Carole said most women don't have orgasms the first time with a new man. I actually agree with that, although there ARE certain men who have actually been trained well by some other women, and pay attention, have charm, technique, and can pull it off. In my experience they are the minority.
Mariah, I'm not disputing her facts, just her timing. Topic selection for a first date. Does she think it's cute and fun? Or sophisticated, single feminist, big-city woman?

Oh I agree! I thought it was kind of adorable how thrown she was by a cute guy.

No real surprises - Ramona said she'll work on her issues, then said she's not going to pursue therapy and is saying whatever she needs to get them off her back. Actually, I think that's OK - she may (does/ could use) need therapy but it's her life and for her to decide (IMO). She does need to understand she pisses people off with her behavior, however, and not expect to get treated with kid gloves.

Kristen annoyed me a few times and I can't pinpoint exactly why, exactly, but I'll try! First, I think it's because she involved her daughter's "delay" in this show. Maybe it will be helpful to people who have kids who don't walk at 17 months - of course, getting a therapist 3x a week would most likely help a kid - but I bet most people can't afford that. Oh, I don't know. I just think I wouldn't put my kid on a national reality TV show with that issue. Heather's son is in a completely different category to me and I don't fault her at all for her including his issues. I'm not trying to be controversial here at all, I'm just saying what I personally take away from this all.

Second way Kristen annoyed me - her hounding of Ramona at their meeting. Yes, Ramona was awful, but Kristen could have toned her reaction down. It seemed too dramatic and staged for more screentime.

Oh, and Kristen was very glib about the fact that the other women were hung over and she was all up for yoga. A little too smug.

I think there is no way Carole doesn't work out, regularly. She has to be doing so with that body at her age. At least I have never seen someone look that good in a bikini (again, at her age) without exercising. A LOT. I don't like this cutesy bullshit that she only likes child's pose and corpse pose but she can flip into that handstand. Bullshit.

I enjoyed the rest, I think.

Thanks for posting the recap, Fin. It gave me my afternoon chuckle. Poor Kingsley, sharing a name with Kim Richard's dog!

Carole's choppers from the profile are quite the site.

She is very thin - very thin. You are right. I can't do a handstand into a walkover thing without pulling out my whole body. I wonder what she does to be in shape.

Love Luann. She is very comfortable socially. You can tell she and the Count were out a lot.

Disagree - I was just like that till 48.5 and then BOOM - I also didn't even walk so that and M did a number on me. I had the same figure. Also she's not all built like the gym. Maybe she just walks or maybe she doesn't but it is possible. I even had a baby and was like that. I hate it now.

Carol on the date. Blech. Maybe she should date Aviva's pervy dad since they both like to talk about sex so much.

I'm liking Lulu again now that she has given up on the Countess crap.

I was agreeing with Kristin about Ramona needing to control herself with the tossing of crap at Kristin but seriously it was a little cut on the lip. Kristin needs to take a Xanax already. How much longer is Kristin going to go on and on about this?

I agree with whoever said Sonja was mad Ramona ditched her there, not that she left.

I generally like Holla but all of her pet names for people like when she meets up with them and is all "Hi Boo!" makes me irrationally crazy. I don't know why.

I kept waiting for Ramona to crawl out under the restaurant table like toddlers do when they want out and no one will let them. LOL

I was pretty annoyed with the "intervention" because it wasn't anything like that-- it was them trapping her so they could complain about how she does stuff they don't like -- but it was their side of it 100%. I mean, I think she did try to get out of going, but went and planned to suck it up, then it fell apart when she reacted too harshly, however provoked, and hurt Kristin. I think she did feel out of control, too hot, too upset, too confronted by her past and am-scrayed it pronto. I don't' find anything in any of that is enough for the women to feel so upset they needed to trap her in a booth.

Lovesnark, I love that you described her as a feral cat who is trapped. That is so apt! She was scrambling madly, then resigned. Look, if they can let Aviva not show up at all, why can't they just accept that Ramona had enough drama and wanted to be more comfortable? I agree that Sonja would just have wanted to leave with her. And as for the rest, I'll bet they had a much better time without Ramona around. Though Kristin maybe wanted to bitch and moan more …. so she got short-changed. NOT.

Finestra, for me it's that Kristin gets a mega apology and a bouquet of flowers and a SCENE THAT WILL MAKE IT TO AIR … and she has to hash it all out again and then bring up drinking. Whether it is true or not, Kristin has not known Ramona long enough to say "were you drunk" AFTER AN APOLOGY. Now before? I'd say it was an insult for the injury. But I think Kristin has indicated some long-held impressions from watching the show before this season. She's inhaling the drama and it's not a good look no matter how calorie-restrictive it is.

I did love her dress, though. But yeah, they all looked incredible at that restaurant, all of them dressed to the nines. If they made a pact to "bring it" this season, day-um, they are doing it!

Yeah, Carole on that date was embarrassing. However, I found Nick to be 100% lame. First of all, his Victor Garber-like mouth bugged me, then his general dishevelment (shave, asshole!) and being too nice to her for all the shit she pulled … I know, we're supposed to like nice men, but I found her so over-the-top, I would have actually preferred it if we saw that he thought that, too. Instead, she talks about sex, sex, and orgasms and he's glued to her. Stupid man. This is why she will never progress: men are too easy for her. She hasn't had to work. THOUGH maybe he was putting it on for the cameras. He's an actor? I never heard of him or saw him and at 52 … damn, guy, you're late to the party.

You know, thinking about it, Ramona's hair looked like shit for her meeting with the ladies but nicely done for her meet with Kristin. She knew she was being filmed, so I wonder if she just had more time for another blow-out, or had distressing news about Mario that put her in her hairdressers chair for hair-apy that day.

I'm sad that Le Ross and the Countess are broken off. And she did display impeccable manners during that double date, I thought. She's so cool and collected; the opposite of Chatty Carole.

Icy, we're doing a big cooperative trapping Sunday and Monday. On Tuesday I'm volunteering at the spay/neuter clinic that will take care of the cats we trap. I'll name a female feral Ramona. Surely, there will be a wild, scruffy haired orange female in the bunch :P

Carol's date:

Not late to the party at all. His father is Andre Gregory, director, great friend and collaborator of Louis Malle, and the subject of My Dinner With Andre.

Interesting, thanks for checking, Dilbert. I was surprised to find that Andre is still living.


ETA: Found this, too. Wondre what became of it.

Icy I think Nick Gregory was so kind to Carole because he was thinking with all that sex talk that he was going to get some of that sex that night.

Holy crap - I just watched the last ep On Demand; I have nothing to add, but realized while watching that I ate at the Kristen-Ramona-confrontation Payard less than two weeks ago! Flourless chocolate-walnut cookie and iced decaf. Good, but I should've just bought and inhaled a cake.
