Zienna: Hey sweetie
AML6349: Hey Hey! What's up?
Zienna: Not much, how're you? :-)
AML6349: Good - watching 'The Biggest Loser'
Zienna: How is that? I watched a few episodes, but I've been so busy lately.
AML6349: I enjoyed it!
Zienna: Who ended up winning?
AML6349: Not sure, tonight is the last episode! It's down to Gary, Kelly & Ryan.
Zienna: Oooh, that's good. I liked Gary.
Zienna: Have you given any thought to the game? :-(
AML6349: A little here and there... just wanted to see what others' thoughts were, kwim?
Zienna: Kwim?
AML6349: Know What I Mean
Zienna: Oh, lol, hehe. Of course.
Zienna: What have you heard?
AML6349: I've heard a few people mention Lisa and that's all I've heard.
Zienna: Can I ask who? :-)
AML6349: I could tell you who but I don't remember - lol - I'd have to look through my chats.
Zienna: Ah, hehe.
AML6349: I'm open to ideas - have you heard anything?
Zienna: I've been thinking perhaps Lisa.
Zienna: Undecided, though.
Zienna: I wuoldn't be comfortable going without a majority, y'know?
AML6349: Exactly.
Zienna: Would you be willing to vote that way should the majority swing that way?
AML6349: Yes - and I have a feeling that it would be easy to get that majority.
Zienna: I have 4 votes behind me for Lisa, if you're willing to make it 5 there is a majority there.
AML6349: Let me see who mentioned Lisa to me, it should confirm for you.
Zienna: Excellent.
AML6349: Ellie said Lisa, and said that Jenne would too (but I got that from Ellie, not Jenne direct).
Zienna: Lisa said she'd vote for herself?
AML6349: ?
AML6349: I'm confused, lol.
AML6349: Ellie said she would vote for Lisa, and Ellie told me that Jenne would vote for Lisa.
Zienna: Oh, ok, gotcha.
Zienna: Well.. I've been speaking with Jenne.
AML6349: I just didn't hear it from Jenne directly.
AML6349: Oh?
Zienna: Yes.
AML6349: Did she mention someone else?
Zienna: Nope. But I know two who would be willing.
Zienna: So are you in?
AML6349: Yes, I'm in for a Lisa vote. Who else do you have?
Zienna: Ashlee, Jenne and Gracie.
AML6349: I'm positive that Ellie will be in too, because she brought up Lisa's name to me; my gut says that Stephanie will too (maybe Kelley).
AML6349: So that's 6 - 8 votes.
Zienna: So long as I have 5 in the hand I am content, however I wouldn't want to leave them all in the dark.
Zienna: So if you want to clue them in on the next vote, please do, but I trust that you will not be persuaded to alter your decision?
AML6349: I'm steadfast - she will get my vote. She was my pick since before we started talking about it.
Zienna: Excelelnt, I'm psyched to hear that.
AML6349:
Zienna: ::hugs::
AML6349: *HUGZ* How was your day?
Zienna: Really tiring, I oughta head in early tonight, but I gotta do homework first :-(
AML6349: Fun fun I had a good, but long, day myself.
Zienna: Aww, I'm sorry, those are the most difficult.
AML6349: My daughter actually fell asleep on her bed, by herself, for the first time ever so it had a good ending.
Zienna: Aww, that's wonderful!
AML6349: I was pleased, and surprised.
Zienna: hehe, I could only imagine
Zienna is away at 8:39:51 PM.

SurvivorGracie: Hey Annette
AML6349: Hey Hey!!
SurvivorGracie: how are you?
AML6349: Not bad, you? How was your day?
SurvivorGracie: busy!
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I was so glad to leave work
AML6349: lol, I bet.
SurvivorGracie: how was your little girl today?
AML6349: Ehh - crabby... but she fell asleep on her bed by herself, for the first time ever.
SurvivorGracie: aw .. did you take a picture to memoralize the event?
AML6349: Naaah. She was asleep by the time I got home, I had to baby-sit my nephews for about 30 min.
SurvivorGracie: aw .... lol .. how did that go?
AML6349: Very good, they're fun to play with. Riley is 2 (just a month older than Shanley) and Jayden just turned 1 on Saturday (but he was asleep by the time I got there).
SurvivorGracie: aw .. that's such a fun age!
AML6349: Oh yeah. They all played today and had a good time.
SurvivorGracie: I love playing with little kids
SurvivorGracie: *grin* and I equally love sending them home to their parents
AML6349: That's great too! haha
SurvivorGracie: *grin*
AML6349: So Jamie mentioned to me that you're in for a vote for Lisa.
