Green Room - Week 18 - Day 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

If you asked Connie Francis, she would tell you that http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/442302.html is where the boys are right now.

By no coincidence, it is also where the girls are.

And the men, and the women and the variations in between and beyond.

The small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri are also there, and you had better believe that they are *real* small furry creatures from Alpha Centauri! You can bet your sweet bippy on that!

What else can you bet your bippy on today? Why would you be wanting to bet your bippy? What if it wasn't as sure of a bet as you thought, and you had to go around bippy-less? Doesn't sound like a good way to spend the rest of the day!

Still reading. I think I'm about on my 5th last entry left to read. Hoping to do a rec list this week because I've marked a few I'd really like to point out. But I'll leave that for the post itself rather than the GR.

Also, I apologise to theafaye for beating her to first again. At least I told her the GR was up before I started typing. Not my fault if she went offline shortly after XD

Man. I haven't even started reading yet. I'll need to get to that tonight.

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

Happy first!!!

Well in your defense...how many hours ahead of her area you??? you're probably about 15-17 hours ahead of me with her only 8 hours ahead of my time zone...

[theafaye.livejournal.com]

I really should get my priorities sorted. I took the children to the library before lunch when I should have waited for the GR. Will I never learn??? I suspect that I will never get first until I do...

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I actually got through a good chunk last night too. I didn't get any work done...but hey, at least I'll be able to (hopefully) finish tonight! I was considering a rec list too if I finish and have time.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

I start reading tonight... here's hoping I can tear off a big chunk of it!

And I don't think that apology is really sincere. :-p

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Go you for almost being done reading! \o/ I haven't even started yet.

[momebie.livejournal.com]

If I didn't have a bippy I wouldn't have anything to bet! That would be a sad state of affairs.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

To be bippty-less! Oh, the humanity!

Bippy-boppity-boo

Busy Wednesday. Things to go, people to do, places to meet.

(edit) Oh, and this furry creature appreciates the shout-out. =)

Heh, I couldn't figure out what a bippy was back then, and I still can't figure out what a bippy is now! But that's OK, I'll just do this groovy dance in the corner like Goldie Hawn used to ;)

..and gee thanks, Gary, for once again letting me fall into the "I'm showing my age" trap :p

That was my favorite show on TV, even tho so many of the jokes flew over my little head.

That's one of the things I hated about Watergate. The televised hearings of boring blah-blah-blah people preempted "Laugh-In"

I've been working with an application all day that is so slow I tell it to do something and then have time to go read an entry before it completes. This is good for my voting, which is now done. It is, however, complete pants for my productivity. I've killed 5 hours doing something that should take about 30 minutes.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

I wish I could read as fast as you!

[alephz.livejournal.com]

You can bet your sweet bippy that I'm still trying to get the hang of banging the rocks together, guys.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Why are you banging rocks together? Enquiring minds want to know!

So err..what's a bippy?

[worldofcharlie.livejournal.com]

So err..what's a bippy?

Apparently it's something you put lingerie on: http://www.bippy.com/

Though Rowan and Martin would say it to each other, so that's a tad confusing...

I don't recall there being small furry creatures in Alpha Centauri :\ Just lots of sentient fungus and mind worms.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Just lots of sentient fungus and mind worms.

Clearly, you've never really been to Alpha Centauri. Sounds like you've been in my workplace actually.

[team-jessie.livejournal.com]

Hey, did one of those nifty "Top 75" icon thingies get posted? That was my initial goal when I signed up, and I want to flaunt it via a 100x100 picture. :)

Also, I was told there'd be punch n' pie...

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

Don't you mean cookies?;)

I need to watch a lot of my Psychology class lectures today.

My 7 year old is finally getting over her strep and is back in school today.

Betting a bippy? Personally, I wouldn't bet on anything. I'm a very cynical person. Life can change in a moment and there isn't just about anything I would bet on.

But I do bet it's fun to read Idol entries:) I have read/commented on some but I plan to also do more of that today.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Glad your little one is feeling a bit better! That's a good thing.

