Final Green Room of Season 7
Jul. 20th, 2011 08:30 amLike Rupert Murdoch listening in to all of your phone conversations, all good things must come to an end.
So must it be for Idol Season 7.
It's almost time to leave the Green Room and be escorted, by armed flying monkey guards, down to the Banquet Hall to crown our next winner http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/482510.html.
Given how the poll has been since going up, and how unpredictable the last few hours have been all season long, it is anyone's guess who that will end up being! So make sure to get out and support your favorite(s), or rather, the one you like a tiny bit more - because all three of them are top-notched!!
***
Speaking of top notched, and Season 7, there was someone who showed up this season that had Life not hit, would have been with us much longer. It's the nature of the beast, and something that every veteran of Idol has either personally dealt with, or seen, first hand over the course of seasons.
For those who remember
sunnybananas - you know what an incredible writer she happens to be - for those who don't, after the season is officially over, go back and read her introduction. She didn't stay long, but I had high hopes for her if she was able to get over that initial hump.
My reason for mentioning her specifically isn't just to talk about the depth of talent this season. She has apparently been in the ICU for the past couple of weeks and her family has fallen on some difficult times. Some of her friends have gotten together and have started a fund to help her out.

Boost the signal on this please. Boost it far and wide, and if you are in a position to help out - give to help one of our own. Thanks.

With that, say goodbye to the Green Room. One by one, the lights are going out and staff is just outside the door waiting to come in and spray everything down with a pressure hose to get to the deep cleaning this place needs after housing you folks for so long! ;P
The Banquet Hall is down the hallway and two doors on your right. Don't worry, you won't get passed the activated traps, so it's not like you can get to anywhere else in the compound!
I'll see you there later!

Time flies.

What's the procedure for that?

In the end... the love you take... is equal to the love... you make

One last dip into the teeming world of old pool renovation. :)

Date: 2011-07-20 04:31 pm (UTC)I'll be sad to see the last of this Green Room. Even though green isn't my favorite color, it does start to grow on you... or is that just moss? Hmm...
Off to a doctor appointment in a bit for my quarterly endocrinology follow-up. I hope I've maintained a bit of the weight loss that I had while at the fitness ranch three months ago - Doc K loves to see the numbers on the scale go down!

So, yay everyone who participated, but most especially yay Gary!

no subject
Date: 2011-07-20 10:36 pm (UTC)And wow. I had a 2 month old when this season started. Now I have to keep getting up because he's crawling on his hands and knees, finally picking up his tummy instead of dragging it, to tear him away from our CDs that he so loves pulling out.

Date: 2011-07-21 12:22 am (UTC)I've had such a great time with Idol this year, and I'm really glad that, although Life did happen for me, I didn't let it stop me from playing (I am stubborn) because I achieved much more than I thought I would - or could - and I've made some really great friends along the way. So, yay for that! :D
Late Commenter League: It's OK, I'll get the lights on my way out
Date: 2011-07-21 01:59 am (UTC)I guess there's only one more thing to say (http://youtu.be/dSCvvn5Hn4w?t=35s).
(And I think what DLR meant to say in that video is that people really do win at LJ Idol -- never trust rock stars to get these things right) =D
