I'm back too. The camp this weekend was great - and I stayed warm so bonus points for me. Shiloh returned from his camping having a great time as well. It's nice to get away but nice to return.... especially to a warm home and my beloved 'puter. Wow.... this has got to be the most beautiful picture I have seen. What an amazing smile! Thanks for the big pics, Ms. Q.

Wow... quite a few LuNacy... and she looks fine. So I'm off to winter camp (yeah, me who has a hard time with cold is going winter camping - the things I do for my kids...) Anyway, I'll be home last Sunday evening. Have a great weekend everyone.

This just kills me.... from Daytime Confidential.... FANFIC or SPOILER? Is what’s coming up another re-do of an old storyline? Yesterday I mentioned where they MAY be going with Ethan. Is Ethan’s story going to be similar to when Carly first hit town to mess with her birth mother? There MAY be some twists to that story as Ethan is said to charm and flirt with Tracy but I haven’t seen much on an actual seduction ala Carly and Tony Jones. What’s been out and about on RUMOR Road is that Ethan MAY toy with Lulu’s emotions. We know, we know, incest is not best BUT there MAY be another twist to this story (IF it happens). I mentioned yesterday that these RUMORS say Ethan ASSUMES Luke is his dad. As for today, February 19th... and let me say I'm really glad this Go Red stuff is shortlived. The writers today must have been beside themselves with all the product placement/references - it's enough to make you gag, and much more intense then last year (though not as fun as Luke looking through Tracy's bag) STATS Vets: Edward, Alexis Kisses: n/a Appearance: Other Stories: New Day and everyone seems to be at home/work; Raynor looking for answers; Let the product placement begin - Maxie feeds Spinelli V8 Fusion; Claudia asks Max/Milo to give her any more DVDs with a particular design on them; JoLu try to reconnect; Alexis tells Raynor to back off of Sam and his threats; Maxie/Lulu start to deal with their work disaster; Kate still being a bitch to Olivia; Alexis can't say ILY to Sam, which confuses Sam; Max does the Campbell product promo with Diane; Kate snoops at Sonny's and is caught by Kate; Maxie is set to wear the Crimson dress Line of the Day: actually action of the day - CarJax in the elevator... so cute Sc. 1 - no Tracy Sc. 2 - no Tracy; Edward tries to interrupt CarJax reunion in the MC Lobby and want to talk about General Hospital... they ignore him Sc. 3 - no Tracy; Sc. 4 - no Tracy Sc. 5 - no Tracy; Edward talks to CarJax about rebuilding GH, and wants the money and effort from all those well healed to contribute - but he wants more than just money, he wants people involved who have a vision for GH. Carly says what Edward wants to hear. Sc. 6 - no Tracy; Ed continues that he's going to streamline the bidding process to start the rebuilding immediately. Jax explains to Olivia that Edward is an "instintution" in Port Charles and quite a flirt, and wants Olivia to interfere so CarJax can have time alone. Olivia kisses-up to Edward, who takes all the appreciation Olivia heeps on him, and the two walk off as CarJax go in the opposite direction. Sc. 7 - no Tracy... but worth watching for CarJax alone

Thanks Hooked - Tracy is all over the place LOVE IT!!!!!!!

Spoilers fresh from SD..... GOS, etc... coming in March... Kate is trying to focus on her magazine again but her behavior alarms some people including her cousin who tells someone a fact of Kate's past that she wanted to forget. After Sonny and Claudia consummate their marriage and everything goes right, she gets scared of how good it feels, Claudia steps some bounderies in Sonny's life including his relationships with some people. Everyone at the Quatermaines mansion wonder who Rebecca and Ethan are and if there is a reason they have both entered their lives at the same moment. Lulu hates Ethan and the bond he has with Luke. Maxie and Johnny continue to fight their attraction, Spinelli notices it. Spinelli is offered to work with the FBI permanently. Jason and Sam move forward with their newfound friendship and agree that it feels right. Nikolas and Elizabeth are bothered by Rebecca and Lucky's bond. Rebecca makes it clear that she wants more than a friendship with Lucky, she wants him in bed. The mob goes full circle as Sonny merge his old organization with the Zachara one and becomes the most powerful man around. Ric is interested in getting his old job back but not if Alexis has a say in it. Michael's condition is improving

