Jordan is telling Jeff that her dream job would be to be a dental hygienist because they work regular hours and earn good money -- she wouldn't need a man to support her if she got a divorce. Um, lofty goals. For me, a dream job isn't something which is entirely doable.
My dream jobs: Bestselling novelist, working with big cats or doing studies of wild animals in a faraway land. Oh, maybe I'll just be a ballerina!
Here's what's been happening in that Big Brother House of Turning Tides:
- Jessie whined a lot that his neck has been bothering him. He blames the problem on having to look up so much during the HOH comp. @@
- Kevin told Jessie his goals in life are/were: get on Big Brother, work for an ad agency, and have a family.
- Chima denied anything is going on between her and Russell. After all, he's only 25. Oh, five or six years difference. She's not even old enough for it to be cougar lust.
- Ronnie kept trying to be Michele's buddy and confidant.
- She doesn't seem to be buying what he's selling.
- The veto players were chosen -- Jessie, Kevin, and Michele.
- Jessie fears that if wins the veto and saves Ronnie, Russell might put Natalie on the block.
- Kevin told Michele she yelled NO in her sleep last night. She's done that before. Hmmm ... maybe she thought Ronnie was sneaking into her bed or something.
- They've all been talking about the secret power and calling it the wizard. Jeff said America hates him and he's not the wizard.
- I think he's wrong and lying.
- Jessie, out last year in the fourth week, is scared someone will use the wizard power and get him evicted this week (week 4). He wants Russell to throw the veto to him so he can keep the nominations as they are.
- Jessie told Michele everyone is sticking to the plan to vote out Ronnie.
- We know how well these folks stick to a plan!
- Chima is the host for the PoV comp. She comes complete with a toga.
- I guess now that they've graduated, they can have a toga party.
- TOGA, TOGA, TOGA
- Ahem. Just reliving the 80s for a bit.
- Michele won the veto and had Ronnie at her side begging her to save him almost immediately.
- He told her she can prove she wants to be a part of the five by using it.
- The comp had something to do with counting (feeds were blocked) rats, graves, feathers, etc.
- Not feeling really successful, Ronnie worked on Chima to go work on Michele to save his butt.
- Natalie told Jessie he should go to the diary room to complain about Kevin eating grapes while a Have Not.
- Michele told Jeff she won't be using the veto.
- Michele really, really doesn't like Ronnie.
- Michele and Jeff talked and talked ... more than they've talked so far in the game.
- Jeff said that unless she was on the block with Jordan, he wouldn't vote for her to go home.
- New alliance in da house! Jeff, Jordan, Michele ... with a bit of Russell on the fringes.
- I think Russell will remain loyal for the most part as long as he can with Jessie. But I don't think he has any loyalty to Natalie, Lydia, or Chima.
- So, there you go. I think we'll see the noms remain the same this week. At least until the coup d'etat.
Late once again (I wish they'd do this later on Saturdays as I'm just getting in) -- Michele won the power of veto.
More later!
Oh, geez. Jessie and Natalie apparently are too good for the Have Not room. They refuse to sleep in it. Now BB won't let them sleep anywhere else but the bedroom at night, so they're up all night. Is this going to go on all week?
Here's what's been going on in that Big Brother House of People of Suspected Vampires (most are still up when it's going on 4 AM there):
- Jeff is great in the kitchen. Chima keeps telling him he should try out for Hell's Kitchen. I think he should just take over Jackie's Kitchen ... maybe in a cute little pool boy toy outfit. Oops, I digressed.
- Chima and Natalie are upset that Russell put Ronnie on the block. They think Russell was unnecessarily mean in his speech. But they will put on happy faces because they fear going on the block if he gets himself off.
- They both think if the veto is won, it can't be used as one of them or Jessie might go up.
- Natalie says sleeping in the Have Not room will ruin her chances at PoV. Jessie says the food will upset his system and ruin his chances at PoV.
- Aw, poor babies. It's a shame that they're the first ones in this position, eh? After all, no one else has had to eat slop (and squid and squash), take cold showers, and sleep in the Have Not room. It sucks to be the first, huh?
- They did their little Jessie and Natalie Show (which I've tried to ignore before) making a plea for votes for the secret power.
- Jessie told Natalie it might be time to distance themselves from Ronnie.
- Lydia told Russell he didn't have "the balls" to put up Jessie or Natalie.
- Russell told her she'll be safe, he only wants Ronnie out. Lydia said that if Jordan was on the block she could just sit there and look pretty once again and Ronnie would go.
- Russell's intent on getting Ronnie out this week -- before the first hamster is sent to the jury house.
- Ronnie and Chima think whoever is portrayed as the underdog will win the power -- they say that's why Kris Allen won American Idol.
- Jeff said he's a sucker for voting for the underdog.
- I say it's because Underdog fights Riff Raff and I don't like no Riff Raff (Jessie and Natalie!).
- Michele told Ronnie she thinks he's a liar.
