Ms. Quartermaine

Bumpety-Bump OT: 2400 milligrams of Ibuprofen in the last 18 hours is too much. It's prescribed, but it's making me sick, and it's not even helping. Gah. Soap Opera Digest is reporting that Tony Geary will not be offscreen until late June. This contradicts what Soaps In Depth said, so I guess we'll see...Or you all will see, since I won't be here. Waaaaaaaaah. LUKE AND TRACY CLIP COLLECTION. SaveFile is supposed to last forever. I've been uploading clips for someone at LuNacy: A Luke and Tracy Fan Forum. She tried getting an account here, but she's having validation problems. I suggested Gmail since that worked for TracyLuv, so we'll see if she shows up. Catherine, if you're out there lurking, HI!!!! Can Tracy be on today? PLEASE?!?! Alan's got to show up this week still, and I don't want to wait until Friday...or even Thursday. I want Tracy!TV and I want it now. And OT again, but ugh...I have to go buy sandals and possibly exchange some luggage my dad bought for me. He got me this bright purple suitcase. BRIGHT PUPRLE! It's so I know it's mine. Gah. I hate shopping.

Deb, I really enjoyed that story. Made me smile. Got a kick out of the last line. I immediately thought Lainey was going to mention the line in her comments at LJ...and she did!!! ILTQ, I'll look into it tomorrow. I was messing around in PhotoShop tonight ('cause I was finishing up Lady A's TrAsh banner), but after I did that, I made this: Look at all that fur!!! Got any ideas for text? I don't think I'll be using it. Just interested in what you guys think the text should be. I really ought to try and do something different with my banners. I got on this "3 or 4 photos from the same scene and mess with the lighting" kick. Oh well...

MinervaFan, I don't think you've ever mentioned that, LOL. In fact, I remember wondering if you didn't like the banner since you hadn't commented on it ('til now)...Haha. Congrats to your son, hooked. Week of June 4th Spoiler from Got Info: My comments:

So, last week SON said the hearing will be Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday next week, which means this week. Right?!? From recaps, I'm assuming no Tracy today though. She'll be on later this week with Alan/Scotty/Luke though unless scenes were cut.

Will she be on? Will she, will she, will she? I won't have a clue 'til after the show is over. Going out to lunch with the sister AND some friends, so thank goodness there will be no GH talk. Thanks for Monday's clips, nex. In the event that she's on today, do you want me to edit? Because I can. "Whinest Kid?" Haha. Those award things are nice, hooked. Let us know what he brings home. I got one in 6th grade for "Most courteous." LOL.

hooked, the story about your 6 year old's tantrum with the food/pantry is too cute. I hope everything's good now. Lady A, glad you liked it. If you want, I can add text (of your choice) to it, and you can put it in your signature. But if not, that's okay too. Lainey, thanks for mentioning the back rub. Meant to mention that before, but I didn't. And maybe the anniversary will be mentioned tomorrow? You know how the birthday was a few days off...Maybe this will be too? http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

Really quick before I eat...hooked, it did not suck at all. And I love that you write so fast. It means we don't have to wait as long to read the goodness. I hope I didn't offend you with the comments. I really am in no position to criticize since I haven't posted fic in ages. But seriously...It wasn't bad at all. Just a little rushed at the end.

Does anyone else just love Tracy's hair as much as I do? I'm going to have to post in that thread and express my ahem...displeasure with the current style. I suspect hooked will back me up? Watched Tracy's 3 (wish there were more) scenes today... Comment #1: Comment #2: Comment #3: Comment #4: Comment #5: hooked, maybe I'll catch you tonight? I liked the story, BTW. I do think you had Tracy catch on REALLY quickly though, dare I say almost too quickly? Don't take it the wrong way. Tracy and Luke attempting to babysit Jake was hilarious, and I loved that you got Alan involved. But as you pointed out the ending sort of seemed disjointed from the rest. But anyway, it was still much fun. I'd paid for something like that to air on the show.

