You are mean.

Besides, I only worry when you don't post for 3 hours past the time you normally would post, not just
for three hours. Get it straight, would you please????

Just make sure you keep track of the ballgame tonight in case it goes into extra innings..... wouldn't want you to think I ran the LBN off the bridge or something on the way back....

Well, now that I know you're going to the ballgame. You didn't send me your itinerary this week yet!

Kiki, if the Cardinals are playing at home on a Wednesday, I am there. I thought you knew that by now.....

Really, I didn't know that. I will remember that now. I will be busy packing for the beach. Today is hair and
nails. The important stuff you know.

Think of me and my inability to take vacation time while you're there... :(

I hope you have a great time! How is the weather supposed to be? Ours is not going to be great this weekend, which is okay with me since I have a lot to do around the house and I want to get back into the gym routine.

Typical Florida weather - high in 90's lows in 70's - no more than 20% chance of rain. Wish you were here -
I have a feeling I'm gonna be doing the babysitting at night while the other "grown ups" go out for a nice

Got me an idea of what to do for a video. Gotta figure out the wording, make sure it's under two minutes (shouldn't be a problem), and get a good quality video camera and some editing software. Should be memorable, informative for them on the "compelling reason" aspect, exemplifies my personality (one bizarre quality in it, anyway), and will make them laugh or at least chuckle.

Still need to work on my in-person audition questionnaire. Barely a week away now. I guess you know what I'll be doing over the long weekend, besides playing with the dog.
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

For editing - you might have Windows Movie Maker on your computer...I love that. I'm no expert, by any means, so I am sure there is better out there. But I found it very easy to use. The Millionaire peeps asked us to make a short video of our viewing party in exchange for sending us lots of promotional goodies, and that's what we used to edit it and set it to music and all that jazz.

Does anyone know how long it will take to find out if they liked the video or not? After you send it in, do you think they'll let you know soon or will they only contact you if they choose you to take the test? Just wondering, so I can send the video in and then if they don't like me, try the phone game. Though I guess I can try the phone game either way.

Well I just noticed on the rules page:

Only those persons advancing to the online test will receive email notification

I just wonder should those of us submitting, assume after a few days we haven't been selected, if we don't hear, or do you think they wont let anyone know until after the cutoff of 3AM on the 16th.

I suspect a mass e-mailing will go out on the evening of the 16th.
