But it turns out that building was built as a pool house -- not as a house-house. I'm not certain there is a difference, except perhaps a house-house would be more traditional or painted more traditionally? It is an odd color -- which I like, but I can understand the confusion. AND Ramona said "This is beautiful" when she came inside. Seems like in Morocco someone wanted to unpack for Ramona and she insisted on doing it herself, or am I remembering wrong? (possible!)

I didn't think Ramona made a big deal about the AC -- even went to the door and took care of the delivery and install herself. But we saw it all because of Bravo …

I just can't forget that this was a Bravo shoot, not a real trip. In that kind of heat I'd be hurting, unhappy, likely to fight!, say stuff I regret, I'd LOOK LIKE SHIT BECAUSE I SWEAT!, my makeup would run and my hair would be crap. Add on "captured on video forever" and I'd be so livid, I'd be looking for the exit sign, too.

I think Ramona was the host of Scary Island. Did she fail to be a gracious hostess? She took Jill away in private and explained that she'd arrived too late and would upset everyone, apologized and made plans to see her later … and as for Kelly, what could she have done? Did anyone complain? Again, I can't remember and I hate that!! I used to be able to recall details years later! now it's all merging … too much similar shit ….

I thought Ramona did a great job on Scary Island. Arranging those mani-pedis and a relaxing day after the nightmare of the previous night when the producers finally had the men in white coats (or the equivalent) take crazy Kelly away was perfect. She was also wonderful getting Jill away from them and handling that as graciously as she could, even though Jill made that difficult.

Honestly Icy, I get crazy in heat too, but the lake seemed cooler, and Ramona WAS "happy" out there, and she was gossiping in a really nasty way about Kristen, but that is just Bravo 101. I don't think the heat made her throw that, and try to clobber her with an oar too.

I so agree with you about being on film with limp hair and sweat making your make up drip at 56 (?) and surrounded by younger, fresher women who can still look good with lank or wet hair and no make up. I completely give her a pass for (BRAVO arranged) getting the air conditioner. They are about $300, and cheaper than going to an Inn or pissing off Bravo.

I still think she is on massive hormones to stave off age, and obviously the issues with Mario and his younger woman were wearing her down. I think the hormones are messing with her. Her jealousy of Kristen though is the most unattractive thing an older woman can do. Also, I got so sick of Ramona AND Sonja telling her not to talk, what they hell, Kristen is on the show too, deal with it, she gets to talk, it's her job to talk, and you can't get her fired by continually telling her that any and every topic does not include the newer, younger "wife."

Heather did go to trouble for one of her guests: she got that Elvis impersonator for Kristin. Surely that was more expensive than some fans for the house.


There were fans. Sonja and Ramona were in front of one in their room before the Bravo sponsored AC unit showed up. I spotted some around the house, too.

I detest being too hot. It's close to 80 here today and I'm sweating like a pig. Throw in hot flashes and I honestly feel like I'm going to melt into a puddle. I have to go to the grocery store and am looking forward to the AC in my truck.

Would I be happy with no AC? Absolutely not. Would I carry on like a lunatic about it? Nope. The guest also has an obligation to be gracious and Ramona failed at that miserably.

Who was the host at Scary Island? Ramona?
Also HATE being hot- yet have to go to so many things for Jake this time of year that are hot as hell. One of the things as a Mom, to help my kids if they were uncomfortable, are to do what Lulu said. Get a cold drink, get out of the Sun, stop jumping around like a lunatic- Ramona is lucky she has you, Icy- she should hire you- she needs your logic. Last Summer was FRIED in the Tri-State area- at the Hamptons, too- so I guess Ramona just stayed inside. I also find pulling my hair back makes a World of difference; I guess maybe not an option for Ramona? Because she wouldn't look like an "older Cameron DEEZ". Just don't like her. And I like not liking her. Watching Ramona makes me feel so much better about having not much $$$.

