Jen is the New HoH of Big Brother 8

It's taking every ounce of patience and discretion I possess to wait until 9pm BBT (ok, 8:52pm BBT) to post something to the main page of the blog, so this could get long! As a fan, I'm soooo bummed Jen's gonna be HoH. So completely wrecked. Anyone, anyone else at all would have been preferable, cuz then Jen would have been on the block.

I wonder if the HGs could hear the collective groans across America as Julie announced the winner of the HoH comp? I actually yelled "NOOOOO" out loud. Crap. Crap. Crap!

Small revenge. They just revealed the HoH room, and it looks exactly like Kail's HoH room. Not a single change. I hope Jen lasts long enough to see them make a gorgeous room for the next person that wins HoH. :P

OK.. breathe. There are worse things in the world. Not in BB, but in the world.

As a blogger, I'm intrigued. Jen has been the most hated HG in the house since day one. It'll be interesting to watch everyone swallow their pride and sidle up to her for the week, and equally interesting to see who doesn't bother. This week will show us a lot about the game play of the remaining HGs. I was going to say it would show us about their character, but the truth it, if they're fully committed to the game, that has to go out the window to a certain degree. This is about being the last HG standing. Pride be damned.

Who will Jen's new BFF be? For the week, anyway. Or will she stick with Kail, and share her room with her, as Kail did?

Another potential, will Jen wield her HoH like she does her body - as a weapon? Will she demand extra attention from the men? Will any of the men try to develop anything with her to ensure their safety?

As much as I hate to have her in the position of HoH, it's going to be a very interesting week.

Dick is a sure thing to get nominated. She's hated him since day one, and his rant on her earlier today isn't gonna help him tomorrow during nominations. Him choosing to stay away from the HoH Room Reveal was quite telling as well.

For my next guess, I'll say Joe, since she's talked about eliminating him before, and he's one of 3 men in the house who she'll view as immune to her womanly charms. The other 2 being Dick and Dustin.

I wonder what she'll say in her speech. Will she be honest and say, I can't stand you, Dick? Or will she pile them both together and make a non-smoking speech. As the only smokers in the house, Joe and Dick are polluting her world and giving her cancer.

Puh-leeze!

It's only 7:30BBT. 90 minutes to go before I can post this without blowing it for the west coast. Actually, 82 minutes... we knew she was HoH by 8:52 Eastern.

I'm very curious to know who everyone is voting for in terms of America's Choice. This has got to be a careful vote, because you know whoever we choose will be notified within 5 minutes after Eric speaks to her. He's got to handle this one well, or he's toast, and we're partially responsible. There's no guarantee at all that she'll take his advice, but all signs point to her yacking about it to the other HG.

That said, I think the safest choices for Eric to push are Dick and Joe, since we know she's gunning for both. I hate to say it on both counts. Dick, I adore. Joe's growing on me. Jen's the one I wanna see gone this week. Uch. What a choice.

What are you guys thinking?

The polls are open until midnight pacific time (BBT), and you can vote online at: cbs.com

Choose wisely, and keep your fingers crossed Dick wins the Veto.
