. My mom saved me on 2 different occasions....In this very pool." The man wanted to hear more.
She described her blessed mother, both spiritually and physically. The man gasped...."WHAT?!" Startled, Annie looked at him..."What's wrong?"
He told you that the reason he had come back for his book was because a woman had told him he had left it there.
A woman who fit the description of Annie's mom !!!
Annie wanted to run and find her.... But something stopped her.
That feeling started coming over her. That blessed, holy feeling. The one she would get..... The one that told her that she was in the presence of a heavenly soul.
"Ohhhhh, mommy. You just saved me, again..........................
(5)Life sometimes has a funny way of repeating itself."

Life has a funny way of getting your attention. I never thought I would need rescuing, but here I am at the top of this tree waiting for the fireman to figure out how to get me down. All this trouble because I asked that genie to let me see the whole town at once. Well, Mom always told me “Be careful what you wish for!” Now I know what she meant. I don’t know why that genie put me here since the possibilities were endless. She could have put me on top of the bank building downtown, or up on the hill just outside of town. But no, she put me here. I don’t know what she was thinking, but I guess that proves beautiful women are ruled by their face and figure more than their mind. Seems to be true for female genies too.

Josephine was walking down the street thinking just how sad she felt about loosing her best friend Abigail and still trying to figure out why BEAUTIFUL WOMEN ARE RULED BY THEIR FACEAND FIGURE MORE THAN THEIR MIND because if they weren't then surely Abigail would still be on this earth with her, she never would have gone in for cosmetic surgery and died under the anaesthetic. It is so sad thought Josephine as Abigail still had the rest of her life in front of her, she was so young and THE POSSIBILITIES WERE ENDLESS from what she could have made of herself had she not been so vain.Josephine continued walking as she pondered over her thoughts and found herself in the woods and that so much time must have passed her by as it was now getting dark, the sun had completely disappeared and all she could see were trees for miles around, suddenly she wished that Abigail was there with her so they could find their way out of the woods together and she could smile again. All of a sudden Josephine saw Abigail walking towards her and she screamed a hollow scream and ran blindly ahead, she stumbled in her panic and the nextthing she knew was she was lying face down in a large ditch. 'Oh my', she thought, all I was doing was taking a casual afternoon stroll, I NEVER THOUGHT I WOULD NEED RESCUING from a ditch in the middle of this wood.
The moral of this story is BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR as it may just come trueas Josephine had just learnt when she wished her friend was back with her and she ended up scared in the ditch.LIFE SOMETIMES HAS A FUNNY WAY OF turning out as Josephine got rescued form the ditch by a handsome intelligent young man who she swapped phone numbers with. Once out of the ditch and in human company Josephine was able to realise it had not been Abigail she had seen but just her mind playing tricks on her as often happens when alone in the woods at night.
hope this is ok, I decided to make it more challenging by doin it on the order that you put the phrases in.

Ofcourse i could here it goes...
One day a man told a lady, "becareful wat u wish for" and she said "wateva, the possibilities are endless" Then he said,"beautiful women are ruled by their face and figure more than their mind, becareful", she says, "wtf" and runs away from the man. Then a robber trys and steals her purse and the old man comes to save her and she says "i'd never thought i'd need rescueing!" than later when she goes to bed she says "Life sometimes has a funny way of doing things"
I have no clue what that whole thing was about i don't feel like erasing it though. enjoy.
