LucasHorowitz: congrats on making it through :-)
AML6349: Thanks.
LucasHorowitz: you're welcome!
AML6349: What's new?
LucasHorowitz: not a whole lot. mostly trying to guess the challenge
AML6349: Yeah, I want to see what it's about.
LucasHorowitz: the best anyone has seem to come up with is "beats the heck out of me"
AML6349: Hah, yeah, sounds about right.

[Annette]

AML6349: Hey Ellie!
Love Struck Muse: Hey Annette!
AML6349: How are you?
Love Struck Muse: I'm ok.. I've had a cold/cough for over a week and it's getting irritating BUT I just got an email from one of my friends who graduated early and is now traveling through Europe. So that cheered me up. You?
AML6349: That's cool. About the friend, not the cold/cough. I'm OK, just waiting for our IC.
Love Struck Muse: Ooh, cool. I came on at the perfect time then! lol
Love Struck Muse: I forgot what time it was posted.
AML6349: In 18 minutes.
Love Struck Muse: Great! Have you seen Steph on?
AML6349: Nope - then again, I took her offa my list. I didn't think we were supposed to talk to her anymore.
Love Struck Muse: LOL, I don't think we are. I was just wondering how she took it :-\
AML6349: I'm not sure.
AML6349: Gracie hasn't seen her either.
Love Struck Muse: She could have blocked us all. Anyways, I wonder if the WHOLE tribe needs to be on to even do this challenge.
AML6349: I hope not.
Love Struck Muse: Me too... although the men would be at a disadvantage too
Love Struck Muse: brb
Love Struck Muse is away at 4:23:35 PM.

Auto response from Love Struck Muse: I am away from my computer right now.

[Annette]

Love Struck Muse: Steph IMed me

Auto response from AML6349: Be right back - just had to leave my computer for a sec.

Love Struck Muse: Oops
Love Struck Muse: lol
AML6349: Did she?
Love Struck Muse: Yes! I didn't say anything except we'll talk about this after the game is done
Love Struck Muse: and she went on and on about how I'm a bad person
Love Struck Muse: And that she expected this from me, but not from you or Ashlee.
AML6349: Ugh, whatever. Drama drama. You're not a bad person and she's a nut for getting real life mixed up with a game.
Love Struck Muse: She said she had "heard things" about me since day 1 and still chose to help me. She kinda flipped out
Love Struck Muse: All she succeeded in was reaffirming to myself that we did the right thing. lol
Love Struck Muse is away at 6:06:00 PM.

SurvivorGracie: if he's making me breakfast, he surely can make my friends their breakfast too

Love Struck Muse: I'll be afk for a few minutes
SurvivorGracie: okies
SurvivorGracie: I'll brb too

Love Struck Muse: I hope it's not steve :-\
AML6349: Hi I'm back.
AML6349: Just eating some left-over cola roast.
SurvivorGracie: <sigh> we're still in our same holding pattern
AML6349: : (
SurvivorGracie: this sucks
AML6349: I still have faith!
SurvivorGracie: *borrows some of Annette's faith*
Love Struck Muse: lol Me too
Love Struck Muse: How'd it turn out, Annette?
Love Struck Muse: Obviously good if you're eating left overs!
SurvivorGracie: I'm eating chocolate for dinner
Love Struck Muse: I just ordered pizza... I'm so hungry
SurvivorGracie: hmm
SurvivorGracie: *steals some of Ellie's pizza*
Love Struck Muse: LOL, go for it... I ordered two mediums for some reason.

SurvivorGracie:
Love Struck Muse: The other tribe is still waiting on someone too.
Love Struck Muse: So we just have to beat that one person on
SurvivorGracie: they're waiting on Steve
Love Struck Muse: Yeah, Steve's so nice
SurvivorGracie: he's been around a lot lately, I'm surprised he's not online
Love Struck Muse: Me too
Love Struck Muse: I'm surprised Tony's online

SurvivorGracie: dagnabit
AML6349: We lost it
SurvivorGracie: what sucks is it wasn't even close
SurvivorGracie: <sigh> and Kelley never showed up either
AML6349: *sigh*
SurvivorGracie: even if Ashlee had shown up .. we'd still be dead
AML6349: Yep. I'll be back in a bit - I have to go out. Sorry I keep coming and going, Shanley's acting horrid tonight. I just need to run out but I'll be back in an hour or so, after she goes to bed.
SurvivorGracie: no problem
SurvivorGracie: take care of the kidlet
AML6349: Be back very soon and we can talk Boot Picks.

Zienna: I have TC with another game, as soon as I cast my vote.. off to bed with me!

