Advent Calendar Day 9 – Who are the people in your neighbourhood?

Rocky and Zuzu took a walk through town and ran into some of the locals:

All's good in the hood.

Sister Holly Berry (Heh.) was strolling through town and stopped to see the new K9 in town. Zuzu loves to call the nun “Sistah” because she secretly watches a lot of Dog the Bounty Hunter, and wishes she could wear her hair like Beth’s. Since wigs are not allowed as part of the official p0lice uniform, she amuses herself by copying Beth’s slang instead.

Sister Berry helps in the Victim’s Unit on a regular basis, so Zuze and the Sistah are old pals.

“Hey Zuze! Did you hear the good news?” Sister Berry asked.

“What good news?” Zuze replied.

“My niece from California is here for a visit. Her name is Stacey and she’s in a “delicate condition”. Look! She bought a brand new stroller. Don’t ask me how she’s going to get it on the plane. It’s gigantic.”

“Congratulations, Stacey! Bump Watch! ”

“And speaking of new things, did you see what I was issued today?”

Zuze held up her two new items she received today and announced, “A baton and a new set of handcuffs! Thanks, P0lice Station!”

(Yah, thanks Playmobil. Sheesh. Handcuffs and a baton in the #9 package? Merry Advent, indeed. Thank goodness I have the nun and a few other things up my sleeve.)

“Oh, before I forget, I wanted to see if you’ll be able to make it to this year’s Christmas concert. It’s next week. I’ll send you the details.”

“Sounds great! Rocky and I will be there for sure.”

And lurking the background, in between shopping sprees, Joy noticed the new p0lice dog. Not good news for her – she decided to keep a low profile. But a Christmas concert? That could be very nice, indeed.

The stroller is big so I can be pushed around in it before the baby comes :o )

OMG! This is over-the-top fantastic! I’m grinning from ear to ear!! Did you say “crafty creative type” in that tag line in your banner, or “crazy creative type”? lol – totally kidding- gotta say that since you don’t know me and can’t see the twinkle in my eye!

Hey Stacey – excellent idea. I believe we’ll be using that pose at the Christmas concert!

Thanks, Square-Peg Karen! I am so glad you are enjoying the daily toys-in-the-box Advent Calendar. And you know, I really should ad crazy to my tag line somewhere! :-)

Is Joy going to be undone by a Christmas concert? She and the XMAS Bandit really aren’t criminal masterminds, are they?

And Stacey is the spitting image of Lisa from Hair & Makeup! They’re, like, doppelgangers! :D

Is Joy going to be undone by a Christmas concert?
Uh, I’m not sure? I need to see what’s in the next box before answering that. And, I know, Lisa from hair and make up. Very strange, indeed. ;-)
