MORNING 6:15 a.m.
Our first HG to get up this morning is Eric. He got up, made his bed, headed to the kitchen to clean it and make coffee and was in the gym working out by 7:00 a.m. (while he is working out, he is wearing his hat backwards – that signals to his kids he is thinking about them.) Sarah is up now and while Eric is cooking breakfast he tells Sarah that “you guys are not allowed to have sugar after 10pm because it makes you too hyper.” Sarah responds “I kept telling them to be quiet before or they were gonna wake you.” (and so??)
Who will be the first one of ‘them’ to go?
Sarah says to Eric: “I can't imagine who would be the first one of us to go.” Eric: “There is some discussion about Jennifer, because she is the one who actually said she saw Michael slam...” Sarah: “I heard her talking about that.” Eric: “She was crying and I comforted her for about 30 seconds, then she said she was afraid I was going to get ‘my’ a** kicked.” Sarah: “Well, Ivette is probably ‘my’ threat in this house, whether she shows it or not, she gets jealous.” Eric: “April always defends Jennifer.” Sarah: “I trust April, there are people that I do NOT want to go...” Eric: “I know what you mean, I like Maggie.” Sarah: “I like Maggie too, she hasn't done a thing.” E: “and James, how could I let James go? If anybody has been my boy in this place it's James, dude, he proved it yesterday. You know what I like about James, he's a lot like me, and he’s straightforward.” Sarah: “He says what's on his mind without being an a-hole. I like Rachel, but she makes me nervous.” Eric: “Rachel has that look like...” Sarah: “Like she is ALWAYS thinking.”
Eric continues talking about Janelle. He says “she is such a strong player; I didn't have a deal with her. When I spoke to her in the HoH room, I told her that just because I put her up doesn't mean I want her out this week.” Sarah: “I don't get Kaysar.” Eric: “I wouldn’t trust him as far as you can through him.” Sarah: “He told me not to trust you guys.” Eric: “He's playing every side of the fence.” Sarah: “He just floats around, that's what I thought Jennifer was going to do.” Eric: “I think she still does that, she goes with the flow, she is digging her own hole.” Sarah: “If I do not win the money, I don't want to be the first person to go after these guys.” Eric: “But you figured out the gym right away, like I said certain people step up. I think James was really happy when he won POV.” Eric says “then there’s Beau, how do you get rid of Beau?” Eric says that he doesn’t think Mike is that bad of a guy, Sarah says “I do!” Eric says that when certain people get in certain situations, their true character comes out (uh, yes, take a look in the mirror). And he has some real character flaws. Sarah: “I really think he might have something wrong with him.” Eric has said several times that he is scared to death of Janelle. Both he and Sarah agree that Howie is a cool guy and Eric is still pumping up James to Sarah.
MORNING 9:00 a.m.
Most HG’s have risen. James is telling Eric and Rachel that he just realized that in the POV competition that Michael was just 13 seconds behind him, he thought it was Janelle. They go on to bash Janelle, because Eric is so ‘scared’ of her. Eric says “I wouldn’t do her for practice.” James said “She is one of those people who works so hard at being lazy that if she was just…” Eric interrupts “focused, yah I agree.” Rachel says “She could be a doctor or CEO.” James says “If she was a doctor or a CEO, she would have real plastic surgery, not a $13 boob job.” Eric moves on to talk about Jenn and the whole “she was crying for about 30 seconds and I went to comfort her…”, and then he says “Ivette is very emotional, she reminds me a lot of me.” Rachel tells Eric she would like to see him in the top 5, at least. Eric says his choice for top 5 are Rachel Howie, James, Ivette, Maggie and of course himself.
(After Maggie said yesterday she wasn’t going to gossip anymore), she tells Eric and Rachel that she was up until 1:30 a.m. because of the noise being made by Howie, Janelle and Mike. Rachel says: “they left the kitchen a mess.” Maggie said “Mike hasn't done a dish since he got here so...” Eric: “I knew he was done when he asked to make the sauce, I asked him how long he needed and he said 20 minutes and he took an hour and 20 minutes.” Maggie says that Mike is arrogant to the point of being unsafe.” Eric says “he is ignorant.”
