Ms. Quartermaine

Are you trying to scare me out of the profession before I even officially start? About the shoe shopping...I have to wait until later. I have no car. My parents are working (though I think my Dad just got home - WTH? I want a job where I can leave the office by noon and get home within an hour), and my sister has the "kid car" with her at school. On the bright side, I have gotten RL things done today: Called the university with regards to graduation, called the high school to confirm observing tomorrow, updated my student teaching resume just in case... Oh, and I will have a car eventually. My dad is selling my Mom's to me (she's getting a new one, or maybe he's going to give her his and take the new one for himself). Anyway, he insists it's at a discounted price, and I'm sure it is, but oh, I'm still going to be sooo poor. And just so this post isn't completely off topic, I hope Tracy's on today too, KyE! EDIT: Just noticed that I finished my last post at 11:11, and this one was finished at 1:11. Exactly 2 hours later. Pretty coooool. LOL.

Thanks to everyone for the banner/avatar feedback! I didn't want to change mine so soon again, but I couldn't resist Rainbow!LuNacy. The hair during the Paul era isn't unpopular to me. LOOK at all that oomph! And Lady A, I've been meaning to tell you that I also love your new avatar. Lainey, good luck with work. TracyLuv, glad you had a good time at the party! Sounds like it was fun. remos, hope you're getting back into the homeschooling routine easily. MinervaFan, glad you had a great weekend. hooked, how's the weather, today? I think you said yesterday you had the first sunny day in awhile. It is STILL raining here. I don't think I've seen sun since Thursday. Oy. Birthday list has been updated to include JE's, Tracy's, and Lady A's. I stuck to April 6th for Tracy's birthday. About HellaGood...There were A LOT of new posters that registered very recently, and they weren't all Tracy fans either. I can see why the game was closed.

We were discussing birthdays in the breakroom, and I decided to do this: ~Jane Elliot/Tracy Quartermaine and Fan Birthday List~ January 17: Jane Elliot January 23: angel February 18: KyE March 5: 4XCrazy (hasn't been around in a long time) March 15: Lady Ashton April ?: BSG April 6: Tracy Quartermaine April 8: smirks (hasn't been around in a long time) April 12: MagicHappens (hasn't been around recently) June 4: MinervaFan June 11: ILoveTracyQ (hasn't been around recently) June 19: kenna (hasn't been around in a long time) June 23: amello (hasn't been around in a long time) July ?: Lainey July 4: remos July 26: pinkpopsicle (hasn't been around recently) August 2: hooked August 7: nex August 26: tracyluver (hasn't been around this summer) September 7: Colette October 3: TracyLuv November 2: RedHot (from We All Need LuNacy) November 11: knh November 15: Regency (hasn't been around recently) December 3: Ms. Q December 7: Keith How did I do? I have no birthdays for coolkid, inyron, or Truke, so feel free to come in and tell us. And I just have what I believe to be the months for Lainey and BSG. I hope I didn't leave someone out on accident. BTW, there are way too many of us who haven't been around. We miss ya! I hope everything is all right on the real life front. EDIT: Jane's, Tracy's, Lady A's, and Colette's birthdays have been added.

Better? Or should I forget it and just use one still shot?

Just testing out the new avatar and banner. At first I was wondering about loss of quality on the avatar, and now, I'm wondering if it's too flashy?

Breakroom? 9:26 central. http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012 You guys, hooked and I came up with the AWESOME fic idea in the breakroom today. I can't write it (too occupied with Oh, Baby), but if we're lucky, hooked is going to give it a try. I wish it could happen on the show. The idea is so fun!

MinervaFan, lovely story. It was so sweet. I really enjoyed it. Thanks for the downloadable link! hooked, I heard on the radio yesterday that apple juice helps headaches. You should try that, and let me know if it works. Oh, I also learned that we have a better chance of becoming president than having identical quintuplets...or maybe it was quadruplets...I don't know. I was too "focused" on cleaning my room. LOL. Speaking of, today, in cleaning my closet, I found a lot of things...Some GH/TQ stuff, like a sheet a paper that listed the amount of episodes she was in during 2005, organized by month. I didn't do this for 2006, BTW, and don't plan on doing it for 2007, so perhaps I'm not as obsessed as I used to be. Which is sad, because I'm still VERY obsessed. In any case, here's the breakdown, if anyone is interested: January: 2 February: 4 March: 4 April: 5 May: 13 June: 11 July: 8 August: 1 September: 0 October: 8 November: 11 December: 11 Some facts that I wrote on this sheet, LOL: She appeared in 78 out of 256 episodes total, which was apparently 41 episodes less than 2004. The only contract cast members that appeared less than her were AL/Brook Lynn with 72 , IS/Diego with 70, and JZ/Bobbie with 47. TB/Carly was on from Jan. through mid-April and appeared in 58; note that JE appeared in roughly 12 episodes in this time period. MM/Jesse was on from May through December (4 months LESS than JE) and appeared in 78, the same amount of episodes as her. KS/Maxie was on from May through December (4 months LESS than JE) and appeared in 80, 2 episodes more than her. I'm assuming JE/Tracy's counts for this year are better. I mean, they have to be, right? LOL.

