Green Room - Week 8 - Weekend Edition

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I haven't opened it yet, but I did see the "preview" of it and know that I currently have an email in my inbox telling me that I have a check for $800,000 waiting in my name! I don't know the guy, and I imagine that I will have to send some sort of verification, but whoo hoo! It's only a matter of time before I can say "So long, suckers!" to you lot and go live out the life of a Hundred-Thousander!

I won't forget you little people. Well, OK, I probably will.

In the meantime though, I'll pretend like I care and ask "What are you doing this weekend?"

and by that I mean "Other than writing and reading entries": http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/671853.html because really, that should be your Top Life Priority!

I realize that I rarely ever say, "Hey! These topics are awesome!"

BUT

These topics suck. Seriously.

The BAMF topic is so specific that I'm just - What?!? = So as far as I'm concerned, it's not even on the list.

The alcohol topic only brings up memories of injuries and hospitals. I'm not loving the thought of writing (or reading) sick-bed stories this week.

I have written a nonfic entry for When I was Young, but I'm afraid it's going to be one in a series of similar entries and lose points for originality. I may not use it at all.

The Heart of Time topic - I want to think of something that doesn't sound like syrupy romantic crap or five gallons of cliche'. Actually, I've had a very hard time getting the Tin Man from The Wizard of Oz out of my head over that one, though I haven't thought of anything clever to do with it.Also, I've unfortunately had the Tin Man song by America stuck in my head because of it, and the lyrics of that song make no sense.

I'm sure that there are a zillion things I could write about for design flaw, but I'm having a hard time thinking of them, except for the dangly bits of men being on the outside, and I'm not sure everyone would appreciate my opinions on that subject. But I haven't completely ruled it out. :P

I'm only not a fan of the BAMF topic because of who submitted it. The only way I could even tackle that topic is through meta and an indirect link -- ie, talking about the person who submitted the topic.

Hm, sick-bed stuff. I hadn't quite thought of that. Of course, I have several characters who get injured in various universes, but I'm not sure I have the ability to write drama right now.

I can't do When I Was Young for the same reasons I can't really do BAMF -- it would revolve around that specific person and I can't. I just can't. "Design Flaw" was enough for me on the particular on-goings of my life right now.

Hm, I don't know if I can come up with something clever for that, either -- but I do really like the Tin Man connection, too. If anything, it'd be unique, and I love unique.

lol if they're humorous opinions on the subject then I miiight just go for that. Because that particular aspect of the male's design always did strike me as erm, odd. Though I understand why it needs to be that way. =p