Just before 10:00, April is up and about. Eric repeats for the third time “no more candy for you girls after 10:00 p.m.” Ivette now comes in and says “Eric why do you have cold sores all over your mouth?” Eric says “its stress, it’s the same stuff I have on my arm.”
MORNING 10:00 a.m.
Right at 10:00 – we hear BB: “Good morning HG’s, the Veto ceremony will start in 90 minutes.” Here is some juicy morning news for you, Howie has just announced that he s*** his underwear, but sadly they were Kaysars underwear. Sarah says they should bio hazard the house; bleach the house because he has just left the underwear ‘somewhere’. April says they will get him a new pair.
Howie goes into the gold room where Janelle and Mike are and flips the lights on. Howie tells them about crapping in Kaysar's underwear on national TV. Howie asks Janelle and Michael to kiss for him - they don't. Howie is doing the bit from The Kids in the Hall. He and Mike both start to sing, and then of course we get FISH. Mike asks Howie if he wants to shave his armpits and eat the hair. Howie says, "I'll shave your armpits but I won't eat the hair.”
Ivette comes into the kitchen and says she is not happy with the quality of someone's dishwashing. Eric tells Ivette it is too early in the morning for her rants. Ivette says "oh it isn't too early for your ten minute spiels?” Maggie is looking on in surprise.
It’s just after 11:00 and Howie is whispering to Rachel that Kaysar told him “there is a wild card out there, put there to disrupt the pairs.” Kaysar walked in, so Howie changed the subject. In the meantime, Eric and Maggie are talking and saying that “James is dangerous and has to go.”
On the hammock are James, Sarah, Ivette and Beau. Ivette tells Beau to go get ready for the POV ceremony. BB tells Michael to change batteries, and James says “yea, you stupid worthless f***.” Ivette says that when Mike leaves she will not get off the couch. Sarah says she might just hug the other HG’s but not Mike and James says he will just stand up. Ivette says she wants to tell Janelle to keep her bags packed. James says if Janelle gets HOH, “people think she'll put up Eric and Ivette, but I think it will be me and Eric she puts up.” They all start to say how they will need a vacation after this is over. James says he wants to read the news.
Eric and Maggie are in the HOH whispering about getting James on the block. Eric says as soon as you put him up, I drop the bomb to Ivette about James being Ashleas second vote. Maggie wants Rachel or April to get HOH because she knows Rachel won't put her or Eric up. Eric tells her that he tried to bait Sarah this morning, talking about the finals and how Sarah said she wouldn't get rid of Maggie…then Sarah came into HOH. Maggie tells her they are talking about Michael and how he may do something stupid.
Just before 12:00 the HG’s are locked down outside. AFTERNOON 12:00 – Veto Ceremony
The HG’s were all called into the house and the veto ceremony was promptly at noon time and we got FISH. When the feeds return, most of them are on empty rooms and one is on Howie and Kaysar, Kay is laying down on one of the beds. Howie talks about Kaysar's faith and how he many times a day he prays. He asks Kay “does God ever talk back to you?” Kaysar says “if you pay attention, you get signs.” Mike comes in and Howie asks if Mike and Kaysar ever shared the same woman in a sexual way, Kaysar says “how could we do that? We just met each other.” The feeds switch to the outside and Eric is in the pool saying “I couldn’t think of what to write down when I was asking for stuff as HOH, so I put down a raft.” He says how hot it is (and it is hot here today!), that the pool water is around 82 degrees. James mentions that BB yells at them because when they are told to go out for lockdown they need to get their a** in gear and go, and not take their time finishing up whatever they are doing.
Inside Howie and Janelle are talking about who they deem the strong people in the house. Howie says he thinks James, Maggie and Kaysar are tough. Janelle says “James is tough, but it is too early for him to go.” She says she would put up Eric and Ivette, saying “it doesn’t really matter because Eric is going after me anyway.”
Howie is outside at the table with Mike and Janelle, he is teasing them saying "I know you guys got something going on! It's like a little child hood crush, I can tell." They are laughing. Howie continues "well we'll see when you all go out to one of Janie's clubs and all the guys are trying to get with her or vice-versa, all the chicks going after Mike." They are laughing hysterically at this. He says “I’m a weatherman, I predict things, I predict a 50/50 chance you guys will make it.”