^^^ Thanks. Glad you enjoyed it. I realized that I actually had more outfits in that video than in the bad wardrobe one. How did that happen with me? Before I sign off for the night, I have a question: Anyone have that media net photo of LuNacy at the Liz/Lucky wedding when they were standing against the wall/door with the "I'd rather be anywhere but here" look on their faces?

Thanks for the explanation, remos. I was just wondering what else you thought was going on, but I guess "spidey senses" means you can't figure it out. And from what I've read, there are no mentions of TQ for next week. Maybe GH will surprise us? Colette, MinervaFan actually created that video. It's a fun video, isn't it? Anyone have a downloadable version of it? It's one of them that I never got "replaced" when my computer crashed in the fall. Good Wardrobe Video (revised): http://www.sendspace.com/file/a1qiok In case it was skipped over, there's a little blooper in this clip that I put together: http://www.sendspace.com/file/56cy0f (I had a little fun at the end, LOL). I'll be around this weekend, but hope everyone has a great one!

I'm here. Just limiting myself. I spent over 3 hours in my bedroom today, cleaning and rearranging it. 'Course I kind of got side-tracked by all the old things I found. Oh, and I never realized how big my room actually was! LOL. Oh, I don't like this. They're going completely quiet, so when she does return, it's gonna be SURPRISE! About the Emmy win; he won his award for his work during Lucky's coma; at that point, JE wasn't part of his SL, so that's what I eventually chalked it up to (after venting my frustration, LOL). Care to elaborate on the "spidey senses?" I'm a little confused. Someone linked my "She's a Lady" video on SoapDish. Thought that was cool. HellaGood is funny; there are like 8 posters who joined either today/yesterday and are all supporting Sam. Strange how that works. Oh well. BTW, I emailed ILoveTracyQ the other day. She sends hugs, and she misses us all.

WELCOME BACK HOOKED! HI TRACYLUV! Gah. I need to give up the online world for the night, and well, probably wouldn't be a bad idea to give it up for the next couple days as well. I mean, I went out yesterday afternoon; caught up with people I hadn't seen since high school. Was much fun. And there was no computer anywhere in site. Anyway, before taking a mini-break (which translates to "Ms. Q will be on tomorrow, but not for 16 hours straight"), I have a question for Lainey who seems to have some kind of experience with regards to what I'm going to ask. So, without further adieu, Lainey or anyone else who wants to answer... What's your take on Tony Geary not mentioning Jane Elliot or Tracy in ANY interview since October/November? Yes, I realize he hasn't been asked, but TG knows how to handle the media; if he can mention a Laura/Scotty/Luke triangle, why can't he mention Tracy and make it a quad? And why when asked about Genie, it is not the usual "would love it, but it's between her and ABC" but rather "Would love it. Luke gets to be real when she's around. It's way past time for her to return..." (taking quotes from the thread linked below) Yes, I've been hanging out at SOC (BSG, gottahavelusty dissected our posts, LOL). Lainey, MinervaFan, nex, etc: Here is the link: http://boards.soapcentral.com/showthread.p...9119&page=5 BTW, you all got emails on the HG front.

Tracy's up to 214 at HG. Good Wardrobe video is gonna be delayed. There's been some new GOOD outfits I thought of and can add: The one when she had on when she went to Shady Brook and that light green jacket she wore for ShadyBrook!Caper Episode 1. Colette, wonderful news about your grandfather. Breakroom, briefly? http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