I don't know about those spoilers hooked. They first ones sound like maybes, but then the last.... Sonny "disapproves", WTF? Sonny has no tolerance for violence against women no matter who does it. Sonny would have a fit that Kate's done that to Claudia and has sunk so low. That makes them all sound funny. Lucky is going to be suspicious, 'cause that's the way he's drawn. Patrick getting unwelcome advice from Tracy? Well she has tried to take his head off already about the biotoxin thing - it could be hospital/medical related but why? He's not in charge anymore. We'll see LB, an insider said some time ago that they were patterning ClauSon on LuNacy - and it's obvious to me too. I'm really enjoying them. Mind you I just like Claudia - she made Nicholas interesting and Ric interesting, now she's making Sonny interesting. And after that Spixie reunion yesterday.... I'm now starting to wonder how much longer baby brother Johnny Z is going to be around, especially if they are going ahead with Luthan.... Still not happy with what they did to Lucky/LuSam

Aww, ignore her.... bitter doesn't begin to cover it. Lets do the LuNacy Conga and really rub it in! I know it's not likely, Ms.Q, but today's conversation just stopped - it didn't end. And as LB has brilliantly delineated they didn't insert this weeks scenes into last week, so there is a chance. TPTB have to get TraLu to a point of wanting to biff men in general before they bring Ethan into their little Spencermaine family. I don't think the bitterness is turned up to it's full volume yet. I really liked today - Tracy has the fight back in her, thank heavens. While she did a great sick person, I don't think I'd want to see her with a protracted illness - we need her being able to withstand just about anything. So, my vino is gone, my eyes are heavy, I'm going to bed. Hooked.... that picture has now words....

Man... that sidelinetwit has got to get a new hobby. We must be really fascinating.... who knew?? I want to see Ethan flirting with Tracy. That will be funny. BTW, whomever is going to do the Best Off TQ 2009 has to include today's TraLu with the bedpan in the bloopers. JE fought to get that one back. TL, if you're still there I'm coming. If not I'll catch you another time. Bets on her goodness tomorrow?

Wow, most of the gang in on now.... cool. The Luke/bail thing was in SID maybe? I know it was mentioned in one of the rags already. As for TraLu.... that conversation just got started. I'm thinking they might finish up with them early tomorrow and then Lulu goes to work. Tracy has been getting real time lately and conversations are continuing. I'm very optimistic about how things are going for air-time for her. Already we are at 8 days for February, with two more next week for sure. That's half the month - not bad, and we may bet more. The way the kiss is worded sounds like it's more than just Lulu. "Lucky Lady"? That's straight out of Luke's lexicon.

Bed pan? That's hilarious. It might have been, Hooked. I walked in part way through scene 3 and it seemed long enough that I didn't think I missed anything, but it could have been the very first part. I'll have to watch Cazi, then await Nex's good copy. So we know spoilers are fun but not necessarily accurate. These are a smattering of those on SD about our couple... Does Luke ever see Tracy until she bails them out? No Tracy bails them out and Ethan starts to flirt with her Thanks--but she doesn't bail luke out right? Or does she eventually? Does Ethan move in with the Qs? she bails Luke out too and yes Ethan move in with the Qs He really knows how to make Tracy feel special Lulu is drawn to Ethan Luke is amused by the connection between Lulu and Ethan Ethan lays one on a unexpected lucky lady (Me: something tells me this is Tracy) Yo Lainey..... Thursday Feb. 19th Diane is annoyed and touched at Max's efforts to reform her eating habits.

Recaps, Wednesday February 18th (I missed first two scenes) STATS Vets: Tracy Kisses: n/a Appearance: hospital gown, healtier Other Stories: Spinelli rescue underway; Scrubs debrief their night; Solivia doesn't know what Kate/Claudia's issue is; Maxie waxes poetic about Spin to obnoxious Winnie; Johnny/Claudia discuss their situation vis a vis Anthony/Sonny; Sonny tells Kate he's staying with Claudia; Nic still obsessing and visits Em's grave; Lucky starts to interview Rebecca Line of the Day: Sc. 3 - no Tracy Sc. 4 - no Tracy Sc. 5 - Lulu says she hoped her Dad would show up during the fire. Tracy says it doesn't matter because she knew he wasn't going to show anyway. Lulu laughs and says she's such a bad liar for a Quartermaine. Tracy says he can't be counted on anyway, and Lulu counters that Luke us usually there when you need him - this just happens to be one of those times when he wasn't. Tracy is upset/angry saying with all the progress they'd made, with all the times he told her he loved her, she should have known it was all a lie. Tracy says she's been calling everywhere, even that bar in Mexico. Lulu looks away and says love's an illusion anyway, and gets off Tracy's bed as she walks away. Tracy looks at her concerned and says she's too young to be that type of cynic. Sc. 6 - no Tracy Sc. 7 - Spin makes it out alive and right in to Maxie's arms. Lots of hugging and kissing and Win looks like a little girl loosing her first crush... and no Tracy.

