Big Brother Craze

Everyone is in good moods (or faking it well) and outside with Ryan to take their pictures. For more on what’s going down - hit the cut, kids!

And as of now - James might have pulled this off! I do not know HOW this happened, exactly, but man. Chelsia was just in talking to Sheila, and apologized for the comment that made Sheila so angry (playing the single mom card) after the POV. She explained how she meant it, and basically appealed to Sheila. It seems they parted on good terms.

The last big of conversation with James, Natalie and Sheila had then promising to save him, and then when someone walked by switching to “you’re going home, I’m sorry” with a covert wink from Sheila. You know, she flipflops more then… well, Natalie. I’m not sure WHO to believe at this point. I do know that Sharon seems oblivious to all of this going down. Josh is stroking her blankie ego and talking about what they’re going to do next week when she wins HOH, then going right back to Sheila and Natalie and working them.

Say what you will about Josh - the boy’s got game! A secret alliance with Ryan (about which Ryan has NOT told Mattie and Adam, so he’s pretty solid there), James/Chelsia his primary alliance, with Sharon on the outskirts, and now he’s working Natalie and Sheila as well, appealing to them as one of the girls…

And now he’s working Adam too - until Sharon interrupts, of course. I swear, my head is SPINNING. As of now, I think the votes are as follows:

Evict James: Mattie
Evict Sharon: Josh, Chelsia, Natalie, Sheila

Adam is riding the fence and hasn’t said which way he’s going to go. James talked to Ryan, and said that if it came down 3-3, he’d seriously consider keeping James over Sharon. It’s only 3pm on Tuesday though, which means a full 24 hours of scheming and such to go!

Meanwhile, James and Chelisa are very aware that everyone might be playing them. They’re not getting their hopes up until the vote goes down. They’re not overly confident at all, and in between doing what they can to swing the votes their way, they’re having a lot of talks together, cuddling and spending time together in case James does go home.

Though - Ryan and Matt just cornered Sheila in the boat room - and the feeds cut away! AUGH!

And now Mattie works Natalie, with Sheila’s help - as Sharon confronts Josh in the spa room. Lawdamercy! I’m not sure how it’s going down now… Matt keeps promising to vote Sharon out if it’ll prove to Natalie that he didn’t make out with her. (Does anyone else have the feeling that Matt has done this ‘i didn’t cheat’ tapdance before? It comes WAY to easy…)

So Mattie threatened Natalie that they wouldn’t be partners anymore if she didn’t vote his way… then sent Adam in to tell her that he lied to James about voting. Natalie looks like she bought it - but not sure. (…sigh. poor Natalie.)

Meanwhile, James and Mattie are arguing a bit, just in the “You want me out so bad? Why you working the vote?” and Matt turned it around to the Matt and Natalie deal, and Sheila is telling Sharon not to go crazy, and Chelsia comes in and Sharon’s upset that people are saying she’s lying (…Matt! DUH. Come on people!) Chelsia leaves, and Sharon places the blame of all this on James. She’s freaking out. Seriously - people, turn on the feeds if ya got em - the house is on FIRE! AGAIN!

Oh how I love this game!

Oy - SO current vote tally - the only one I’m sure of is that Chelsia will vote to save James. Ryan will save James if it’s a split vote. People are still working it, all over the place as Ryan, Matt and Natalie just said James is gone, but now James is working Natalie and Sheila to at least make it a split vote.

OY!
