Green Room - Week 30 - Day 14

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

It's D-Day!!!

Your topics are due, all 6 of them - http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/574285.html

So if you see someone slacking off, and you know they don't have them finished yet, it's time to kick them in the head! Well, you should probably be kicking them in the head anyway... but that's just because... now you actually have a legitimate reason!

I'm likely to strain something if I try to kick someone's head unless they're bending or kneeling down. :o

how about if I just give them thrashings with some noodles that I have?

It's 1am here. I am too tired to kick! Can I just glare at them a little instead?

I'm a dozen hours into A Storm of Swords. Apparently I have no willpower whatsoever.

Java took a vacation day today to finish all his. I kicked him until he agreed. He's got several done already and ideas for all of them, but he needed time to write. He also needed a mental health day at work, but Idol came into play too. Happy now, Gary? I've done my job for the day.

He could have wrote this weekend, but we needed some serious chill out time. And we got it. It was awesome. We stayed in bed until noon yesterday, made some pancakes and then fell asleep on the couch for a few more hours before going grocery shopping, making dinner and watching True Blood season 4 on DVD for a bit before bed. I'm just not feeling this season as much TBH. I hope it picks up.

The weekend was great, I just wish it didn't have to end. Though at least I'm not dreading work like I used to, I just was having too good of a weekend to want it to end :)

So that's why my head's been hurting! In all seriousness, I got my second severe headache in as many days last night and went to bed relatively early. Today, I'm staying inside, drinking lots of Gatorade, and pushing through to finish up.

Was totally expecting to see topic #7 posted here. Good thing it wasn't, because I think I would have rage quit. Going to go try and finish everything now before tonight.

Gary just had to pick "vacation" when I am barely over the worst vacation of my life! I don't want to whine about it, but can't think of anything else for the topic :)

Hi all. I've been in bed (it's 11.30 here ) but J hates me and so she had me get up again. Now I'm sitting here fuming while she's gone back to sleep and I can't. Grr. Might try some Milo, or cereal.

Good luck to everyone! Hope you all manage to get your pieces in on time.

I'm too short to kick people in the head - can I just kick 'em in the knee instead? Then they'd fall down to my level, and *then* I could kick them in the head!

On the other side of the coin, I found out today that I won Employee of the Month for June. This means I got a certificate, a huge, 2-foot wide bronze metal star with "Star of the Month" written on it in gold paint pen to hang in my area, and a $10 gift card to Thornton's convenience store / gas station. It's not much, but it's the thought (and the appreciation of my peers) that counts! :)

And if they want to avoid getting kicked in the head, they can vote for Roosevelt park in
Minot -- that way they will have a good deed card and they can avoid getting a kick from Gary!
Great way to fool around on the computer during those "writer's block" moments.

Could someone please kick me in the head?

In the last 24 hours, I came up with several good ideas for the Home Game... But they are reluctant to come out of my head.

[alien-infinity.livejournal.com]

I am almost done. I have all 6(!) topics written, I'm just waiting for my beta reader to become available so she can look over my final piece.

Good luck to us all!

I'm not writing, which means I'm available for plenty of kicking... well not that I have TIME for kicking, unless you guys want to show up and let me kick you while I'm on the phone with the court. If so, come on down. The court likes to put me on hold a lot.

Got my ass kicked quite literally all weekend by the worst migraine I've had in years. Clearly I have angered the gods! Now, I am furiously writing like a bat out of hell. WISH ME LUCK, BBS!!! *flails*

Sorry Gary!

I know I was planning to sacrifice myself last turn (though I fell asleep early and forgot to send that mail.) This turn however, I need to drop out. Sorry, can't do it.

I've reached that point in my writing now where I just can't squeeze it into LJI anymore, which means that no matter how fun this is, my other stuff takes precedence. I'm 95 000 words into my new book, 'The Grey', still doing short stories, working full time, and starting up my own company... so yeah.

Gonna have to bow out here.

Best of luck to the rest of you lot!

Hello Green Room! Finals are over! I did well in everything, including the evil Solid State Physics class I was sure I'd fail. (B+! HURRAY!)

You have to have a reason for bopping people on the head?
shoot.
Well, hope all the fathers out there had a loverly fathers day.
The ex actually called yesterday and talked to his children.
for reasons I cant fathom my mother told him about my health.
Personally I feel that would improve with a difrint/stronger anticonvulsive in conjunction with a move to a location were I would not be exposed to cigarette smoke and dust from 100+ year old plaster and lathe that just happens to be discintagrateing. This house was moved to its current local 100 years ago and the plaster and lathe is original.
Bleck.
Read my stories.

Encouragement from Calming Manatee: Be brave. You can do this. (http://calmingmanatee.tumblr.com/post/24555560602)

Good luck, everyone!

OMG DONE. Holy fuck I am literally shaking. Adrenaline...shit. LOL. No words left. I need a drink.

[medleymisty.livejournal.com]

I had a horrible cold for a week and a half that killed all my energy and focus. Plus I'm feeling kind of introverted and like I want to do my own thing and be inside my own head, and process all the positive changes in my life this year - positive changes all brought by Idol, actually. But I didn't want to drop, so I forced out six entries. And they are now all done and linked, and I'm free!!!! :)

[ellakite.livejournal.com]

UPDATE:

I've posted two more Home Game entries, and intend to post 2 more in the next 24 hours. (I'll try to get them both done tonight.)

I understand the contestant entries take priority... but when you have the time, please remember us Home Gamers.

Refresh Party!