Ooh! I remembered another one. The white blouse she wore for Nik/Em's engagement party. Lady A, yay! You voted! Go Team!Tracy! remos, yep, I love that outfit. I labeled it like this: Her recent classy pink blouse, with the dressy, black skirt. Sorry to overwhelm you. About ELQ...But from what I understand, Helena held Emily at gun point at GH in Luke's hospital room. She wanted her 15 million dollars. Tracy, immediately, began to write her a check, but Helena was being difficult and wanted cash. Tracy couldn't give her cash for another 48 hours, so Helena whisked Emily away. Worried about Emily, Skye went to Lorenzo Alcazar, who had the cash on end to rescue her. Afterwards, he purchased some interest in ELQ and wanted something in return for giving up the 15 million...The CEO position. The following month, Luke and Tracy made their "3 month deal." Luke acts as a husband for 3 months, helps Tracy solidify her CEO position, and then, she'd divorce him. Much sooner than 3 months later, there was a board meeting. Tracy, Ned, Justus, Jax, and Alan voted for Tracy. Lorenzo, Michael (Lorenzo's proxy), Monica, Emily (Monica's proxy), and Edward voted for Lorenzo. Skye still needed to vote (Tracy had locked her in a closet, but Luke had released her, so she could). She voted for Lorenzo; LuNacy's deal was off, since Luke didn't help his wife like he was supposed to. Later, Luke convinced Lorenzo to give all his shares of ELQ to Carly in the divorce settlement. I think Luke wanted to get that stock from her and use it to bribe Tracy into a divorce. Tracy found out, but Luke had another plan. And then I got confused, because at some point, Luke and Carly owned the hotel together, and we don't hear about ELQ again 'til the summer. Skye/Edward were discussing how Tracy was CEO and how Edward wanted to get the company away from her. Evidently, she got the position back offscreen, just in time for the condom scandal, so she ended up being blamed for that. I wish I could be of more help.

Hi. My name is Ms. Q, and I have an obsession with Tracy Quartermaine's Wardrobe. I have a good wardrobe video too, remos. Just haven't uploaded it to YouTube, 'cause it wasn't as "fun" as the other one. Will upload it to SendSpace later tonight hopefully, but off the top of my head, I like... The teal blue, satin jacket The dark blue jacket The white/flower print jacket The green business suit (skirt) The hotel fire ensemble Her hostage crisis outfit (even with the fur) The pastel colored business suit (skirt) The burgundy blouse with the black slacks The red jacket (she wore it on the Haunted Star with Luke) The red business outfit that she wore with Skye once upon a time The black business ensemble she wore with Dillon at GH once upon a time Her red pajamas that she wore with Dillon/Georgie The ensemble she wore when discussing her abortion with Lulu The light, blue short jacket The Olive!Tracy business suit (skirt) Her black outfit for Lila's memorial Her white jacket/gray pants in the "Take me, I'm yours" scene Her "Happy 39th Birthday" jacket Her white tailored jacket with the black slacks Her green "Dragon Lady" jacket Her gray business suit which we haven't seen since post-Hotel Fire Her recent classy pink blouse, with the dressy, black skirt Her jacket when Luke said ILY Her red, metrocourt blouse with black skirt... Wow...I'm nuts.

Was putting some clips on SaveFile and came across something. I edited it to make it more fun. CLICK ME. Thanks for your input, remos. Part of me doesn't believe TPTB will end LuNacy just like that, but I didn't want to anger the LnL fans too much, so that's why I posted what I did.

BSG, you have my support at SOC! The page finally loaded, and I put in my 2 cents. Now, friends, if need be, please back me up! SOC scares me sometimes, and I'm not even sure if I made sense. Oh, gosh, I hope I made sense.

^^^ I think SOC is down right now. As requested in the breakroom: Luke/Tracy Clips Note: 12/7 and 12/12/05 scenes have just been added. 2005: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808493069 2006: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808494529 2007: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808494540 Dillon/Tracy Clips Jane/Scott on Family Feud: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808520399 2003/2004: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808518734 2005: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808518738 2006/2007: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808518736 Skye/Tracy Clips 2003-2007: http://www.savefile.com/projects/808518725 Updated "Worst of TQ's Wardrobe" Video (just replaced one clip) MEGAUPLOAD: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YMMKFC7R SENDSPACE: http://www.sendspace.com/file/wux2t2 YOUTUBE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txLCgg84ce0 Sorry that there are so many links! Deb, what time on Sunday morning? And just so you know, brainstorming sounds like school. EDIT: No Tracy. Lulu's not even at Shady Brook anymore. I don't get why they continue all other Lulu scenes, but they couldn't give us a wrap up of yesterday's. I mean, everything ELSE from yesterday was continued, even the stupid 2 month trial which served so purpose since Jason will never be convicted. Anyway, don't mind me. I'm just frustrated...

