Green Room - Week 17 - Weekend Edition

Mar. 18th, 2011 at 3:10 PM

clauderainsrm

I apologize for how late this Green Room is today.

I had to go get some tests done.

The verdict? Idol contestants were in fact correct.

I have no heart. They just couldn't find one. Also missing were compassion, mercy and a conscience.

However my blood-lust and evil glands appear to be abnormally large, filling up those otherwise empty spaces quite well.

They attempted to do some bloodwork. But it turns out that it's pure acid!
I guess that I should have told them in advance! Oops. My bad.

I'm sure the techs will recover. Eventually.

You on the other hand? You will never recover.

You will be reading entries http://community.livejournal.com/therealljidol/439978.html and sending me your votes.

What else will you be doing? Suffering? Being oppressed? Stressing out?

Those I know about!!!!

Anything else going on this weekend?

It's 70 degrees out, so my kids and I are pitching a tent in the backyard and we're having a campout. They'll be telling ghost stories while I'm sitting with my itty bitty laptop, reading the rest of the LJ Idol entries!

I am stunned that I am posting so early in a green room.

I would gladly offer to have no heart if it meant I needed no digestive system. I've had a killer stomach flu for like 48 hours now and its truly made my life a little vile.

On the positive side, two weeks of spring break after today. On the negative side, I'm in administration so I don't get to go anywhere.

Heck yes, I'm suffering.

BECAUSE I WANT POLL GRAPHS. I want to be able to track my progress and all this behind the scenes stuff is driving me mad, MAD I TELLS YA.

Other than that, not much is going down.

ETA: Oh, yes and I just got through playing through Portal for, like, the billionth time. That game is BEYOND fun, y'all. Overused memes, whatever.

This weekend I will be trying my ABSOLUTE BEST to stay off my foot as much as possible! I even have all my schoolwork set up by the couch where my laptop is set up so I can just sit and relax.

I do have something to do on Sunday, and some laundry to do... but that's about it. ^^

Trying to only think of ways to dispose if virtual bodies and not real ones at the moment. Definitely not thinking about how frustrated I am with a coworker or three.

Trying to only think of ways to dispose if virtual bodies
<-- I am actually doing this. The play that I'm writing has a massive turning point with the discovery of a body in/near a boathouse, but I don't have anywhere to put the body that isn't, you know, body-in-the-ceiling.

I'll never recover?! *hand.staple.forehead* Woes! I don't even know what I have that I'm not recovering from!

Eh, that's all I got. Short of drama today :D

Weekend is full of stuffs! Should get out for a gaming night tonight. Spending time with my dad tomorrow morning, he has an autograph from Martin Luther King Jr he's trying to get authenticated and appraised at an autograph show. Have a date tomorrow night, and Sunday will probably be recovery time :D

Good luck to everyone this week! Lots of good entries this week :) I'm taking a home game bye this week, will start when we get a new non-open topic. Think there'll be an open topic hat-trick?

Acid? That's a fine trick. I wonder if I can get my blood switched out for acid too. It would certainly keep those pesky vampires at bay! And while I do have a heart, I am absolutely bereft soul-wise. Must be why I enjoy this craziness so much.

Exciting SGTV filming tonight and tomorrow! And also probably editingeditingediting on Sunday. I'm still behind on my freelance novel editing gig by a month. Oy. Oh, and worrying about Idol, of course.

I could have told you that, Gary! And I'm not a doctor! You could have forked over that $500 an hour the insurance is paying to me instead. I'd be sure to put it to better use...heck, I'd have offered you a discount because it's you after all :)

Day is blah here. Several more hours till I can get off work. I think I'll be lame and spend the night working from home because I'm so awesome and well lame like that. Go me!

I'm not the only one who feels sad that the weekend is too short before it even officially begins, right? I just read in Cosmo that you feel crappy until about noon on Saturday and then start feeling crappy again by 4 pm on Sunday. Work sucks the life right out of us, I swear!

I want to be independently wealthy *sigh* I know some people are like "I'd still work even if I was rich". I am NOT one of those people. I'd sleep and frolic and write.

One more day of work, then....VACAAAAAAAATION!!!!!!!

I wonder if my feeling as though I've been run over by a Mack truck is a sign that maybe I should be taking it easy?

This weekend marks the end of my Spring Break :( I just want it to go on forever! I don't want to go back to the madhouse where I teach.

Hopefully I will do SOMETHING fun this weekend... try and work on my tan some more (a losing battle), go grocery shopping, finish my book... you know, real party stuff.

I find it hard to believe that Gary has no heart!

Busy weekend for us with the little guy's baptism on Sunday. I have a lot of prep to do and the hubby won't be home until late tonight.

I jealous of all my neighbors who are using the nice weather to BBQ tonight!

This weekend I have some stuff I need to do that may or may not get done because I plan to spend every spare second I have playing Dragon Age II. I'm so excited to complete my first play through, and I'm hoping maybe I can pull it off this weekend. Or get close, anyway.

Other than that? I got nothing. Well, I have a heart, mercy, compassion and a conscience. As long as no one tries to get between me and my game console this weekend :)

I do have Idol reading to finish. I'm going to try and do that before I leave work tonight. It's Friday, after all, and starting a new task now would be ridiculous with an hour left.
