There's gotta be something other than her running around like a crazy person at parties...twitching.

Well, they did throw in Ramona twitching at the yoga studio like a crazy person. Still not enough for ya, andme?

I just love to see Ramona go bat-shit crazy, and for that reason, I love Holla.
This is exactly why I'm head over Heels for Holla, too.

They all annoy me to death but anybody who can aggravate Ramona, til she's frothing at the mouth, is aces in my book. ;)

What Ramona doesn't seem to understand is that when I am relaxing with my friends or shoe shopping I really don't want my leg to be the focus at all. I want to live life like everyone else, without 80 million questions or a barrage of orders telling me when I can and cannot swim or for how long. While I am very open to questions about my prosthesis and accident, Ramona somehow thinks she has a say in how my prosthetic leg can and cannot affect me. Ramona has no problem using my leg as an excuse when she wants to leave a Miami swimming/yoga session so she can get to her next party to drink pinot ad nauseum. For whatever its worth I never "panicked" in Miami over my forgotten swimming leg. I adjusted to the situation and moved on. It was Ramona who used my little situation to get herself where she wanted to be -- which was out of the pool and into the car where Mario was waiting downstairs to take her partying.

Who is Ramona to tell me when my "disability" affects me or not? The fact is that when as a six-year-old my leg was churned in a piece of farm equipment and I thought I was going to die -- it has left some lasting psychological issues, which I wish were not there. You would think that anyone would understand that -- especially Ramona who was acting as if she was so concerned in Miami. She wasn't concerned, that was a charade to get me out of the pool because the yoga session wasn't all about her and she had a party to go to. It is interesting that Ramona has taken such an interest in my leg when I am going in a pool but she has such a hard time understanding that I have anxieties that trace back to an accident when I was six years old trapped in a machine which left me holding on to my life for two months?

I honestly didn't think Ramona was terrible to Aviva at the lunch. In her own way, I think she was trying to be supportive. I thought Luann was much more manipulative in trying to get the trip off the ground with her pat, "What I do is just face my fear."

But I guess Aviva hates Ramona and Sonja and Lu is on her good side.

These are defining moments for real friendships. A friend has a problem. How will the others handle it? With compassion and understanding? Or self interest and mockery? A friend, in my opinion, is someone who is there for you during the ups and the downs. I appreciated LuAnn's suggestion to do the trip afraid and Carole who was very open minded to do whatever it would take to get me on the little plane. Heather was sitting next to me and told me that she felt the life being sucked out of me that day. It was not fun.

Wait a minute. Stop the press. Did Sonja Morgan just give me marital advice on how to keep my husband missing me? As the story goes, she lost her husband on her last girls' trip. Enough said.


Looks like Aviva knows where all the bodies are buried.

I just realized what was going on with Sonja's period. I think she's in the "flooding" stage of Peri-menopause. That, and then forgetting proper names of things are the two biggest signs that your body is going to enter a new stage.

One of my friends was visiting me when that happened to her. She was normally a medium tampon girl, with fairly light periods. She's also very private about things like that. She was unable to be "private" because she started the whole flooding thing. She was going through a super tampon and pad every hour, so she had to tell me, so I could run to the store and get more supplies, also, she thought she might be dying.

Yeah, as someone who suffers from anxiety and mild phobias, I found LuAnn's statement to show a stunning lack of insight and compassion. It was presumptuous, superficial and very insensitive to Aviva's feelings. Ramona was bordering on crazy rude, as usual, but I agree that probably in her own way she had good intentions. I need to rewatch, but my first impression is that Carole was by far the most understanding and accommodating of the group. I can't remember if Heather said anything to encourage and support Aviva, but Holla is okay in my estimation. I generally like her, and if only she had not excluded Ramona on the London trip, their ugly drama all could have been avoided.

Ouch! Apparenty underneath Aviva's vulnerability and people pleasing demeanor on camera there lies a very steely side. That was low. Not to be petty, but it also bugged me that she had Reid pick up the holiday gift. She can't do it herself? And I say this as a viewer who wants to like Aviva.

