My New BFF

Can I just say, I totally love Heather. You know, HEATHER, from the Real Housewives of Orange County. That girl has class. And balls. And great taste. And, it appears, a great relationship with her husband. Kind of amazing for this group! She’s my current favorite. But that could change at any moment if Bravo decides to use their editing magic to suddenly make her appear to be the biggest bitch since Camille Grammar. I guess we’ll just have to wait and see…

And does anyone else have a little crushy-poo on Brooks? I know he’s no spring-chicken and probably has the saggy-man-boobs thing going on underneath his Tommy Bahamas (I have only HEARD about this from my 40-something friends currently in the dating world, thank God), but I just LOVE his southern accent (always been a sucker for Texans, too), and he seems so incredibly wrapped up in his infatuation with Vicki. The cards and the way he looks at her. It seems genuine. But Tamra thinks that he’s too perfect and can’t be trusted. So far I’m not seeing it, but then again, the accent is really getting to me so perhaps my judgement can’t be trusted!

Interesting episode tonight. Tamra almost looks good without make-up. Better than Gretchen, who I always thought was so gorgeous until I saw her going to a shoot early in the season without ANY hair or make-up done. I was really shocked – that girl is NOT a natural beauty, but she does clean up nice. And very photogenic, which is more than I can say for myself. And Alexis really surprised me with how pretty she looked without makeup when she was going in for her nose job. Of course, all the hair extensions were perfectly in place and what with the lips blown up like that, well, I guess it wasn’t a completely natural look. But she did look pretty good. I was impressed.

So now the re-run of the episode I just watched is on, and a year ago I would have been tempted to stay up even further past my bedtime to watch it again, but this year I’m just not feelin’ it. I look forward to the new episode each week, but then I have no desire to see any of them again. Is it only me? Or is the show just not all that interesting anymore? Except for my new BFF Heather? What do we think, ladies?
