Aurora grabs the lead!

Chris exits. Catherine survives at least another week. Aurora moves into first place.

Aurora 11
Luke 12
Laura 12
Tom 16
Cassie 16
Caleb 18

Alas, A aura's position is not as strong as L aura's position. L aura is guaranteed at least a tie, which would throw the outcome into the labyrinthian tie-breaker system. Should Elliott go home next week, and Taylor wins, it's a three-way tie between L aura, A aura, and Luke. If Elliott goes home next week and Catherine wins, it's a two-way tie between the two auras. Mom, Caleb and I are out of it, and stand to be the biggest losers.

Chris was shocked. Nice guy. He'll have an interesting career.

Aurora also moved up to 290th position on the Jersey Performance Index list. What a cow!

WOW how quickly the odds change. There are 6 possible ways this thing can end now. If Taylor goes 3rd, no matter whether Katherine or Elliott wins, Laura wins. If Katherine goes 3rd, no matter whether Taylor or Elliott wins, Laura wins. But if Elliott goes 3rd, Laura has no chance of winning and it comes down to me and Aurora. After Elliott, if Katherine wins Aurora wins it in a 2 way tie with Laura, and if Taylor wins then I win it in a 3 way tie with both of the Auras. Overall that means Laura has a 4/6 chance, I have a 1/6 chance, and Aurora has a 1/6 chance. It's a good thing for me and Aurora that Elliott sang so incredibly well last night, and that Chris didn't really do much. Katherine did well and it was just enough I suppose.

I'm so awesome. Want to know what is NOT AWESOME? My car is gone. FOREVER. It needed a new transmission which is 2,000 dollars and my car was only 1,500 so they decided it's not worth it. Soooo, it turns out my grampa swan has a bunch of savings bonds for me for a little over two THOU and we're going to look at a new car for me. any suggestions? be as specific as possible because i know little about cars.

What, you never heard the tale of the ugly duckling?

Aurora, what's wrong with the tranny? $2000? They can be rebuilt for less than that. A used one can be had for way less than that. Another $2000 car can be just another can of worms. Get a boyfriend to drive you everywhere. Does your tranny have fluid in it? is the filter clean?

Go see the Subaru guy in Brookfield and tell him you want a cheap car.
