sitting in a daze listening to Mannheim Steamroller's "Silent Night"
Prairie:Kath...hey Kath..waving her hand in front of my face
I make a motion to wait a second,then sigh as the music ends
My gosh Prairie...I love that SO much!
Prairie:Yeah...I could tell!You looked like your mind was far away!
Yeah..it was...kind of.
Prairie:Hey don't be embarrassed! That happens to me too. Want to talk about it?
Well..yes and no.There's two parts but I'll only tell you about one. I just imagined myself ice skating to that. Without falling flat on my rear end that end,that is.
Prairie:Aww...that's nice. You sure you don't want to talk about the second one?It's just us here. I won't tell anyone else.
Well,I would,but it's kind of silly.And it makes me a little sad.
Prairie:OK..I won't force you.
Thanks for understanding. So you ready to watch "Elmo's Countdown To Christmas"?
PrairiesighI guess
What's the matter?As if I didn't know? Look Prairie,Rosita will be on there.And so will The Count! It's not
entirely Elmo,you know.
Prairie:You're right.That part with The Count & Ty Pennington is funny!
Grover & Rosita come in
Hi you two!Cold out there!
Rosita:Not as cold as it was this morning,thank goodness!
Grover: I nearly froze my cute little pink nose off!
Awwww!There's some hot chocolate inside if you want some. I've kept it warm for you.
Rosita:Ooh..gracias Kathy!
De nada Rosita. In a little while we're going to watch
Elmo's Christmas Countdown all right?
Rosita:Oh good!I loved being in that!
Grover:I guess I will watch too.
Anything wrong Grover?
Grover:Well...I used to be the cute and adorable one on Sesame Street.Then along came Elmo. Now nobody thinks of ME as being cute and adorable! I do not get my own TV specials.
Grover...c'mere.
Grover :Yes?
OK...first of all,
I still think you're cute and adorable.Second of all,the special isn't
all Elmo,like I told Prairie. I'm watching it to see Rosita,The Count & Ty Pennington. Remember what happened with The Count and Ty?
Grover starts laughingOh yes!I DO remember!
Good! So we'll all watch together.
Prairie:I still think you're cuter too Grover.
Rosita:Me too!
Just don't tell Elmo,OK?You don't want to hurt his feelings.
Grover:I won't.Oh you girls are so sweet!hugging us
