Posts: 1316 (11/27/06 2:22 AM) fanfic girl night owl Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Hi everybody! EDIT: Thanks to Sally for the title Suggestion! It's going to be about each of the Monkees being invited seperately for a Thanksgiving meal...each one accepts on behalf of the other three...and now somehow they gotta eat four meals in one day! Laura, or whoever else wants to help, is welcome to do so! Here we go... It was a few days before Thanksgiving and the Monkees were preparing to go out for the day. Each of them had someplace to be, and once they were ready, they met by the front door. Peter had a book in his hand. "Ok, here's the plan." Micky said, "I'll drive each of you over to where you gotta go and I'll pick you up in two hours. How's that?" "Sounds like a plan." Mike nodded. Peter and Davy agreed and so the guys went over to the Monkeemobile and got inside. Micky started the ignition and the car took off. The first place Micky went to was a house near the University. This was where Davy's girlfriend Melissa was living. Davy hopped out of the car before it came to a complete stop. "Thanks, Micky!" He shouted as he ran over to the house. "Two hours, Davy!" Mike reminded him, "We have a gig tonight!" "Yes, Papa Nez." Davy replied, smoothing his hair down before knocking on the door. Melissa opened the door and quickly pulled Davy inside. The other three Monkees just chuckled as Micky pulled away from the curb. The next stop was the library, where Micky deposited Peter. "Remember Peter, two hours." Mike said. "I won't forget, Mike." Peter replied. "Say Peter," Micky asked, "I never did find out what book you had checked out." Peter held up the book. It was a copy of Grimm's Fairy Tales. "There was some great stories in here." Peter replied, "Now I think I'll check out the Dr. Suess books next." "Have fun, Peter." Mike said, as Micky drove away. Peter waved at the retreating Monkeemobile and went into the library. The third stop was the Groovy Music Store. This was where Mike was let off. "Can you get me another set of drumsticks while you're there, Mike?" Micky asked. "What happened to the last set I got you?" Mike asked, leaning into the car. "I used them to smash a cockroach." Micky replied. Mike rolled his eyes. "Ok, one set of drumsticks coming up." "Thanks Mike," Micky replied, "I hope you can find those guitar strings you're looking for." "Thanks Micky." Mike replied, "See you in two hours." He pulled his torso out of the car and went into the store. Micky waved and drove off. Micky's final destination was a house in a quiet residential area of the city. Pulling into the driveway, Micky shut off the car. As he was getting out, he was immediately attacked by two young girls about ten and twelve. "Micky!" They shouted. "Hi, runts!" He laughed giving his sisters a big hug. "Mom home?" "Yeah, she's waiting for you!" The older one said. The girls took his hands and led him inside. To Be Continued... Lisa, the Glick Chick!

Two hours later, Micky picked up his bandmates from their meeting spots. He first met up with Mike. "Hey Mike, I got some great news," said Micky. "What's up Mick?" asked Mike. "Mom invited us to her place for Thanksgiving." "Uh, that's nice Mick." "What wrong?" "Well, my friend at the music shop Steve just invited us to have dinner with him and his wife." The next stop was to get Peter. "Hey Peter, we just got two invitation for Thanksgiving," said Mike. "Really?" asked Peter. "Yeah, the owner of the music shop, and my Mom," said Micky. "You better make it three invites." "What do you mean?" asked Mike. "Well, I met Valerie at the library, and she invited us to have Thanksgiving at her house. The final stop before headed back to the pad was picking up Davy. "Hey guys great news, said Davy, hopping into the Monkeemobile, "Melissa just invited us to have Thanksgiving dinner with her and her folks." "We must be very popular today," said Peter. "Why do you say that?" "We got three other invation today," said Mike. "Now we have to decide which one to go to," said Micky. That's all for tonight I hope I'm taking the story in the right direction Lisa Mickys411 (Laura)