I'm actually not missing LuNacy as much as I thought I would. I'm enjoying watching Tracy having some serious quality time with other people who love her, and having the parent/child relationship with both Edward and Lulu in her different roles. Tracy has always been the better mother to Lulu IMO, and the connection between JE/JMB is great when Lulu is listening instead of yelling. I'm even okay with the Ethan stuff - not great but okay - I like that Luke is spending time doing something other than grovel for Tracy. Now I love the groveling, and he usually has reason because he's such an idiot, but I'm now seeing the two strong characters they are rather than that crapfest we were suffering under last year. When they get back together the energy levels will be high again. As for the saving part.... intellectually you're right Hooked, Tracy says Luke doesn't have to play hero with her and that's great. But emotionally.... Tracy almost died twice, and I was hoping for some serious emoting by her bedside. She might say she doesn't need him to be her hero, but I think she needs to know that he would be her hero. Having him completely oblivious to her needs isn't working for me. Mind you, it's better than him knowing and deciding she can take care of herself. Just progress wise, I'm also noticing that LuNacy was the first couple 'split' as it were (ClauSon were actually together, CarJax had the window thing, JoLu have now seen each other, Scrubs had many check-ins before the crisis, Spixie will be together again by the end of the week), and will be the last one reunited. I don't know if that has any significance, but I notice things like that.

Those mediapics of TraLu haven't been shown - all their scenes were darker and from a different angle, and Tracy wasn't gesturing. As for the Luke/Ethan however, those don't look new. So for today, no Tracy but we did get a Tracy shout-out from Lulu. She was sick of listening to Maxie wax poetic about Johnny's heroics so she told Maxie she was going back to Mercy to check on Tracy. Otherwise, Mac was the Vet of the Day... Claudia almost tells Sonny about Michael but stops and later tells Johnny about Kate Nic's obsessing about Rebecily is really ticking her off and she wants nothing to do with him JaSam still looking for Spinelli, who's crawling around the airducts Lulu talks to JoMax who are acting weird, then later listens while Maxie goes on and on about Johnny's heroics Patrick being interogated by Rayner then later reunites with Robin/Emma at home The room Spinelli's in explodes as Maxie watches from the ground

I'm wondering what is going on behind the scenes. I don't know what to believe with spoilers or any of it - but we are getting unexpected Tracy gold so I'm going to keep the complaining to a minimum. The Lulu/blanket thing - meh.... her coat was left in the hospital and it is winter. The blanket was about all she actually had. My spidey sense tells me we will be having more TraLu before the week is out. Edward/Monica are obviously getting involved in one story, Tracy in another. It's disorganized, it's chaotic, it's far from the Magnum Opus Guza had been bragging about (perhaps his "never been seen before" meant all his ideas thrown into one pile), but at least Tracy is part of it. They are obviously splitting JoLu and playing with JoMax. I won't be surprised if JoMax walks away in the opposite direction tomorrow totally unaware that Lulu was standing there, and then Lulu returns to Tracy. The whole "Luke/Ethan up to their old tricks" was misleading. Today was perhaps the most depth we've had with them. The trashing Lucky thing I think is an overreaction - but then Guza is as subtle as an anvil when it comes to hints where a story might go. They are obviously setting Ethan up as 'the son I wish I still had'. My Lucky Love is being sorely tested by LnL2 anyway, so I'm not feeling much sympathy for the character these days. I just remember that last time they 'fixed' a problem, Tracy was practically MIA and when she was present she was only fighting with Luke. Sounds like this time it will be different. I can feel a great difference between 2008 and this - now if they can get themselves out of the biotoxin story (at this point the exit is going to be sloppy anyway, so just suck it up and move on), and get on to the other stories they have been lining up: Rebecily, Who's Ethan, PPD, Claudia's Choice, SORASed Youngun's, Bring Down the Feds.... then I'm good. They seem to have gotten the word that vets are wanted: Rebecily includes Monica/Edward, Ethan/Lulu includes Tracy/Luke, PPD includes Mac, and the SORASing and Feds will include Alexis. I think Bobbie and Mike will continue to be a no-show considering they aren't contract players, and I doubt we'll be seeing Ghost Alan again for awhile. I just saw this on SD.... The last Zacchara standing will be Claudia Look for Johnny to self destruct when Michael reawakens Fast cars can be so dangerous Who will be with him when he crashes and burns? I've been thinking Johnny would be the next sacrifice, and this pretty much says it. I wondered why they didn't have the 'big revelation' from Trevor to someone about his favourite son. We had that hanging "Know your brother was loved and wanted more than you" but no identification as to whom that brother is. They are going with Spixie and Luthan, Johnny and Winnie will take a powder (hopefully one of them will leave is something other than a casket). AZ is going sooner than expected. There's certainly a sense of 'cleaning the house'. Kate is in the process of self-destructing but not before bringing Ric into her plan. With AZ/Trevor gone, Claudia now about Sonny and Alexis occupied with the girls, I wouldn't be surprised if Ric leaves too - he hasn't really had a purpose since the scabs. I feel we're in for the deluge before the soap-seas are calm again. Batten down the hatches and be grateful this time Tracy/LuNacy are part of the show - TG's contract/story assures that at least.

