Here's a holiday skit. Everybody for whom I have an active permission is in it, which is currently a list of twelve people on the HLML. As always, I'm looking for new people to tortu... err, put into my skits. Check my Skit Permission List.

If you're not listed as active and want to to be in my skits e-mail me. A lot of the people on that list gave a blanket permission to all skit authors, but that list is so I don't forget who I can write in.

Today's skit is brought to you in part by the information on the following web sites:

Como el agua me ves tan clara
Siempre puedes tu llegar a mi
(Me siento tan feliz)
Tu amor me da razon para vivir

At Jennifer Hocker's apartment. Thanksgiving Day. Jennifer's cleaning up the place for the upcoming feast.

Amanda Hocker (AH): {Comes in with a plate of brownies} Hiya sis! What, no one's here yet?

Jennifer Hocker (JH): It's still early. (You have no sense of timing)

AH: (I do too!) {Puts down food}

JH: What, brownies again? That's not very appropriate.

AH: What can I say? I'm a rebel. I'll go, uh, clean the upstairs. {Runs upstairs}

JH: {Yelling} Stay away from my Xena dolls!

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

JH: {Answering the door} Hello MC. You're early too.

The Mad Catter (MC): Like I'm supposed to care? Here. {Hands Jennifer a pumpkin pie}

JH: That looks good. I'll put it over here with the other desserts. Took you long to make it?

MC: Nah, I got it from the Sunshine Old-fashioned Bakery.

AH: {From upstairs, using her best impression} Say goodbye to your precious Gabrielle!
