Green Room - Week 21 - Day 1

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

The DOOM has passed, and the survivors are still huddled under whatever bits of debris were large enough to use as cover, watching, and waiting to make sure that it doesn’t decide to swing back in their direction. They remember when this month started, when they were the Top 100, laughing in their carefree and innocent way, with no true idea of what was approaching.

Once they feel confident enough to poke out of their holes, it comes time to assess the damage and see who else is still in one piece.

The Gatekeepers http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/550342.html were the latest storm to ravage the countryside http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/550461.html

But there is very little time to relax, for they need to find a partner in this post-Doom world: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/550964.html and divide their new work load: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/550720.html

Those who didn’t make it, but still want to have some fun with the new topics, have the Home Game, http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/551222.html

But what no one could predict, was what was about to happen, that would change their lives forever…

7 years ago we lost the best friend a koala bear ever had. RIP Mitch Hedberg.

Frist?

FRIST!

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

That's crazy. I just stumbled in here.

And, I'm without an intersection partner. My caveat is that I tend to work on an idea with someone, then just write and send. I'm probably not much fun as a partner.

Well, you know what I mean. Heh.

POST-DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

[xreesex.livejournal.com]

I am honestly surprised I wasn't out, my post was the definition of last minute, chock full of typos, and not very good. I'm thankful to still be here.

I need a partner! =(

The next chapter...

The stumbly "frists" are the best kind!

I have a partner, but we are still hashing out our idea. My brain is not working so well this morning because I stayed up too late for dooooooom last night.

CONGRATS ON THE "FRIST" WITHOUT EVEN TRYING!

ps: you're dead to me now.

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Knowing Gary though, don't get comfortable just yet...

[ellakite.livejournal.com]

What good's an Apocalypse if you can't enjoy yourself afterward?

[n3m3sis42.livejournal.com]

Don't worry... I'm not. :D

[n3m3sis42.livejournal.com]

I am in awe, too. :D

[drjeff.livejournal.com]

I was alive to you before? heh

[ellakite.livejournal.com]

In awe here, too.

[n3m3sis42.livejournal.com]

It's okay, we have cookies over here in the "Dead to ellakite club". ;-)

[ellakite.livejournal.com]

I responded to your posts, didn't I?

Then again, I respond to posts to people who are "dead to me", too. It would be disrespectful of me to do otherwise...

I think Gary just has it in for me this season - got eliminated one week too early to reach the coveted 100 week mark, and one week too late to be a Gatekeeper. This season is hereby FIRED. So there!

All I need now is a Frist, and it'll be complete.

So I just started walking in my office building and I realized I had my parking card still in hand. Considering I need it to get out of the gates of Hell (err I mean my office parking lot) and that I'm likely to lose it if I don't keep it in my car, I decided to run it back down. No biggie except I then try to get in the wrong car which was running and someone was in it. They were similar colors I guess, but looked nothing alike. I can tell today is going to be interesting. I started the day trying to hijack a car, what else can I expect? :)

This weekend makes me tired just thinking about it. The cable gods are installing TV for me on Sunday (after ten years without it) and I have 8 hours straight of back to back roommate interviews. The good news is I got a great response. The bad news is I get overstimulated when dealing with large amounts of strangers and making important decisions too. I think it's almost too early to find someone because a month gives them just enough time to back out at the last minute (I had three people in a row do this the last time).

I almost sacrificed last round because I'm not sure how I'll get an entry written. It's one reason I went the easy route and picked someone I'll be seeing all weekend anyway. I couldn't imagine someone depending on me when I won't have computer access most of Friday night (I'm steam cleaning the carpets. I have to clean up after my current roommate to), Saturday (Java and I are going to be in an urban race out of town) and Sunday (cable guy and roommate interviews until bedtime).

So yeah.... Not the best weekend to be my partner. Poor Java :P

And I just wrote a novel for a comment. Wow.

[noodledays.livejournal.com]

I wish you luck (whichever kind you wish) in pursuit of that triumvirate. ;)

[pixiebelle.livejournal.com]

Good because just as you settle in... He will attack.

[alien-infinity.livejournal.com]

Yet another Idoler who's in awe over here!

[alien-infinity.livejournal.com]

Congrats on your FRIST! ^_^

[noodledays.livejournal.com]

I made it late to the results post, so I'll take a minute here to say what fun I've had - I enjoyed the challenge in writing every week, and it was such a bonus to read so many other noteworthy, wonderful entries.

good luck to all of you going forward! and I'd be more than a bit remiss if I didn't say how fantastic Gary is for organizing and running this crazy show so stalwartly for such a long time.

So, don't be "FRIST!" Being "FRIST!" is a conscious choice, one that you have complete control over.


and even if you become "frist." anyway, you get cookies for it. that's a pretty good deal...