Wow. This day has sucked so much already, and it's not even lunch time. :( I might need cheering up in the breakroom tonight if people are around... So, on a TQ related front, I do have good news. Per SoapQueen, Tracy is mentioned in the breakdowns. Today is the day that she is A possible spoiler. We so called it if it's true... Poster #1: Poster #2: hooked, thanks for the heads up about the clips, and hmmm, interesting comments about what Luke has done to Tracy. I don't think Scotty knows that, but could he call Tracy to the stand? Tracy wouldn't lie under oath, I don't think, but she'd have to be very careful about what she says and how she says it. Kind of OT, but I was YouTube a bit yesterday. For those of us who are huge Quartermaine fans, there's some fun scenes with the Q's at Ned and Alexis's wedding rehearsal dinner. I totally didn't know this but I sort of "copied" Guza or whoever when I had Tracy and Ned steal orange juice from the kitchen in Oh, Baby, so Cook wouldn't serve them dinner. In the clip, AJ tried stealing a snack, so Cook refused the family dinner. I bet you all know what they ended up with...PIZZA! (and it wasn't even Thanksgiving) LOL. Good stuff with the Dorman trial too, when Ned has to confess he had an affair with Monica. And watching the guests on Ned and Lois's boat (the night before their wedding) using buckets to get the water out so the boat wouldn't sink was quite amusing. *off to continue with my sucky day* I'm waiting on a phone call, which will determine if the suckiness level will increase or not... :( EDIT: So...Got the phone call. I won't be able to do recaps for GH, 'cause I'm going to be back at the endodontist for ANOTHER tooth. Seriously. WTF. RANT AHEAD: I went to the dentist for a CLEANING this morning. But nooooo...It's never that simple. First, they had to drill that one tooth, pick the cotton out, drill some more, and put a wad of cotton in my mouth. Then, they had to stick metal or something in my tooth, replace the temporary filling with a silver one, and shave the tooth so it's even. Because clearly that wasn't enough, he wants me to go the endodontist because there's a chance I'll need another root canal. WTF. What is the point of going to the dentist every 6 months and brushing twice a day and rinsing with anticavity fluoride stuff if it's NOT GOING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!! BTW, never got the cleaning done. Have to go back Friday. Someone give me good news, 'cause all the teeth issues added onto the fact that I'm leaving the country in 10 days and will be away from everything that is normal for 2 months is really, really scaring me and making me sad.

LOL at the modified post, pinkpopsicle. knh, woot, woot! Glad things are working out! hooked, sounds like you've been busy! Hope you're enjoying yourself today with your friend. Also, I'm not nex, but I have clips. nex, I thought you could use a break. CLICK HERE FOR SENDSPACE LINK CLICK HERE FOR MEGAUPLOAD LINK Clips from Shazzer. Edited by me. If you haven't yet, it's not too late to post in this thread.

Will catch up later... But first, it's a SPOILERIFIC post! From Got Info for the Week of the 21st: Earlier, an anonymous scoopster said: The 2 could be related, right? This anonymous person also said this: which has been confirmed. So...Assuming that this poster is accurate, this spumor is true too: Make sense? (Bascially, if he/she got 2 spoilers right, there's a good chance all of the spoilers he/she spilled are also right). Finally, should another anonymous scoopster be believed, this is what's happening in the near future...

But, but, but she wasn't dancing on the table. That was another clip. Heh. And she wasn't dancing on it. Just standing on top of it. knh, I hate that all that crap is happening to you. Schools can take a long time to get things right, but waiting a year and having the problem still not be solved is just ridiculous. I hope it all works out in the end. Also, HAPPY 2ND WEDDING ANNIVERSARY LUKE AND TRACY! Go post in my thread. Shall we re-live that very special morning? Ahh...Good times. Good times. BTW, there's also a Tracy and Coleman Thread, where someone asked for the backstory. I'm afraid the backstory turned into a back "novel." EDIT: Um, yeah, so ABC.com is doing drugs. I don't know when, exactly, but they updated their character pages and there's a section that lists the good things the characters did and the bad. Tell me how THIS is bad: Persuaded Georgie Jones to break up with Dillon in exchange for Tracy disabling Dillon from getting involved in dangerous mob activity. I mean, Tracy getting Dillon out of working for the mob is a good thing, right? What about this: Went as far as faking her own death and framing Luke Spencer for murder to avoid granting him a divorce. Okay. So faking her death wasn't the best thing and yeah, I understand it being placed in that column, but how come Luke doesn't get "blamed" for pretending he wanted her dead? That's what I want to know!!! I mean, ABC.com even blamed Dillon, but not Luke?!? Oh, and it was totally not so she could avoid a divorce. I don't think. She was teaching them a lesson. And I won't even get started on ABC.com and them saying that Tracy SUED Lulu for custody of her unborn baby. Riiiiiiight. Hey, interns!!!! Get your facts straight. What do I expect though? ABC.com also says that Laura Spencer is Bobbie's grandmother. Am I overreacting? I don't think so. This is ABC. They own GH. It shouldn't be too difficult to figure things out...

