I am sorry for the dearth of DR's but I have not been here much this week. In fact I just got home in time to vote yesterday. Now I almost wish I hadn't. I voted Lolly out and having Orlando stay might put the President in jeopardy.. I know I can't make it to the end of the game but I am hoping he can. Hopefully this will work out. Otherwise I am going to feel horrible if Orlando stays and nominates Barack. He has put more effort into the game than anyone here and I would like to see him get rewarded. I know he is upset  |

On the good side I am thrilled to have Lindsay back. I would have loved Mingin too. They were two of my favorites and they left way too soon. I just didn't see Lindsay's chances being that great but as the mighty Penn has stated innumerably " It only takes one" She had that " one"
I was worried about a DPOV falling into enemy hands and not knowing who had it. Having a houseguest return was the best case scenario and having it be Lindsay was great.
My first concern was that I would get caught between Lindsay and Barack again. That would suck but it seems they have put everything behind them and want to work together. That works for me. I just heard from both Barack and Lindsay that the new alliance is Sandra, Lindsay, Barack and myself.
I don't know what this will mean for the Barack, Debra, Kathy, James alliance...but from what I have told that one never existed.( except in my mind..lol ) Still I feel an obligation to James and especially to Kathy so it is going to be a bit of a challenge to juggle both. Plus I love my HM. I am a bit upset with Eve and Sausage for showing my PMS and IMs to Barack. I would like to be able to give them shit for it but I don't want them to know he told me. I have the same problem with Lolly. I saw an IM where she said she would have nominated me had she won the HOH I won. I was surprised since she had been one of my faves up til that point. I still like her and was hoping to win her over but I never saw her on AIM. When she was nominated against Orlando, someone I absolutely trusted it was a no-brainer. Now that she stayed I can't even tell her why I voted her out. I can't tell her Barack showed me that IM.

UGH. Lindsay has come up with a plan to win this HOH but I am not 100% happy with it . Basically I would have to throw it to her. That is ok since I doubt I could win the parts requiring speed anyway, plus it leaves me free to compete next week. I agreed to help her but now she wants me to post incredible times that I have no chance at fulfilling my bids on. It will be obvious that we are in collusion. Plus it will piss a lot of people off. I would rather try to place bids that are almost realistic and say I was just too confident but she wants me to say 1 second for the puzzle and 250 posts per minute, 50 questions in a minute  UGH !!!!!! The worst part of this plan is that neither of us are really going to get our bids. |

UGH Even Barack wants me to go through with it but I can't. He knows I am playing with James and Kathy and him but he made another alliance with Lindsay and Sandra and included me. That wouldn't be the end of the world but he did that after hearing that Lindsay was planning on nominating them both. I don't want them nominated. I certainly don't want them nominated by someone that I helped win. To make this even worse James IMed me and told me Lindsay told Barack she was targeting him. What is he thinking  I do not want any part of this one. I had agreed to help Lindsay win because it meant safety for a week for both Barack and I but this is all too complicated d he can be pissed at me, they both can, but I am not doing it. It may be a loophole in the rules but it is as close to cheating as one can get and I don't see any potential for fun. I like to see real competition..even if it means I lose, which I will but I can deal with that. |

