ErinEngle: That's good!
onetz53: was feeling a little sick earlier but I think I'm better now
onetz53: blasted pollen

ErinEngle: O no!
ErinEngle: Im glad your feeling better!
onetz53: yeah, I think it's coming here tomorrow
onetz53: so I can't wait for that
ErinEngle: Whoo hoo!!!
ErinEngle: It's here now!
ErinEngle: Started about 5ish
onetz53: wo0t
ErinEngle: I just hope it stopes by 8am tomorrow morning!
onetz53: haha yeah evening/night rains are good
ErinEngle: I love night time thunder storms!
ErinEngle: Makes me sleep like a baby!
onetz53: me tooo
ErinEngle: How was your day otherwise
onetz53: it was good...continued writing some and got a quick run in
onetz53: chatted with scary Bud for a bit
onetz53: woohoo
ErinEngle: O!
ErinEngle: I beat he was the highlight of your day!
onetz53: oh yes
onetz53: nothing compares
ErinEngle: I had a HORRIBLE day at preschool! It was the day of bathroom accidents, fits, hitting, and biting!
ErinEngle: haha!
ErinEngle: Nothing compares to the nightmares that he gives you in your sleep!
onetz53: aw man, kids gone wild huh?
ErinEngle: They were HORRIBLE!!!
ErinEngle: One kid through a 40 minutes fit because we made her walk down the hall to the play room...
onetz53: oh man
onetz53: moody much?
ErinEngle: Not usually...
ErinEngle: She likes to ignore the teachers, but she's not normally that big of a mood attude!
onetz53: the pollen must be infecting her brain
ErinEngle: I hope that's the reason!
onetz53: haha
ErinEngle: I wish some more of our tribe would come online.
ErinEngle: Not that I don't love talking to you and Stephen, but I would like to meet everyone else too!
onetz53: haha yeah I've only talked to 3 or 4 people, y'all 2 included
ErinEngle: I talked to Tucker last night.
ErinEngle: I feel he's already up to no good.
onetz53: yeah I talked to him a little today
ErinEngle: He showed me a conversation he had with Zander and Zander was dissing me.
onetz53: Zander?
ErinEngle: I just don't get why he would show it to me...
ErinEngle: Zander was in my season.
onetz53: haha, why would he show you that?
ErinEngle: I dno't get it...
ErinEngle: Unless he was trying to start trouble...
ErinEngle: He serioulsy meet me not even 5 minutes before!
onetz53: wow, how random
ErinEngle: Kinda not a GREAT first impression.
onetz53: yeah that's really weird
onetz53: haha we were talking earlier and nothing felt shifty or anything in our convo
ErinEngle: Haha!
ErinEngle: Our converstion involved him telling me about his favorite pop group, which I checked out on youtube. I thought that was interesting.
ErinEngle: Then he told me about him and his gf going on a trip and having sex...
onetz53: I like that he's British <3
ErinEngle: And then it was the conversation...and then he went to bed.
onetz53: haha, he told me about his trip too
ErinEngle: I like British people! I wanna hear him talk!
onetz53: but left out the sex part
ErinEngle: Haha! Bummer!
ErinEngle: I know nothing about the trip...
ErinEngle: except they had lots of sex...
onetz53: haha, everything else must've been irrelevant
ErinEngle: Sure sounds like it!
onetz53: he actually didn't describe the trip much...just that he went with his gf to a bed and breakfast somewhere
onetz53: surprised he told a girl about having sex and not another guy like me
onetz53: haha
ErinEngle: I was kinda surpsied about that too!
ErinEngle: I thought he would want to brag
ErinEngle: Haha! So i gave my friend my gumbo recipe. I didnt think when I did it I should have given her sub text of what everything is...
ErinEngle: Because poor thing she has no clue what half of the ingredients are!
onetz53: hahaha
onetz53: what is gumbo, exactly?
onetz53: like soup sorta?
ErinEngle: Yeah
ErinEngle: Kinda like a soup, served over rice.
onetz53: oh ok
ErinEngle: It's a cajun dish.
onetz53: not sure if I've ever had gumbo
ErinEngle: o!
ErinEngle: I LOVE gumbo!
ErinEngle: I make it almost every other week!
onetz53 is available (8:40:02 PM)
no longer running
onetz53: I'll have to try it some time
ErinEngle: It's good!
onetz53: I love the picture Erik posted <3
ErinEngle: I do too!
