Green Room - Week 11 - Day 1

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I wrote this long post about the really positive emails that I've been receiving about the "negative vibe" that they have been picking up from other contestants and how they both had a place in the greater love of Idol... but I've talked about a lot of that stuff before, at length.

Granted, this is about the time when you start seeing people come a little unhinged and separate those who are going to hold it together and those who are going to crack under the strain... (hoping for a *really really small* class of the latter group this season). So it's really not all that surprising to see it happen.

It went into the the idea of everyone being the hero in their own story, and a bit player in other people's - and somehow dovetailed into a separate discussion on the "what people have learned from having a daughter" posts that have been popping up all over the place lately.

But then I decided that no one really wanted to read any of that from me. So instead, I'm posting some links!

Your New Topic: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/744758.html (I will say that this is something that I hear *literally* every day. It may be one of the most common terms ever in the circles that I travel...so hearing all the people who have never heard of it or think it's "weird" has been quite interesting!)
