I take it day by day and…its a struggle.
Its just that this isSonjaso pretty much everything is simultaneously desperately sad and hopelessly hilarious.

DORINDA: Lady Dorinda of the Berkshires however, is sporting something new: a complete disdain for Luann.

BETHENNY: As for whats going on with Bethenny?
Three weeks before filming began, Bethennys on-again-off-again boyfriend Dennis died of an overdose.
