   Loved Sonja this episode.
   I wanted to take Aviva and one of her peg legs and shove it down her throat. SHUT UP!!!
   But I know that she can’t because, *sniff* she got on a PLANE with her HUSBAND that could have CRASHED into the OCEAN, and then what about the CHILDREN? Because it’s NOT about AVIVA, it’s about the CHILDREN!!!

   Love love love Heather- she’s the only one who gets it. Who cares if RamonJa drink until dawn? Live and let live, amen sista!
   In other news, Aviva is the absolute worst.

   I agree that Aviva ( and let’s not forget her father) are the worst..and really who believes their story that he cheated on his 30 something with a 20 yr. old please?!.(both have path. problems and need shrinks)
   BTW.. Ramona treating Aviva in an” unwelcoming way”..was a flash back to Jill Zarin..when she entered the “island “late..after Ramona’s party began..Ram. was a bitch to her too….let’s face it she is a bitch…( but..Mario is a bigger bitch)..Ramona’s story is old and I’m tired..it is time for a recast…
   They can’t recast slut Sonja yet ..for many reasons that slut is too funny and a train wreck..Plus..she is too in debt..I will bring up that site to remind you all how in debt she really is
   ..and how the hell does Lu do it on 2 million? It is a lot of $$ in most parts of the US but doesn’t go too far in her circles..she is the second poorest after neg. balance Sonja..perhaps the two should troll together for rich husbands in B,B & B..there is a nice one on the UES with a doorman..must be where Aviva met her man…and if that doesn’t work ..it is in the middle of the pick up bar area..perhaps BRAVO could do a show around them..
   I am a Heather fan too ..along with Carol..they need more time……….

   Heather nailed it when she said Sonja and Ramona are party girls. For many people vacation equals drinking all day and night with some laying out and dancing in between and what’s wrong with that? We all either know some or are one! Can’t believe how much I’m liking Heather now!

   Awesome recap… Couldn’t stop laughing.

   “Lu’s looking as nervous as Aviva at a John Deere convention, though.” and “Bitter, party of one.”

   Best part of entire day was reading this…

    TV junkie unless you have access to their personal info or like in Jersey it was in legal documents, we don’t know crap about their net worth. I recall Sonja saying she was going to lose her house last year and here we are and she is still living in it.

    From my memory, Jill wasn’t invited to scary island, thus why Ramona was a bitch to her when she graced them with her presence.

    I am truly amazed by how great Sonja can look and then boom she looks like an older version of herself. Is it just make up?

    Poor Aviva. Thought she would get the gimp sympathy, but no.

    Romona needs inhibitors. Wonder if Avery is getting DNA tests to see if Ramona might not be her mom. Funny the contrast between Vicki and Ramona. Two hard working women, but Ramona does let loose and have a good time and Vicki well what happened to you?

    Brava to Sonja for cutting the other leg out from under that vile woman. Impeccably done!

    When I have a panic attack, and even when my anxiety level is just on very high, I cannot breathe normally – I’m not at hyper-ventilation levels but I certainly wouldn’t be able to summon up and maintain that incredibly loud, non-stop, venomous steam of vitriol for as long as Aviva did(nevermind trying to talk on the plane). She didn’t even need to pause to breathe, it positively flowed from her lips. That is NOT anxiety, that’s rage and hubris.

    I have to hand it to Miss Andy, though – A lesser man might have thought twice before he stole her ruby slippers.

    “IVF You and the Phobia You Rode in On” hahahahahahaha

    It just dawned on me that we never got to see the end result of the men cooking….lol.

    Aviva is THE WORST. Shut UP woman!!! When she and Heather sat down and she just starting blurting out about how hard it was to fly to ST. BARTH’S, I literally yelled OH MAH GAWD at my tv. She is unbelievable. I have major anxiety when I even think about being on a plane, but if that were me, I would have walked in and been so relieved I didn’t crash, I’d have started partying harder than all of them. She is a real piece of work. UGH

    Haven’t got past the first page…Love the title! Having ventured through IVF many a times to become Ohiomom, I give a big IVF you to LuAnn. It is never the thing you start out with when doing fertility.

    It is like someone with a broken faucet saying she is going to go out back and dig a well to fix it.

    The look on Carole and Heather’s faces was priceless when Aviva sat at the table and started talking about startving children…Just kidding! Of course she started talking about herself and St. Barths. Yada, yada, yada…I am so over her…Blech
    Kudos to Sonja for standing up for herself, yet staying classy. No flipping tables or pulling weaves on RHNY, boo hoo…:-)
    I agree with someone who said that Sonja looked really pretty while entertaing Ramona at home. She looked really young..
    Luann and a baby? I think it can be done, she is in her forties, isn’t she? I hope that she is doing it (whatever she is doing)for the right reasons. I hope that she is not trying to snag a reality show (“Single, Countless, and Pregnant” or “Bring up a bebe in my 40-s”).

    lol @ your stoner taco bell photocaps

    I went to Taco Bell the other night after having cravings for about a week (totally sober, BTW) and I was all happy ordering my baja chalupa and seven layer burrito….then I SAW those cinnamon twists and I was like “YESSSSS and cinnamon twists too!!!”. The lady informed me they were out of twists…FOR THE NIGHT! Im like “Lady it’s 9:00 on a saturday night, there’s gonna be some sad stoners tonight!”

    awesome recap,

    Awesome ‘cap BSL! The cats got irritated because I was laughing too loudly.
    Vivs is a Debbie Downer. I’m totally on the Heather train. It’s admirable how she just sat there and didn’t say, ‘Just STFU already!” to Aviva. Oy vey!
    Morally reprehensible? Seriously? All they did was have fun on vacation. They didn’t drown puppies or lead blind children into traffic. Get the prosthesis out of your ass lady! I’m still curious to know what her reaction was when she found out about Lu bringing a man home in the middle of the night. I guess the Countess was she morally reprehensible too.
    How do those skinny women drink all that alcohol? It’s got alot of calories!

