Oh, man! A rough topic for me! I couldn't stand my childhood! :-) I'm sure I'll think of something, though. How does everyone else feel about it?

[flutterbychild.livejournal.com]

I'm nervous, excited...and still wondering what the hell I got myself into!

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

A'ight. I've got a few ideas! :-) Huzzah for week 1!

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

That didn't take long, lol...5 minutes from "OH NO" to "I have a few ideas"!

I have a few ideas, too. :D

[boundfate.livejournal.com]

Woo hoo first topic! What a wide open one!

[xo-kizzy-xo.livejournal.com]

Favorite childhood memory? EEK, can I remember back that far? ;)

I worked all weekend. I'm on vacation this week! I'm going to be spending it recovering from the work hell I just went through for almost three weeks straight *shudder*

[chite.livejournal.com]

I was just thinking the same thing! And then I realize that my perception of childhood is skewed to include everything up to age 17, which makes me feel old.

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

Morning everyone!

*exhausted yawn*

Neat new topic... of course, I wrote this in my NaNo several years ago, so I will have to find a new twist.

[Don't forget to take a gander at my Contestants Poll (http://spydielives.livejournal.com/1590933.html) if you haven't already. I have just over 34% checking in so far.

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

Gah! She's already prepped and briefed!

[lilerthkwake.livejournal.com]

Weekend was great. But I am so nervous about this first week. I don't write a lot about my childhood. I'm always interested in people who remember and write these really detailed and heartwarming and interesting accounts of their childhood... eek. I hope I can do a good job this time around.

And I refuse to use my Bye Week until I absolutely have to. Because knowing me, I'm gonna have to at some point.

[lacombe.livejournal.com]

Same here. I'm worried about the holiday weeks, though! If there's tons of "Byes", that's fewer people competing to not be eliminated!

[tdarling.livejournal.com]

YAAAAAY! I'm so excited! I've been sitting here waiting for it to post before I leave for the day so that I can brainstorm. :)

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Ditto! I have a monotonous day ahead of me, plenty of good time to think on things.

[unsold-capacity.livejournal.com]

Ahaha, neat! I was actually sitting up last night wondering, "What if it's something about memories, what could I write about..."

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

I already made a list of either unique experiences I've had or odd memories or hobbies so that I have a quick point of reference list when I brainstorm myself into a drooling mess. ;D

[libra-dragon.livejournal.com]

Morning! My weekend wasn't to bad.
Lots of the usual...
Lots of homework and attempts at being productive with it.
After a 2nd DJ crapping out at the last minute, I was worried the Masquerade Ball wouldn't be a success but in the end we had a little over a hundred people show up so I would say it went well.

Beyond that...not ready to face Monday yet.

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Congrats! That's a great attendance for an out-of-con season masquerade! :D

[forceworks.livejournal.com]

The weekend was aces.
Much joy was found in my friends faces.

Now Monday's come.
Lo and alas, there's work to be done.

One task already stands complete.
The first challenge I was quick to meet!

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

It's going to be quite interesting to see if you'll keep up the verse,
or if you'll end up sick of it, stuck with it, and terse.

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

TWO PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY DONE THEIR TOPICS.

Dude. That is way impressive...time to start the list of entries I like...

[shay-writes.livejournal.com]

Are you using a spread sheet? I wonder if I should track my favs or just rely on my memory.

I'm going to have to take notes. :)

[celticboy.livejournal.com]

Thoughts?

AAARGGHHHHHHHHH *headdesk* What am I thinking of? trying to write a novel (NaNoWriMo), finding out the file is corrupting so having to patch it back together from code, having to push our developers to get software ready for release by End of Month, Testing said software

and LJIdol?

Why yes, I will have a drink of battery acid please, and kindly turn up the voltage on these nipple clamps.

[flutterbychild.livejournal.com]

But you've done your entry...you may laugh at all of our confused souls trying to figure out what to write.

