Real Housewives of...Hell?

I have to begin by apologizing that I didn't make it to the computer yesterday to post - I was working alllll day and slept as late as possible because Big and myself were at a banquet for school the night before. The banquet was great but it's always surprising about these "smart" type women at school - quiet an d mousy, not to mention borderline frumpy all year, then throw a few drinks in them and they are whoring it up! There was so much stretched material and boobs flyin' everywhere...crazy, but fun.

Just a quick note for all you wine drinkers (of my three followers) I started working at a wine store lately and I really have been wanting to increase my knowledge of wine - beyond the three dollar bottle of Berringer EmStem and I drink on the weekends...I have tried three new ones so far - first: Jam Jar - a very sweet Shiraz, very light very fruity, highly recommend. Second: Red Diamond Merlot - a little heavier, not as sweet, a little bitter aftertaste, but overall I'd give it a 5/10 with a so-so recommendation. Lastly was the Beaujolais Villages Gamay - Delicious. This wine was great and I really enjoyed it - very mild with hints of fruit but really overall a great wind.

Now on to some more important matters. First and foremost, my readers know that Friday was my dad's birthday. Well, my dad has not had a drop of alcohol in more than thirty years (a personal decision), but still spends times in various bars with my mom because the two of them follow a bunch of Irish bands. They went out last night (Sat) to a bar the really like to hear one of these bands - now Big and I had made it an early night as we were both exhausted- and just as I'm dozing off, I get this text message from my mom:
Drunk girl flashed her ti*s at dad and said happy birthday then came back and did it again
Well - go dad. If you knew my father you would know that he is the calmest and most bashful man on this planet and I can only imagine what was going through his mind - wel lets not imagine that, but its hard to believe that of all people that this would happen to him - sorry dad.

Well on to the crux of this blog, and it will be a little shorter than I'd like because I do have to get going to work.
This weeks episode of Real Housewives of NYC. I am just appalled. I watched it this am and I just cannot believe that people this terrible exist on this planet.
First: Kelli Bensimon - wow. WTF is wrong with you. This woman could possibly be the stupidest thing on two legs. When she speaks, I bleed from my ears, which I am thankful for so that I cannot hear the stupid things that spew from her horse mouth. She walks around talking about her ex husband - the famous Jil Bensimon, fashion photographer, who is 700 hundred years old and he still left her. Well, Kelli, you are a dunce. The things you say and do are outrageously stupid. Your ugly hobo, dirty black knit cap is not "trendy" nor is it acceptable to wear in public because you look dirty and I would throw money at you if I saw you on the street. Just to wrap up - let's discuss the little snippet of her and Simon at some uber expensive trendy boutique. Kelli claims that Simon has no style so she takes him under her flabby wing and tries to dress him. Now mind you she shows up in the aforementioned hobo hat, an acid wash jean denim skirt from 1983, and a knit sweater with a giant bear crocheted on the back of it. Yes, Kelli, tell us all about fashion you fur wearing numbskull.

Jill: you are rotten to the core. Poor Bethenny is the nicest person on earth, and now pregnant, and because you are so self absorbed you can't understand that. And she is right - you only like the underdogs. Poor Bobby, how does he possibly tolerate you on a daily basis. I even have to admit that after last weeks episode and this weeks, I am on team Ramona, well I was until I saw her walk down that runway - but that's another story. Jill, give it up. Really. No one "ambushed" you and you shouldn't be "devastated". Welcome to the real world, where the rest of us that are not washed up Upper East Siders reside. Everyone has to go through life dealing with people they don't get along with. Seriously, suck it up and get over it. Bethenny was also right when she said that nothing she did would be good enough - and as soon as Bobby tells Jill about that letter, all she can say is "Well she didn't write me a letter" - OMG Jill. Give it up. Move on.

Ok readers, I have to go to work, but we will resume this later...Have a great day!!!