[Annette]

xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: Hey :-\
AML6349: Hey
AML6349: Is the challenge over? I don't see results posted.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: well, that's what I wanted to talk to you about
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: :-\I wanted to personally apologize
AML6349: Awww, don't worry about it.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: I know, but I had an unexpected trip to the hospital
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: and I just feel...horrible...for letting everyone down
AML6349: Is everything OK?
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: -nothing serious-
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: but they wanted to make sure my phenomia was gone
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: better safe than sorry
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: and it just ended up being some left over fluid in my lungs, but it should clear up by tomorrow
AML6349: Poor pup
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: lol, well, things aren't that bad
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: I feel much better, thankfully
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: full recovery, the works, lol
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: ;-)
AML6349: I'm glad to hear it!
AML6349: Plans for the weekend?
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: lol, I wish, but I think I might just take it easy
AML6349: Yes, you should... I'm not doing much either. Going to see a comedian tomorrow night and that's about it.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: oh, who is it?
AML6349: His name is Ron White.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: I think I've heard of him
AML6349: He was on that Blue Collar Comedy Tour with Jeff Foxworthy, Larry the Cable Guy & Bill Engvall.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: I love the Blue Comedy DVD
AML6349: You know him then - the first guy who always has a drink & a cigarette.
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx: yes, lol, I'm not good with names
xXHoRSeSHaCkEDXx signed off at 9:51:56 PM.

AML6349: Hiya.
JenneUCSC: hey there
AML6349: How are you?
JenneUCSC: really bummed bout this loss. goin 2X in a row is sooo awful
AML6349: Is it official? I didn't see anything posted.
JenneUCSC: no its not
JenneUCSC: i guess im just gearing up
AML6349: I guess I'm just keeping hope.
JenneUCSC: ill light a candle
AML6349: So how was your day?
JenneUCSC: purdy good actually. i love fridays
JenneUCSC: really pissed bout this challenge though
AML6349: Yeah, it was pretty cruddy. Based on the amount of time it took after Ashlee, had everyone been right on time, we would have finished at like 6 PM.
JenneUCSC: yah we were all lined up ready to go
AML6349: I like challenges that require you to search for something online, I'm pretty good at those.
JenneUCSC: google is a wonderful thing
AML6349: *drinks to that*
JenneUCSC: so ashlee?
AML6349: Sounds like it.
JenneUCSC: i think that was decided a long time ago though
JenneUCSC: i feel bad though. she told me she was in the hospital
JenneUCSC: if thats the reason she wasnt there, then we all suck. but if its not the truth, then well...karma
AML6349: She also seems to be making a lot of deals with people, so she's not as trustworthy as I'd like.
JenneUCSC: ive heard a lot of talk bout her but i never know what to believe
AML6349: I think Jamie made a comment about Ashlee wanting to work with her - and I definitely know that Steph & Ashlee were.
JenneUCSC: i think she is willing to say anything to get further. she is unreliable
JenneUCSC: if she and steph were alligned she turned on her mighty fast like
AML6349: No one else deserves a vote at this time, IMO.
JenneUCSC: agreed
JenneUCSC: *sigh*
AML6349: Yeah, it's hard.
JenneUCSC: at least we'll have yet another unanimous vote
JenneUCSC: keeps the tribe stronger. less hurt feelings
AML6349: We need to get rid of these guys!! Too many ladies are falling too quickly.
JenneUCSC: and i dont count kel's against me
AML6349: Did she vote against you in the first round?
JenneUCSC: yah, she voted with lisa against me
AML6349: That's right.
JenneUCSC: but i made sure to talk to her right after the vote and make sure she knew i didnt hold it against her at all. i understood why
JenneUCSC: but yah we need to get the guys #s down are we are toast at the merge
AML6349: I wish they would 'take one for the team' and at least let us win one and get rid of one of the inactives. It's not far that an active person had to leave but someone that isn't pulling their weight. Ya know what's funny tho?
AML6349: They've just been lucky... that first win, they got it because of *1* person; the valentine one, they got it because of *1* person, this win was because of *1* person... but our story win, when all the teams were *really* working together, we creamed their asses.
JenneUCSC: :-D
JenneUCSC: i dont think any of the guys feel safe. they dont want to go to TC as much as we dont
AML6349: Yeah.
JenneUCSC: and even their inactives help them in the challenges
AML6349: Surprisingly.
JenneUCSC: *on phone tryn to get man to bring me food*
JenneUCSC: soo hungry!
AML6349: kk
JenneUCSC: he delivers pizza. and my mission was a sucess!
AML6349: Nice!
JenneUCSC: i get sick of pizza but their salad bar isnt bad
JenneUCSC: he he
AML6349: I had left-over pizza for dinner tonight.
JenneUCSC: anyways i think after our tribe goes thru all these votes it just makes us tighter and stronger. i think any alliance the guys may have we can shred apart when we merge or switch. even if they have the #s. thats my opinion anyways
AML6349: Sounds good to me.
JenneUCSC: problem is there is no one left to vote off after this next vote really. at least no one i want to lose
AML6349: Yeah, I know. This is where it really starts to get hard.
JenneUCSC: there are some guys i would be happy to vote off
JenneUCSC: if i had that chance
JenneUCSC: :-)
AML6349: Me too!
JenneUCSC: have you interacted much with them?
JenneUCSC: after my mitch drama ive kinda kept my distance
AML6349: Yes and No - I've talked to most of them, and try to on a regular basis, but I find that *I* have to make a first step. Very very rarely, maybe never since the start of the game, do they IM me - it's the other way around.
AML6349: I'll post 2 - 3 conversations a day with a guy - all started by me.
JenneUCSC: i think they are consumed with their own drama
JenneUCSC: i havnt met rami or tony. i tried to introduce myself to steven but that didnt work
AML6349: I've talked to Tony once, at the start... it went like this: Me: Hi! Him: Hi, brb! and I haven't spoken to him since. lol
AML6349: Same w/ Steven.
AML6349: I've talked to Rami a few times but not long each time... I talk to Lucas the most.
JenneUCSC: lucas is on the most of them i think
JenneUCSC: he was the most understanding with the mitch stuff
AML6349: Mitch was normal when I talked to him the first time and cooky the last time.
JenneUCSC: he came on very strong with me. from the first time we met. but he liked me so i tried to keep everything pleasant. then it blew up. CAPOOOOEY
AML6349: Weird... very weird.
JenneUCSC: ok i need to get offa my rump
JenneUCSC: its getting flat
AML6349: I'm going off to sleep soon myself... talk to you tomorrow!!
JenneUCSC: talk to yahs later
AML6349: Nite!