MinervaFan, you don't have to post the B/W movie clips anymore; nex took care of it at HellaGood. Well, if you do have the first scene (in the Q mansion, before the dream), you can post that when you have a chance. If not, no worries. Thanks for offering. And nex, thanks for posting. BSG, wonderful post at SOC. I am going to just keep my mouth (err, my fingers still, I guess) in regards to that topic. EDIT: Ok, that same person responded. And now, someone needs to help BSG. I would, but we all know what happens when I step foot in a LuNacy vs. LnL thread. nex, MinervaFan, you both know how to make "politically correct" posts. If/when you have a break from work, feel free to lend your support. If anyone is interested, HellaGood also has daily clips up of yesterday. The quality seems bit higher than Something-More, if that matters. Normally, I wouldn't mind, but I prefer the better quality clips for videos. Then again, clips were taken from SoapNet, and their logo on the bottom right of the screen is a bit obnoxious compared to the ABC one. Ahh...Decisions. Decisions. Link is here if you want. Credit Trudy. Speaking of HellaGood, Tracy dropped to 206 this morning; she's at 209 right now. PLEASE LET TRACY BE ON TODAY!

To those lurking. Don't go far. Join me in the breakroom. http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012 TL, I believe you said that the song didn't go well with the moments...That the clips were touching/lean on me scenes while the song was loud and kind of harsh. Those weren't your exact words, but I think that was the gist of it. In any case, thanks for the feedback! And I totally forgot about that scene with Scotty/bed. Tracy was so funny there. LOL. Gosh, I FLOVE her! About that article...It was from July 2005. I don't think TG knew what he was talking about, 'cause no way were LuNacy sleeping together 2 months into marriage. Lainey, I responded to your PM. I am now going to have delete my internet history to rid myself of those non-LuNacy pictures I did not want to see!!!

So...I tried writing some of the "What If?" story from a million LJ challenges ago, but I don't see myself continuing. It was "What if Tracy had married Jax?" and I just can't do it without making Tracy look either desperate or just plain sick...I mean, she blackmailed the man into marriage, as well as the "boardroom and the bedroom." It was obvious that she wanted him to be her partner in every sense. It's just all very icky and in light of the recent Jax/Irina (is that her name?) SL, I just don't want to do write this anymore. And wow...I can't believe I'm being turned off by the Trax. KyE, yeah! You're back! And I agree. I loved the Tracy/Scotty scenes today. I even loved when Scotty called her "Mother Goose." JE/KS are so good together. Speaking of KS...Where has MagicHappens been? Colette, hope everything goes well for your grandfather. Glad to hear the surgery should take care of the problem. nex, glad you liked the vid!

Welcome KyE! I felt like a scene was missing today. We never actually saw Tracy pressure Scott to take a DNA test. It was more like... T: Do you want me to shut up? S: Yes... T: Then, you're going to do something for me. Cut. S: I cannot believe you talked me into this. But yes, as others have mentioned, her hair was absolutely LOVELY! Make-up too. Didn't even mind the recycled jacket. She looked incredible. SoapDish thinks so too: Poster 1: Jane Elliot looks great today, alive and fresher in the face, etc. Poster 2: She looks fabulous! Poster 1 (again): I was thinking she looks like she might have lost more weight, and her face reminds me of that kind of glow, *runner's high* and all that if that makes sense. TracyLuv, a reminder but you've seen the gist of the video. You didn't like it. The last scene with Lulu, Scotty, Tracy, Logan was never properly wrapped up. Since all of Lulu's scenes tend to continue, I'm hoping this means at least a little bit of Tracy tomorrow.

inyron, at the end of July, there were some good Tracy scenes when Alan discovered that he was fading and didn't need to be her conscience for the time being. Tracy was upset to see him go, and Jane Elliot rocked it (more than usual). Of course, weeks later, Alan reappeared, annoying the hell out of Tracy. If you want, Clips are here under 7-24-07. Credit goes to Izzy. MinervaFan, whenever you get a chance will be fine. GQ Daily is now defunct or else I'd get them from there. As for the stories, I was considering following through with the "What If?" one, so we'll see what happens. nex, no worries! I was just kidding around. I'm glad you came in and ended it, 'cause I wouldn't have been able to stop on my own. So, do you all remember that Quartermaine video I made? But I never posted it anywhere but here? I've edited it a bit. Added Brook Lynn and Lila to it. I also added more Emily. Replaced some clips with others. Changed the white flashies to black ones. That kind of thing. If you want to watch it, links are below: MEGAUPLOAD: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=164J7DPZ SENDSPACE: http://www.sendspace.com/file/4ul0mg YOUTUBE: Eventually... Oy. This post, for being rather short, took FOREVER. I was uploading, realized I forgot to credit someone, had to fix that, wanted to reupload, but then got a phone call which lasted 20 or so minutes, etc. Might be going out this afternoon and therefore won't be around to recap...

