It kind of seems like everybody's doing LJ Idol. I think I should maybe do it, too, since I now have some kind of life to write about.

So, here goes! I'm signing up for therealljidol.

I wrote a poem recently.

I know, I know! I'm not usually the poetry type. But I just felt a muse and I went with it. Admittedly, I'm not crazy about poetry in general, but I think this is a good place to start with getting back into writing again.

How unlike me! I was doing so well with sharing all the cool stuff I come across.

Anyways, yes. A Very Potter Musical. Written, directed and performed by fans. Absolutely hilarious. A genius work of art!

So, here's the musical straight through ( Read more... )
