Green Room - Week 10 - Day 6

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Welcome to the Black and Gold Room!!

I'm sure kithan might have a few things to say about that! But for those of you who *do* follow football, the Idol Bowl will be happening in two weeks. I am a die-hard Steelers fan, and she is a die-hard Cheesehead!

A bit closer to home though, and more immediate, is the poll currently going on - http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/417782.html

There are a LOT of entries well worth your time over there - so if you have been dragging your feet, it's time to step up for some reading, commenting and voting!!

Anyone want to suggest something that, to you, just isn't getting the attention you feel it deserves?

The Second Chancers are also assembling for their next run at the title - http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/417860.html so once you have your reading and voting done for the Main Stage, you might want to take a peak over there as well!

***

How did YOUR weekend end up going?

Any plans for the rest of the week?

First?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

haha you beat me!

[lilycobalt.livejournal.com]

It's been a good weekend for the most part, though there's been another death in my family--that's two in the last three months. :(

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I'm so sorry to hear that :(

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

First maybe?

Doubtful though. My internet is slow.

Eh oh well. Still on the first page, so that's always good.

Man, I haven't had a chance to read many entries. I do think tigrkittn deserves more attention. And of course java_fiend. Seriously, that boy should be leading the pack. I'm not biased or anything!

I will hopefully have more to suggest before the poll closes. Ugh. Where does the time go?!? I need sleep.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Awwwwwww thanks ya honey. *HUGS*

[tentaclecore]

momebie wrote some really awesome poetry this week, which is not getting nearly enough attention, imo.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Poetry never seems to get the love it deserves...it's sad really.

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Good morning all. I hope to have a rec list later; I am nearly finished.

For now, though - sleep. I have to be at the office in 6 hours.

And I have promised yet to keep.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

G'night, Sis! Sleep well! :)

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I had a pretty damn good weekend. Yesterday was especially good because I got to see some friends and also I am excited because not only did I see improv in KL, but they were some pretty top notch performers that hopefully I will get to see again. They're doing a show in July that I will have to keep an eye out for.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Yay for a good weekend! I'm glad to hear it! I heard you got a nifty new gadget this weekend too :)

[sra33.livejournal.com]

THIS weekend, because of the snow and it being my first weekend back, I lazed around in pj's, not the ones I had slept in but pj's none-the-less, and a SNUGGIE! I farmed tons of fish, pyrite, and whiptail, as well as mistletoe, AND did all my econ homework that's due tomorrow :) How did YOUR weekend go? :D

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I love lounging in my PJ's all weekend. We do that fairly often around here :D

You're on my Flist, so you know how amazing my weekend was again....though I forgot a few cute things. I might need to edit that.

But yeah, saw two movies, ate wonderful sushi, had plenty of cuddle time...awesomeness here too :)

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

I haven't read any entries apart from those on my f-list, because I am too busy trying to write something for SC which doesn't suck.

I'll be up for reading some more this evening once I'm done with this &!*# entry.

Also, I need a new default icon... suggestions, please?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Hmmm well what do you like?

I'm a fan of the group bella_sol for nifty icons.

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

I was at uni all weekend. It was ok though. I am getting used to it. And I got a few things crossed off my list of Things Which Must be Done Soon, which is also nice. And since I was broke, a friend took me grocery shopping, which was just amazing, and made me feel so supported and blessed. And even if my life is one big ball of stress right now, I am really damn lucky.

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

gee.. run on thoughts due to tiredness maybe?

[vaguelyclear.livejournal.com]

My weekend was good. Busy, but good. As for the rest of the week... we're into the second week of the Australian Open, which means late nights for me (hopefully, anyway) since it is a tradition of mine to stay up until ungodly hours of the morning watching exciting matches. I'm looking forward to it :D

Random question of the day: I think the Australian specials for Oprah aired in America this week (yes?) - did anyone watch them, and if so, does it make you (genuinely) want to visit the country? Since that was the reason why we spent millions of dollars to fly Oprah + audience out here, I'm interested to know whether it's fulfilled its purpose!

Also in regards to that - man, do I wish I had been a member of the audience. I would have loved me a pearl or diamond necklace!

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

I want to go to Australia to visit a friend there:) But I also think it is a lovely place.

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

wow.. monday 4.51pm here. Hope you get a great nights sleep, and that your monday is as great as mine was :-)

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I think half my weekend was spent at WalMart, LOL. I had to take hubby's car to get the oil changed yesterday, and my car today. While waiting, I picked up some items for Valentine's Day goody-bags for my co-workers, some new sports bras and socks for me, and a shirt for the hubby.

