Green Room - Week 11 - Day 4

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

The deadline for this week's entries keep inching forward. http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/744758.html

So, if you, like the majority of people, haven't turned anything in yet, and are still stuck on ideas, I'd suggest that you go check out the Work Room: http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/745010.html for some inspiration!

Plus, there is a new Killing Floor happening! http://therealljidol.livejournal.com/746485.html

****

That's all of the "Official Idol Stuff" I have for you right now. Other than maybe suggesting that you check out yesterday's bit of a love fest for the people out of byes.

What's on YOUR agenda for this coming weekend?/what is your plan to survive Friday?

FRIST!!! Why is your summer on a timer? What's happening in 20?

Yay!!!!

MY BFF IS HERE AT MY HOUSE. :D :D :D

I am going to make sure n3m3sis43 finishes her fricken entry, that's what I'm going to do all weekend. ;)

Mine's finished, just needs some editing/cutting down. I have approximately 3000 words of entry. Longest one I've posted yet. Woops?

I've been wanting to read more blogs, particularly writerly type blogs, so I signed up with feedly.com, which seems pretty cool.

So now I'm wondering - what blogs do you guys follow or read regularly? Doesn't have to be about writing.

[lrig-rorrim.livejournal.com]

Hrm... let's see here.

- I love Bookslut (http://www.bookslut.com/)
- Pharyngula (http://freethoughtblogs.com/pharyngula/) is a science and free-thought blog - not writing related at all, really, but I read it regularly and enjoy it. I like learning stuff.
- Of COURSE there's The Ferrett (http://theferrett.livejournal.com/). His stuff gets crossposted from a real blog, but he's an LJer at heart, and has writing stuff from time to time.
- N.K. Jemisin (http://nkjemisin.com/) is one of my all-time favorite writers. She writes about a lot of stuff on her blog, but writing is one of those things.
- Writer Unboxed (http://writerunboxed.com/) is a thing I check periodically
- Geek Feminism (http://geekfeminism.org/) is a thing I read regularly

I'm going out to dinner with my bff Max, and I'm going to play Skyrim when I get home. Exciting life, mine, but after this week, it's welcome! :)

Flailing to get work squared away before vacation, seeing if I can get an Idol draft in shape so I don't take a bye this week, and wondering WHAT I am forgetting, because there will be something. :O

[zhent.livejournal.com]

This is a weekend in which I go to work for 36 hours...

yay

[gratefuladdict.livejournal.com]

I stared at my entry for two hours last night. Wrote four sentences. Hated three of them.

So that should tell you what I'm doing this weekend!

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

That means 25% passed muster! Not too shabby. :)

[bleodswean.livejournal.com]

I celebrate Fridays not survive them. ;)

Our first weekend "off" in three months. We're going to be lounging poolside And maybe maybe I can talk my SO into a new tattoo on Sunday.

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

Agenda: writing my entry - my Muse finally whacked me upside the head when I was in the shower this morning - and she used a very sturdy clue-by-four to show me how to approach the idea I had in mind. I think once I actually sit down and write it that it will be made of awesome! Phew!

Also, if anyone hasn't gotten to see Maleficent yet, it is SO good! I was really impressed with it!

Not much else that I can think of right now...

[dmousey.livejournal.com]

Can I steal that 'clue by four' phrase at sometime or another? The imagery made me laugh. :)

At least I get to dissect stuff

[reckless-blues.livejournal.com]

I'm back in school again since Tuesday. There's an anatomy and physiology class that everyone in my school on a medical track needs to take, so they run it year-round and crammed an accelerated version into the summer semester.

In other words, I just checked my syllabus and found I have an exam every week from now until August. The first is on organic chemistry. I need Jesus.

[kickthehobbit.livejournal.com]

OChem is not that bad! It's a lot of memorization, but it's not all that rough. You're smart; you'll do fine. :D

[lrig-rorrim.livejournal.com]

My surviving Friday plan includes bubble tea, eating some food (haven't done that yet. Whoops) and taking the car to get the tires looked at, since a "low pressure" light came on. Otherwise, writing. Lots of writing. All the writing.

And reading. Because Mira Grant's Feed is damn good, and I just HAVE to know what happens next.

[beeker121.livejournal.com]

Heh. Welcome to the Newsflesh trilogy, enjoy your politics and zombies.

The upstairs bathroom (my parents house were we have been living) has been used for storage for many years (10 or more) I am in the process of cleaning it out. My health issues limit what I can do at a time but excavation is on going and It must be done befor the end of the month so that things can be fixed. Haling water up and down stairs for my frog tank and trees has become a bit much for me so must be able to manage up stairs.
Beyond the cleaning, resting from the cleaning and mushrrom and swiss stuffed hamburgers.

It's my late day at work. As soon as I get home, it's finding something to eat, walking the kidz, and going to bed. Typical Friday!

Beta?

[roina-arwen.livejournal.com]

I've got a draft done - does anyone want to beta for me? It's about my usual length, 700 or so words. Thank you!

Re: Beta?

[kathrynrose.livejournal.com]

You can send it to me. :)

My weekend plans:

[ellakite.livejournal.com]

Going to see MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING in Central Park.

You may envy me.

Re: My weekend plans:

[clauderainsrm.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to make too much of an ado about that. At least not anymore. ;)

[aimercat.livejournal.com]

my agenda is the same as every weekend...just different games. handling the bar crowd at work

I've heard more about LeBron's cramps in 48 hours than I've heard about anyone's in 2 years of sorority life while in college. Jesus, professional athlete....eat a banana, drink a coconut water and if they are menstral, take a damn Midol, you big vagina!

and i have absolutely nothing for this topic and wish i still had a bye.

[whipchick.livejournal.com]

Just did the Dundas Buskerfest in Canada and it went well, other than getting rained out two hours early. But a good group of performers and it's always a nice audience! Plus I've had eggs benedict three mornings in a row and I AM GOING TO MAKE IT FOUR. Yum!

[mari4212.livejournal.com]

I dropped and was expecting nothing for this prompt because well, 24 hours of traveling across countries to move home.

But I did manage a home game entry from out of nowhere:http://mari4212.livejournal.com/370004.html

[rswndrlst.livejournal.com]

Still writing but not quite coming up a solid entry.

If I bye out this topic the term recency bias will haunt me for the rest of my life because I had never heard of the term before it was posted and then all week I've been finding examples of it. I'm just not sure how to turn it into a story.

Anyway back to writing.

Please may I take this opportunity to apologise to every one whose comments I have not yet answered and, moreover, to the kind soul who looked at my piece in last week`s Killing Floor.

The excuse and reason for my rudeness is that I have been stupidly ill again, due to ongoing MS relapse issues and related infections.

If it helps, I am even more anti-social IRL at the moment and therefore adorable (opposite of).
