The Real Housewives of Atlanta: Precious Pocketbook

“I’m not ashamed at all about dating a married man. It’s just a legal thing. It’s just a piece of paper.” – Kim Zolciak

Ladies, ladies, ladies, when will you learn that arguing in public for all to see isn’t the best way to solve things? (Says the girl who just had it out with someone over Twitter) (there’s a first and only time for everything) (ahem).

Also when will Sheree be surgically removed from her high horse? Then again I speak of women who have given their blood, sweat, tears and dirty laundry for success that all the world can see. So if they don’t care then I shouldn’t care, right? Right.

WTF:

5) I do not have a great body so I probably wouldn’t show my body on national television. Cori has some balls of steel under that teeny tiny bikini.

4) The beginning stages of Sheree’s party planning process (say that three times fast) was far more interesting than the actual party.

This makes me want to yell out “WHO’S GONNA CHECK ME, BOO?” and/or “YO MAMA’S A BITCH” because it’s always sunny in Atlanta and 1998.

3) Denene!

I met Denene after my ‘Marketing and Women of Color’ room at BlogHer. I will also be speaking at a conference where she will also be speaking which begs one to figure out how a real life author and I – the Twitter fighter – ended up speaking at a conference. I am not sure. But seeing as how this conference will be held in Atlanta there will be stalking involved and fondling of my telephoto lens because I’m sure it will come in handy when traipsing through Buckhead. I wonder if Denene can be bribed to tell me all about NeNe and the show. Do you think chocolate will work? Wine?

2) Kandi and Lisa do a performance of The Pocketbook Monologues. Legend has it – well ‘legend’ if you are the writer/director – that black women call the “triangle between their thighs” their ‘Pocketbook’. I have no clue whether or not this is true for if I were to discuss anything below the waist with my aunts or mother I’m sure that they would take to their bed. The writer/director was correct in that black people really don’t talk about sex all that often. I’m supposed to be a Scorpio! It makes it hard for me to live out my sign to the fullest.

Also poor Lisa who just wants to refer to it as her twat. I like how she throws in the arms for extra oomph.

After the performance Dwight told Kandi that the more he spends time with her and gets to know her the more he falls in love with her. I agree. How can you not fall in love with this?

She’s precious.

1) “I’m not ashamed at all about dating a married man. It’s just a legal thing. It’s just a piece of paper”

Do you think this is how Kim feels about marriage on the whole or just Big Poppa’s marriage? I pray it’s the latter. In fact I watched over and over again and I would like to give her the benefit of the doubt. Then in less than 5 seconds she says that her daughters have this great life and she wants to support them and Popppa can help. Then it’s suddenly “…but it’s not about the money”. Well clearly some of it has to do with the money since 20 minutes later she was buying jewelry and announcing that $32,000 for a gold necklace isn’t that much.

The rest of the global economy is in a recession and Kim has somehow managed to avoid this. How do you do it, Kim?