They sat down in the living room to decide which invitation to accept. "I think we should go to my Mom's house." Micky said, "I know she'll give us a feast to remember." "But Steve has been very nice to us." Mike replied, handing Micky his drumsticks, "He's always given us a discount on our stuff." "But I want to be with Valerie for Thanksgiving." Peter pouted, "She said Rodney is in Europe and won't bother us." "Melissa's a great cook." Davy said, smiling. "Plus, she's going to have some of her groovy-looking girlfriends over too." "Well, we can't go to all four dinners." Mike stated. "We have to just go to one." "My Mom asked me first." Micky said. "No, Valerie asked me first." Peter shot back. "No, Melissa asked me..." Davy said. "Wait, we don't know when each of us was asked." Mike said, holding up his hands. "We'll just assume we were asked the same time." "So how do we decide?" Davy asked. "Let's draw straws." Micky replied. The Monkees went over to the kitchen, where Mike grabbed some paper and pens. Going off in different direction, the Monkees quickly drew straws. "Time's up!" Mike announced. The guys went back to the kitchen table and showed their straw drawings. Davy's straw was the shortest. "Story of my life." Davy complained. "Call Melissa, and tell her we can't come." Mike said gently. "Okay." Davy said with a frown on his face, walking over to the phone. Davy dialed Melissa's number and waited for her to answer. "Hello?" Melissa said. "Hi Melissa. It's Davy." "Hi honey, what's happening?" Melissa asked. "Err...sweetheart, we can't come to Thanksgiving dinner." "Why not?" Mellisa asked after a few seconds' pause. "It seems we were invited by other people for Thanksgiving dinner as well." Davy said. "So cancel their dinners and come over here." Mellisa said, getting angry. "I can't." Davy replied quickly, "We drew straws and I lost." "So it's all a game to you, is that it?" Melissa demanded. "No, of course not." Davy said. "I thought you loved me, Davy Jones!" She started to sob. "Oh, Melissa don't cry, we'll come. Davy said. "We'll be there." "Promise?" Mellisa said with a sniff. "I promise." Davy said, looking over at his band mates. "Ok, goodbye." Melissa replied, brightening up. "Goodbye, see you Thursday." Davy said, then hung up the phone. He walked back over to the others. "I'm sorry, fellas." Davy said, looking down. "It's ok, Davy." Micky said, "I know you can't stand to hear a woman cry. I'll call my Mom and cancel our dinner there." Micky walked over to the phone and dialed his Mom's house. To Be Continued... What will Micky's Mom say? I don't think she'll be too pleased with her son, either! Lisa, the Glick Chick! The Glick Chick's Monkees' Lair! and now The Glick Chick's Monkees' Lair too!

"Hell-o?" asked a child-like voice. "Hell-o, who am I speaking to," asked Micky with a chuckle. "It's me Micky, Gina," his sister answer back. "I knew it was you." Micky enjoyed teasing his little sister. "Is Mom there?" "Yes she is." Gina then put the phone on hold to get their Mom. "Hell-o Micky?" his Mother said on the other end. "Hi Mom, listen there's been a change of plans, and I don't think the guys and I will be able to have Thanksgiving over at the house," said Micky. "I understand that you have other plans," said Micky's Mom, sounding a bit disapointed. "Is something wrong?" Micky asked. "Well, I just found out your Aunt Lily,Uncle Jack and cousins are coming in from Texas this year, and they're looking forward to see you." Micky began to feel guilty, after all this was family. "Mom, I can always cancel my plans and come, and I'll make sure Davy,Peter and Mike do the same." "That's wonderful, said his Mom, I better go now and get the house ready for the guest. See you Thursday, love you." "Love you to Mom, bye," said Micky before hanging up the phone. "What happened?" asked Davy. "I got relitives coming in from Texas, I have to be there," Micky answered. "Who's going to be the next person to call?" asked Mike. Mike,Micky and Davy then turned to Peter. "Did I do something wrong?" asked Peter. "You knoew what you gotta do man," said Mike. Peter then picked up the phone. What will happen next? Mickys411 (Laura)

