Gold Stars - Week 13

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Why is it that people don't talk about leaving the park? There's too much drama at the park - I don't want to go there anymore??

Heh, that's really nothing to do with Idol, ok, not much with Idol just something that's been on my mind.

It's the people at the park. It's the people on Livejournal - or at work or...

It's all how you decide how to deal with them.

Some of the people are folks you will like. Some are people that you won't.

Heck, some are people that you will like until you decide that you don't!!*G*

Anyway, here are some people that I think deserve some extra attention this week, not that some of them need any extra attention *cough*.*G*

worldofcharlie
mme_furiosa
ewok_626
kathrynrose
gnomeangel
dragonfluff


Congratulations.

There are a lot of really good entries this week, but one stuck in my head for the last couple of days. This is something I've debated, not wanting to put myself too much into the process and I WILL say that I haven't read anything that was posted last night (so there might be something just as incredible or even more so) - but I wanted to draw some extra attention to porcelain72's entry this week. I just have to say there's a hell of a lot of courage out there and I'm seeing more and more of it every week by all sorts of people.

::wink::

[porcelain72.livejournal.com]

Oh, wow. I'm humbled and flattered. Thank you very much.

Heh, I figure if nothing else, it'll make everybody else feel better about their younger geeky selves for a little while. ;o)

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

You deserve it, really and truly.

Wow! Thanks!

[sushimustwrite.livejournal.com]

Congrats on your first gold star! Join the club!

Congrats all!

I agree about porcelain72's entry. It is hard hitting but don't ignore Ewok626 entry either.

In reality there has not been a flat one in the group.

I am really nervous about this weeks vote because I am concerned that since I am the first entry then people are going to forget or dismiss what I had to say waaaay back on Monday.

(Edited for incredible bad grammar because I can't think before coffee)

I was going to say the same thing re the entries.

I don't know about everyone else, but when I re-read entries I start back at the very beginning of the list so that everybody gets a fair shake :)

[ewok-626.livejournal.com]

*nods* That entry was really hard for me to write.

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I agree on ewok_626's. That one hit hard too.

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Congratulations everyone!

*throws confetti*

[ewok-626.livejournal.com]

I like you too! :^)

Wear those gold stars proudly

[desert-rose.livejournal.com]

Because you all really deserve them!

Congratulations!

I'm awake!!!

[ladyozma.livejournal.com]

So I think I might be alive... LOL

I'm working on finishing my entry for this week. How is it Friday already?????

Re: I'm awake!!!

[ladyozma.livejournal.com]

And apparently not awake enough to remember my whole comment! Yay for you gold star peoples!!!! Well deserving gold star peoples!!! :)

*throws confetti*

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

Nice group! Strangers in good company, there.

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

Agreed. :)

[ewok-626.livejournal.com]

Thank you, Gary. :^) I really needed that today.

I just took the puppy in for "teh operation of d00m" aka neutering, so think of him today. He will be "Mr. Conehead" for the next week or two. (Yes, I will post pics!)

Off to work now... 10-6 shift with no internet access. O.M.G. it's going to be a long freakin day.

*sets out bacon, eggs, and waffles before scampering off to work*

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

Dagnabbit, woman, whenever you guys mention bacon, I end up craving it for days. DAYS, I tell you!!!

Thanks for breakfast, though. I needed it.

Tea and cakes at my place this afternoon?

I sat at my computer after reading porcelain72's entry and bawled. For the vulnerabilities she showed, the bravery of her openness, and the way that it allowed us all to think back to those times in our life that have scarred us (even if we are adults now). I thought it was brilliant too!

Brilliant?

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

And how!

[dragonfluff.livejournal.com]

Yay! Gold star!

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

One you richly deserve!

Peeps.

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

Good choices for Gold Stars. WTG, peeps! :)

[imafarmgirl.livejournal.com]

Cool. I haven't read hers yet. I will look forward to doing so as soon as I get home from work and put on a pot of nice hot beef soup. mmmmm.

[sushimustwrite.livejournal.com]

Congrats to the gold stars! And I haven't read porcelain72's entry yet. I'll get to that.

[mme-furiosa.livejournal.com]

I have no idea what I did to deserve this, but it really feels good to be able to still participate from abroad.

Also, porcelain72's entry was incredible. Worth every vote and then some.

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

I can't wait to read it either! :-) EVERY one I've seen so far has been something special.