pinkpopsicle, it wasn't an online thing, but thanks for your input. It was a sister thing. I've talked to her more recently than in the last couple months combined, and she finds great fun in dissing what I like about GH. "Jane Elliot's acting distracts the scene, blah, blah, blah. She always does this and that, this and that, blah, blah, blah. SO. IRRITATING. I end up fast-forwarding her, blah, blah, blah." Yes, we all have different opinions, but it's like she deliberately goes out of her way to piss me off. It's stupid, and I shouldn't let it get to me, but I do. hooked, you are going to LOVE those clips. LOVE them!!! Just so much fun. Oh. My. Gosh. So much fun. Lady Ashton, squee! More clips! Really, really enjoyed the Tracy/Ned bit on the roof, and I got a kick out of Larry and the telescope. And Drunk!TrAsh...I will have to squee again! I caught those scenes the first time on an edit tape. FLOVED them. Seems as Jane Elliot does drunk a lot more subtle now, and I like that too, but Energetic!Wild!IWannaDance!Drunk!Tracy is very amusing to me as well. And gosh, I am in love with all that hair.

Everyone has their own opinions. I don't have to agree. You're being stupid. Breathe. I can breathe. Breathe. Still being stupid. I don't have to agree. Everyone has their own opinions. Wow. I might be just as nuts as our girl. http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012 Please? If people are around...

If you haven't yet, you MUST download all of Lady Ashton's clips. You have to. GO DOWNLOAD THEM!!! Lady Ashton, I need to do something for you. Fanfiction. Or a video. I'm not sure yet. But...OH. MY. GOD. Those clips are just amazing! I wish I got to see Tracy during that time period (err, I guess I sort of am seeing her from that time period now). Anyway, she's so fun. She's so happy. Okay, happy's not the right word 'cause of the conditions she's living in, LOL; um, but she is still peppy. And ohh, she had oomphy hair. LOL. I won't start. She and Larry just sparkle!!!! Forget the LuNacy. Bring on the TrAsh. Because I have a million more things to post about the clips, I'm going to leave spoiler space for those who haven't watched them... _ _ _ _ _ _ The Ashtons' first morning together under one roof (in a really long time) Why did Monica force them out in the first place? Some comments: I had to laugh when Tracy said sharing the room with Larry was the reason they got divorced. "Instant coffee?" LOL. Loved Tracy screaming, "SPIT IT OUT!" And them having to wash their own dishes. No more maid service. "Instant coffee? That disgusting peanut butter and jelly stuff? What is that?!? I didn't even know that was in the kitchen!" Jane Elliot and Hugo Napier crack me up. Tracy wants to leave real bad, and so does Larry What did Tracy call Larry in the beginning? "Stop whining at me you worthless _______?" "Oh, Tracy. I always clean up after myself." "You ALWAYS leave hair in the sink." Aww, they sound like they're married. Oh, my FAVORITE part: Tracy imitating Larry's his accent: "No, I had to order one myself." Seriously. Best. Fake. Accent. Ever. I rewound Windows Media Player like 7 times already for that. And her facial expression and the semi-hair flip was priceless! Loved it!!! Lady Ashton, ILoveTracyQ once mentioned Tracy coming out of the bathroom, toothbrush in her mouth, and claiming a trunk or something as her own. You've shared so much goodness with us, and I hate to sound greedy, but if you remember/have that scene, could you upload it one day? Tracy does a bit of "redecorating" and alliances are made and broken Aww, Larry is too funny: As if the living situation wasn't bad enough, now you're making me do manual labor? I could never, ever imagine Tracy trying to move furniture. Ever. She looked like she was gonna get herself killed. Ned is too cute, with the whole closet space thing. Larry orders Ned what to do. Ned: Make me. Ha! And Tracy takes Ned side. Adorable. And hehe...Tracy's boundaries. FLOVED her freaking out on them and standing on the coffee table. And then Larry pulling the rug that Tracy was standing on, and Tracy, with coffee table in hand, falling backwards on the couch...Heh. They were such a wonderful, little family. Larry makes lunch on a budget Aww, he made her lunch. Again, loved JE's facial expression and her delivery of the lines. "It's brown." "It's not brown. It's beige." "It's brown and its oily. What have you done, Ashton?" Loved the burnt toast. Ha. "It's hard as a rock." Loved her trying to remember the expression: "What is that expression? Together, we stand? Apart, we...Apart..." "Something like that." "You know what I'm talking about." Him joking about being entertainment at the same time she's going on in the background about uniting the family seemed so husband-wife like (I know they weren't married anymore), but just that she was going on and on, and he was too, but about something completely different. Then, of course, Tracy, "Oh, Ashton, shut up." Hey, Lady Ashton, do you have the family meeting that Tracy was calling Jennings about? Ooh, I'm being greedy again. Tracy and Larry bicker about wine before the Valentine's Day party and Ned learns the ELQ Tracy is in trouble "Sip, Ashton. Sip. We don't want to get sloshed before the party." Heh. Loved them bickering. And uh oh...Big troule on the ship front. This is the same night that she and Larry get drunk, isn't it? And start dancing? Or rather, Tracy starts dancing, and then Larry joins. Then, she passes out. EDITED to fix things. If anyone's in the BR later, post a link. I should be around...