I honestly have to say the first part of this 'crisis' was very entertaining. Tracy getting sick, killer sarcasm, cast integration.... But today was just dumb. That building is on a slow burn, Spinelli would be dead from smoke inhalation by now. How can the stairs work for some but not for others. And JaSam..... don't even get me started on how much I hate them together. I'm ready for this to be over and the next stage to begin. And get LuNacy back on my screen NOW. By the time they meet up next week it will be 7 weeks apart. Not that it's been all bad, because Tracy has actually been well shown and part of a story outside Luke, but enough is enough.

I think it's too soon to say that Tracy won't be on this week - they are showing more characters and Alexis wasn't expected today but there she was. Sorry, hit post before I was finished... I didn't get the sense on Friday that they were talking men. So perhaps Lulu returns to Tracy and tells her about JoMax and Lulu not liking what she saw. Then they would both be contributing to a conversation, talking about Luke and Johnny. That seems more in keeping with what they are doing with TraLu, and preparing for Ethan/Luke next week and the week after.

Afternoon all... well, spent the morning going through old photos - 1930's old. Nothing is stranger than seeing a picture of your grandmother dating your grandfather and looking all schmoopsy with him. And beside my pack of well buried Chip'N'Dale playing cards, was this trivia card game from Days of our Lives..... I wish I had been into GH the same way back then, those cards would have been interesting. I wasn't expecting to see Tracy today - 5 days in a row would be to much, but today... STATS Vets: Luke, Alexis, Monica, Edward, Mac Kisses: n/a Appearance: n/a Other Stories:Johnny saving Maxie who was trying to save Spinelli; ClauSon and CarJax reunite; Robin with Emma; Nadine/Nic/Nadine/Matt uncomfortable post-crisis; Raynor interupts Kate's telling on Claudia and holds Sonny for questioning; Alexis looking for Sam; Lulu back at GH to find Johnny; Jason/Sam looking for Spinelli; Rebecca is freaked out by Nicholas; Kate threatens Claudia who laughs her off; Mac visits with Robin/Emma (very sweet); JoMax hug in front of Lulu; Line of the Day: Kate "I know what you did" Claudia "That sounds like a bad movie" Sc. 1 - no Tracy Sc. 2 - no Tracy; Luke/Ethan still in jail and Luke's fed up. He demands the deputy call Lucky ASAP. Sc. 3 - no Tracy; Luke says the deputy is denying him a phone call, and he has a right to call his son - the least of which he will get transfered to PCPD. The deputy isn't budging an inch. Luke talks about Lucky to Ethan, saying he was remarkable and turned into a moralizing cop - why he did is one of the great mysteries of Luke's life. Meanwhile Monica and Edward have called Mac repeatedly and tell him about Rebecca, and Mac is stunned that all they have in a name. Edward tells Mac if he saw someone who looked like Georgie Mac would move heaven and earth - Mac knows he's right. Sc. 4 - no Tracy; Luke talks more about Lucky, saying it's strange his son is a cop. But who is he to judge, Lucky's a grown man. Then Luke gets drunk saying Ethan probably condems him thinking he's nothing more than a drunk who hates cops and doesn't care about his kids. Ethan says no, he gets it - Luke would probably like it if Lucky had been an outlaw. Luke says yeah, he would. Then says he and Lucky started out so well... he doesn't know what went wrong. Sc. 5 - no Tracy; Ethan asks if Lucky was always on the straight and narrow. Luke says no, as a child he was a natural with cons. Ethan suggests Lucky might just want to shake off the legacy and quotes something to Luke which Luke recognizes. Luke reads Hemmingway, who knew? Ethan got it from a matchbook - they laugh. Meanwhile Nic visits Monica/Edward who says Rebecca is fine. They pepper him with questions. Sc. 6 - no Tracy; Luke/Ethan wonder how long they've been there, and Luke suggests the break out of there. (at hospital, finally a background fire alarm). Meanwhile Nic still with Monica/Edward talking about Rebecily Sc. 7 - no Tracy

