12:46: Lessa stumbles to the computer and stars bleery-eyed and pounds a diet crack coke or two. Mutters that they’re fighting already and tries to catch up on what she missed. Stay tuned.
While Russell got up around 7:30 - he did not make the promised trip to HOH at 4am. The wakeup call came at a leisurely 9:30am for our happy hamsters, and morning routines began - on everyone’s mind? The HOH Lockdown - which began at 10:45. Ronnie remained on the bed, headphones on, stoic. Casey was the ringleader in insults, having them sing “rathole rathole” until BB told them to stop singing. They make fun of his CD again with “Lame, party of one.”
Natalie: I asked for NKOTB
Russell: party of two then!
at 11:04am - still on lockdown.
Jessie: I’m gonna flip out.
Russell: flip out on Ronnie.
Jessie: ‘m gonna flip out on the duck in the pool
Russell: he is kinda shady lookin…
Casey: Jeff, just treat me like a human.
Kevin (in the bed, ronnie on one side, natalie on the other) natalie are you touching me?
Natalie: I’m giving you this experience of cuddling with a girl..
Kevin: I know, you on one side, Ronnie on the other.
They talk about where they’ll sleep, and joke about putting Ronnie next to Russell… more of the same all around.
12:30 - HOH lockdown over. As they leave, Natalie asks Ronnie if Russell had talked to him, and he said yes, but don’t say anything because Russ would kill him. Natalie whispers the information to Jessie, who hits the nail on the head “He think he can tell people what to do through intimidation.”
Ronnie lays down on the livingrom couch while the houseguests begin to clean. I wake up to Laura starting more shit - telling Michele that Ronnie demanded Michele be put up with Russell if Laura won HOH, among other things. Ronnie calls out “Say what you want, Laura, it doesn’t make it true.”
Morning routines continue as houseguests get ready for the big day. And tada! We’re all caught up.
(anyone got a caffeine drip?
)
1:04 - Chima/Jessie/Jeff are at the table, others in the kitchen making lunch, Natalie’s in the shower, Lydia doing her makeup.
- while all is quiet, check out Ronnie’s HOH Blog.
Natalie is dressed like a girl! Though she’s trying to incorporate a bandana too. But as further proof that she IS a girl - we’ve got whaletail… Observe:

Viva la thong - heh.heh.heh.
Lydia is doing Natalie’s hair, and she says she can incorporate the bandana for her, and it’ll still look cute.
In the Posh room, Laura and Jordan are talking with Chima about their speeches tonight, so on, so forth. Laura’s going to implicate Ronnie’s lies into her speech somehow.
2pm: fish. Run-through?
2:10 - back, guess not.
Ronnie is pacing, eating an apple, in the living/dining room area. Most everyone else is dressing in the bathroom, or bedroom. Russell is ignoring him - unless no one’s looking, then they whisper quickly and laugh.
Jessie helped Jeff trim the back of his hair earlier, now he’s repaying the favor.
Casey’s no whereto be seen…
2:25 - Trivia.
3:36 - Feeds are back after the runthrough. Laura’s walking around in her slutty red dress, (HINT: IF you don’t want people to only notice your body and not anything else? try putting on something that leaves a little bit to the imagination. Otherwise? Don’t bitch. kaitnxbai!) Jordan’s getting ready, Chima’s chatting with them. Upstairs natalie and Kevin are playing chess, while Jessie rubs natalie’s shoulders. Jeff and Michele are at the kitchen bar, Ronnie’s pacing in front of the memory wall. General chitchat.
Jessie (the accents are back!): What’er yeh lookin fer?
Jeff: the soy!
Jessie: soy juice it is..
Jeff: be sure tis expired, i like th’kick!
Michele: Did you know there’s estrogen in soy milk?
Jeff: th’fuck does that mean? Am I gun’ave boobs?!
(much laughter)
And - Natalie/Kevin had a whisperfest, but I couldn’t hear what was said. We’re getting intermittent fishies again, as per usual for live show night.
4:12 - we have Trivia. I’m going to go ahead and set up the LIve Recapping post now!
3:38
The feeds are back - and they’re using a hair dryer to dry Natalie’s clothing -
3:39
Jessie: I slayed the dragon and just turned and saw you still falling into the water!
3:40
Natalie: it was more embarassing than anything! Can you imagine if that was live? i would have DIED… If that was live?
3:40
and we’re back on trivia again…
3:40
Interesting! bet that makes the end of the season blooper reel!