[Annette]

AML6349: Hiya.
kelbelle1973: hey :-)
kelbelle1973: how are you?
AML6349: Not bad, you?
kelbelle1973: I'm good...what's new?
AML6349: Not much - just relaxing after a long day.
kelbelle1973: me too
kelbelle1973: although some days these games are more work than relaxation
kelbelle1973: lol
AML6349: True that - I just got voted out of a game tonight... but I was final 7 out of 37 people so it wasn't too bad.
kelbelle1973: aww, I'm sorry...but wow, that's really good
kelbelle1973: 37 people...that host must be insane. ROFL
AML6349: Yes, she is.
kelbelle1973: who is it?
AML6349: Lamia.
kelbelle1973: oh my
kelbelle1973: then yes, definitely
kelbelle1973: and I'm going to be in her next game...lol
AML6349: Cool! Good luck!
kelbelle1973: thanks! did you have fun?
AML6349: Yes, I did - lots of fun challenges.
kelbelle1973: that's good :-)
kelbelle1973: I had forgotten she asked me to be in it
kelbelle1973: until she IMed me a few days ago and goes "the game starts in February"
AML6349: Are you in any other games besides this one?
kelbelle1973: yes...an All-Star BB game
kelbelle1973: and Jawa's big Survivor/BB/Mole game
AML6349: Cool Cool
kelbelle1973: you?
AML6349: Just this one now that I was voted out of Lamia's.
kelbelle1973: cool :-)
kelbelle1973: can I ask you something?
AML6349: Yes.
kelbelle1973: I was talking to Gracie and she suggested a grouping of girls to work together...and I wasn't sure if it was an invitation to a new one or one already in play
AML6349: It's pretty new - we just started recently talking about working together. I think she approached me about the same time as you.
kelbelle1973: ok, that's good to know :-)
kelbelle1973 is away at 10:43:03 PM.