    Great recap BSL! I’m with everyone on the Aviva hate, she’s insufferable

    “They can’t recast slut Sonja yet ..for many reasons that slut is too funny and a train wreck”

    I’m not down with slut shaming Sonja. She’s a single woman, by all accounts a good mom, and going through a difficult time right now (bankruptcy and divorce settlement issues) so I doubt she’s looking to date seriously. If she wants to date casually, which includes sex I see nothing wrong with it. Because she’s a woman she’s supposed to be a mom and that’s it? I’m pretty sure her ex has had his share of women since the divorce

    I wonder how that reunion is going to turn out now that Aviva knows that the viewers despise her. Is she going to hold firm to her stance or is she going to back pedal or is she actually going to apologize for calling RamonJa foul names and ramming her woes down everyone’s throat.

    Posted September 20, 2012 at 6:03 am

    I really can’t believe Aviva has not back-pedaled yet, seeing how every viewer is asking Bravo for her head at this point. Does she not have a PR person? And even if she is to self-important to see what an a-hole she is, can’t someone (family, friends, agent, manager….) tell her to eat crow right now so she can get back on the show next season?

    Labowner – totally agree about Sonja’s looks. Sometimes she’s absolutely stunning, and other times she’s a granny bird-face. And NO ONE, I repeat, NO ONE looks good in those types of headbands. Please make them stop.

    My rankings this week from Love to Hate…

    1. Heather is my Number 1. She seems to get everyone and is the most rationale..just a tad more than Carole since Heather doesn’t hold back her feelings. H0lla!!!

    2. Carole – Girlfriend needs to plan her guest lists for trips a bit more carefully. Love how she and Heather went to one of my people’s bar to get loaded. They were a fabulous mess.

    3. The Cuntess – Honey…I could never hate your two faced back stabbing punkin headed self. Some people just know how to live elegantly!

    4. Sonja – She’s rebounded by telling off Aviva. I am surprised Ramona didn’t ask her if she had changed the sheets before she entertained her in bed. God only knows whose DNA is splattered all over them on a daily basis….but is that a bad thing? You go Sonja…being a slut gets you extra points in my book.

    5. Ramona – She’s having too many moments of clarity lately but she still gets on my nerves. Calling Jill Zarin! She was even normal live with Miss Andy this week.

    6. Aviva – Go away you hypocrite. It’s takes alot for me to like Ramona more than someone else but you are just the worst. If I were Ramonja I would sick Kim D or Kim G from Jersey on her ass.

    Thoughts after the show:

    1. Oh Aviva, STFU already.
    2. Sonja can be very well spoken when sober – and Aviva might be out of her league with Sober Sonja.
    3. I want Drunk Carol to be my new BFF.

    That is all.

    Wouldn’t PR either write her Bravo blogs or edit? Her recent posts are NOT helping her. Any idea if they’d be involved in her decision to bring her father on the show?

    Btw, I don’t think everyone’s heard about Jamaica.

    Posted September 20, 2012 at 7:58 am

    @BSL, Aviva’s PR people probably tried to tell her what to do in this situation but she really thought she was right and the viewers were also going to see how the Evil RamonJa treated her.

    I get that taking shot and dancing on tables isn’t EVERYONE’S idea of fun. (I’m not sure why not) But morally reprehensible is pretty strong for some girls just letting their hair down.

    @ Laurenb52 I could not agree more with your post. Sonja has done nothing wrong. I say good for her she is going thru a difficult time and I hope everything works out for her. Damn if I were her I would be doing shots and letting lose too if some one paid for me to go to St. Barths! I can’t take pleasure in some one declaring bankruptcy because of a bad business decision. It’s not like she was scamming like some other housewives and their husbands.

    @labowner Jill was invited to Scary Island. She declined. And then decided to surprise them so she could make up with Bethanny. The girls had just been through hell with Kelli and were on their last nerve. Alex came unglued when Jill showed up (they had just had a rousing battle in NY) and Bethanny didn’t want anything to do with her. With two out of three of her guests not wanting Jill there, Ramona asked Jill to leave.

    Thanks Mimo. I’m okay with forgetting details for this or any other reality show.

    Interesting I was reading an article about that weekend and it mentioned Ramona standing alone and suddenly a hand appears from nowhere to give her a glass of Pinot.

    The producer manipulation is becoming all too evident in all of these series. Come on Andy. Losing what little respect I had for you. We all have to travel to Florida to pick up Vicki to get to Costa Rica?

    They should get a do over trip. To somewhere good. Maybe Nuku’alofa or Kerala. Or Daytona Beach. And invite all the Gallery Girls so they can mentor them. About how to get prepared for their destiny as Real Housewives of Season 24. And to quit letting Eli give them walks in the bathroom gardens of night clubs.

Really goes to show that you shouldn’t make hasty reality show first impressions. Hated her most for “Holla!” But now, well, Holla! Heather.

    and in my neighborhood the idiots at Con Edison are tearing up the streets for god knows why and its bringing out an infestation of water bugs. I found one in my apartment this morning and freaked out. I’m glad I got to it before it scared my babies. Cretins!

    Also, too funny, I can’t seem to spell chaffuers so when I right clicked the word the first word that came up to replace it was “cockchafers”, what the hell!?!
