Random thoughts: I also thought that Sonja was a little tipsy at Ramona's lunch, and agree, she felt uncomfortable because she didn't have any money to donate. I liked Carol this episode, and she is certainly empathetic regarding others' feelings (usually, except I guess when it comes to Lulu) You know, for all that everyone is always picking on Lulu, she did show up to Aviva's event. And while she maybe forgot that it was for charity, she did say, "I have to make sure they have my card". And she was a good sport about the whole thing. Can't wait to see what mischief she gets into next week with Faux Johnny Depp. While I totally agree that Ramona is reality show gold, I don't think I would make it around her for very long. She seems even worse this season; like someone said, as if she is on something. And you know what? For all her posturing, she is quite crude. The c- word? Really? When you know you are miked? I bet Avery loved that one. And I do have to agree with Aviva on 2 things: 1.Sonja and Ramona are everywhere there is free booze and 2. they are white trash. It's not like they are twenty somethings. Ramona is older than I am, and Sonja is just about right there with me. A little decorum? At least once and awhile? Heather? Still love her because she can get Ramona twitching faster than anyone else on the show. |

Well you all know I cannot stand Heather and I find her a fraud. What was that gross shirt she was wearing and she thinks she's such a great dresser. Ugh cannot stand her. So happy she was only in the first half of the episode. So Aviva has a personal trainer. Guess we know why she's so super skinny and this is coming from a skinny person. Bet she works out every single day being a SAHM. She is the epitome of the UES mom with nannies. Pass your kids off and work out. So glad actually that it isn't natural like Carol. |

I actually liked Ratface this episode. Yay? I guess Old Man Morgan heaves a sigh of relief every time he catches his ex's show. That is, after he hits himself crying "what was I thinking?" Is it possible he could use this show as evidence in their divorce or child custody issues? |

Heather doesn't really bother me and she made some valid points regarding Ramona. Ramona does pretty much get in your face, scream, and then run off before you can present your point. |

I've got to agree. That was not some giant fundraising event that took months to plan - it was a spinning class of about 30 people plus the ho-wives. Truthfully, I would have skipped it for any reason and sent a check. However, I would have would have skipped the explanations. That said, Avia is kook. Who goes to someones home, accepts what I'm sure was a very generous check and then proceeds to scream at them for not "supporting children without limbs." Good grief, the cost of one of Avia's high end prothetics would probably buy a dozen prothesis for the kids. STFU already. And that goes for Sonja too. I don't think she needed to get all involved in her excuse - just say my dog is sick, I'm not going and send a small check. And of course Ramona and Sonja would have showed up if this was real event with gowns and free booze and hundreds of people; that's how to get the big bucks from weathy/rich people. A real event with a hundred wealthy people besides four ho-wives [one of which wasn't even aware of fundraiser and one of which is broke] would be good too. St. Barts looks awesome. I wonder what Le Ross will make of Faux Depp? Edited by Cosmocrush, Aug 21 2012, 02:39 PM.

Oh, I forgot my other point earlier. Who died and made Aviva ruler of all things polite? WTF is she to scream and lecture anyone about what is and isn't a good reason to miss her charity event? Oh, and it seriously bothered me when her little boy didn't want to get on the merry go round because he was afraid. Not only was it sad to me that he's only like 6 or 7yo and already picking up his mom's many phobias but it was even stranger that he said his worry was that it would make his penis shake? Uh, WTF? |

Yes, what a shocker that Aviva's kids are learning how to be afraid of everything. I'm kind of surprised they leave the house. Holla! is still grating but I did laugh when she got sooooo outraged about Ramoaner evesdropping on her since the whole thing started by Holla! evesdropping on Ramona. Whateves Holla! You will never get points telling a man his wife is crazy - even if she is. Edited by Cosmocrush, Aug 21 2012, 03:18 PM.

My nephew worries about his penis at odd times, too. I think it's just a little boy thing. (Pun not intended.) Yes, Willy -- who died and made her Queen? Incredibly rude to yell at people for not going to a charity event when the kids weren't there, won't know about it anyway, will never give two shits that Ramona and Sonja didn't come... they've got bigger problems. I had a small moment of loathing for Aviva for USING that child's moment to make her look good. The parents looked like "well, at least he gets his legs" -- as if they were going along with it for that ... they certainly didn't care to be on TV. |

It's a little boy thing to voice the worry - it's a male thing to worry about it. ;) My nephew used to run around naked upstairs after his bath - jumping on the bed etc. while his Dad tossed him around. When his baby sister got big enough to participate (crawl) he started wearing his underpants during that time. When his Dad asked him why he said he wanted to "protect his penis" in case his sister made a grab for it or something. ^o) Showing the little boy getting his prosthesis seemed over the top. We get it Aviva. Your brand-new-made-for -TV charity helps kids get prothetic limbs. Aviva is all about being "cool" about her leg EXCEPT when the cameras are there apparently. Then every other sentence is about her leg, her lifelong fears stemming from her accident, etc. etc. I'm glad she acknowledged that losing your best friend, her sister and her husband in a plane crash was a REAL reason to be afraid of flying and yet Carole is doing it.

There's a video on Bravo's site where Aviva tells Carole that her mother died of alcoholism and that the alcoholism was due to her mother's difficulty in accepting that Aviva had that accident and lost her leg. To me, it explains more of how Aviva ended up the way that she is and I don't think she's as okay with having a prosthetic as she claims to be. But while it makes me understand where she's coming from a little more, it doesn't make me understand how she's in her 40's now and still hasn't dealt with this and moved on. At some point, you have to just be done with the wallowing and make the best out of what you've got, especially in a situation like this where it's not like it's possible that her leg will grow back or something. I mean, I'm sure that had to be a horrible experience for Aviva as a little girl and for her whole family, and I don't want to come off as insensitive. But I think she's allowed that accident and all that's stemmed from it to rule her entire life and turn her into someone who, deep down, is still pretty bitter over it all. |

Oh, but remember, Willy -- what are the odds? I mean, she was practically a princess in NYC, growing up behind rose-covered walls with servants at her beck and call - she had only to ask and she'd have a tray of chocolate dipped strawberries and sparkling water held at her fingertips .... how could this have happened to HER? You or me? No problem. But AVIVA, QUEEN OF NEW YORK, MIGHTY AND GORGEOUS AND SO FUCKING IMPORTANT ... HOW? HOOOOOOOW? Of course she's bitter. ;) |

My problem with it is she keeps telling us she is all about NOT being all about her accident which clearly isn't the case. She was enraged when Ramona made a big deal about it in Florida but everything she does comes back to her leg. Aviva needs to pick a position. What's probably going is she decided to use this show to promote her new charity [or more likely signed up for the show and then made the charity so she feels the need to make her own situation a story - that's fine but she doesn't do it very well. ETA: Icy and I posted at the same time. I like her explanation better. :D Edited by Cosmocrush, Aug 21 2012, 03:57 PM.

Just saw the show. St. Bart's looks like another Scary Island in the previews, am looking forward to it. I am so tired of looking at Ramona's same matchy necklace and earrings in her talking heads and with different outfits in this episode. The other women change theirs out. Carole said she'd heard LuAnn had a song but had never listened to it. I guess she was too cool to check out previous seasons of the show she'd be on because we heard that song several times, I believe. |

Well, she is dating a member of Aerosmith. I wouldn't admit to ever hearing that "song" either in her place. I wonder if Lulu will try to bond with Richard over their "music" lol? |