AML6349: Hiya, I'm back.
SurvivorGracie: we got everyone posted, I think
AML6349: I seen! I wonder if they got all the guys posted.
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. I think the guys were done a couple of hours ago
SurvivorGracie: does my champagne pic show for you?
SurvivorGracie: Jenne says she can't see it
AML6349: I can see it, yes.
SurvivorGracie: cool
AML6349: Everything looks great, just wish it hadn't been as late as it was.
SurvivorGracie: I know
AML6349: Looking at timing and what not - had she been online and everything had been posted then the way it was posted later, we would have been done with the challenge at 5:47 PM.
SurvivorGracie: I know
SurvivorGracie: and Kelley was on the board earlier ~ just not signed in ~ checking
AML6349: Doh!
SurvivorGracie: which way are you leaning for the vote?
AML6349: Gah, I don't know - that's what I wanted to talk to you about.
SurvivorGracie: lol
AML6349: Who's our choices again? lol
SurvivorGracie: I think basically Kelley and Ashlee?
AML6349: Who are you leaning towards? I know who I'm leaning towards but want to hear what you think first.
SurvivorGracie: but that's me .. I'm open to others too
SurvivorGracie: Ashlee?
AML6349: Does the ? mean you're not sure?
SurvivorGracie: lol .. she makes most sense more than likely
SurvivorGracie: what do you think though?
AML6349: Out of Kelley & Ashlee, I'd vote for Ashlee first. Not just because of the IC, but because she was very closely aligned to Stephanie and apparently making lots of alliances. I showed Jamie something Steph had said about her & Ashlee being aligned and Jamie? (thin it was Jamie) thought it was funny since Ashlee had approached her as well.
SurvivorGracie: quite weird!
SurvivorGracie: sounds like she's promising stuff to everyone
AML6349: Did she promise something to you too? She didn't to me.
SurvivorGracie: yeah ... she promised to be loyal to me
SurvivorGracie: someone told me though that Ashlee said I thought I was in charge or something?
SurvivorGracie: do I act like I think I do?
SurvivorGracie:
AML6349: I don't think so - no.
AML6349: I think we all step up and take charge from time to time, but you don't seem like you're trying to be a leader.
SurvivorGracie: <whew> thank you
AML6349: Kelley said something to me, and I wanted to get your feedback on it, what I should say?
SurvivorGracie: I think the vote is pretty much Ashlee from what I can tell
AML6349: kelbelle1973: I was talking to Gracie and she suggested a grouping of girls to work together...and I wasn't sure if it was an invitation to a new one or one already in play
AML6349: Ok
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. I sent the Pm to everyone .. after I talked to Kelley the other night
AML6349: Should I make it seem like it was just *now* coming together? So she doesn't feel out of the loop?
SurvivorGracie:
SurvivorGracie: good idea!
SurvivorGracie: yeah
AML6349: Ok, done. Thanks.
SurvivorGracie:
AML6349: I'm trying to decide if I want to go to bed early tonight or not.
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I can relate to that
AML6349: I only slept 3 hours again last night... but I wasn't too tired today. I think it's because I'm getting used to it.
SurvivorGracie: aw .. I dun want you to get used to that
AML6349: Me either.
AML6349: Those 3 hours felt like much more - I woke up and was wide awake.
SurvivorGracie: must be you slept pretty hard then
AML6349: I think so.
AML6349: I wasn't grumpy at all - was full of energy.
AML6349: It was nice.
AML6349: I actually took a shower at 5:30 AM. lol
SurvivorGracie: .. I was grumpy today
AML6349: Was work better today>?
AML6349: Minus the >
SurvivorGracie: lol .. a litle bit .. though the clerk/typist called out sick again
AML6349: Weird
SurvivorGracie: and the one with the broken leg probably won't need surgery ..so that's good!
AML6349: That's definitely good news.
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. she was very happy
SurvivorGracie: they fixed it up and put it in a brace
SurvivorGracie: she won't even have a cast
SurvivorGracie: just the brace
AML6349: Very cool
SurvivorGracie: yeah .. I can't imagine how icky it would be to have a cast on your whole leg
AML6349: Have you ever broken a bone?
SurvivorGracie: I shattered my ankle in college
SurvivorGracie: ice skating
AML6349: Ouch! I haven't.
SurvivorGracie: lol .. I was on crutches FOREVER
AML6349: Did it hurt a lot?
SurvivorGracie: lol
SurvivorGracie: and I'm a BABY
AML6349: Ya know the worst pain I've ever been in?
SurvivorGracie: what?
AML6349: Gallstones.
AML6349: It was 10x more painful than my 40 hour labor.
SurvivorGracie: wow
AML6349: At least with contractions, the pain comes & goes, you have a small break... but the gallstones would be an attack of non-stop horrible pain for 3 - 4 hours. I remember crying to Don that I wished I were dead.
SurvivorGracie: aw .. *hugs*
SurvivorGracie: that does NOT sound like fun
AML6349: *HUGZ*
AML6349: It definitely wasn't - but I ended up having my gallbladder removed in January 2002. I call it my lucky operation cuz I got pregnant a month later. lol
SurvivorGracie: aw .. yay :0
SurvivorGracie: I'm out for a little bit :0
SurvivorGracie: *hugs*
AML6349: I am too, I think I'm gonna go to bed. Sweet Dreams when you get that far, talk to you tomorrow!!