There is nothing sadder than watching an aging woman trying to hold on to their youth, instead of embracing the stage they are in. I don't mean exercising or covering the gray hair (although I happen to LOVE certain types of grey on women, I think it can be flattering as hell.) I don't mean moisturizing or even wearing Yummy Tummy.

I mean acting coquettish around much too young men, or attending a spa in full make up and a fresh blow out on your hair. I get that it sucks to be on camera when you are older and that it takes more work to look good, but look at Lulu. She looked absolutely lovely with almost no make up and stringy hair from the lake or heat, because she didn't look like she was TRYING too hard. Heather isn't that much younger and was sweating like a pig getting the food ready for all of them, but because she wasn't going for a glam night out on broadway look, it worked.

I mean really? A see through leopard nightie with a black thong and HEELS at a country breakfast. The hell? I didn't notice, did they have the feathers or fur around the toes? Probably.

Ramona and Sonja just seem so pathetic to me, in different ways, but perhaps for the same reason. Age. Get the fuck over it, it happens to everyone. Attacking the youngest member of the cast repeatedly just makes them both look more pathetic to me. Jealous, unattractive, fried hair, miserable and taking out on someone they both apparently feel is a threat to them somehow.

Oh, BTW, I am not giving Kristen a pass on her behavior, she's not blameless, but she was repeatedly provoked. Unless "spa" happened AFTER this trip, she'd already splashed Ramona once, and knew it pissed her off. I just like her more. For now.

BTW how can Ramona say she's not thrown anything since her dad? She threw wine at Kristen at the spa as well.

Um Ramona was talking shit about Kristen's hubby. Too bad about her hair.

Sonja tweeted a photo of her and Mauricio at the Bravo up fronts. He was looking for Kyle. Can't you see Kyle running over and pulling Sonja away from him!

Oh, the other angle about the blow-outs … maybe Ramona has a friend who does them who was promised she would say something, recommend him when people complimented her hair?? And so it gets fucked up and wet and poof! that goes out the window. Someone -- a blogger? no, Alex McCord!! -- was talking about "a housewife's brand" and how Bravo suggests you have one, then does nothing to help you. Maybe hair care was something Ramona was going to go into … just looking for reasons why (other than time, money, looking good) her blow-outs mean that much to her.

Maybe Ramona has some disability -- like a serious real learning or processing disability and has overcome it enough to get by, but has these fits? These tantrums? I cannot stand by her throwing anything at anyone ever. I think Kristin was wrong and got more annoying as time went by, but nothing she did or could do would earn that action. But something about the way Ramona left quickly, also the way Sonja protected her by hustling her away, pinged on my brain like "what if …" I'm certainly not the first to think of this, but again-- maybe that's what it is?

Icy I think she totally has a disability of some sort. But she needs therapy.

She was pretty good on WWHL about owning it.

Her hair looked fabulous and healthy on WWHL.

I was just giggling imagining Kyle spying Sonja draped over Mauricio and then hightailing it over there to separate them! Lol!

I just watched so I have a few questions

Why did Kristin have all those curlers in her hair when she called her dh and then at dinner that was apparently the same night had stick straight hair? Also why didn't I notice her bruise until they showed it to us?

Loving Lulu this season and just had to say that.

I don't care about Sonja doing Sonja. I know she is hamming it up. She has a goal. I don't know if I would like the show without her. She is a loon but quite necessary to me to make it halfway interesting. If it is all the truth and not a show that she puts on - who cares? Nobody said you have to age the same way as anybody else. You may not agree but it's your life and live it like you want. I can't imagine doing it but I must say I love when a 30 yo flirts with me. Not 20 - but that's me.

Kristen's curlers were huge, for body, not curls.

I don't remember her hair afterwards, but heat can flatten anyone's hair. I think she called her husband in the morning? So by dinner they could have been swimming or water-skiing. Apparently they didn't show that, instead decided to watch Sonja humiliating herself even more by hitting on a barely adult man.

That's basically what I'm alluding to - Bravo editing - you don't know when things really happen or when they cut and paste. It's annoying as hell.

Kelly clearly had a processing problem and they called her crazy. Still do.