We saw The Green Hornet this evening, which was good but not great. Other than that, it was laundry and reading Idol entries. Whee!

Off to bed now - g'night all!

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

I spent Saturday at work - then home watching the poll and goofing around online. Today I discovered that the coworker who came to work sick last week seems to have passed her germs along to me. Bleh! So I've been hanging out with Netflix and my laptop all day - and it looks like half the night too.

*scrounges in the freezer for fudgesicles to make scratchy throat feel better*

[sweeny-todd.livejournal.com]

fudgsicles sound nice I hope they make your throat feel better. are they dairy based? they sound like they are.

[twowaymirrrors.livejournal.com]

I just spent the last hour shopping online and one store charged me sales tax. I am so not amused by this right now, even though it wasn't that much.

GR: Actual Daylight Morning Edition

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Goooood Mornin' GR! I crashed around 9 last night; hence, I missed the prior festivities :(

I'm midway through Tribe 2 on my reading right now. Many gems in both tribes. I especially like those entries which don't attack the prompt head-on :)

It is a freaking -4F here this morning. This is ridiculous. The last time it got below 0F here? Maybe when I was a kid?!? Hello, global warming!

Re: GR: Actual Daylight Morning Edition

[dreamchaser.livejournal.com]

Stay warm!!!!

[momebie.livejournal.com]

The weekend was good. A friend moved away, which wasn't good, but it was something she felt she had to do, so. The weekend was also more busy than I thought it would be, so I haven't made my way through the poll yet! I'm hoping I'll be able to do that tonight, and leave comments properly. If I don't leave comments properly, please know I'm rooting for you anyway.

YES, YOU!

[hammaboo.livejournal.com]

If only the weekend was another day or two longer....

Had date night Friday, went out playing with another friend and her girls Saturday. (for those of you that read my weekend comment about bowling, I bowled a 171 the first game and a 125 the second) Then yesterday we went to a friend's house to watch football and their daughter decided we were going to color in her Hello Kitty coloring book the whole time.

[lilycobalt.livejournal.com]

Just on a nostalgic level, I'm so glad that little girls still have Hello Kitty coloring books. I fondly remember my obsession with Hello Kitty. :)

[lawchicky.livejournal.com]

We had a busy weekend- went to my sister's basketball game and brother's pinewood derby on Saturday and then had to work and grocery shop yesterday. Also one of my friends passed away due to lung cancer, so I have to find out the funeral arrangements. I did read entries and commented/voted, so now I'll be biting my nails until tomorrow night!

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

Ugh... so sorry to hear about your friend. :(

[amazingwriter23.livejournal.com]

Hey to all! Happy Monday! 
Personally, I'm setting my sights more on Spring Training and the promise of baseball diamonds, green fields of dreams and sporting the colors Red and White with a hint of Gray. Remember my entry about "Winding Up?". AW

[lilycobalt.livejournal.com]

Spring Training is definitely something that I'm looking forward to, if only because it can't get worse.

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

Gary - I think you may have mistyped up there - the whole world is "Green and Gold" for the next two weeks! (I had to watch the game on my computer while at a performance, the fact that I didn't scream when that last interception happened is a tribute to my self-control.)

The weekend was mostly work, and last night we went to a double feature of "Cat People" and "I Walked with a Zombie".

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

We'll let you borrow it for a few weeks but the whole UNIVERSE is Silver and Black, baby!!!!

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

I plan to read/comment/vote on entries today and tomorrow if I get pulled away to do other stuff (like getting double sided tape for the stairs to keep the cat from pulling out carpet)....

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

And oh...I'm going to avoid football as much as possible - not a huge sports fan of most contact sports (NO..I'm not counting "indoor sports") plus I'll watch a game if it's not on the telly...

The commercials are usually fun to watch though...

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

G'mornin' all. I'm currently debating with myself... do Monday's *really* suck or do they just get a bum rap? I'm currently leaning toward "nope, they really do suck ass"... thoughts? :-)

Hope everybody had a great weekend. I had a perfectly lovely weekend with the perfectly lovely pixie117 of course. I'm such a lucky guy. :-)

Working my way through the entries... lots of good stuff out there.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Mondays suck ass. No question about it.

Awww I'm such a lucky girl :) it's a shame Monday has to come and destroy a perfectly good weekend!

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

You know, I have been wicked depressed about a variety of things (family, work, health, cat, etc) for weeks and it all kind of came to a head this weekend. I find that when I send out positive stuff to the world, it makes me feel better, so I'm going to spend some time today and tomorrow reading LJI entries and writing positive comments about them.

See how I am? I'm doing it more for my sake. :P

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

Also, go Packers.
