Survivor Redemption Island: Is Phillip STILL the Red-headed Stepchild??

Oh no, what is it with Phillip and his obsession that being a 'red-headed stepchild' is the worst thing in the world??  I feel soo sorry for all the red-headed stepchildren out there, all sad because of the Phillip-judgement... don't worry kids, you're fine, it's Phillip who is in trouble, out there on Survivor Island... and as much of a trainwreck Phillip is, he is highly, highly entertaining, and not just because of his droopy drawers, neither! haha!  I loove when he goes off in front of the camera, and directly to the girls who clearly love Rob, and not Phillip... a little jealousy, perhaps?? But I laughed soo hard when Phillip was so excited about going over to watch the 'battle' on Redemption Island, and Boston Rob says he had to go, too, to babysit his ass... hilarious! Now that's my kind of TV! lol! 

Ah, well.  Phillip is still there, and angry little Stephanie is gone.. I think Matt really does have God on his side! lol!  I really like Matt, now, so I hope he just keeps winning on Redemption Island, so he can really get back in the game.  Surita was an odd duck, not really having much of a response for being voted out to Redemption Island... aren't you supposed to go out fighting??  Do not go gentle into that good night, and all that? And I really like the comraderie between Boston Rob and Grant... it looks like they'll become lifelong friends (but you can never speak too soon in the game of Survivor, right?? lol!).  Will be very interesting, next week, when the two teams merge, and everyone gets a new buff... always exciting to see who connects with each other, especially David and Phillip, the 'flippers'. Like little dolphins! haha!

It was a fun TV night for us, tonight, since Survivor is always soo much fun to watch, and then we watched this crazy new show on MTV, Wedding Wars. If you like Crazy, Wedding Wars if for you! The thing I love about Wedding Wars is they did not bother to waste any time trying to find any good looking people... hilarious! I say, that's lucky they all found each other, and they are actually getting married, something that doesn't happen nearly as readily as it used to, back in the day... (oh, am I only referencing my own life, now?? haha! I used to get sooo many marriage proposals, and now just finding someone you want to date, or spend more than a little tiny amount of time with... tricky!! haha!)  I love the deadpan Hostess... I have a sneaking suspicion she might, uh, know someone, in the Industry, to have snagged that sweet hosting gig! lol!  I'm not sure why I love the really terrible hosts, but I do... and I like the really good looking ones, too (like Jeff Probst! haha!)  See you soon, Ailsa xox!

The Real Housewives of Orange County: Jesus Lane, Just follow the signs to the O.C., then go all the way down the road to the Far, Far Right... lol!

So THAT'S how you get to Jesus Lane!!  Who knew it still existed??  I thought they bulldozed that in the '50's, what with wives being entirely subservient to their husbands... but it's alive and well in The O.C. Really, I am amazed that they don't sell T-shirts with two giant oranges in the front, Hooters Style, for all the women to wear in Orange County... haha!  I laugh, because the chances are extremely high that I would not only WEAR a T-shirt with oranges on the front of it, but I would want one with the 'scratch 'n sniff' feature, AND I would want to manufacture and sell them! lol!  What can I say, I'm a business girl at heart... and I love to wear great T-shirts! hahaha!

Soo many great stories on The Housewives of Orange County, tonight... man, we love that show, and I particularly love Andy Cohen, and his After the Show, as well... and I loove that Andy Cohen loves Mama Elsa (and not only because it's soo much fun to hear a version of my name -- Ailsa/Elsa -- on National TV.  Very rare. So extra fun for me!  But here's the main difference between me and Mama Elsa on The Housewives of Miami... well, a few little differences... I don't have any surgery (does the episiotomy count?? hahaha!  TMI?? haha!), I'm a little younger, and I firmly believe that Andy Cohen will definitely find love, and I believe he will find love, this year!!  WooHoo!! (Oooh, I hope I do, too!  One can always hope, am I right?? lol!)  But we can't wait for Tuesdays Housewives of Miami, because I am obsessed with looking at the girls (ages questionable! lol!) to see if I can figure out exactly what work they've had done... I am endlessly fascinated by that, for whatever reason.  I think I am secretly measuring myself up against them!! hahaha!

Oh, and speaking of measuring yourself up against these Orange County Housewives, what's the deal with the giant fake boobs??  What passage in the Bible do they say to do that, and thou shalt find a rich husband?? hahaha!  Hilariously enough, back when I was married, I wrote a tongue-in-cheek article about how to marry rich (or at least find a partner who can handle their money... and you know what else I say about a man and his money -- if he's tight with his money, he'll be tight with his love, so watch out, ladies, you don't want either one of those traits... waaay too annoying. Oh, and that reminds me, looks like Tamra's new 'boyfriend' (hilarious to me when anyone past high school still refer to their partner as a 'boyfriend' or 'girlfriend'... grow up, already... say lover, or something... lol!! haha!  (Okay, I guess that little joke is just for me, 'cause I'm really laughing, now...! haha!)  Okay, I sorry, I digress, yet again... when Eddie is extra-amorous at the restaurant, with lots of PDA, and then quickly downs that entire glass o' wine before he gets in the tub with Tamra... well, let's just say, I think he picked up the bill at the restaurant, too!  He didn't appear tight with his money, and definitely not tight with his love! hahaha!

So how long will 'Princess' Gretchen stay with old fatty, Slade?? haha!  Man, how many times did she call him a fatty?? Hilarious!  You NEVER hear a man called out for his weight, so this was highly entertaining for me, and I wonder how much he gets on HER for her weight, or whatever other myriad of issues she might have?  I loved that her gay guy friends got the truth about their sex life, completely different fromt the 'sex god' stories she was telling the girls... sooo funny.  They love to one-up the other, those crazy goils... I wonder who really wins?? 

Okay, that's enough OC for one night... hey, was it just me, or is the OC overly white??  Where's everybody else??  It's California, US, sooo, where's everybody else, me wonders??  Hmm... does not seem right... well, go make up some stories to tell your own friends (two different versions, depending on level of truth and friendship...!) See you soon, Ailsa xox

The Bachelor: Emily Loves Brad Womack?? Hmmm...Engaged or Not Engaged, That Is The Question...

What??  The Bachelor may or may not be engaged??  Say it ain't so... so Brad Womack finally chose Emily (I called it, I called it... not gloatingly, though, since, by the end, I was secretly hoping he would choose Chantal, since she clearly would have bent over backwards for him, and he's the kind of guy who would demand that...).  But Emily is suuuch a beautiful girl, and she had a little inkling about his temper during their last 'date' before he proposed to her, when she was asking him some pretty basic questions about parenting, and he got so agitated, he had to mop his whole head and neck with a towel (hilarious!! haha!)... poor Brad.  It ain't easy to answer questions you haven't prepared for... so now on the After the Final Rose show, Emily appears without her engagement ring on (a spectacular engagement ring, too... although I liked the other two engagement rings better, frankly! lol!), and at the end, Brad brings the ring out of his pocket, says he's had it 'resized', and says, 'here's your ring back'... so what does that mean?  Emily gave it back in the middle of a fight?  He asked for it back after a fight?  Do you get to ask for an engagement ring back??  Hmmm... these are the important questions! lol! Well, we'll see if there's a wedding... seems highly doubtful... maybe Chantal will win out in the end!  A girl can always hope! haha!
