That still didn't clarify which trip # to the bathroom this represented for Kim. The cameras were running. The other women were speculating. This was all being filmed. Perhaps Kyle was just trying to hustle Kim out of there for Kim's sake. My post is obviously based on Brandi's blog (for whatever it's worth), which indicated there were innumerable, lengthy trips to the bathroom for Kim that night. She used that as her explanation for being so frustrated with the entire situation and finally calling Kim out.

If I recall correctly, ages ago Brandi blogged about game night and said that Kim had retreated to the bathroom innumerable times for extended periods, which is why Brandi finally called her out on her shit that night. That particular bathroom trip where Kyle tells her to hurry could have simply been that this was already trip #10 into the loo and Kyle knew the other women were out there speculating about what was going on. Better to say "rude" than "they're getting suspicious at your shenanigans tonight, Kim, hustle your ass up and get out there." Granted, Brandi is not the bastion of truth by all means, but since this was regarding game night before she appeared to have anything to lose, I believed her blog in the context with which the events were presented to the viewers at that time.

It's been awhile now, but wasn't Brandi also pretty much iced out at the season premiere, the white party at Kyle's? I seem to recall footage of her sitting off by herself (maybe her stylist was there, too) and everyone else having a great time. I think she even left early because after cordial greetings, the other guests pretty much just ignored her. Am I remembering that correctly? Must be time for another cup of coffee...

Oh, and for these as well!!!!! *heart*

Thank you for these. You have my undying love and gratitude.

I'm sort of hoping maybe her kids did give her a bottom line ultimatum. Not that it matters if they did or not, because, as we saw for ourselves, she clearly made the choice to start back up at least some degree. Hey, totally understandable. When the vile bitch has so many instances of whacked out behavior over so many seasons, it almost requires a Power Point presentation to keep them all straight. After this Amster-Damn debacle, I can't wait for the reunion.

If I heard correctly, didn't Kim say to Yolanda "...If my kids think I'm drinking or using again..." and that they would turn their back on her or however she phrased it. I agree with you. I think her kids are painfully well aware that alcohol isn't their mother's only drug of choice. That wasn't in Hawaii. That was after they returned. Kim and Ken had gotten a hotel room before the big party at SUR. The one where Kim locked herself in the SUR bathroom (after having inappropriate discussions with anyone she could corner) and was doing whatever she was doing and refused to come out. And Ken oddly told her to put whatever she was scrounging around for down and to not put it in her purse. Damn, I wish that camera would have gone in for a closeup of whatever she was palming in her grubby little mitt.

What relapses? Haven't you heard? Little Kimmy has been sober for 3 years now.... *snicker*

Well, it's from Radar OnLine, so who knows how much is factual but, based on Lisa Rinna's tweet last night about asking Kim what Harry's secret is, I'm thinking this might have at least an element of truth to it: http://radaronline.com/exclusives/2015/03/rhobh-reunion-lisa-rinna-confronts-kim-richards-secret-harry-hamlin/

She reminds me of this, right down to the eye makeup:

Oh holy hell.... Remember when she finally claimed she did remember it but just "got nervous" because she doesn't like confrontations? Yeah, last night proved you're quite the wilting little daisy, Kim. Nothing screams "I don't like confrontations" like verbally assaulting every woman at the table over dinner. Kim clearly has no self control and the coping skills of an adolescent. At best. Not with her emotions, not with her drugs, not with her dog, not with her alcohol, and probably not with much of anything else in her life. Kyle should have kept running when she left that restaurant. And never looked back.

If they bring Kim back next season, I want Taylor Armstrong back as well. This time around, I absolutely want to see her go Oklahoma all over Kim's obnoxious ass.

From Lisa Rinna's Twitter just a couple of minutes ago: Maybe someone will give her a heads up that Kim has apparently been out of the Twittersphere for over a week now.

Well, the previews for next week look amazing as well. And it looks like we are indeed going to see Brandi slapping Lisa. I'm glad whatever this bullshit about Harry is will be brought to the forefront at the reunion. Certainly not to give Kim any satisfaction but just so it will stop all of the public speculation about what it could be.

A tad off topic but bringing up the relationship of Kathy and Kim... If I recall correctly, way back in season 1 when Kyle was planning Farrah's graduatoin party, wasn't there a scene with Kyle and Kim working out at the park and, during their break, Kim informed Kyle that Kathy and clan wouldn't be coming to Farrah's party because they had gone off somewhere else instead? I thought it odd even back then. Why the fresh hell didn't Kathy inform Kyle herself? Why share that seemingly important piece of information with Kim, but not bother to tell the hostess, Kyle? If I recall correctly, Kathy sent some godawful hideous plant and a check. Hopefully the check was big enough to make up for the atrocity that was the plant. I may be way off, but even back then I got the feeling Kyle isn't very close to Kathy. At least not nearly as close as Kim seems to be to her. The Richards' sisters dynamics are beyond dysfunctional, of that much I'm convinced.