Um, show of hands. How many of you wanted me to be on YouTube? I just got a nice little letter in my inbox stating that the Universal Music Publishing Group has claimed that my use of "Nothing Compares To You" is infringing, and that access to the video has been disabled. First, this song puts my computer on life support (I originally downloaded it from a bad, bad site). My computer, thankfully, survives, but ends up with amnesia (you know, it really did lose all of its memory...It lost EVERYTHING that it didn't come with, and all files that had been saved ). And second, this song tries to get into trouble with copyright laws. Oy. Lainey, I know you liked the song (even suggested it, heh), but I don't think a LuNacy video to it was meant to be to shared with the world. Maybe we'll get an anniversary mention next week? The birthday mention came late, so maybe this one will too? And for the record, I didn't hate Tracy's outfit (the white, green flowy thing; see Handcuff Freezer Fun and Lulu's Surprise Party). I just hate that she wears it like normal, everday clothes. Beautiful gown, really. But wear it to bed, please. EDIT: Deb, I'm here briefly if you're still around: http://pub13.bravenet.com/chat/show.php/1049349012

TracyLuv, you are not worthy of my email. Kidding. You know I love you. *hugs* MinervaFan, the Jerry question was the main one, but after refreshing, you could see the GH Luke/Laura/Tracy one. It was off to the left, and it switched between AMC, OLTL, and GH. But never mind. The direct link is a lot less confusing. Thanks TracyLuv! SPOILERISH (re: today's show) _ _ _ _ _ *smiles evilly* Guess who else showed up at Casa Q today? JAX!!! Man, I was so happy. Jane, Tony, Nancy, Ingo all in one scene. I wish Jax had more interaction with the rest of them though. He sort of showed up, "Sorry to interrupt, but this is important." He and Alexis decided to go outside on the patio after Luke was all, "You two kids go play. The three (him, Tracy, and Alan) of us will be fine." Jax: "Three?" Then, Jax/Alexis did their thing, Luke/Tracy did theirs, and Alexis walked back in just in time to see Tracy going ballistic on Alan. So, I rewound and was able to watch the first scene. Luke was right. Alan did strike a nerve. Ouch. Tracy's right too. It's nothing she doesn't know already. (I'm trying not to spoil that much). Jane Elliot kicked off kind of butt with those couple of lines. Poor Tracy is afraid. Then, Luke had to be an ass about it the next scene and was like, "What happened? You used to be fun." Anyone else find it ironic, or I don't know, hypocritical, that Tracy is trying to get Luke to put down the booze? Um, hello, Tracy? Look in the mirror. And while you're looking, take a good look at your wardrobe and realize that it sucks. Also, fix your hair. Thanks. And finally...as a wrap up...5 Tracy scenes! Minimal towards the end, especially the very end since she had one line while Alexis did most of the talking. But still...I'm not about to complain, much. 3 days of Tracy this week. Not bad, my friends, not bad at all.