You are rarely trite, my dear. Straight to the point, cut through the BS, hold the sugar... direct. Never trite. I'm not thinking about James in any special terms. I'm wondering where the hell did it go wrong for my marriage. And I know exactly what prompted James - he was sitting behind me the whole time while his wife nursed their 4 month old son. They heard the same sermon I did. Interestingly enough he's been carrying that for some time - I've only been carrying the sweater. When I first saw him a few years ago I couldn't remember his name, but he knew me instantly and remembered mine. James is part of an enjoyable memory. It's life with Mike that's the problem.

Can't sleep...blech.... That vid was great, Ms.Q. And chin-up about slbitch on SOC, just put her on your permanent ignore list. The other ewcbo hopefulls are at least respectful. That one's just poison. Trust me, life's more enjoyable over there without her harping. So.... meandering around the dial... SZ is run by someone who still hasn't let LnL go, so the wording of the spoiler doesn't surprise me. But this was on the gossip page, ignore the poor grammar and GOS and all.... But why is Tracy’s eyes gonna bug out either this or next week when she gets a load of Ethan? Is he her son by some long-lost love none of us know about? Over on Wubs the spoilers are in, with this addition (although nothing new).... Looks like Ethan is going to charm Tracy–he may move into the Q mansion, and work on the Haunted Star. And the post-mortum for Friday is on on DC... Loved the Tracy/Lulu interactions. See, it is possible to like Lulu (although I think it's because she's not with Johnny) General sense out there was that TraLu was amazing, but viewers are not amused that Lukey was a no-show. Hope TPTB rectify this somehow. On a personal note, the most disconcerting thing happened in church this morning. As most of you know, my marriage is pretty bad and rarely does it have it's good moments. Well that's the context. One of the men in our church I knew 20 years ago when we attended a student conference together. In fact we dated that week and were pretty inseperable. He sat beside me unravelling yarn while I knit a sweater - that's the kind of special man he was/is (I still have the sweater and think of him every time I wear it). Well today the sermon was about forgiveness, and after Eucharist he put his arm around me and apologized for not treating me very well all those years ago. I lost it. I completely disolved. My husband can't apologize for anything and calls me some pretty hideous names, and this man can apologize for not being nice to me at the end of one special week 20 years ago.... I just don't know what to do with that. 1:30 AM and I'm still mulling it.

This just popped up on SD.... Expect Robin's PPD to fizzle out and Scrubs go back to limited airtime. Frons adores this couple but Guza is bored with them. Sonny & Claudia is the story. Frons and Guza are very happy with the feedback. Kate and Ric will play foils, along with Carly. CarJax is getting back together but expect Jax and Olivia to continue interacting. No decision on how far Jax/Olivia go. As of now, it's just something to balance out Carly's time with Sonny/Claudia. LL2 is being moved into the Nik/Rebecca story. Expect the Qs to be involved as well. No decision has been made on whether Rebecca is really Emily. Jasam will be slow. With Steve's contract up in October and KeMo's Vegas gig, they will wait and see before making them a full blown couple. JoMax will continue to interact. Spixie will remain close friends, as they are now. LuLu's story is on hold as they flesh out Ethan. JoLu is over due to minimal support the pairing received. TG is very happy with his current story. Expect more Luke and Ethan, along with Tracy and LuLu.

Oh..... you can tell I don't like in the corporate world. I never thought there would be another meaning. Yup, that's the Canuck in me, eh....