And you can always bet on Gary being evil. Cynical or not, that's just a lock. :-p

[ravenshrinkery.livejournal.com]

Me, it's mostly housework today, some phone calls, general managing the household business type stuff. Oh, and a cranky toddler that resents the idea that I claim first dibs on my computer chair. And at least one cranky cat.

Tomorrow I have a rental lens for my camera coming in, so the next couple of Saturdays when I go hiking for my Field Geology class I can bring back nifty pictures. So I'll be doing gear inspection today because I'm particular about this kind of thing.

Oh, and correcting various financial SNAFUs. Nothing catastrophic, but I'm going to be the one wasting my money, not someone else :).

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

What do you mean you don't let your toddler claim first dibs on the chair? Isn't that what kids are for? :P

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I can also bet that when you get my high school class together (even online), there will be drama. 10 years and 2,000 miles can't seem to make them go away. I didn't like most of them 10 years ago, why would that change now? I guess I thought we all grew up. Apparently, I was wrong. I'm not shocked, I'm just reminiscing through the annoyances they are giving me. I can't make it back to the 10 year reunion, and while I was initially bummed because I thought it would be cool to show how far we've all come, I realize that some of us have come farther than others.

In other news, I made it through a big chunk of entries. I've commented on most and I'm making it a goal to comment on every entry, but no promises. If I missed you, I'll re-visit your entry. Some were long and I needed to give my brain a break last night with the headache I had, but I will read them, I swear. Good stuff out there this week. Lots of good stuff.

[tigrkittn.livejournal.com]

Wait till your 20th reunion. That one's fun. The guys are unrecognizable if you haven't seen them since high school, which is bizarre, and the women all squee about how you look exactly the same!!

My 30th is this summer. I'm not going. That's what Facebook is for.

[phoenixejc.livejournal.com]

Aw man... Elizabeth Taylor died.

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

I know, I just heard about it :( She hadn't been well for a number of years, so in that sense it isn't surprising.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Good morning GR! :) I've been having a tough time getting in here lately in the morning as work has been busy busy!

My day's off to a wonderful start; woke up late, got out the door in 20 minutes with no coffee OR breakfast. Work coffee just doesn't cut it. Not without nine sugar packets and five creamers. Then it's drinkable.

I swear I'm going to read everything this week! Somehow. And I'm going to refrain from making comments about "bippy", because like most everything else, it conjures up naughty thoughts. ;)

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

No coffee??? Oh you should have just turned right around and went on home... nothing good is going to come of that. Especially if you're forced to drink that toxic-sounding sludge. Drink it and you may grow a new head by the end of the day.

[java-fiend.livejournal.com]

Good Morning Idolers... just another day at ye olde salt mine here. I'm betting my bippy that my idiot co-worker will do something... well... idiotic today. Seems like a lock to me.

Will start tackling the entries tonight. I hear talk that there be lots o' good stuff up for the vote! Looking forward to it.

And is it Friday yet? Or better yet, is it Saturday yet? I'm still working out a few details but I have a fun, goofy, geekerific and totally dorktastic "adventure" planned for Miss pixie117 this weekend.

Hope everybody's having a good Hump Day!!!

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I'm dying to know what you have up your sleeve! Is it sad that the words goofy and dorktastic make me even more excited about the adventure? lol You know me all too well.

*hugs* you're the sweetest.

I just celebrated having a day off work and finally being over this flu, by cleaning our room. Dusting, tidying, vacuuming, changing bedclothes, the works. It SHINES.

[nyxocity.livejournal.com]

Your customs of celebrating are strange to me ;) But, YAY, shiny room!

Late Commenters League

The entries this week are really, really good. Lots of people are really stepping it up.

In other news, about half of the seedlings I started indoors have germinated! Unfortunately, it's also snowing, so it doesn't quite feel like spring.

[adoptedwriter.livejournal.com]

Got the Lady Ga-Ga song, "Born This Way" after an amazing workout!

That's OK since it's also my birfday! I'm fiddy! Hard to imagine, but here I am.

Oh, and still doing the Job Dance. Maybe tomorrow???
In the meantime passing VIRTUALLY, any food or drink treat you'd like around to all. Enjoy!

AW

[snarkerdoodle.livejournal.com]

Happy birfday! :D