ErinEngle: You look creepy!
onetz53: I do...that better not be my banner/avatar picture
ErinEngle: haha! I hope not!
ErinEngle: I beat he will use the same pic as last game...
onetz53: he's actually quite anal about pics being different every time
onetz53: haha
onetz53: unless you're Donna, of course
onetz53: because only one picture of her exists
ErinEngle: ook!
ErinEngle: besides the Sombrao pic!
ErinEngle: bad spelling I know
onetz53: I CANNOT FIND THAT PIC ANYWHERE
onetz53: it's driving me crazy
onetz53: I could've sworn I saved it to my comp
onetz53: and then I checked the ST forum and couldn't find it anywhere
ErinEngle: NOOOOO!
ErinEngle: Best pic ever!
onetz53: I know!
onetz53: I bet she deleted it or something lame
ErinEngle: darn you Donna!
ErinEngle: UGH! I thought I had it saved on my computer too...
onetz53: and then once she deleted it on the forum, she used her mind powers and deleted it off both our computers too
ErinEngle: She probably did!
ErinEngle: I beat so...
ErinEngle: She's good like that!
onetz53: curses
ErinEngle: sorry about that!
ErinEngle: I typed brb...but I never ssent it...
ErinEngle: Soemtimes I think I am blonde
onetz53: haha, no worries
ErinEngle: I was on skype on my phoen with a friend.
ErinEngle: The 15 minutes conversation turned into over a hour.
onetz53: wow
ErinEngle: It's partily my fault.
ErinEngle: I could talk someone death...
ErinEngle: So, Tom, would you wanna consider working together in this game?
onetz53: absolutely!
onetz53: you're one of the few people I've met in these games that I know I can just trust
onetz53: especially after what we went through last time
ErinEngle: Same here!
ErinEngle: One of the very few!!!
ErinEngle: Being loyal sometimes kicks me in the ass, but I can't imagine playing any other way!
onetz53: same here
onetz53: but yeah I'd be totally down for that
ErinEngle: Good me too!
ErinEngle: I'd really like that.
onetz53: sweet
ErinEngle: I also think we should get a few people with us if possible...
ErinEngle: I honestly really only know you, Stephen, and Morgan though.
ErinEngle: I don't know what Morgan is like in games, but she seemed really trust worthy to me so far.
onetz53: and the great thing is I don't think anyone else in this game knows about our previous game and how we worked together
onetz53: except Stephen I guess
onetz53: Morgan's totally loyal to a fault
ErinEngle: Stephen is too.
ErinEngle: Stephen won't use it against us...I can promise you that.
ErinEngle: I don't think they do.
onetz53: ok
ErinEngle: I would honestly be shocked if anyone knew about ST!
onetz53: yeah, it's kinda old news now
ErinEngle: It is, at least in my opinion.
ErinEngle: I don't really see neither of us being a threat in the beignning of the game. We're both active, on aim a good bit, and participate in the challenges.
ErinEngle: I'm sure someones just not gonna show up.
onetz53: so far Clayton's MIA
ErinEngle: HAs he even posted online?
ErinEngle: I've talked to hardly anyone on our tirbe...I never see any of them online...
onetz53: I am somewhat worried about being a 'threat' myself...because I've hung around this series the longest and everyone looks at me as the 'golden boy' or something
ErinEngle: I sure hope not!
ErinEngle: Did anyone in this cast play with you in the past?
onetz53: yeah
onetz53: I played All Stars with Morgan, Ashley, Andrew, Bridget, and Torah
onetz53: the last 3 being villains
ErinEngle: I have played with Andrew in the past, but I don't remember anything about him.
ErinEngle: I don't know Bridget.
ErinEngle: Torah seems a little bitchy to me, but maybe that was a bad first impression.
ErinEngle: I also don't know Ashley.
onetz53: yeah Torah can be a tough cookie to handle sometimes
onetz53: Andrew's a wild card...he can be loyal and funny or he can just be insane
onetz53: all I know about Ashley is that she's Allan's boss in real life
onetz53: haha
ErinEngle: I know we played together but I remember nothing about him.
ErinEngle: Haha!
ErinEngle: I knew they worked together and that was it...
ErinEngle: I still havent talked to Allan either...
onetz53: yeah haven't seen him on lately
onetz53: and you're right, hardly any heroes have been online!
onetz53: haha I hope that doesn't mean we're screwed in the challenges
ErinEngle: I hope not!
ErinEngle: Maybe once the game starts they will be online...