SurvivorGracie: yes!
SurvivorGracie: she said you were too?
AML6349: Yes - and I just got Stephanie in also... so there's 6 votes.
SurvivorGracie:
SurvivorGracie: I'm sort of surprised that Stephanie said she would
SurvivorGracie: just between you and me
AML6349: Ellie told me last night she was considering Lisa also, so that's maybe 7.
AML6349: Really? Why?
AML6349: She asked me if I really wanted to, I'm wondering if she doesn't want to (like you said)
SurvivorGracie: I got the impression that she was close to Lisa
AML6349: Wow, really? She's never around, how can anyone be close to Lisa? lol
SurvivorGracie: but I could be wrong .. it could be that she was being careful
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I know
AML6349: Unless they know each other from the past or something.
SurvivorGracie: can you keep a secret?
AML6349: Yes.
SurvivorGracie: promise?
SurvivorGracie: I haven't told anyone this
AML6349: Yes, I promise. Nothing you say will past by me.
AML6349: pasS
SurvivorGracie: I caught Lisa in a lie
AML6349: Really! Do tell!
SurvivorGracie: well
SurvivorGracie: Stephanie was on long before Lisa
SurvivorGracie: and she said she knew Lisa
SurvivorGracie: Lisa told me she didn't know anyone
SurvivorGracie: small lie .. but still
AML6349: Hmmm... weird.
SurvivorGracie: yeah
AML6349: She just confirmed to me that she'll vote for Lisa, but we'll see... we have a majority either way.
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. that's good
SurvivorGracie: and besides .. I like Jenne more than lisa :-P
AML6349: So do I.
SurvivorGracie:
AML6349: What are you up to?
SurvivorGracie: watching the Race
SurvivorGracie: *grin* and seeing Victoria yell at Jonathan for a change!
SurvivorGracie: do you watch the Amazing Race?
AML6349: Yes, love it! I hope they get eliminated, I can't stand him. What a jerk!
SurvivorGracie: I know!
SurvivorGracie: every episode I end up yelling at the tv
AML6349: lol
SurvivorGracie: my roommate thinks I'm nuts
SurvivorGracie: *grin*
AML6349: Don thinks I'm nuts too, he hates reality TV.
SurvivorGracie: aw man ... he needs to watch one!
AML6349: Was it just me or did it look like Bolo wanted to hit Lori?
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. it almost did!
SurvivorGracie: lol
AML6349: Victoria's almost as much of a big mouth as Jonathan is.
SurvivorGracie: and Victoria is getting so mad
SurvivorGracie: I really like Kris and Jon though
AML6349: Me too.
AML6349: They seem very cool.
AML6349: All the decent people are gone, it seems like the people left are so bitchy.
SurvivorGracie: I know
SurvivorGracie: I really liked gus and hera
SurvivorGracie: lol .. especially Gus at the bar
AML6349: lol - that was funny. Just one more... come on, just one more.
SurvivorGracie: did Kris and Jon get a penalty?
AML6349: J&V or A&H?
AML6349: Not that I know of.
AML6349: If A&H come in last, I hope it's a non-elimination.
SurvivorGracie: *grin* me too!
AML6349: God damn it.
AML6349: Phil sounded bummed.
SurvivorGracie: yes he did!
AML6349: YAY!
AML6349: Non-elimination!
SurvivorGracie: YES!
AML6349: Brb a sec, need to finish my dishes so I can empty the sink so I can mop the floor.
SurvivorGracie: brb

SurvivorGracie: hey Annette :-)
AML6349: Heya, Good Morning
SurvivorGracie: how is everything for you this morning?
SurvivorGracie: we had some terrific thunderstorms!
SurvivorGracie: lol.. in January!
AML6349: I'm friggin' tired, only got 4 hours of sleep last night.
SurvivorGracie: aw ... that's NOT good!
SurvivorGracie: I hope you get a chance to nap today
AML6349: I wish, but doubtful. I can't sleep unless Shanley does and she rarely takes a nap anymore.
SurvivorGracie: aw ... *rocks Shanley to sleep for Annette*
AML6349: Thanks. It's days like this where I wish I had family nearby that could watch her for a few hours so I could sleep.
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. I can only imagine!
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I think I would fall asleep in my cereal
SurvivorGracie: are you doing anything fun today?
AML6349: Sorry, I was kinda out of it for a while there... lol.
SurvivorGracie: lol
AML6349: Not really - I need to go get a few things at Wal-Fart, but that's about it.
