If you have Comcast, the episode is OnDemand.

I thought and hope Carole is a real writer; otherwise I'm thinking the second book would've been much quicker.

She IS a real writer and I don't blame her at all if she lost her shit over Aviva thinking/saying/acting like she was on the same level. That would make me crazy if I spent more than decade on my craft and some crazy ho-wife like Aviva (Brandi, Teresa, JILL, Lulu, Bethenny) knocked out some trash with a ghostwriter. Puh-lease. Last night Aviva didn't even have an editor - I don't think she even knows what that entails since she actually asked Carol for some freebie editing. Ugh.

I did read that Aviva's book is tanking on Amazon though and Carol's is rising. After reading the blurb I can see why. Anyone that saw even one episode of last season knows the story of How Aviva Lost Her Leg by heart and that she suffers from mass phobias (so why not go on a reality show!) It's all she ever talks about.

And she gave 5000 pictures of her life to Bravo, so you don't even need to buy the book for the photograph section.

mwah! Love you Cosmo! This is going to make my Friday night! Tequila and HWs. You know what Juicy says, "Happy wife, happy life!"

I officially love Holla! I tweeted something about her being normal and she replied/retweeted me! I am a cheap date. Lol.

They just did a live chat with Heather, Kristen, Ramona, Greg Bennett (blech) and Amy Phillips on Bravo.com.

Ramona said her favorite memory was her vow(el) renewal. Can you believe it. Fool.

Heather is pretty candid about hating Aviva and jokingly said she does worry about Jill Z waiting in her bushes to jump out on her. She seems very normal and down to earth.

Kristen seems to be enjoying it.

I think Lulu and Heather and Kristen are bonding. I think Ramona and Heather are frenemies or enemies. Like Heather doesn't like her, but maybe Ramona thinks she is joking.

That kind of surprises me. I guess she didn't have time with all her ho-wifely duties.

LOL about Jill. I like Holla! too. She seems smart to me - well as smart as someone that wants to be a ho-wife can be anyway. And apparently a sense of humor.

Someone remarked that Holla! lost weight and she said that seeing oneself on film does wonders for that. She just seems to have a really good sense of self.

I am wondering if Rue La la and Haute Look and NM Last Call, and all those online sites have done a number on Ramona's business too. Loehmann's and Daffy's here in NY both went bankrupt this year. Maybe online purchases have really cut into the resale business.

I thought Ramona did resales kind of like the designer stuff you find at TJ Maxx? Meaning it's last season or overstock or flawed somehow (even though it's rare that you can manage to find the flaw whatever it is).

She did. But apparently she gave it up.

I liked that in Carole's blog she pointed out that Aviva's comments a very close to legal slander. I'm no lawyer, but I think she's right about that. Writing IS the way Carole has made her money for decades, and implying it's all fake could damage her livelihood. So, damages as well.

I thought that was a clear shot over Aviva's bow.

Too bad they sign away their rights to suing each other when they sign on these show.

But Carole could sue Aviva's publishing house as the named source. It wouldn't go anywhere, but it would embarrass the fuck out of Aviva. I was waiting for her to say "I'm gonna sue you for slander"-- because it's patently obvious that Aviva made it all up and did intend to do damage. If not, she wouldn't have gone running to the other women to put in her side of things first. I was very happy with Kristin, BTW, for standing up for Carole with Ramona and Sonja and insisting Carole wrote the book, 100%. AND she did it with humor. Win win.

I'm really confused about my post about Aviva's house. Lost it - too tired in the am. She used a designer. Here is the link to the Open House clip
