Green Room - Week 6 - Day 3
The Idol elves have been busy decorating to celebrate the new month.
Human skulls on pikes is “Christmas”y – right?
Maybe we can put one on top of the tree, both as celebration and warning. Which is really all the same thing these days.
Speaking of warnings – the deadline to get in your entries is tonight. http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/502415.html
It’s looking pretty scary right now. When we started, there were over 50 contestants who didn’t have a bye left, which put them in danger of leaving us. The last time I checked, that number was down into the 30s of folks who were on the verge this week. Even if we end up with “less than half” – that’s still going to be a blow that will take us down to really close to the 200 contestant mark.
With another week of tribal shifts, this could be major in how this season ends up playing out. Then again, every week in Idol is major toward that goal. But given that “200” will mark the start of “Phase 2”, when things start getting interesting. . . well, I guess people had better start securing their seatbelts!

Re: wow, I'm actually here for once!
The dinner we had was at this place that was ridiculous. Swanky doesn't even begin to describe it. It started as a restaurant in Beverly Hills. Others in my group talked about running into Sylvester Stallone and some basketball player there once. The cheapest item on the menu was $50 and the sides were separate (we had king crab Mac and cheese and lobster mashed potato). The bill for 8 people? $3,000. I kinda figure that's why we aren't doing that again. There is a little thing called a recession going on after all ;)
I'm telling you, living in Southern California is like a whole different world...

Re: wow, I'm actually here for once!
My post this week actually talks about how my grad program was spoiled with ridiculous food and that's because real estate developers love fancy food. Mix that with the already shallow and wealthy OC lifestyle and it blows your mind.
I'm still blown away almost daily by these people.