- You don't say!
- Russell told Natalie and Jessie that everyone in the house wants Ronnie out. He wants them to go with the flow.
- Ronnie campaigned with Michele for her vote. He told her his loyalties are with Jessie, Natalie, Chima, and her.
- Michele still doesn't trust him. Good.
- Ronnie told her if he leaves this week, Russell will flip the alliances. Now, would that be a bad thing? Not for me, no. And, actually not for Michele. She's a peripheral player at the best. She can be peripheral for either side and the target (or lack thereof) wouldn't change one iota.
- Chima wants Lydia to go home this week, but says she'll vote the way Russell wants.
- Jeff and Jordan miss having Casey in the house. He was entertaining.
- Jordan told Jeff, "Surely they (America) won't vote for Jessie (for the secret power)." Heh. She thinks that this coming Thursday could be the "night of their lives." Methinks she's right. I think Jeff has it in the bag.
- Chima and Russell joked that if Jordan wins the power, she won't know how to use it and will ask Jeff for advice ... thus losing the power.
- Kevin told Natalie that he hasn't heard Ronnie specifically say anything bad about her but that he stirs up trouble in the house on the whole.
- Kevin said that if he wins PoV, he won't use it. He shook hands with Jessie. Ronnie is the one who will get voted out (as long as the nominations remain the same).
- Jessie, for all of his great intentions when first being a Have Not, fussed on and off ever since becoming one.
- Ronnie is sure that America will vote for someone who can think out the power ... you know, someone like him.
- Now Natalie and Jessie have flipped. They want to keep Ronnie.
- @@
- Jessie fussed about how he was portrayed last year and how America's Player did him in.
- As I post this, Jessie, Natalie, and Chima are still up scheming. They want to keep Ronnie now and go against Russell's wishes.
- They think if he can win over Michele's vote, they'll have the majority.
- We'll see.
After a long feeds block, we're back. Now I'm just waiting for confirmation of the nominations.
Sounds like Ronnie is on the block, Jessie and Jordan are safe. I will update this post when I hear for sure.
Okay, confirmation -- Lydia and Ronnie are on the block. Lydia is supposed to be the pawn. She is NOT happy. Ronnie is nowhere in sight.
After a night of being rained on, swung in circles, and being thumped by a disintegrating foam rubber covered diploma, many of the hamsters are licking their wounds and being a bit subdued today. Here's what's happened in that Big Brother House of Exorcist Projectiles today:
- They've been speculating a lot on the "secret power." I know as I listened, this morning someone nailed the coup d'etat exactly. But I can't recall who it was.
- I plea sleep deprivation.
- Ronnie and Chima think the stray vote to keep Casey was Jeff.
- Oh, c'mon. Jeff is so sweet on Jordan that their thought is ludicrous.
- Natalie doesn't think it's fair that the Have Nots started a day early this week.
- I'm sure she wouldn't have a problem with it if she was a Have.
- Russell told Jeff that Jordan put his name in the cap for Have/Have Not and that he was chosen to Have Not, only saved when everyone said he had the comp so rough he deserved a break.
- Jordan only put his name in there because she didn't want people to think she was playing favorites. She had decided it wouldn't be fair for the Brains (including Ronnie) to be on slop two weeks in a row, so left them out.
- Jessie told Jeff he owed him one (or two or three) for going on slop after they threw Jeff's name out.
- America chose squash and squid for the Have Nots.
- Russell reiterated to Jeff that he wants Ronnie out this week and that he will be keeping his word.
- Russell says he himself is a Christian and he was offended by Ronnie swearing to God and on the bible for lies.
- He considers it an insult to his religion.
- Jeff and Russell create their own secret alliance -- The Hot Guys Alliance.
- @@ (Well, Jeff maybe. I wonder what Russell looks like with hair.)
- Jessie got all grumpy about his food (or lack thereof).
- Jeff thinks that Jessie should be glad that he has the squid and squash, not just BB slop.
- Ronnie keeps campaigning for a Lydia ouster with Russell, Jessie, Natalie ... anyone who will listen to him.
- I think it's behavior solely to deflect the target away from himself. I believe he might have vibes that Russell's not too keen on the dorkapotamous.
- Ronnie told Russell that he's afraid that if he goes on the block, he'll go home.
- I say, "It sounds like a plan!"
- Ronnie threw Jordan and Jeff under the bus, too.
- I think if we give him enough time, Ronnie would offer up his wife as a sacrificial lamb.
- Russell told Ronnie he doesn't need to worry this week.
- Russell told Michele that Ronnie's going home this week and she's the first person he's telling.
- Lydia told Russell that his now ex-clique mates had said they were going to put him on the block.
- Natalie and Chima trashtalked Lydia.
- Same old, same old.
- The nominations should be later tonight.
- I do think Russell's ultimate target is Ronnie. How he'll going about doing the deed, I don't know. I think he'll put up Ronnie and perhaps Lydia.
- But don't quote me on it.
