"I'm So Excited" - Pointer Sisters, 1982

I'm still a bit embarrassed that I've gotten so "into" Big Brother this summer, here in the UK. But after resisting all of the other BB's that preceded this one, I finally succumbed to Big Brother #6. It appeals to the former-psychology-student in me. The group dynamics have been absolutely fascinating! Alliances. Disagreements. Ambiguous sexuality. Distrust. Friendships. Fun with wine bottles. This BB has had it all!

Tonight is the final night. Who is going to win? According to the BBC, it's too close to call this afternoon. There are only 4 "Housemates" left -- Anthony, Eugene, Kinga, and Makosi. I hope Eugene wins. I figure it's between him and Anthony. Eugene deserves all £100,000. But at least he's guaranteed £50k!

John will be driving over from the London area after work today, and we're geared up to watch the show tonight -- while munching on our favoUrite Chinese goodies from Marks & Spencer. What a great start to the weekend!

But we can't help but wonder what it would be like to be without music most of the time (the housemates only rarely had any music played for them in the Big Brother house) -- much less be without any news at all from the outside world -- for so long. This is their 78th day in captivity! Amazing...

No wonder Makosi's weave has failed her! And, by the way, do you think she's really an actress, as some think, rather than a cardiac nurse in High Wycombe? I'm just not sure at all anymore!