ErinEngle: I added the villians to a list to, I haven't talked to them, but I added them.
ErinEngle: And they always have a ton online.
onetz53: yeah, same here
onetz53: talking to Bud earlier, he thinks they have a huge advantage and will crush us
ErinEngle: Which is funny because I think we could be a really strong tribe.
ErinEngle: I don't feel we have a lot of major personailites, where they do.
ErinEngle: They are either gonna shock me and mesh well together or they are going to eat each other alive!
onetz53: yeah, I agree
onetz53: hopefully the latter
ErinEngle: I sure hope so!
ErinEngle: I have played with Jeffrey...he;s an ASS!
onetz53: haha what I've heard/learned of him is that he can be really friendly in conversation but will bust you in his journal
ErinEngle: O!
ErinEngle: He's so mean in his journal!!!
ErinEngle: About everyone!
ErinEngle: And you never know what he is thinking or planning.
ErinEngle: In the game I was in with him...he voted for a random person everytime...
onetz53: yeah
onetz53: haha, seriously?
ErinEngle: Yet, bitched about everyone on his tribe.
ErinEngle: He did!
onetz53: do you know any of the other villains?
ErinEngle: He wouldn't talk to anyone...so we kinda just keep voting people out and not telling him. Because you would message him and he would never message you back.
ErinEngle: I think I have played with RB in the past, but I don't remember anything about him.
ErinEngle: Megan, she did nothing till the final 6 in our game. She never participated in a challenge, wrote hardly nothing in her journal, and then she got lucky at a challenge and won immunity.
ErinEngle: Then people keep her around because everyone dislliked her and wanted to go to the final 2 with her, because they knew they could beat her.
ErinEngle: Joel is COCKY! I played with him and he won the game. He was really mean and cruel. I'm still shocked that he made it to the end of the game. Everyone disliked him, but for some reason they keep him around.
ErinEngle: I know about Juice, but I have never played with him. I know Stephen has played with him.
ErinEngle: I've never played with Katy, but I have been warned from people that know her that she is mean, bitchy, and would screw her mother over if it meant she lastest another vote.
onetz53: ugh, yeah she seems really...unpleasant
ErinEngle: Katy?
onetz53: yeah
ErinEngle: I've never talked to her.
ErinEngle: She was on skype once when everyone else was on. she wasn't very friendly
onetz53: just with everything she posts on the forum
ErinEngle: That too!
ErinEngle: Doesn't seem very happy, at all!
onetz53: so with Stephen, have you guys just been really good ORG friends for a while? saw your pics together on Facebook
ErinEngle: We have.
ErinEngle: We meet in like 2005 or 2006...
ErinEngle: Kinda like a similar situation to ST.
ErinEngle: We were playing a Survivor game and we kinda had no one and justs bonded together and somehow made it to the final 2 together.
onetz53: aw, yay
ErinEngle: We've always been friends, but over the past 2 years have gotten even closer.
onetz53: if only that could have been us
ErinEngle: iknow!
ErinEngle: We tried though!
onetz53: we did
onetz53: at least we went down fighting
onetz53: that's really cool though
onetz53: you heard about me/Feen meeting right?
onetz53 is available (11:41:26 PM)
no longer running
ErinEngle: You told me about it and then I remember seeing the pic on facebook
ErinEngle: that's so awesome!
onetz53: yeah that's right
ErinEngle: I love meeting new people!
onetz53: haha his girlfriend organized that whole meet-up for us
onetz53: we were too lazy to figure it out ourselves
ErinEngle: HAHAHAHAHAH!
ErinEngle: No way?!?!?
ErinEngle: That's a godo gf!
onetz53: yeah she's really cool and sweet
onetz53: they seem really great for each other
ErinEngle: Brittany right?
onetz53: yeah
ErinEngle: I remember him talking about her, we don't talk as much as we used to, but occasionally Feen and me will catch up.
onetz53: yeah he and I go through these hills and valleys
onetz53: haha there'll be weeks and months where we're both online a lot and chat pretty often
onetz53: and then we'll go through stretches where one of us or both are busy and then we don't talk as much
onetz53: but I pretty much know he'll always come back and we get all caught up
ErinEngle: That's what friends are for.
ErinEngle: stephen and me drifted apart at one part.
ErinEngle: I think most friendships are like that though.
onetz53: yeah, very true
onetz53: plus with Facebook it's pretty easy these days to just shoot someone a comment and usually get a response or something
onetz53: I try and do that with him when we haven't talked ina while
ErinEngle: HAHA! What did we do before facebook?
