Green Room - Week 15 - Day 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Happy Weekend to you - and congratulations on the super sekrit wedding of Idol's own (she played a few seasons back) jeibear!

(edited to add - for those who don't know - she's also my ex-wife)

Eloping to the monorail at Disney World is never a bad thing, as long as you manage to stand clear of the doors! :)

For those still in this season of the competition, the important life event you should be focused on is of course today's deadline! http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/432323.html

Who will get the nimbus and who gets the horns???

We will see!!

***

Anything, other than that, going on? Any secret weddings, babies, alien invasions going on???

First!

:throws confetti:

The alien invasion is alive and well plotting with The Foot to render me something-or-other...

I'm sitting here on my daughter's old computer, now haphazardly hooked up in the dining room... I saw the post, jumped in to try and be first, and the computer said "No, that's okay, I'm going to take 45 seconds to open up that next page."

SO close. :)

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

yay for being first!!

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

What about secret baby invasions?

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Secret baby alien invasions?

[faerie-spark.livejournal.com]

If there are secret baby invasions, just keep them far away from me!!!!

Oh, and happy Saturday all. The cold is slowly kicking my ass less, but after a two-hour trip out of the house I'm happy to stay in for the rest of the day. Good thing I finished my entry last night.

And di d you hear me about making sure the secret babies don't invade over here?

What about secret baby invasions?
Do. Not. Want.

LJIdol gets the Horns. Always.

'Cause it's awesome. Always.

I have to have a ten thousand word short story in the science fiction genre written and posted by the twenty-eighth. Of which I have maybe five hundred words so far.

Yeah, time to lose shit is now. I'm going to be spending today and tomorrow chugging coffee, cramming sugar in my face, and possibly having a breakdown.

So in other words, totally normal weekend coming up for me~

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

Woooooo! Man oh man. That calls to mind old TV deadlines, when we'd have a 12-minute piece due for national air, 10 hours left, and no script. :)

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

No secret alien baby wedding invasions here! Too bad - my husband's ex-roommate (from a dozen years ago) called this morning saying he's going to be in town and wants to have lunch. I need an excuse to get out of it.

Horns sound much more fun ;) As long as they're not on the front of a charging bull or something...

Tell him I'm going into labour and you have to be my support person. (You don't need to mention we're on different continents - I prefer my support people to keep their distance, anyway).

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

I've corrected two misconceptions about this weekend's rehearsals by email in the 15 minutes I've been online this morning. That means I don't have to do any work today, right?

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

Still waiting on the baby, and all indications are that it's going to be human-esque, I'm afraid. Although if I go into labour, do I still have to submit my entry?

Speaking of entries, this one is SO last minute. It's after midnight here and I'm still writing. The good: I think I've missed my sleep cycle, so I'm fairly awake. The bad: missing a sleep cycle doesn't mean you shouldn't be asleep. Thus I've become rather silly and my writing might reflect that.

If you ask Gary nicely, he might give you a bye for the one week of having the baby. The first time I gave birth during an Idol season, I was allowed to have that week off. Second time around, I had to be two weeks late to be allowed time out of Idol (on the basis that the season was about to finish).

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

No sekrits here that I know of. Then again, if it were sekrit, I might not know it...but I had a sekrit surprise at Disneyland at Monday and I think that's the only sekrit this week, which is fine because it was a dang good surprise :)

I'm going through some very strange anxiety attacks like I've never experienced before. Nothing is stressing me out, my life is good...but for the last few days, I've felt panicy for no good reason. I couldn't sleep last night and woke up early this morning freaking ou. I'm not sure what to do about it.

My entry is written, feedback received and I'm not sure I can focus on it with the panic attack going on :( we shall see if it gets posted. I have another bye, I just hate using it with an entry almost done. But I don't post things I'm not proud of in some way. If it doesn't feel complete to me, it'll add more anxiety and I'm not sure I can handle much more of that. So we shall see.

We heard rumors of an alien-like invasion, but sadly, nothing ever arrived. My husband was very sad and is pouting. Just in time to load 'im up and haul him out to gratefuladdict's place for the afternoon!

And it would be cute if there were a secret wedding there today, so I will dress appropriately for a casual affair. (This means putting on clean jeans.) I am prepared for a lack of surprise wedding, too, of course, and will arrive with Catchphrase in hand.

Well my son is competing (Again) in the cub scout derby.

My husband (again) had no time to help him with his little derby car. Which makes me sad because all the father/sons bond over this.

One year he bought him one off ebay (which I think it illegal according to derby rules)

One year he didn't get to participate due to his grandma's 70th birthday party.

And one year another dad took pity on him and make him a car.

So this year I took my invisible do-not-exist carpentry skills and made one with him. Another dad gave us a nice kit which I really thank him for.

It's not a great car but I did do my best. It won a few practice runs and, while I would like him to win the thing, I hope he at least places. Because if he doesn't, I PERSONALLY feel responsible this year.

It would mean so much to him to even just get 10th place. Anything to get on the list.

There's a kid who makes fun of him every year because this kid places and my kid never does and frankly I'd love to beat that kid.

I know that sounds mean. But this kid is always trying to get my son in trouble and tried to beat up my daughter when she was 5 so I REALLY just want to say (mentally) "Nana nananana!" What kind of older boy tries to beat up a much younger girl? He's...strange.

But, probably my son won't win anything and I will spend tonight sad that I have "failed" him yet again.

Most of the dads in the group are engineers so we only have a slim change but man, I would really, really like my son to place. I spent hours on that little car with him!

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

By the way, "beat" that kid means have our car beat his. I do not beat children.

I spent all yesterday at Hogsmeade in honor of the topic. I even bought a wand so that I could come home and bust out an entry at the last moment. It worked!

Congrats on the wedding. I hope everyone in the wedding party wore these shirts. They kind of make my life, since they're the only Spanish I really know, on account of having lived in Orlando for 9 years now, and worked at Disney for three of those.

[awriterswindow.livejournal.com]

Ha. I have one of those, only I got mine before Disney started making them...so it's not an official Disney one! :)

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Working on my entry, should be posting it very soon.

No sekrit alien invasions here!

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

*waves* and tiptoes around the room... :)

Life's been on fast forward since we've been working...

Today is my wife's birthday! Happy birthday Mrs. The Wife Michaels!

I ended up writing two and a half pieces this week and finally settled on one last night, and finally finished it this morning. So, that was kind of my big deal.

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Happy Birthday kittymichaels's Mom!!!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Aaaaaand.... it's posted! Whew.

Now to head out to the store for a few items, then hubby and I will be getting together with minikin and her hubby for a 5pm showing of "Just Go With It" then dinner afterwards.

Back in a bit!

[serpentpixie.livejournal.com]

I have the plague and it is all java_fiend's fault.

Today, instead of redrafting my play, I spent ALL DAY making a video for this week's entry. Oops?

Also, I have no sekrits as far as I know :D

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

Yay another video! I look forward to seeing it :D

[pen-name.livejournal.com]

I think the GR deserves some bitchen horns.

I have eaten five different chocolate products today. I thought that needed mentioning.

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

Mm...what were there? Now I wish I had some chocolate:)

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I have been having fun this weekend:
a) reading Idol entries
b) looking at corsets with pixie117 and lawchicky (I think I'm going to buy two)
c) attending an Indian wedding for one of my husband's colleagues who he didn't remember the name of
d) playing Beatles Rock Band and filming my eldest singing

[mstrobel.livejournal.com]

I want a corset!
