Since I know how much you all love me gettin' into these competitions I decided to enter another one. DON'T GROAN! You'll like this one cause you won't have to vote on it.

I'm trying out for Big Brother. Bob and I are renting tapes and reviewing strategies now.

I had to think about it because I'll be gone for 3 months. And during that time I'll have no connection with the outside world at all. There's also the fact that I'll have to give up cheap Mexican food and possibly even be eating something they call "slop" if I don't win food comps. All I know about slop is....it gives you gas something fierce. You WILL be seeing the ugly side of me when it comes to competing for food. Nobody but nobody takes away my vittles.

The upside is... there are cameras watching you 24/7. I live for camera time. The show is on 3 nights a week and showtime runs a live feed several other nights a week so Bob can keep an eye on me. Although I have a feeling from his level of excitement over 3 months of freedom that's NOT what he's planning to do. No doubt my house will become "MAN CENTRAL", filled with goofy men, football games, red meat, fried foods, and burping.

When you fill out the application there are all kinds of questions from what size bra do you wear (new unders????) to what are you afraid of. I am NOT telling them about the clowns. I know this show. If I tell them I'm afraid of clowns or pygmies....they'll put one or both in the house with me. They also want to know if you have a blog or a My Space, what foods you like to eat, how you feel about being watched. yadda yadda.

I have to take a complete medical and mental exam from their own doctors. Not to fret, I think I can fake my way through the mental one. The medical one I have to start working out for so I can be in shape not only for the exam but also so I can hold my own in the endurance comps with the young peeps. (which primarily populate the show).

So, if I make it in, are you guys gonna watch? STOP GROANING!

Cat, here's your reward for voting. (nobody but nobody, tell Milky I kidnapped her absolute man)

Dammit, I don't have a TV!! I know someone who does, though. Maybe we can throw Big Brother parties!
` Good luck - maybe you are willing to be as crazy as me.

` BTW, have you seen my corpse being defiled yet?
` I was actually away most of the weekend wearing a platinum blond wig for another project, but we never actually shot anything.
` Maybe we'll both be big stars one day?

It does have me worried that the norm on that show seems to be 20 something and single but then I know nothing about the show. I planned on watching it on Sunday but then forgot until after 9:00. Not to worry however.

If you make the show I promise to use Season Pass on DirecTV Tivo to never miss an episode. It will be a sacrifice as I stay away from reality shows but I got to believe you will make the show better than any comedy sitcom I have ever seen.

Milky is going to kill you with what happened to Absolute Man. I won't say a word...

Oh and good luck!

They ask your bra size? Your fears? I don't think Big Brother House has enough coffee to keep me enticed.

Good luck and I would watch you religiously too...that would be fun.

Crabby,

There's been some "suspicious" activity from some of your voters...that's why they're getting those screens.

I'll take the block down, but please only vote every 24 hours to make it fair for everyone.

I think it's 15 minute lunch man paying ya back for all those votes I gave to him. ;)

If you want to do BB crabby you go for it!
Personally I hope you get to do it but are evicted very soon, not first, because I won't be able to watch it over here and I'll miss you!!

Damn! This time it let me click thumbs up! Maybe they didn’t bar me from voting.

Big Bro, Crabby? Damn! Damn! And double damn! You are a glutton for punishment. (Of course, I also know a guy here in Louisville who is 68 and trying out for Survivor).

I'm back! Did ya miss me? We went to the Rusty Bucket for lunch. Ever heard of it? It's cool and they tell me it's a very good time on Friday night.

Omigod! I love my prize! He is so much less tempting like that. And I love calling him my bitch.

You are brilliant! And crazy! I hope Big Brother realizes this!

xoxoxoxoxoxo <<< for you!!

Seequin, if I'm on slop during one of those parties...eat for me. I'll live vicariously in my mind.

Barman, those 20 somethings don't worry me. If they start getting too tough I'll hit them with one of my special old lady gas bombs. That'll slow them down to a crawl.
That absolute man needed a good pair of britches. He was lookin chilly to me.

Emma, I'm hoping if I get in there they'll bring tons of coffee so I can keep up with these youngins. LOL! Believe me it will be very comforting knowing my friends are watching. Thank you! And let's hope I don't make a fool out of myself..or if I do that I at least get a prize for it.

Whoever is cheating...YOU SUCK AT IT! I'm still in second place. Dumb-head!

Milky, Abosolute man begged me to get him some britches and some lipstick. What could I do? He needed me. And you know what a caring, giving person, I am. Anyhow I owed Cat a favor.

It might be that other guy setting us up too. That Derek person...I heard from a reliable source, he's jealous of my rack. Or was it, Mac? Ah, well. No matter.

ebezp, you can't watch over there? Maybe somebody here could tape it for you? That would just awful if you couldn't be a part of it.

Nick, Mike had us barred from his site for suspicion of cheating. He has now removed the ban.

Teri, you're welcome. ((hug))

that would be way cool if you got on the show

but i wonder why they need some of that info they are asking you about

3 months away from my family? Where do I sign up?

I would love to see you on Big Brother 9, you could terrorize everyone like Evil Dick does and mess with their heads.
There is one thing tho....I'm a little concerned about the mental exam.lol

As long as you get all your Christmas shopping finished first.

I told my boss about your latest endeavor, after begging him to vote for you, he said "she really does need to get a job". I just laughed out loud. I told him, "if she got a job, what would we do for entertainment"? He thinks our family is strange.

Cadbury, I really wondered about the bra and swim suit size question but I've seen them do competitions where they provide the swim suits. Fears, I KNOW are gonna be part of a competition. I should tell them I'm afraid of cheap Mexican food. LOL!

Sign, want me to get you an app? We can pretend we don't know each other and be an alliance.

TC., Evil Dick has them all skittering like mice. He's been really nice lately though. did ya notice? And the man can cook! We've been watching the after hours shows to get strategy help and you catch a lot more there. I feel real confident about making it on the show because of my age. they like to keep it diverse and generally pick one oldie per show.

Manny, I don't know how to break it to you but...our family IS strange. The show isn't during the winter. It's a summer show. I'll be gone from end July through September. Something like that.

Oh I can hardly wait to see you on Big Brother!

What country will you be stranded in?

Do you know how to fish?

Can you start a fire?

How exciting, I watch that show all the time.


Pepper came to Dayton and spent about a week here.

We had a wonderful time.

Blog people are good people.


Oh, will you bring me back a conch shell?

I never watch Big Brother, but do catch the "special" parts of UK BB on the internet. But I promise to watch it if you get on.

Wait, they still have the shower cam on the BB your trying out for, right?

 

At 8/27/2007 6:35 PM, Blogger barman

Well don't look at me for the cheating. I have no clues. Besides, I am sure we could have had you up to at least 1,000 by now.

` I'll be having cheap Mexican at the party!!

` BTW, I suspected you were avoiding looking at my dead body post.... Now I KNOW you are!
` It's because you know you'll either giggle or scream and giggle at the same time!!

` Of course, I keep pestering you because I know you have an obsession with death and bodies buried in the cold cold ground... and HNT!! (It was in fact shot on Thursday!)

` PS Barman said he would have dug me back up too! No really!!