Thanks for the link, nex. Thanks for the update, MagicHappens. I'm pissed. I'm pissed at the evil, little sister. EVIL!!!!!! She's part of that evil group of fans that Frons adores. Gah. ILoveTracyQ, you've got email, BTW. (I needed to vent about the sister). hookedongh, you have email too. EDIT: SHE IS ON!!!! I missed most of the first scene, but I caught the second one. My first thoughts: GET. OUT. OF. THE. PAJAMAS. Also, WHERE. DID. THE. OOMPH. GO? So, far, Alan/Tracy/Luke and Alan/Tracy/Luke/Alexis. Tracy is just begging for someone to lock her in Shady Brook. Seriously. She admitted to Alexis that Alan was haunting her. Alexis is all, "Let's do Luke a favor, and not mention this is court, okay?"

And with Dillon too!!! Right, right, right?!? Ditto. Thanks for the screencaps pinkpopsicle. Glad you're doing better.

Double post... Per SID, Luke is off the canvas beginning the week of June 11th. It also says that My comments: *waves to kenna* We miss ya!!!

So, Luke is on tomorrow with Alexis. Think TRACY will be too? I hope! I hope! I hope! hooked, I got more drugs!!! LOL. So pain shouldn't be an issue. I hope not. nex, yes, yes, yes...Work on your vid!!! Please? And they FORGOT about you?

*steps in* Since when did dental visits become 5 hour extravaganzas? It shouldn't be too difficult to not chew on one side of the mouth for the next 2 and half months, should it? Can't get the cap for the tooth yet, and will have to wait 'til after Mexico. Oh, question. Is the fact that I've had 8 X-rays in the last 2 or so months going to mess me up, like all that radiation and stuff? Ah, never mind...My problems do not compare to what some people are going through. hooked, I've said this before, so I apologize if it gets repetitive, but I'm sorry about your friend. I know I don't "know know" you, but she's really lucky that she has you. ILoveTracyQ, you greedy video wanting person. Kidding. It'd be too hard to capture all of Dillon's relationships. I just have Tracy/Dillon clips (wish I had ALL of them, but I don't), and I've already made a a video for them (For Good), and I've made the Tracy/Ned/Dillon one to I Am Your Child. And ooh...Waiting Room. Yeah, I should finish that before Mexico, huh? It's a lot less crazy than Oh, Baby, so it should be doable. Welcome back Regency! Is the end of the school year treating you well? MinervaFan, thanks for the entire article. Scott seems really cool, And to all those I didn't thank for the video feedback, thank you!!! I was a bit obsessed with that video yesterday. Kept watching it over and over and over. I really love the song. Make sure you also thank hooked 'cause she suggested the song. Oh, and should Karen of WUBS be believed, *steps out*

Will catch up later, but it's official according to SID: Also, EDIT: ILoveTracyQ beat me to it. One more thing before I go. I read some wild speculation at SoapZone and will bring it here:

angel, hope you start feeling better soon. knh, glad you are feeling better. CLICK HERE FOR CLASSIC GH. At 1:30, there's a scene of TQ that hasn't been posted yet. And I'm not even going to wonder what is going on with the hair and the feather? Was that a feather? There is some of the heart attack scene too (with Tracy/Edward), but we've seen that before. Monica/Alan are featured throughout as well as other characters from the late 70s, early 80s. LUNACY VIDEO ~Special thanks to hooked for the song suggestion~ MegaUpload Link SendSpace Link Soap Opera Weekly, which was probably edited and sent into publication forever ago, also spoils that next week. Guess we'll see... OT: knh, I watched American Idol too. I had no idea who Melinda was 'til tonight (I haven't been following this season), but from what I saw, I didn't think she'd be the one to go. AI sort of lost all credibility to me when Ruben won over Clay. And I won't even get started on Fantasia and her shrieking (JMO). But Melinda seemed to be really, really good. What year was Jennifer Hudson in it? I liked her too.
