SGM, We have a project!

There is a rumor going around that Bravo is casting a Real Housewives series for Houston. I'm a housewife in Houston! Well, at least as much as any of those other broads. So this is what I'm going to wear to the audition -- tell me what you think:

Houston Barbie by Mamacita

Items in this set:
Cotton Twill Blazer, $34
Red Bow Pocket Skirt, 14 GBP
The less work you have to do, the more professional you have to look, of course.

Yolanda 120 patent pump, $660
Just your basic errand-running shoes. Nothing too high.

18K White Gold & Diamond Extra Large Hoops, $4,730
Houston Barbie will describe these as "simple, elegant."

1/2ct Diamond Cross Pendant | Overstock.com, $390
Jesus comes first in my life. Jesus and shiny things.

It goes without saying: "simple, elegant" French manicure, Big Sexy Hair hairspray, and an "elegant" little trowel for putting on your makeup.

It's modeled after my favorite Houston Barbie, Victoria Osteen. [Just because you're a Christian leader doesn't mean you can't smack a bitch flight attendant, amirite?]

    Damn! You are so gonna win this contest! You are a REAL housewife, you are a Houstonian, and YES--you can't go wrong using the Bitchtoria Osteen playbook...Ever.
    Ok- I must confess I don't know what this show is. Is it a reality show? Will Papi be on it to? Do we need to worry about his angle/attire etc? What about the kids?
    Might want to stock up on some teeth whitener for the whole family.

    Do they still have the Petroleum club in Houston? Might be a good place to do some research...and by "research" I mean drinking...

    Mer, you are too cute. Yes, it's a reality show. Go here for comprehensive analysis.

    Don't know if the Petroleum Club is still around ... I've certainly never been invited ;-)

    I love you.

    And also? You'll need to lose about 50 IQ points to be on this show.

    Mamacita, I went to the website you linked to and this show doesn't look very wholesome...If you want to be on it, might want to enroll in a middle school undercover for the last week of school.

    This made me giggle so hard I had to catch my breath! Love it! And I agree with SGM, seriously, at least 50 IQ points. And remember to come up with a catchphrase, they love those!

    Sister! Have I got a deal for you!! I can arrange it for you to lose those 50 IQ points AND hang out at a 3 star Junior High while you do it! Just ask me for details!

The Bikini Wax: An Internal Dialogue

God, this is horrifying. I wonder if she's as embarrassed as I am. OW! Ow MOTHERFUCKER! Okay, this hurts less than childbirth, but only because it doesn't last as long. What is she saying? I wish I spoke Vietnamese. I think I outweigh the entire staff combined. Dude, where is she going? They need a picture on this ceiling. They would probably put up a picture of Hannah Montana. I will not think about Miley Cyrus. I will not think about Miley Cyrus. Hey, I bet my nails are dry. I wonder if the liquor store next door sells ice. Next time I'm paying more for a place with numbing cream. Which is worse -- being her or being me? OW. Me. At times like this it's good to have some poetry memorized. 'Twas brillig and the ... the ... Dammit. HOW BIG IS MY VAGINA? She could have mowed the back 40 by now. God, how come nobody told me this shit was growing halfway down my leg? Did I water the clematis last night? Next time: vodka first. Next time: Vicodin first.

Reading/ Watching/ Listening

 Reading: The Rules of Civility by Amor Towles. I didn't like it nearly as much as A Gentleman in Moscow . In fact, I liked it only barely enough to keep reading. Watching: Poker Face , on Peacock. Papi and I have enjoyed watching this, one episode at a time, and not every day. It's a little formulaic, but the sets and the guest stars are fun. I like that it changes scenery every episode. Listening to: The Beatles Channel, Sirius XM. Ever since watching Get Back , the Beatles documentary, I've enjoyed listening to them with new ears.

Be Awesome for Halloween

You are a total hoser if you don’t dress up for Halloween. Granted, I haven’t dressed up in a few years, but I am about to change that this year. I have an idea … but it’s a surprise! Actually, I have lots of Halloween ideas. I’ve put together a few sample ideas for some of my favorite bloggers. If you find yourself in need of inspiration, send me a link to your blog, or just describe what you’re doing on Halloween night, and I’ll give you a hand. Emily and Rob : Alice and Ralph Kramden ! Soletrain : ODB . Wouldn’t you pay money to see Uncle John wearing a grill? Anyway, I’m sure he already has the outfit. He just needs to accessorize with a 40. Bunny Tomerlin : Goth princess . Because I bet she’s never even worn PVC. (Polyvore set via Haley ) Grosgrain Garage : preppy Jesus – Bonnanos, tunic with gingham trim and a ribbon belt, pearls worn as a thorny crown Megan: Now that she's succumbed to making wreaths , Mega...