Well I stuck to my guns and wouldn't you know it..I LOST..LMAO
Not only that, I am nominated with the most popular girl in the house. To make it worse she is an ally and I can't lobby against her so I am just going to see what happens. The only thing I can do at the moment is try to get the extra votes. I have been posting all night in order to pull that off. So far it is looking possible but I could lose everything if I don't stay til the end.I hope to get one and Lindsay is trying for the other. I am really liking Lindsay and Sandra and I hope Barack is sincere about working with them. Especially since he seems to be wanting James and Kathy out. I am truly baffled at that change of plans.
Barack and Lindsay are both trying to get the other one and so is Chris.
I was giving everybody votes but I realized that Chris wasn't so I stopped. I could tell from his post count that he was not giving me, Lindsay and possibly even Barack any votes. I don't blame him because he is a smart guy and he wants to win. As long as he doesn't start putting them back again I should be ok or at least one vote. Of course it will require both Lindsay and Barack to help by not giving any to Chris either.
I feel a bit bad about this but I am on the block and I will go home without the extra votes. Chris and HM have both shocked me by telling me I have their votes. That is way more than I had expected. In fact I will believe it when I see it with my own eyes. The votes I can count on are Sandra and Lindsay. Lindsay has been trying to get an extra vote fr me too. In fact so has Barack.
Lolly told me she wants me to stay and I believe her. I really like her and I understand why she nominated me. I am just disappointed that "someone " told her that lie about me almost nominating her. That was not true. In fact it was Barack that tried to get me to nominate her when I was HOH. He was trying to save Sean at the time and I refused. He kept telling me that Lolly was going to nominate me if she won HOH. In fact he even showed me an IM saying that but I refused. He wasn't very happy about it. I know he was hoping she would leave and Adam and Sean would stay. He was using her to try to keep his original alliance in tact..but I did not take the bait.
I can't imagine anyone else telling Lolly that story because it was only discussed by Barack and I. My guess is he was feeling vulnerable when she won HOH so he told her that to save his own ass. I would never have done that to him. In fact I could have easily gone to Lolly with the truth and showed her the IMs that he gave me of her saying she would nominate Debra....but I can't do that to him. I am too much of a sap and besides I am still hoping he will win. I told him I would do whatever I could to help him so I guess I will keep my mouth shut and let him have his way. The problem is I really like Lolly and I don't want her to think I was going to do that. I can imagine she was shocked and hurt when he told her I was thinking about putting her up because I was upset when he showed me her IM. Lolly and I were getting along very well before that.
If I stay I will try to figure out a way to make things right between her and I, without throwing him under the bus. ( Although he doesn't deserve it..lol )

Well at least Barack and Lindsay got an extra vote but a lot of good it will do me. I don't expect Barack to use his on me and Lindsay will probably have to use hers to save Sandra now. That is if HM uses the POV on Kathy. HM told me she might use it on me but I told her it was just as good to save Kathy, which is probably what she would prefer anyway. HM asked me if I would keep Kathy in the vote if she POVed me instead. Of course I said yes and at the time I meant it but Kathy did something that bothered me last night.
She gave me a hard time for "helping: Lindsay get an extra vote and said it made it harder for her to trust me. Really ? I told her I gave everyone votes , even Chris..but when it looked like he was going to stay up all night and possibly win someone suggested I delete Chris's. That is the truth . She asked me who told me that and I wouldn't tell her so she immediately sent Barack an IM saying Debra was hinting that he did it. That was a blatant lie !!! In fact when she asked me who it was I said I would rather not say. Then she asked me if it was Barack and I said " NO, He wasn't even on line at the time"
So why did she run to him and make it sound like said it was him ? Barack tells me she doesn't trust me an inch but maybe its me that shouldn't trust her so much. I am really disappointed because I am more loyal to her than Barack is. He wanted both James and Kathy nominated and he wants them both gone. At least that is what he told me.
Another interesting tidbit is that James is extremely confident that he will not be nominated post POV.
He is a very likable guy and I guess he has turned his charm on to Lolly. I could see him winning this game. In fact I could even see me voting for him..well that is IF I even make jury. At the moment that seems highly unlikely.

Well I am holding out a glimmer of hope that I will survive this vote but it is going to be very close. I am certain of Linsday and Sandra and I think I have Sausage. Chris and Barack are also possibilities. HM, Eve and James are probably keeping Kathy. Barack asked me if I wanted him to use his extra vote on me but he also told me it would expose his closeness to me. I know he has been working with Kathy all along so it wouldn't surprise me if he used them both on her. Looks like my fate lies in his hands. If he is as smart as I think he is, he will keep me. He has to know that I would never do anything to jeoprdize him in this game. Nobody wants to tell anyone how they are voting and they all want to vote with the majority. Barack is annoyed that people won't step up and make moves and he complains about people being timid but he is doing the same thing IMO. If he would just tell Chris he was keeping me Chris would too. I will definitely not be surprised if I leave.

My glimmer of hope is gone. I have a sense of impending doom and I am almost 100% convinced it is Barack's doing. I knew I wouldnt do well in this game but I was hoping to make jury to help him. I am not really sure I want to now so it won't really matter.

Lolly sent me a PM saying Sausage , Chris and Eve backed out of keeping me so unless Lindsay and barack have used their extra votes I am gone. I am pretty sure that is the case and to be honest I am almost relieved. I had way too much going on on my life to put the effort into this game. Hopefully next year I will be feeling better and I will try another one but for now this ORG player has gone into retirement.
