YESSS ! Last week I stuck my neck in a noose for Aisha and it could have been the end of my game. Both Jackie and Audrey were pushing for her to leave and I had to go against the flow for her. It was a huge risk and for a while there I wondered if I was out of my mind but it just didn't seem fair to keep Ray when he was so inactive and Aisha had not only spoken to me more, but had done the comp by herself. Part of me wondered why Audrey wanted Ray to stay so badly and I was well aware that my decision to support Aisha put a strain on my relationship with Audrey and Jackie. In fact I expected to be targeted because of it this week..but MY GIRL AISHA stayed and WON HOH !!!!!!!!!!! 
Now I have had an easy week. Not only easy but entertaining. I was worried that Jackie and Audrey were too close and even suspected that possibly Jackie was the person that may have told Audrey that Aisha was " pissed " about being nominated ( which is not true ) "Surprised" yes..Anyway these two girls were after Aisha and were a bit put off by me so I am not 100% comfortable with them anymore. I half expected them both to be nominated together since several people told Aisha they were both trying to get Ray to stay, but for some reason Aisha went after Gerry. Jackie feels Audrey threw her under the bus..possibly by telling Aisha that it was Jackie that said Aisha was pissed about being nominated after helping TA win immunity. This may or not be true but it has definitely made Jackie less trustful of Audrey . It is for this reason Aisha has decided to keep Jackie around and not to ask Zach to use the veto to replace anyone with Audrey..which is what I would have done..but oh well.
Other good things about this week;
I finally have had a chance to talk game with a few people other than my first ally Michael.
After seeing that I had answered Zach as majority choice for F2 and since Zach had answered Vanessa..Zach approached me and suggested we make it happen. I really like Zach. As I mentioned earlier he was one of my favorites right from our first chat and since then I can see he is a virtual beast at comps. He is going to be an awesome ally. I feel a bit badly since I already have a deal with Michael and contrary to popular opinion I am not a backstabber..so I don't feel good very good about keeping these deals simultaneously ( old school player ) So I mentioned to Zach that I had to let him know that i was also working with Michael and Zach said.." that's ok so am I " .I bet Michael has a F2 with him too. 
still love him maybe I should have kept my mouth shut but I hate lying to my allies..and make a habit of never lying to my closest allies.
I was a bit shocked to be labelled the backstabber...as I am the player that is usually loyal to a fault....but the people that answered Vanessa are people I almost never talked to..but the one person that really surprised me was johhny..since he actually asked me to work with him. UMM why would anyone ask someone to work with them if they thought they were a backstabber ?
Now it makes me wonder if I can trust him. Honestly it may be nothing but if I were to win HOH I just might use that as a reason to nominate someone. ....I am nominating you because if you really perceive me as a backstabber you cannot trust me and at some point will want me out...
Today I also had a chance to finally talk a bit of game with Adam. I believe he is in a similar position as I am. That we are not really involved in any serious game talk with people yet so we both feel a bit out of the loop. Today I shared the little I know with him and I think it opened the door to the possibility that we may work together.
Sara....as I mentioned week one I loved her that first night but she disappeared and I have really missed her. I hope she comes back because this girl is on the ball and I could use an ally like that.
