Big Brother Craze

Today’s been mostly a day of quiet talks, and contemplation, and the typical smack talk disguised as strategy discussions. Chelsia did make a small effort to go about getting votes, but in the end, even she knew it was a lost cause.

Enter Sheila to cause some drama. I know, I was shocked too. (For those not used to my snark, that was sarcasm. The sound you heard - my eyes rolling.) She’s not even on the block, not even in danger this week, and she’s trying to position herself to remain that way next week. I think. Who knows with her, she’s wacked! Anyway, she and Natalie team up their doublespeak, and get into Sharon’s head suggesting that Chelsia and James and Josh are working to flip the house and get her out instead of Chelsia. Not exactly, but then again, who can understand what goes on in Sheila’s head…

Case in point - Chelsia told her not to use the single mom card, which she does at least 80 times a day. She even went so far as to say today that no one wants to sit next to her in the final two because they’d give the money to the single mom. I thought we already evicted Amber… James also suggested today that she drop the talk about her book deal, because it could be looked on badly. Guess what she’s all pissed off about now? Yup. How dare he tell her that she should watch what she says about that. Why wouldn’t they give her the money? After all, she’s a single MOM, and 45 frickin years old!

She annoyed me in the show tonight too, when James and Chelsia were laughing and joking about being put up - called them childish and overboard. I guess I am too, cuz I thought it was funny - I even mentioned it at the time in my spoiler post! Just because they didn’t break down at the THOUGHT of being nominated like certain 45 frickin year old single mom’s with book deals that we know of…

Anyway - there doesn’t seem to be any blowups in the works, though in the midst of the Sheila Natalie constantly working over Sharon all day and telling her a variety of things to try and sway her into a ‘girls alliance’, she did have a bit of a breakdown.

It’s the first time we’ve really seen anything get to her, and she poured out her soul and a bucketful of tears to Joshuah. She says she’s better now, and has regained her power that she has hidden in her Blue Blankie. Or something.

Natalie and Sheila are they’re typical smug self, telling each other they’ve got this in the bag. As for me, I hope the hags GET the bag this next week. Is it time for a fast-forward yet? No? DAMN. For the record, though - I do expect a fast forward, not tomorrow, but two weeks from now. It would be the same time frame as before - going from 6 houseguests to 4 all in one night. So tomorrow, we go from 8 to 7, next week from 7 to 6, then the following week from 6 to 4. Of course, I could be completely wrong, and they might not even do a Fast Forward this year. Who knows?

Those surprises I promised are still coming and in the works. Keep checking! (grin)