I just have to highlight Eileen here for a second and one of her comments to Kim: "I don't like you very much at the moment either, I can't find one single thing to like about you." Paraphrased but you know the gist. I think had she kept hammering at Eileen instead of zeroing in on Lisa R, we might have seen some more fireworks fired by Eileen as well. Probably no glass throwing but a verbal take down the likes of which Kim has probably never seen. One of these days Kim is going to fire off that alligator mouth of hers and it's going to overload her hummingbird ass. Somebody's going to grab that finger of hers and try to snap it off.

I desperately wish there were a gigantic heart icon I could put here. Instead, I'll just express my usual... I love you.

Pretty sure they'll figure that out on their own (if they haven't already) when they watch this shitstorm. And her druggie behavior is all over the internet. Rumors of her epic relapse this season were out months ago. If she really cared about her kids abandoning her, her stank ass would go into rehab and get serious about getting sober.

Kim gave them her lack of sobriety as a storyline as soon as she made the decision to take an illicit drug and show up on camera under the influence. No one "made" Kim and her lack of sobriety their storyline. Kim handed all of them a storyline on a silver platter.

I think she threw down the entire glass. The shattering glass was obviously dangerous, but as far as I could tell, she didn't palm any of it to use as a shank on Kim.

Eh, as soon as Kim chose to bring her sobriety into question by taking "a" pain pill and acting like a lunatic in front of those almighty cameras, she chose her own storyline. Plus I would never take Kim's blogs as absolute truths on any subject, the biggest subject of which would be her sobriety...Or obvious lack thereof.

Oh, snap. I'd forgotten about that little potential debacle. Yeah, my opinion of Kim is lower than low at this point. She could have sent Kyle pics of the dresses and, at that point (before the wedding date was moved up), Kyle could have seen them after they returned from vacation. Nasty-assed Kim, vile creature that she's revealed herself to be, probably was hoping Kyle would catch whatever bug they all had in order to ruin her vacation. Sounds petty and juvenile and far-fetched, but it's Kim so I can believe it she'd stoop that low. Porsha remains on RHOA. She wasn't fired over her assault on Kenya.

Still working and haven't had a chance to watch this yet... It's been so long since the last season finale, but if I'm not mistaken, Mike's drinking too much was really becoming front and center in the last few episodes. For some reason Jessica always reminds me of Sammi from Jersey Shore. I can't imagine Jessica's family is particularly happy with that relationship right now.

Such a glorious little season finale. UNTIL MOTHERFUCKING DIRECTV CUT OFF THE LAST 45 SECONDS OR SO AND I MISSED JAX GETTING HIS TRUCK TOWED. Goddammit. Ariana, try as you might, you will never (I say NEVER) reach Stassi's previous greatness in the snotty, uppity, snarking, shade-throwing queen bitch department. Have a few seats, shut the fuck up, and get your nose out of the air before you drowned during the next heavy rain. Well, old Vail kind of came in like a lion and went out like a lamb. Can't say I care whether she returns next season or not. She never did seem to find her groove on the show, not even with trying to mind fuck Jax and Peter simultaneously. Bye Felicia. Apparently Schwartz has been taking lessons from FI Tom on squeezing out tears. Too bad Kristen wasn't there to wipe it from his cheek with her big ol' man hands like she did FI Tom. Now, that would have been an interesting scene. Schwartz, stop being Peter Pan. You've been living with Katie 4 years. Just how drastically can that little piece of paper change things? It's going to be interesting to see which course he chooses. After all, this VPR outrageously low salary is only going to pay so many bills, and I suspect he needs Katie's financial assistance. I suppose he can always go bunk with James in what surely must be his bedroom in his parents' place and not that apartment complex Bravo shows us as his "apartment." That looks like a 12 x 12 bedroom with an adjoining bathroom. And what's behind the curtain? The Wizard? I noticed all of the beverages and other random food items stowed on those shelves directly behind him. Interesting choice of storage area if you have, you know, an actual apartment with a refrigerator and all. And even in the scene where he was auto-tuning Schaena's godawful voice, they were all jammed together next to the bed like sardines in a can. Apartment, my ass. Even in Hollywood, I've never seen an apartment that small. Not an efficiency apartment, not a studio apartment. If that's an apartment, it makes Jax's place look positively spacious by comparison. Either that or he has a bunch of layabout roommates all through the rest of the apartment who won't move their asses for filming and the curtain is to hide the evidence. Funny, I thought Lisa said Kristen could no longer be at SUR socially on top of being fired. Obviously, Kristen was James' date, but I had gotten the opinion not being welcome there socially would include such events as this. I think Lisa knows if Kristen goes the ratings will take a hit. I look to see Kristen back in some capacity next season. I think she should get her bar tending certificate and work side by side with Ariana behind the bar at SUR. And, to the poster who inquired above, why yes, indeedy, Scheana did indeed say Eddie would text his wife during their get-togethers. Save it, Scheana. The mental giant known as Ariana has deemed your advice and rational suggestions not worthy of infiltrating her big old dome of wisdom. I'm sure I'll have further rants after my next viewing. Since freaking DirecTV cut off the last 45 seconds or so, I'm having to record it again later and Shahs of Sunset so I can make sure I catch Jax-O-Lantern's truck getting towed. Oh, and WWHL so I can see the sneak peek of the VPR reunion.

I'm going to venture a guess that this nugget is from our Golden Nugget? Ye gads. A little humility would go a long, long way with this bitch.
