It's Your America
Episode 9: Bravotv.com's Editor ponders a life with George Drescher and Carole's couch.
Jul 30, 2012Thankfully the ladies quickly submerge themselves (even Aviva's non-swimming leg) and turn the topic to facial yoga. Of course, it's hard to not go to a less than adult place when you're suggestively puckering your lips for long periods.
But as soon as the gals faces return to normal, Ramona gets a bit huffed about Aviva's leg. It seems this isn't her swimming gam, and, despite Aviva swearing it's fine to submerge, Ramona wants her out of the pool, like yesterday. She gets a touch aggressive about the definition of wet -- did you know there's such a thing as "wet wet." This does not bode well for Aviva saying Ramona was already a lot to handle before she told her how to have an artificial limb.
Queens of Clean
Back at the abode, Ramona and Sonja are showering together and leaving Aviva out -- most likely because there simply is no more space in the shower for her. I'm not going to ask for the logistics of how the shower hardware was all lost to the cause, but it was so let's just move forward. All the gals primping and preparation (and need to sleep together) is in the anticipation of George. George’s arrival is imminent. Stress is building! Aviva is cursing!
Id really like to see more pics or caroles sofa, well the whole apt for that matter
Dear Carole, If you ever feel you can part with that amazing couch I will gladly take it.I'm an artist who has an eclectic home myself....your couch would fit in perfectly. That couch speaks volumes in character and style. Lauri...kindred style soul...
Watching Ramona and Sonja together again was so fun. This season had been dull so far. Just love their antics and seeing how obvious it is that they are having fun and enjoying each other.. Hope to see much more of them. The other ladies can be so boring. Carole is great though in her own way. Her reserved personality makes her a great straight man for the Ramonja twins.
George is the single version of Jersey's Rich - can you imagine them two in the same room?
I would like to speak on Ramona's behalf. Yes she is socially inept. She grew up in an abusive home. I did as well. Both of my parents tried to teach us that people don't deserve respect, they are to be ridiculed and humiliated. I recognized at an early age that they had serious issues. My sister did not. I still feel very uncomfortable around people because I'm not sure if I am acting in an appropriate manner. I try to say and do the right thing but sometimes I fail. My sister on the other hand treats all people as if they are garbage and will explain to you why you deserve to be treated this way, me included. Ramona has said that she knows she doesn't always behave appropriately and can say things that are mean. It is very difficult to retrain the brain after a long period of abuse. My abuse lasted 54 years. It's the only type of behavior you are used to and very difficult to unlearn. She's making an effort to do better and I think she should be given the opportunity to do so. She's not the only housewife who has behaved badly this season or in the past seasons.
janetkath I am sorry your life was tough and I am glad that you were able to recognize early how wrong your parents were. Sometimes it is easier to blame someone else for our failings than to take responsibility and make changes. Your sister chose her path. She may have been pointed in that direction, but she had a choice. I hope you can find peace with your past and move forward. Once you let it go you will be better for it. Best wishes to you.
Am I the only person around that is disgusted with Ramona and her overbearing, uncouth, loudmouth behavior? I like the show, but Ramona makes RHONY really hard to watch.
I gotta have it! RAWR
