Muppet College Dorms: The Next Semester

[TogetherAgain]

Lisa: <sitting on the beanbag chair, crotcheting and singing> All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth, my two front teeth, my two front teeth. GEE, If I could only have my two front teeth! Then I could wish you Merry Christmas!
Rowlf: <looking out at the snow> Hope nobody's gotta go outside today...
Lisa: I do. I forgot to get a present for the Secret Santa thing my family's doing.
Rowlf: Nothin' like last minute shopping.
Lisa: I honestly forgot, alright? I did all my OTHER gift shopping while I was working on Black Friday. Sorry that nothing in the little outlet store was shouting, "I'm PERFECT for a retired high school science teacher!"
Rowlf: ...Little touchy today?
Lisa: ...Sorry. Haven't been sleepin' well. <resumes singing> It seems so long since I could say, "Sister Susie sittin' on a thistle!" GOSH oh gee, how HAPPY I'd be, if I could only WHISTLE! <attempts whistling> <fails miserably, as usual>
Rowlf: And that's WITH your two front teeth!
Lisa: <giggles>
Chef: <puts a tray of Christmas cookies into the oven> Hurm de stuury taledy goon?
Lisa: Oh... I haven't worked on it yet today. I should do that. Tomorrow's gonna be crazy.
Robin: Because it'll be Christmas Eve?
Lisa: Christmas Eve, yes, with the usual family party... But I'm also working from eight to three thirty, and we usually leave for Grandma's around four... <Sigh> I'll be napping in the car, if I'm smart.
Chef: ...Suu, de shancy dance de feeneesh de Christmas doo?
Lisa: ...I'm still hoping. But, like I said... I reserve the right to use all of Hanukkah.
Robin: But you're gonna try to finish on Christmas?
Lisa: Yup, that's the plan! ...To try, anyway. <continues crotcheting> <starts singing again> Oh I'm the happiest Christmas tree, ho ho ho! Hee hee hee! Someone came and they found me and took me home with them...
Rowlf: ...She doesn't look like a tree to me.
Robin: <Shrug>

Prairie:Oh no...it's not that.
Rosita:Not here either.Prairie,may I go first please?
Prairie:Okay.
Rosita: Well,since your mom and your sister will be away until really late tomorrow night,Mami wanted to know if you want to come for Christmas Eve dinner.
Prairie:Wow...I was going to ask that! Mom doesn't think anyone should be alone on any holiday.
Your mom's right Prairie.And both moms are very sweet to ask. Tell you what. Rosita...how about I come to your house for dinner.And Prairie,I'll come to your house for dessert?This way no one's feelings are hurt.
both girls nod in agreement

(sigh...I should be so lucky...My former sister in law's dad passed away Saturday morning.So my mom & sister went to NY to pay their respects.I need to stay here in Florida to watch the dog. Luckily my mom & sister will be back late tomorrow night.)

Mokey: Well, I could probably help you, I'm good with that type of thing.
Beth: That would be great
Abby: When do we open our presents?
Beth: Well, how about tomorrow morning before we all go our separate ways for the holidays?
Abby: OK!
Wanda: Sounds good to me. So you and I are going to your house, the Fraggles are heading to the Rock for the Festival of the Bells and Abby's going home to mom and dad correct?
Beth: That's the plan!

[The Count]

*Music starts.
I believe in miracles.
And I can tell you why.
Once a year, the street I live on.
Sparkles like the sky.

Kate and I: All hung with lights for Christmas.
Twinkling everywhere.
The world turns bright for Christmas.
Me: And if that isn't a true blue miracle, I don't know what one is.

Count: I believe in miracles.
I know because I've seen.
Uncle D: Once a year, the place I walk.
Is filled with trees of green.

Both: And pine cone smells of Christmas.
Floating through the air.
To Jingle Bells of Christmas.
Count: And if that isn't a true blue miracle, I don't know what one is.

All Muppet roomies: But the greatest wonder isn't what's...
Happening around you, it's the way...
You start to be.

Yes, the greatest wonder of them all is how...
Your heart is filled with love, you start to light...
Up like a Christmas tree.

Beth: Feelings feel so wonderful.
You have to let 'em show.
Kathy: Maybe that's why everyone.
Begins to get a glow.

All: And fill their hearts with Christmas.
Spirit they can share.
That's the best part of Christmas.
And if that isn't a true blue miracle, I don't know what one is.

Me, quietly : And if that isn't a true blue miracle, I don't know what one is.

Oh, here's some hot chocolate and cookies for all to share.

 

[Beakerfan]

Alex sits in the middle of her floor surrounded by paper. Some of the paper has been written on, some has been drawn on. The rest lie in crumpled balls. Alex's eyes are sunken in, her hair ratted and nearing dreadlocks. She frantically and determinedly continues to scrawl paragraphs..... sentences..... word fragments.... arbitrary drawings..... Anxiously she crumples up another piece of paper and tosses it aside.

Rizzo: Hey, I tawt finals was over?

Sweetums: *watching nervously* They ARE.... these aren't finals....

Animal: *hands Sweetums a piece of paper with a strange, dissheveled looking man drawn on it* Not good....

Rizzo: *stares at the paper* What is dat?

Sweetums: I don't know.... *drops the paper and wanders away*

Alex stops for a moment, staring at the papers in front of her. Biting her thumbnail, she softly rocks back and forth, pressing a hand against her head. She reaches for her pen then stops herself and continues to stare....

 

[The Count]

Ah... Another Saturday night at the good ol' dorms.
Alex is back? Do you believe in miracles?
*Leaves mugs of hot chocolate and number 25 cookies for her gang.

 

[Beakerfan]

Link: Anything for a beau-ti-ful young *lady*..... Heeeyyyy! Porky? Allright mister! *Now* you've gone too far. Hmph! I am NOT porky! Wait a minute - you don't think I'm fat, do you? *bites nails* Oh no! This is terrible! *looks down at himself* Hmph! Porky? I'll show YOU porky, Mister Buckwheat! *karate chops the air*

Rizzo: Back? Alex? Yeah, good one.... as you kin see from da look of tings she aint exactly all heah....

OOC: Yes Ed! Miracles DO happen lol! I'm back, for a while at least. I'm currently sort of in the middle of a lot of stuff right now, but things should be on their way back to slightly normal in a couple of weeks....

 

[The Count]

Meanwhile... *Boober Sigh smilie*
*Alone in bed: Why do I feel like this, trashing what I've accomplished so far with my counting characters and starting over at 0 again? I'm almost at 40 strong... And the little groups of five haunters each are, in my opinion, pretty much well-balanced, with a mix of master monsters and Numbervanian neighbors. Heh, I'm just not sure some times.

*Leans back to contemplate the plausibilities while nodding off back to sleep.

 

[The Count]

*Watching some football, staying updated with hopes of a Ravens win and they'll be in the playoffs.
