Why hello! If you are actually reading this you must be looking for something to make last night’s knock-down, drag-out b*tch-o-rama just a tad less distasteful, and I promise to do my best but can’t promise much. First:

· ALERT! ALERT! Kim Richards has checked herself into rehab! At this time of year chances are good she’s in my hood, so if I have or hear of a sighting I’ll let you know. To my knowledge our local rehabs don’t do field trips like Celebrity Rehab’s beach day, but the truth of the matter is I haven’t been paying a lot of attention, so it’s possible. In all seriousness, anyone seeking help should be applauded, and given the time of year it would appear either (a) Kim’s getting serious about this, (b) Kim’s family has hit their limit, or (c) this is tied into the end of the season for attention purposes, which is an appallingly cynical thought but I can’t help it. No word yet on what The Bear thinks about losing his roommate. … Continue reading →

Hello again! I hope you had wonderful Thanksgivings and gave thanks for family. After I whipped up an extensive culinary extravaganza, my husband ditched me with the kids and the dishes and headed out to eat pie in the hot tub! I mean that in the traditional Thanksgiving sense so if your mind’s in the gutter, get it out. I wasn’t feeling too thankful after that, to be sure. Anyhoo, it’s Monday, I’m over it, and I think it’s safe to say we are rounding things out with the Housewives of BH 9-er this month. Let’s hope for the best as we get to the explosive end of this season. Fa la la la la! As for what’s next, I suspect we’re starting the new year in Orange County? An awful lot of those hos in this week’s news roundup:

· Vicki Gunvalson’s daughter, Brianna, eloped to Vegas with a military guy who just got divorced in 2010. If there was ever a child from whom elopement could be expected, it’s Vicki Gunvalson’s daughter.

Happy Thanksgiving! And I am thankful to Mr. Andy for giving us the Housewives, without whom my life would be an empty shell. Without the Housewives, I’d be finishing up the crazy pre-Thanksgiving dining room repaint project I so cavalierly undertook; with the Housewives, my husband is doing the work so I can recap for you. Taking one for Team Pump!

Just a few news items this week:

· Kim, who apparently kicked her own mother out of her 11/11/11 wedding (per a website called Straight from the A), also fired Sweetie sometime earlier this year (per daughter Brielle’s social networking account). Sweetie, honey, I have work for you. Come to Brown Acres, we’ll set you up.

· In addition to having an active Match.com account, Kim’s new boyfriend also apparently has a past DUI. They are quite a pair! Meanwhile, sister Kyle has been sharing her thoughts about Smokey and the Bear quite openly, because Kim doesn’t read news in paper or online so she doesn’t know when Kyle’s talking behind her back. … Continue reading →
