Mine is certainly a title.

It's not bad though!

Hrm.

Can't say it's my favorite of the titles I've ever been assigned, but I bet I can make something happen.

And I'm almost certain I know who provided it, too, so thanks for that. :P

I got a title, too! It's got words in it! Whee!

(Or maybe it's just one word! I can't tell! Because I can't read! Whoo!)

heh, we got a title that is interesting, has been done by several famous bands, but we're going to take it to a dumb place. That's just how we roll.

The title I got is deceptively simple. 8 days in, and I've only managed to write two lines.

As I typed that, I realized that "Deceptively Simple" would actually make a good title.

I think that's a filler track from a Prince album.

Oh good, not due yet. I have some music and some words, but I've had a cold that's kicking my butt and can't sing yet.

As we cruise inexorably into the due date weekend, I of course, just realized that this is Easter weekend, and many people (including myself) have family obligations. Obligatory deadline extension in effect! New due date.. Hm, should we say 4/14? I was a week late getting the submissions out, so this is really only a week past the original idea of 4 weekends ;-)

Spectacular! I was racking my brain trying to figure out how I was going to finish a song while travelling to see family for Easter.

Busy Easter weekend here too. The extension will be utilized for vocal practice, because my first run is awful. They sound like if Billy Corgan and Niel Young had a baby.

.....seriously, try to imagine that. you'll cringe, lol.