James says he really wants HOH so he can go nap alone anytime he wants. Jennifer says "I just want it once before I go home; if I get nominated then I'm SOL." James says "just because you are nominated, doesn't mean you are going home." She says "from what I've heard in this house, when I do get nominated I am going home." James: "what have you heard?" Jenn: "Oh I don't want to talk about it." James: "well I do, because I don't know what's going on." Jenn: "yes you do, you're lying." James says "I really don't think I am told everything even though I talk to the 'major players'."
I just tuned in to James in bed and Jenn sitting there talking to him in the bedroom. James saying that when he talked to Ashlea, he would sit and listen to all her stories and that he caught her in a bunch of lies. He says "she told me she moved out of her house at 15, went to school, held 3 jobs...that kind of person is scrappy and will do whatever it takes." James says he doesn't feel like he is playing a game yet, that he just asks people questions to get to know them and see what makes them tick. Jenn says: "word around the house is you are playing the game, hard." James: "wow, that's really weird, cuz I'm just here having fun. But, it's just someone's perception." Jenn is spilling it to him how everyone is scared of him because he is serious and smart. He just kind of choked on those words. James and Jenn are whispering, really low, saying how they will be sequestered after being evicted; Jenn says she didn't think so. James: "They did that on BB5." Jenn says "I didn't watch much of BB5." Jenn says "I heard that certain people in the house are going to nominate me and Sarah." James said "why?" Jenn says "that's what I heard, out of the 10 people we are the shy, quite ones, they want all the loud ones around. I think this whole season is a popularity contest.”
Now Rachel and Kay are in the bedroom with James and Sarah, talking about the subway doors. James says once they start to eliminate cots and HG's they will pull the wall forward and open the doors. Kaysar says: "you think they will just move the whole wall?" James says it's a set; they can do whatever they want. Rachel says maybe it will be a bowling alley or a disco hall. While they are talking in the bedroom, Jennifer is giving James a manicure, while he lies in his bed, and his free hand is draped over her leg. Jennifer said something about when she sucked her thumb when she was little, James says "I didn't suck my thumb; I sucked other people’s thumbs. When we were in line at the grocery store I would suck the thumb of people in line." Jennifer says: "those weren't thumbs." Kaysar was disgusted and said "I think you people are programmed to always talk about things in a sexual way.”
3:00 p.m.
Everyone left the bedroom, leaving Jenn and James alone once more. James wants to get back to the conversation they were having earlier about why she thinks that her and Sarah are the likely nominations. He tries to get her to tell him who told her that. Jennifer says she never gives the names of the people that tell her things. James asks her why she doesn’t go after the people that want to put her up, play strategically rather than by popularity. Jenn says she doesn’t want to rock the boat. James asks why she has given up. She says if she did it strategically she would get burned because it would be the person who is calling the shots right now. Darn, Rachel comes in and interrupts them showing Jenn her toes and saying one of them needs something, so the 2 girls go to the bathroom to fix and polish Rachel’s toes.
Janelle and Mike are in the kitchen, Mike swoops towards her for a kiss she says "they can see us" so he just kind of passes her and says "it figures." Janelle gets a bite to eat and heads toward the gold room, Mike not too far behind. Once inside the room Mike is putting something on the door, looks like to lock it. Janelle asks Mike "if they ask you to come back would you?" Mike says "under certain circumstances, perhaps." Janelle and Mike are staring at one another; Mike says "can you tell me what I am thinking?" Janelle says: "yes, but I'm not gonna say." Mike: "oh you think I was thinking about 'that'?...No I was thinking about the coffee shop down the street. I miss good coffee." Janelle says: "All the people that work at the Starbucks near me are a bunch of Cubans." Janelle was called to the DR.
4:00 p.m.
Beau and Eric are talking about Kay in the kitchen; Beau is saying that Kay said something outside about how much cussing everyone does. Eric says "where does he come from that no one cusses? A finishing school? I mean come on, you've seen me, I don't always have to cuss, but there are times that I do. It's part of American Culture!"