With a heavy heart, Peter dialed Valerie's number and waited for it to be answered. As he expected, a man answered, one of Valerie's butlers. "Hello, Cartwright residence." He said stiffly. "Hello, this is Peter Tork, may I speak to miss Cartwright, please?" "One moment." The butler replied. A few seconds later, Valerie was on the other end. "Hello, Peter!" She said happily, "How are you?" "I'm fine, Valerie." Peter replied, "But I have some bad news." "What is it?" Valerie asked, sounding concerned. Peter took a deep breath before answering. "I just found out that my friends and I have been already invited to another Thanksgiving dinner. I'm sorry, but we'll have to cancel." "But Peter, I've already made the arrangements and told all my friends you four would be there!" Valerie replied. "I'm sorry dear, but..." "Peter, my family's hired Europe's best chefs to help prepare the dinner." Valerie continued in earnest, "It's really going to be great...and I want so much to be with you." "And I want to be with you, but..." Peter tried to say. "So you'll come?" Valerie asked hopefully. "Yes, I'll find a way. So will Micky, Mike and Davy." Peter replied. "Oh that's great, Peter." Valerie said happily, "I'll see you guys on Thursday. I love you." "I love you too, Valerie." Peter replied, then hung up the phone. He looked over at his friends. "Um...well...I tried to." Peter said. "We know, Peter, we know." Mike said shaking his head. "How on Earth are we gonna eat four dinners in one day?" Davy asked. "Three dinners, Davy." Mike corrected, "I'm going to call Steve and tell him there's no way we can come to his house. And I mean it." Mike walked over to the phone and dialed the number. After a few rings, his friend answered. "Hello?" "Hi, Steve, this is Mike Nesmith." "Oh hi, Mike!" Steve replied, "Boy am I glad you called." "Why's that?" "I wanted to tell you that I'm going to have some real important record execs and club owners at my house for Thanksgiving." Steve replied. "Record executives and club owners?" Mike gulped. "Yeah, I was just about to call you and tell you." Steve replied, "I've told them about the Monkees and they're interested in talking to you four. This is gonna be a great chance for you guys!" "Yeah, that is a great opportunity..." Mike said slowly. "So how can I help you, Mike?" Steve asked, "Did you need something?" 'A time machine' Mike thought to himself, but out loud to Steve he said, "Oh...I just forgot what time you told us to come over." "Six O'Clock, Mike." Steve replied. "Is that alright with you?" "Yes, that's fine, Steve." Mike replied, "We have a few other things to take care of, so six O'Clock is ok." "Great, see you Thursday!" Steve replied. "Yes, see you Thursday." Mike said then hung up the phone. He walked back over to the others. "I thought you said you were going to tell him no way." Micky said, folding his arms. "He's gonna have some record execs over for dinner too." Mike replied, "I can't miss this chance for us to be noticed." "Just like I can't stand to hurt Melissa." Davy added. "Or disappoint my Mom." Micky put in. "Or let Valerie down." Peter said. "Fellas, what are we gonna do?" Mike asked. To Be Continued... What indeed? This might call for some scheduling! Lisa, the Glick Chick!

Actually I remember an episode of "Dharma and Greg" that has this same storyline. I think they were at one place for appetizers, one for a meal and one for dessert. Nora

Posts: 1316 (11/30/06 3:15 AM) fanfic girl night owl Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Thank you, Laura! I just want to nudge the story a little... The guys just looked at each other, with no idea of how to do four Thanksgiving dinners in one day. "How can we be at Valerie's house, Micky's Mom's house, Mellisa's house and Steve's house at six O'clock?" Peter asked. "We have to be at my Mom's house at three, Peter." Micky replied. "Melissa said to come at four." Davy added. "Valerie always has dinner promptly at five." Peter said. "And Steve told us to be there at six..." Mike mused. Suddenly, the same idea hit all four Monkees at once! "We can still go to each dinner!" They shouted. "We'll just stay for a little bit at each one, then end up at Steve's house!" Mike exclaimed. The four danced around in a circle, happy to have a plan. To Be Continued... Lisa, the Glick Chick! The Glick Chick's Monkees' Lair! and now The Glick Chick's Monkees' Lair too!

"I'm sure it will," said Mike. "How many days do we have before Thanksgiving?" asked Peter. Micky picked up a calender and said,"We have one week." "Groovy, that means we have plenty of time to figure out how to schedule out time at all these places," said Mike. "And how to do without nobody knowing," said Davy.

Posts: 1316 (12/01/06 3:13 AM) fanfic girl night owl Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	Thank you, Laura and Rachael! Mike looked at his watch and noticed it was getting late. "Hey, we'll have to start planning this tomorrow." He said, "We gotta get to the Cha Cha Club." With that, the guys went to change into their stage uniforms and get ready for the gig. The next morning, the Monkees sat around the kitchen table to plan their Thanksgiving day attack. Mike had a gavel in his hand and he banged it on the table. "This meeting will now come to order." Mike said, "We have to get 'Operation Turkey' planned." "My Mom's house is first." Micky said, "We'll have to start there." "Do you have any plan to get us out of there in time to make it to the next dinner?" Mike asked. "My Aunt and Uncle are kinda picky eaters." Micky replied, rubbing his chin, "So...if they don't like something, I was thinking of volunteering us to go out to the store to get something else." "Then don't come back." Davy finished. "Exactly!" Micky smiled, then his smile faded. "I don't really like doing that to my Mom, but at least we'll have some dinner." "Right, we should only eat a little at each place." Peter put in. "What's your plan, Davy?" Mike asked, "Melissa's house is next." To Be Continued... AHHH!! Writer's block! Lisa, the Glick Chick!