SurvivorGracie: *pokes Annette awake*
AML6349: You? Any plans?
SurvivorGracie: eh . working
SurvivorGracie: but Lost is on tonight .. I am really liking that show
SurvivorGracie: though I do have to go to Barnes and Noble sometime today
AML6349: I might end up Tivoing it and going to bed early, I like it too. Any show with a hobbit ain't bad.
SurvivorGracie: lol
SurvivorGracie: ooh .. you're a good person to ask
SurvivorGracie: I have to get some children's books for a co-worker
SurvivorGracie: any ideas?
AML6349: What age?
SurvivorGracie: she's due on the 31st
SurvivorGracie: lol
SurvivorGracie: but has asked for books for a shower gift
AML6349: Ohh, ok, so infant books... let me think.
SurvivorGracie: yeah ... I am lost for figuring something out
AML6349: My top 3 picks are...
AML6349: Good Night Moon: www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0694003611/ref=pd_ts_b_1/103-2987390-7083851?v=glance&s=books&n=2752
AML6349: Love You Forever (this one tears me up) www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0920668372/ref=pd_ts_b_12/103-2987390-7083851?v=glance&s=books&n=2752
SurvivorGracie: ooh.. I had actually looked at that one
AML6349: Guess How Much I Love You www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/076360013X/ref=pd_ts_b_13/103-2987390-7083851?v=glance&s=books&n=2752
AML6349: Which one?
SurvivorGracie: Love you forever
SurvivorGracie: I like that one
SurvivorGracie: in fact .. all 3 of those look good!
AML6349: It's a great book, I buy it for everyone I know that's pregnant. I cried the first time I read it. lol
SurvivorGracie: woot .. *grin* now I know what to buy tonight!
AML6349: Shanley has at least 100 books and those are still her favorites.
SurvivorGracie: aw .. that's so sweet!
SurvivorGracie: *hugs* Thank you!
SurvivorGracie: I'm geeked that I know what to get now
AML6349: No problem! Always glad to help!
SurvivorGracie: :-) .. will definitely make B*N easier tonight
SurvivorGracie: lol .. may even have time to pick myself out a book
AML6349: What kinds of books do you enjoy?
SurvivorGracie: hmm .. mostly fiction ... I love mysteries
SurvivorGracie: authors I like most are Michael Crichton
SurvivorGracie: Dan Brown
SurvivorGracie: Jonathan Kellerman
AML6349: Cool
SurvivorGracie: I forget the one author's name .. he's a lawyer
SurvivorGracie: what kind of books do you like?
AML6349: Fiction also - I don't read as much as I used to, I find it hard to concentrate anymore. I'm a big Stephen King fan and I also like Jodi Picoult.
SurvivorGracie: what books did Jodi Picoult write?
SurvivorGracie: I don't think I've heard of her
AML6349: They usually have a law/lawyer spin on them - like one was about an amish girl that gets pregnant.
SurvivorGracie: is that the one that was made into a movie recently?
AML6349: Hmmm... I'm not sure.
SurvivorGracie: I think it was on Lifetime or something .. with Mariska Hagierty
SurvivorGracie: lol .. all I remember is that it was about an Amish girl that the lawyer was trying to help
AML6349: I just looked it up, yes!
AML6349: That was her book.
AML6349: There was another made of her book called 'The Pact', about 2 teenagers that had a suicide pact.
SurvivorGracie: I really liked the movie about the Amish girl!
SurvivorGracie: a suicide pact?
SurvivorGracie: that couldn't have been fun
AML6349: As in they'd both kill themselves, do it together... the girl dies but the boy doesn't, and they go on to charge him for her murder, etc.
SurvivorGracie: wow
SurvivorGracie: that would have been an intense movie/book I think
AML6349: It was, from what I remember - it's been a while since I read it.
SurvivorGracie: now I"m going to have to definitely check out her books tonight too
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I so could spend a fortune at the bookstore
AML6349: lol - to make your picks even harder, eh?
SurvivorGracie: yeah! darn it
SurvivorGracie: *grin* wonder what my roommate would think if I told her I spent all my rent money on books
AML6349: haha, I doubt she'd be happy eh?
SurvivorGracie: drat .. probably not too much
SurvivorGracie: and I'm not fond of sleeping in the snow
SurvivorGracie: I think my dream job would be working in a bookstore
SurvivorGracie: *grin* as long as there is time to read too
AML6349: Brb, Shanley's laying on the ground with her blanket - gonna see if she'll lay down with me.
SurvivorGracie: *good luck!