UGH. My internet is so stupid. I'm not sure how long this most recent connection is going to last, so I should make this fast... inyron! So happy to see you're posting! I haven't seen you around here since...Well, I was in Mexico, and I think I had just gotten out there, so it has been a long time. Glad you enjoyed the video. And if you can, stop in more often. BTW, I see that you posted at HellaGood! If you know of any other Tracy fans, feel free to recruit them. Lainey, I got your PM. I'll look for some pictures, but I'll have to stop when I lose connection again. And I'm betting I will. For whatever reason, I can't get on the network I'm supposed to be on, and I believe I'm picking up the neighbor's signal or something. Will see how long this lasts... MinervaFan, I recently re-watched "When You're Smiling." That might be my 2nd favorite video of yours! (after Nana, which will always hold a special place in my Tracy loving heart). It's just adorable and a lot of fun. And now a question if you don't mind...I saw that you had clips of Dillon's dream (December 2003, black and white) and was wondering if you still had a couple scenes from that episode and could upload. I never downloaded them from GQ Daily and would like to have them. Plus, another person at HellaGood (one who supports Tracy in the Character Game - yay) requested those scenes in the request thread. If you have a chance, would you be able to share them? On a fic related front...Today, without much internet access, I went though a ton of stories I found on the computer...I know I always start stories and never finish, but I just didn't think there that many, especially on this computer (which had its entire hard drive wiped out in October). Anyway, I found the following: Tracy, still stuck in the closet post-LnL's reception, Tracy finding Luke packing his things after Laura went back to her catatonic state, Dillon/Tracy at GH during the hostage crisis, Tracy/Jax at MetroCourt after Luke left again, Ned/Dillon/Tracy post-Lulu's abortion, a mother's day story, Ned/Tracy post-Alan's death, a "What if Tracy married Jax" one...That's 8 unfinished stories/scenes. Some of them only have like 10 lines written total though. And wow...This post ended up being so much bigger than I thought it was going to be. LOL. EDIT: Wow! The post went through. I lost connection after hitting Submit or whatever, but I just got it back, and it's here!!! Want to add this: TracyLuv, about the good hair/bad hair video...I found part of a "bad hair" on saved on my computer. But with the way the music is...It seems I have RUN OUT of bad hair...How does THAT happen?!

Ok, my friends. My internet has had limited or no connection since about 3:00 central, so I've only been able to get on twice this afternoon/evening. The first time, I voted at HellaGood! (Had to do that in case the connection was gone for the rest of the day, LOL). Afterwards, I promptly got disconnected, but all was right with the world since I was done voting. Anyway, this is the second time I've been able to get on. Just saying HELLO! And if you have an SOC account, go to this thread. If I lose connection again, I won't be able to defend myself anymore. BTW, remos, no concrete spoilers on the Shady Brook mess. I wouldn't mind so much if GH was using this to their advantage. Tracy in therapy! It's a goldmine. But no. She's still just about Lulu. GAH. And about TG's vacations...That one year, he left late June, returned in September briefly, and then left again until late October. Then he returned, only to leave AGAIN in late November and return late January. I would assume he's returning early October this year, but who knows with his whacked out schedule? EDIT #1: If you go to SOC, it might be better if those without Tracy and or Quartermaine in their usernames (or avatars, for that matter) post. *waves to nex* Nice post at SOC! Very, very classy. (Not that I expected anything else from you. ) EDIT #2: nex, I typed out another post at SOC and then saw your new one! LOL. You're such a hall monitor. Again, classy post and excellent points too! I wish I could be as "cool" about this as you, but alas...Orlando and I have a "long history" of arguing over this topic. It could be the next Spencer-Cassadine feud! Haha. I'll try and be good now.

LOL! I made up a whole bunch of the hair names just 'cause it was easier than saying "that day during Laura's custody trial, where Tracy's hair was medium length but sadly lacked oomph, etc." Or "that day when Luke and Tracy were in Miami where she kissed him and told him to take a bus, and her hair was kind of short and looked sticky, etc." As far as the "kiss names," there are variations...Some of us use different names. It was much easier to keep track when could count the number of LuNacy kisses on one hand. And wow...Tracy needs to be onscreen like yesterday. Look what our conversations are coming to! Hmm, I think I miss the old set font (which is the one I am using now right? Or am I getting it mixed up with SOC?)