[belenen.livejournal.com]

OMG I'm so excited and nervous too! eeeek!

[spydielives.livejournal.com]

O.M.G.

*seizes*

*comes to*

*sees your icon again*

*seizes*

*comes to*

[eyes closed, I am telling you I *heart* your icon]

[bangdrum.livejournal.com]

*sits in corner*

Not only did I not particularly enjoy my childhood, I can't for the life of me think of a single, identifiable moment that was enjoyable and would qualify as a "memory."

*goes back to sitting in corner*

[flutterbychild.livejournal.com]

*hugs you, just because*

I'm sure you'll think of something...

[kelly0182.livejournal.com]

my weekend included a trip to Costco and my dog killing my hair dryer because the sound it makes scares her.

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

LOL...that's too funny! I'm sorry your hair dryer is dead, though. *giggles* I can just see an angry Weiner dog ripping a hair dryer apart...

[missinfinity.livejournal.com]

I applied for a transfer to JHU.

I won't find out until June.

Hold me.

[belenen.livejournal.com]

*holds you*

I understand the horror of waiting, ugh! good luck blocking it out of your mind 'til then! ;-)

[welfy.livejournal.com]

What an exciting topic! I have way too many happy childhood memories but I'd love to write about one of them this week. :^)

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Ditto...I am lucky enough to have a lot of happy memories, but I'm pretty much an easily-pleased kind of girl. ;D

[ambwilson.livejournal.com]

It begins! I don't know what I'll write about yet, but am excited to finally know the first topic.

[n-decisive.livejournal.com]

I can understand why you'd be excited and nervous. There are a lot of people and there's a lot to do! I've been impressed by how thorough you've been in reading things.

Weekend: Relatively productive, thankfully. Yours?

Thoughts: I didn't know what to expect, really, and I'm so thrilled to find that this community is full of warm, thoughtful people with excellent senses of humor. It feels a lot like what LJ was when I first got an account here; it feels personal again.

[beemerbike.livejournal.com]

I know what you mean about that last part. I was all cranky a couple weeks ago and nearly canceled. It's nice to see so many people commenting and friending, etc.

[beemerbike.livejournal.com]

Wow, this week came faster than I thought it would. I was all itchy to write now and I've had my panic after reading the topic. It took a few minutes, but I have some thoughts.

[kindapoetry.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I freaked out initially when I saw the topic, but I wrote mine and I'm quite happy with it. I read your's too, it's spiffy!

[adpaz.livejournal.com]

This is going to be one of my busier weeks. I'm glad I've gotten my topic in early so I can focus on getting stuff ready for the wedding we're flying out to on Thursday.

And yes, I DID put a twist on mine. :D I'm hoping that people will like it. I'm trying not to be nervous about it, because I don't have the time for nerves. Not helping, though.

*icon converstaion*

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Ooh! Hi, little sister!

[rm.livejournal.com]

And here I was all ready for an angst topic!

I spent teh weekendw ith a cold and not geting enough done. Although we went to a nice party and slept a lot.

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Your weekend sounds identical to mine! :D Isn't partying and sleep a good combination?

[1-rhiannon-1.livejournal.com]

Oh hell - I got nothin on this one =S

I'll be thinking about it though. The good news is that since the campus computer system is down (on the first friggin day of registration, mind you! Grrr!) I'll have plenty of time to try to think about something to write. Work sure isn't going to happen today.

Oh hey, good morning by the way =)

[anchasta.livejournal.com]

Lol, communication breakdown, baby! Now you gave me a Led Zeppelin earworm. I love your icon, by the way. :D

[mme-furiosa.livejournal.com]

Same here. I'll hold your hand if you'll hold mine. I'm sure it will be just fine. Maybe even better than fine?

[kindapoetry.livejournal.com]

Better than fine = finier?

[blackfroggy.livejournal.com]

long weekend at work

and since I just failed...I mean finshed my exams this week, I have no excuse to not post an entry for LJ idol this week.
