Green Room - Week 20 - Day 5

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

Seeing people come in http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/446238.html, despite LJ's best efforts not to work has been really nice. Thank you!

The overall quality, combined with the ability to push through even the site working against you, that tells me this could very well be a spectacular run to the finish! ;)
(heh, I really wouldn't start "running" yet, because man would you be tired... but you can see it in the distance from here!!)

Aaaaaaaaand I had to click refresh twice to get the GR to load after I clicked it from my email. How many times will I have to click "Post Comment" before it works? (This will be the 10th)

It is an excellent week for entries, as I've said. I'm down to 6 left to read, and have currently marked 8 pieces to rec. Holy cow. There's so much I want to vote for.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Vote for all you want, once the polls get posted! =)

As resident fat kid, I do not run. Unless I'm being chased by French revolutionaries. Or people who want to cut my head off with an axe. I'm rather attached to my head, you see.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Ditto here. No point running from people with guns, as those bullets can easily outrun my fat ass, LOL. I'm far too bouncy to run - it hurts!

Tumblr Idol would be hilarious. I feel it would turn into a scavenger hunt for the best gifs to display our feelings about the topic. Though, the state of LJ Idol participants in general can probably be summed up as:

Ah, I see this topic has already come up. I vote for "So You Think You Can Tweet."

[sra33.livejournal.com]

Amazing! It's working today! I kept getting an even more startling message yesterday. It was a 304 error and that was it. Not even a LJ background or anything. A little frightening especially when I was frantically asking for help via LJ which was down! *egads*

Can't wait to start reading the entries! Every time I have time LJ spits on me. This weekend I'll have lots of time (aside from one day to see my mom for her birthday) so I'm sure I can sneak in some good "LJ is up" time to actually read, and try to respond as much as possible! ^^

We're a hardy sort, we Idolists!

Time for tea and work. I finally finished unpacking last night and did two loads of laundry, yay. Ok, gotta head outta here for now...

[millysdaughter.livejournal.com]

I do not run, unless being chased by a large, rabid animal. For anything less, I prefer to stand and fight.

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

You should move here. We're rabies-free.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I prefer to either duck & cover, or look adorably cute and hope some guy in shiny armor sitting on a white horse comes to my rescue, LOL. Bonus points if he's wearing a kilt!

[serpentpixie.livejournal.com]

I'll run! I like running - it makes me happy, because I am strange like that ;)

[momebie.livejournal.com]

You would make an excellent companion for The Doctor. *nods*

[ecosopher.livejournal.com]

*sigh* It's months until I can start running again. I'm having to be content with a brisk walk. Which is probably just as well, really.

[serpentpixie.livejournal.com]

Months? Seriously?
Brisk walks are nicer, though - you've got more time to appreciate the scenery :)

[team-jessie.livejournal.com]

How about a jog? I've got one of those cool, double strollers for it too! Just give me half an hour to get both kids suited up and strapped in. :)

I am beginning to wonder what I've missed while on my cruise. Speaking of which, we docked at o-dark-thirty this morning and I was back on dry land by 9am.

First thing I did? Check in with Gary, who is my next destination on this vacation. The timing is all wrong to see the girls, the real reason I came to Florida, but he will be my consolation prize.

Did I miss anything interesting?

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Mainly just LJ being a complete jerk and being down most of the time you were gone. Apparently it didn't want you to miss anything :)

[lawchicky.livejournal.com]

Hope you had fun and relaxation on your cruise. You didn't miss much at all!

Hello Green Room.
Busy days!
Been preoccupied with the Red Room......That is to say, enjoying my baseball team kick some Opening Day butt and then some!
I'm also scrapping for jobs. Got an interview on Friday PM. Salary might suck though, being that its a private school, but its close to home and def worth going to check it out. Plus i have hope for something better for next year.
Ready for a nice weather weekend! AW

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

I tried to post a comment earlier but it didn't go through. Grr. I hope this one does.

Good news from yesterday: my cat came home! She was on my patio around midnight after I came home from the ER. Yes, I said ER. I was ordered by my doctor to get a CT scan to check for a benign brain tumor because of all the headaches and other stuff. I was in excruciating pain the last few days. But my head is fine as far as they are concerned. Others would beg to differ.

I could sum up yesterday as being one of the worst days of my life, but it ended well and it can only get better from here I hope!

Oh and I have to thank java_fiend for driving all the way to take me to the ER and staying late even though he had to be up at 4 am. He's such sweetheart <3

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I'm glad the CT scan was negative for brain tumors, and just as glad that the cat came home! Phew!

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

I will maintain my even pace thank you, sprinting too soon is a sure way to bonk. It doesn't feel like the home stretch yet, that's for sure.

I get to go to my TMJ doc today with a list of questions that essentially add up to - why should I stay with you for this? My jaw is still stuck and he's expensive so I need a plan in place that isn't me filling in the gaps of what he hasn't said.

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

I personally am wondering if the poll might go up a little sooner than planned because there are only 50 of us right? And all our entries are now linked (from what I can tell)

Just curious.

Insanity and chaos around my house but hopefully I can sort it out.

[comedychick.livejournal.com]

No, there's 51, we're still missing redvelvetgrrl

[joeymichaels.livejournal.com]

Do we have a "OH NOES LJ IS GONE" back up plan for LJI?

Like does it become 'Twitter Idol' or some such?

[similiesslip.livejournal.com]

Twitter Idol? I'm not sure I would like that. Twitter does NOT allow enough words (IMHO)

But I do wonder if LJ acts up again what will happen. I knew it took FOREVER for me to be "allowed" to link my entry to the topic post.
