REPLACING THE FAILURE THAT IS MY POETRY PROJECT
I was chatting it up with liz_o_fashiz_o and javabill last night after a hearty, friendly, hilarious game of Hold ‘Em, and Liz came up with the idea for The Great Album Challenge. It’s awesome!
There’s a deadline to join. A deadline to post your "list of the 100 albums everyone should listen to before they die." Go to this community and join–––> albumchallenge.
Start your lists. Follow the rules. TELL EVERY BLOGGER YOU KNOW.
THE FAILURE I MENTIONED ABOVE
I feel my LiveJournal poetry challenges of late have suffered due to the fact that I am a lazy bitch AND they’re like communism – the idea behind it looks great in written form, but have tragic results when put into practice AND I am a lazy bitch. The prompts will return, however the main goal will simply be to write and share on my journal, not to build poems together. Prompts help me tremendously, as I’m sure they do many other writers here on LJ, noobs or vets.
It’s gonna be sweet. Golly, I do love me some Worcester AND Massachusetts! It’s full of inspiration, the wickedest dialect, and chowder. Mathofackin’ chowder.

I cant believe you’re basically done with your list!!! Are you doing the 20 singles/songs bonus challenge?
I am going to compile a song/singles list as well, but I thought it was a list of 50?
Wow…Maryville is only 2 hours from me! I better let Matt know…

I am SO with you on the 2008.
Somebody put that dog DOWN. Will check on the album thing, as I’m going through my vynil today for the move.
I’m simply ecstatic!! I first saw you when you came to my high school 3-4 years ago…and now I’m a sophomore at Elon…and of all the schools you could be going to…you’re coming to Elon!!!! ^_^ I am so excited and will DEFINITELY be there!
We need to meet. Soon. Pick a date. When will you be available?
Ignore me and bad things will befall you.
