[The Count]

*Sips hot chocolate with some meds... You know, with so many Christmas specials, I'd like to see Babes in Toyland once again. The true version, the one with Tommy Kirk and Annette Funnicello.

 

[Katzi428]

listening to Sesame Street's 12 Days of Christmas where Prairie wants 3 footballs
Hey Prairie?
Yes,Kathy?watching her start to cringe when the part about the footballs comes up.
I have a different one for you than the footballs.
Prairie:OK...let's hear it.
On the third day of Christmas your true love sent to you,three piano songbooks...
Prairie:Hey...I like that! Let's see if I can think of one for you.Ummmm...Oh I know!playing piano and singing "On the first day of Christmas,your true love sent to you a ticket to go on a cruise with him. Heehee!
laughing I like that!Now if I had a true love to give that to me.
Prairie: sigh OK...OK."On the first day of Christmas, your roomies gave to you,a ticket to go on a cruise with them. Better,Miss Picky?

You know... Might have to shoot Steve a message. Sure looking forward to tomorrow night's MuppetCast... It'll focus on Christmas Eve, the special.

Storyteller: (singing, while sorting some epics) Chestnuts roasting on an open fire...
Beige: Which is a blatant violation of ten different fire and safety codes.
Storyteller: (singing) Jack Frost nipping at your nose...
Beige: A telltale sign that hypothermia is about to set in.
Storyteller: Beige, will you stop that!
Beige: Storyteller, do you realize how many popular carols have really sinister overtones behind them?
Scooter: (checking lights on tree) Yeah, there's an old joke that "Santa Claus is Coming to Town" is really about the CIA.
Erin: (taking batch of ginger snaps out of oven) And let's not get started on the "Coventry Carol."
Nora: (selecting some music to put in the stereo) Coventry's got quite a reputation. First Lady Godiva, then "Coventry Carol," then the phrase "Send him to Coventry."

*takes off headphones* Sorry. I was listening to my mp3 player. What are you doing?

Wolfgang: Arf arf arf arrrrghhhh!

Beth: *sings* Sleigh bells ring, are you listening, in the lane, snow is glistening, a beautiful site, we're happy tonight, walking in a winter wonderland.
Red: You're chipper today, it's cold outside, why are you happy about that?
Beth: I'm not happy about the cold, but look how pretty the snow is
Red: It is pretty, I just wish it wasn't so cold so we could go out and play
Beth; I understand, it might get warmer later though
Red: I suppose you're right *sits at the window while her tail wags almost like a puppy's as she eagerly waits for it to get a little warmer.*

 

[The Count]

*Arriving back from an appointment with my ophtalmologist and lunch at the R&R Deli... Hey Red, if you need excitement, you should read RedPiggy's Elder Clan fiction. That series of little adventures might suit you. Especially the end epilogue...
*Doing a bit of decorating at our cryptic candled branches with the boys. Put the pentagram over here...
Count: Mmm, I think the fang-toothed batty would be best higher up.
UD: Don't forget the one with the skull and it's twin in the grinning jack o'lantern.

As we continue, more ornaments festoon the holly leaves, along with a couple of candy canes and some intermittent lights.

BTW: For anyone who wants to, you can put your own ornaments on the dorms Christmas tree in the common room. Would've liked to make into an event with all of us there, but I know we each have different schedules and can't be here at the same times sometimes. So if you have a chance, and want to do so, hang a little something of your own or from your roomies. There's room enough for us all.
*Starts humming Our World/Brothers medley.

 

[Erine81981]

*comes running into the room* Hey guys! I'm back from christmas shopping. And you won't believe what i found at Best Buy?

Herry: What?

Frazzle: Rghawat? (What?)

Herry: That's great! When can we start watching them?

Here in a few. I'm going to take a nice hot bath and then we can start.

Herry: I'll get some snakes ready.

Frazzle: Worjggjg gjgee geer irgugg ggweoieeeggg. (And i'll get the sodas all on ice.)

 

[Muppet Newsgirl]

(gang is having cocoa, and watching A Charlie Brown Christmas - and reciting some of the lines.)

Storyteller: Get some hot water! Get some disinfectant! Get some iodine!
Everyone else: Blaaah...
Nora: 43 years and they still can't get that play together.
Scooter: And what I want to know is, does Schroeder's piano have a MIDI hookup?
Erin: Yeah, it's got an organ setting, grand piano setting, toy piano setting, you name it.
Beige: You know, my cousins used to have a pink aluminum Christmas tree. Had to get rid of it, see, because my cousin worked with magnets, and...
Storyteller: All right, Beige...quiet, now, Linus is getting ready for his big moment.

Homer Honker: *runs out of the room honking his nose*

I don't know whatever it is with honkers but they love to honk that nose of theirs. *nods head and walks off to my room*