I noticed that too about Aviva's comment - she knows how to go for the jugular and I think she has been around the fabulous crowd long enough to know the good dirt.

Good point about Reid getting the gift. It's not like Aviva works! ;) Although she could have been busy planning her charity event that apparently Ramona and Sonja blow off.

I see a certain bond between the three veterans. When someone said something about snakes, Ramona basically nudged Luann about it, and they had a good laugh.

I wonder if at this point Luann is thinking, better the poison that you know. Carole has been giving her a hard time, Aviva goes off on her about the wine and Holla! (sorry I love the ! as it reminds me of how hip, urban and funky Heather is) telling her to let the little people in first. We know that Luann, Sonja and Ramona join up to boycott further filming.

I enjoyed Carole not picking at Luann, and they seemed to get a long well.

Aviva's blogs all have a vicious streak. She seems mild and tongue tied in person, but her blogs seem to show her true self.

Found this at Sucks, from the band that played "I want to fuck you in the ass!" ;)

Ran across this recrap of the last episode.... http://www.littlemissbrav...ry-stumblebum-christmas/ It's not very well written, but there are comments from the "Stumblebum's".

The Stumblebums says:

Yeah, the Stumblebums were pretty funny. Well, we did play Christmas tunes for the guests arriving. We also played the big sing along. They asked for another song and since LuAnn treated us like garbage, well… that’s just what you get. Jacques is the man though. Someone tell Carole to give us a call. Obviously she gets it.

The Stumblebums says:
August 7, 2012 at 5:35 pm

Yeah, we have a Twitter account for sh*ts and giggles. @stumblebums Notice how they don’t mention us by name anywhere. Trust me, there were about a hundred emails just to play Jingle Bells. They didn’t want us to play any copyrighted material so they wouldn’t have to pay for it. It’s always fun to hear how someone rich and making $26,000 an episode tell us how we should work for free. LuAnn even missed her own rehearsal. What a pathetic way for me to have to make a hundred bux. Jacque paid us twice that and wined and dined us like royalty. He’s the man in our book.

Oh Icy! I know you hate Lulu (and you hate hur hair!) but you know I'm always gonna love my Lulu.
But I still love you anyway, Icy.And it was great dish to read!

I think that's me that hates her longer hair this season :P - last year I had her cut - but the shorter S2 version. Still Icy and I certainly agree on our dislike of the Countless although unlike Jill she is essential to the show - provides lots of snark material and looks good.

I can't open the articles until I get home but I'm looking forward to reading them.

Thanks for the news about Lulu's back up band. That cracks me up. If you watch that scene mute the sound [always a good idea when Lulu is crooning] and you can see those ho-wives scatter like rats when the band starts up. Not very creative - but funny.

LOL Cosmo. It's just that when Icy gets on a roll on her hatred for one of the howives she'll throw in "I hate her, I hate hur hair!"
I will say, IMO that while the Countess could do something a little different with her hair (I guess she doesn't have to worry about wearing a Countess crown anymore;) ) she still has a way to go before it reaches the shitdom that is Clownie's hair this season.

I don't hate the Countess. Do I? Maybe I said so, I can't recall. But sitting here all calm, I can't think that I did. Hmmm.

I hate Jill.
I hate Clownie.
I hate Kyle.

Quite logical, these hatreds. Luann would be a waste of my time. I just posted those articles because I was clicking on all the links for further reads, and those ones were the best. IMO. In my hateful opinion. ;)



OOPS, ETA: I hate Taylor more than the others combined. ;)

Yeah, I don't hate the Countess - but I do like making fun of her. I like it when Ramona or even Carole gets her ruffled up.

No kidding. On the horrible hairstyles - the OC girls win hands down too - at least equal with Clownie.

While watching this week's episode of NYC I kept picturing these coiffed fancy New Yorkers traveling together on an RV and staying in a beachside parking lot. Heh.
