Yesterday was a very stressful day. *I know its a game, but its fun to get into it* Anyway it was stressful because I feel like i've been crammed right into the middle man position. Voting Lil Steven last night only delayed my situation, it didn't solve it or make it better. Unless, there is a switch or a twist of some sort. I'm still in the middle of the Lucas side and the Ryan side. Hopefully my answer to Karen's question last night made an impact. We're too strong of a tribe and its ridiculous how hard Ryan and Lucas are playing right now. It's just not necessary yet. I may be digging my own grave by saying that but it's really not. We've got a strong tribe, we're winning challengs, if we start having decension we're going to lose that. Whatever....for all I know I might have just slapped a huge target on my back.
well, for now though, at least I get to stay in the good graces of both sides. I'm not ready to betray either one because in all honesty and as God is my witness and knows every inch of my heart, I like everyone left in this game. Sure I was (and still am to an extent) leary about Lucas, but he's been a bud, and I really feel like him and feel he's got my back. Now as for Big Steve, I really like him too but there's just something about him that I can't really put my finger on. The first time we ever really talked, he came at me with strategy, wanting to know where I stood in regards to Lucas. So i told him the honest truth....Lucas was my bud but I wasn't all that sure about him because of how hard he's playing the game. He agreed. He said we needed to watch out for him. He was all about strategy and staying in the game. Then last night he went on this whole spiel to me about how strategy is stupid and its just a game and for people to be worried is stupid....yada yada yada. I agreed somehwat; it's a game. But it's still a game of stratego, and it's part of the game to get into it and have feelings like that. I don't know, I just kind of felt slapped on the hand, and its not even so much that that bothers me. I mean, heck, I slapped everyone's hand at TC last night. What bothers me is that he was all gungho about the game before and now he's like....eh, let the game play itself. So know, I don't know how to play the game with him. Do I watch his back? Do I count on his protection? Do I discuss concerns with him?
*sigh*
I guess I can answer that myself. Big Steve is not someone I'm solidly aligned with. I mean, we said we'd stick together, but we've made no agreements of sorts. So I guess I'll just play my game and let Big Steve play how he will. I don't think it will get him very far though.