ErinEngle: My best friend REFUSES to get facebook.
ErinEngle: Yet, she asks me all the time about people and wants me to update her.
ErinEngle: I do the same thing with friends tough. If I haven't talked to them in a while then I will just send them a message on facebook.
onetz53: haha yeah I seriously can't remember how life operated pre-Facebook
ErinEngle: Me either. I remember the myspace days, but it's powers were no where near as great as facebooks!
ErinEngle: I'm always telling my parents about people in out tiny town of less than 1,000. My dad has finally stopped asking me how I know all this stuff. Because my response was always "On facebook."
onetz53: haha, same with my parents
onetz53: I wonder how long it'll take before my dad gets on FB
onetz53: I'm sure it can't be too long
ErinEngle: My dad has it, but doesn't know how to operate it.
ErinEngle: My mom just got her first email account a little over a week ago... Until about 2 months ago she didn't even know how to turn the computer on and off.
onetz53: yeah my mom will never operate a computer, ever
ErinEngle: I'm not sure if my mom will ever go past email...
ErinEngle: The only person she emails is me...
onetz53: that's a pretty big step!
ErinEngle: I get like 3 a day...a play by play of her daily life at home, with the dogs.
ErinEngle: It is! I got a 3 sentence e-mail from her today! I wasshocked!
onetz53: wow!
ErinEngle: I know! I typically get 5 or 6 words
ErinEngle: And I don't think she ever looks at the screen when she types...because most of the time I have no clue what she is saying...
onetz53: bahaha
onetz53: I actually tried teaching my mom to type a couple years ago but she basically determined she would just call people if she needed to contact them
onetz53: so that was that
ErinEngle: It took my mom 2 yearas to finally understand how to use voicemail on her cell phone. She can NEVER switch phones because then it will take another 2 years!
ErinEngle: HAHA!
ErinEngle: That's funny!
ErinEngle: My mom a few years ago was going to type a 1 paragraph letter...after 5 hours she said screw it and hand wrote it again.
onetz53: haha
onetz53: yeah my mom can't text on her phone at all and needs us to set her alarm on it
onetz53: good ole Mom
ErinEngle: My mom can't text either...
ErinEngle: And she doesn't even know her phone has an alarm!
ErinEngle: She accidently found a caculator on it a few weeks ago and called me all excited!
onetz53: that's hilarious
ErinEngle: O! Something even better!
ErinEngle: My mom and dad got so pissed when they quit putting the weekly tv guide in the Sunday newspaper.
ErinEngle: I told them they didn't need it because they had direct tv and had the guide feature.
ErinEngle: They had direct tv for 3 years and never knew the guide existed!
onetz53: wow
ErinEngle: And to this day they still have a hard time using it, but they are getting better.
onetz53: haha even my mom's mastered the guide
ErinEngle: Not my mom!
ErinEngle: and my dad has no clue about it!
ErinEngle: They were going to get tivo, and I was showing them the ropes and they freaked out and cancled the guy to come out for tivo.
onetz53: all this talk actually makes me scared for what we won't be able to figure out in 40 years
ErinEngle: O lord!
ErinEngle: i don't even wanna know.
ErinEngle: I have my iPhone and tivo mastered!!!
ErinEngle: I'm still iffy about some computer stuff...
onetz53: haha I'm totally ignorant on iPhone stuff since I don't have one
ErinEngle: Oooo! If you ever get a chance, get one!
ErinEngle: I had a blackberry before and I thought it was ok. Nope so hard! IPhones are so easy! it's the easiest phone that I have ever had!
onetz53: nice
onetz53: I do kinda want one but am stuck with the dinkiest phone known to man
ErinEngle: Why are you stuck with it?
ErinEngle: COntract?
ErinEngle: I orginally wasn't going to get one till June. I looked at them like 2 years ago, but didn't get one becaue it was so expensive. Then when I was in Vegas in October my Blackberry died! It was the 5th Blackberry in a year and half, so AT&T let me get a new phone without charging me the upgrade fee.
onetz53: well my dad just pays for all the phones and plans and stuff so he deals with all that...we can get 'better' phones if we pay for them, otherwise we get the dinky standard version
onetz53: ah well
ErinEngle: gtocha!
ErinEngle: Everyone in my family is on a different plan.
