Every year Father’s Day sneaks up on me and I’m left racking my brain trying to find gifts that are somewhat unexpected or at the very least unique. Seriously, how many bottles of cologne, ties and cufflinks do men really need or wear? Here are some gift ideas that will suit some if not all of the Dads in your life.
I love a short week! Then the Real Housewives of New York comes on sooner. That makes sense right? I’m watching too much reality TV, obviously. It’s making me dumb (so my husband says). Anyway, this week’s episode opens back at Dorinda’s house in the Berkshires (in case you forgot LuMann and Bethenny were going at it over Skinny Girl). Now stay alert because this week’s episode is like watching a game of ping pong.
The Real Housewives of New York City is the gift that keeps on giving. This week’s episode opens with Dorinda and Jules shopping at the Jonathan Adler store presumably on Madison Ave on the Upper East Side. Dorinda admits she got her secret Santa, Bethenny, a vibrating thigh master. Jules has Ramoaner so obviously the events of the last evening (the scene at the designer party) come up. Jules left to protect her face (?) as she hates loud voices and confrontation. When they see each other tonight, Dorinda’s plan is to just stay away from Ramoner. She has written her off. “Maybe Ramoaner just wants to sleep with John.” (I spit my drink out on that one). NOBODY. WANTS. TO. SLEEP. WITH. JOHN!
Recently I wrote a post about my issues with fertility. I was in my forties when all my baby drama was happening, so when I read an article in the New York Post entitled Mom-to-be Janet Jackson has no idea what she’s in for by Anna Davies it really resonated with me. Come on, every mother on earth thinks Janet is nuts at 50 to have a baby (yet she probably won’t be actually raising the baby like the rest of us schmucks would -most of us aren’t married to billionaires. I digress.) BECAUSE WE KNOW BETTER!
We open this week of The Real Housewives of New York City at Gray Gardens otherwise (I learned this week) referred to as “Chateau (Lady) Morgan.” LuMann is moving in to her own suite on the 5th floor. She has her house in the Hamptons, gave up her West Side apartment and needs to devote all her time to finding the man she is confident she will soon meet. She shows up wearing a Santa coat and Sonja greets her in a fur trimmed jacket. In her house. Apparently she doesn’t turn on the heat. Get the Grey Gardens reference yet? LuMann says, “she’s (Sonja) rudderless without her daughter around. I’m like the man in the relationship with Sonja (you got that LuMann). Without me around I think she’s more stable.” Honey with you she’s unstable!