ErinEngle: I got mine in high school and have paid for it the entire time.
ErinEngle: My parents wouldn't want to pay for mine anyway. I have unlimited text, a ton of miniutes, and the internet.
onetz53: I'm thinking of moving out this summer and my dad's already told me I'd have to pay for my car's insurance if I do...I wonder if he'd make me pay for my phone too...hmm...
onetz53: ah the joys of adulthood and paying for stuff
ErinEngle: I lmoved into my own place in JUly. Before then I had always had roommates. It's expensive, but i love it!
onetz53: niiice
ErinEngle: My parents still pay my car insurance, but that's it. I think the only reason they do that is because they still want access to my truck...
onetz53: I'm kinda ready to move on
onetz53: I have a pretty great family but they can get repetitive...haha
ErinEngle: I beathey can. Your at that age too...
ErinEngle: i could never move back home...I'm not close with my parents, never have been and probably never will be. I moved out when I was 18.
onetz53: yeah, I just need money money money
onetz53: hopefully I can get a decent amount with this census job
ErinEngle: Money is the biggest issue!
ErinEngle: I hope so!!!
ErinEngle: Whenever, you do look to move out. PLan a $100 more a month than you think!
onetz53: yeah, def good advice
onetz53: I've never had my own place or shared one before, so I probably need to learn a lot haha
ErinEngle: Haha learn to cook and invest in ramen!
ErinEngle: Cheapest thing ever!
ErinEngle: I think I ate cases of ramen noddles my freshman year of college. I was trying to go to school full time, I had just moved out of my parents, and didn't have a full time job yet.
ErinEngle: It was about the only thing I could afford. I now can't stand the stuff!
onetz53: haha, yeah I bet
ErinEngle: If you ever live alone though, I don't think you could ever have a roommate.
ErinEngle: I don't think I could do the roommate thing anymore.
ErinEngle: I have only lived on my own like 8 months and I am spoiled by it!
onetz53: if I move out this summer it'd be with 2 people I believe
ErinEngle: That would be fun!
onetz53: yeah, and it'd be in California, where I've never been before, so it could be something really great in my life right now
ErinEngle: That's be awesome!
ErinEngle: That's a big move too!
ErinEngle: Do you know them from college?
onetz53: I only know one of the guys...met him at a conference last year
onetz53: really good guy, we stay in touch
onetz53: the other guy is his friend
ErinEngle: That be pretty awesome!
ErinEngle: Where at in Cali?
onetz53: he goes to Biola University
onetz53: I think it's outside LA
ErinEngle: Neat!
ErinEngle: I've never heard of it!
ErinEngle: You know I got online rigth at 7...and you and me have been the only 2 one...
ErinEngle: on not one
onetz53: haha I know!
onetz53: this must be Stay Off The Computer Night and we missed the bulletin or something
ErinEngle: It must be!
ErinEngle: Or some aweseome tv show is on that we don't watch...
onetz53: yeah, seriously
onetz53: I talked to Erik for a little bit earlier
onetz53: he's pretty cool
onetz53: he's probably the jokester of the group I'd say
ErinEngle: Haha!
ErinEngle: He messages me and told me to watch South Park with him
ErinEngle: But I was on the phone
ErinEngle: and by the time I replied back he was away
onetz53: haha
ErinEngle: I was hoping he would come back online...
onetz53: he told me he had a sex test to study for
onetz53: haha
ErinEngle: sex test?!?!
ErinEngle: I'm very curious about that!
onetz53: human psychology of sex or something like that
ErinEngle: ook!
ErinEngle: That makes sense...
ErinEngle: I was thinking sex edu
ErinEngle: Haha I'm such a dumbass!
ErinEngle: I text message myself stuff all the time so I don't forget it.
ErinEngle: I set my phone down and it goes off and I get all excited!
ErinEngle: forgetting that I just sent myself a message...
onetz53:
ErinEngle: I do that all the time
onetz53: sometimes I'll wake up before my alarm goes off and then when it does I think it's someone calling or texting
ErinEngle: haha...
ErinEngle: I never wake up before my alarms.
ErinEngle: I don't wake up half of the time with my 3 alarms...
ErinEngle: Tuesday I woke up at 8:45...
ErinEngle: One alarm had been going off since 6:45, another 7:15, and another 7:45.
ErinEngle: I sleep through them all.
onetz53: haha yeah I've used 2 and 3 alarms in the past
ErinEngle: I have too! One does nothing for me!
