ROSE ON S1: EPISODE 9
DINAHHHHH!!!!!! Here we are. My last blog for our last episode and boy was it a doozie :) Dinah Shore has finally arrived. With all of the ups and downs Nat and I have recently experienced, you would think I would’ve known better and maybe sit out this year’s Dinah….NOT!
Every year my friends and I rent a sick house with all of the amenities. We never stay at hotels. This gives...

WHITNEY ON S1: EPISODE 9
What a way to go out….DINAH SHORE!!!! For anyone who has never attended this weekend of lesbian debauchery, I HIGHLY suggest it, at least once. Not only is it full of great music, parties, and poolside antics, but it provides a vehicle for an entire weekend where you can completely be yourself and feel comfortable no matter where in the world you come from. This was kind of a test in a way...

JILL ON S1: EPISODE 9
Wow…final episode, final blog…final parting thoughts on what has turned into one of wildest journeys I’ve ever been on. Where to even begin… It’s probably best to address my mom’s surprise visit first and foremost, because till this day (three months later), I’m still in disbelief over her arrival. If my face didn’t paint an accurate enough picture of my shock, allow me to...

Tracy On S1: Episode 9
Well, we’ve come full circle! First of all, thank you for letting us share our laughter and tears with you for the past nine weeks. It’s been an extremely cathartic experience, and I hope that there is somebody out there who has learned from all of our ups and downs. We’ve all grown from this process and if anything, hope that the message of EQUALITY resonates louder than all. On a side...

NIKKI ON S1: EPISODE 9
It’s my last blog of the series, and how can I thank you enough for spending nine painful wedding planning weeks with my hair. LOL! I truly wish that you could have had more of a glimpse into our lives beyond our upcoming nuptials, but there’s only an hour to tell the stories of six women and as such, this is our story that was told.
Dinah Shore… Oh boy… Did I get myself in...

JILL ON S1: EPISODE 8
Goooooing to Malibu and we’re gonna get maa-aa-aarried…
Finally! Signed, sealed and delivered. I have to say it was a bit of an exhausting process trying to research other venues. We saw, at most, two other homes, looked at a local hotel and reviewed a number of properties online…and nothing compared to the magnificence of that very first home.
I appreciate that Nik gave me...

ROSE ON S1: EPISODE 8
WHY, OH WHY DID I GO TO ANGEL??? UGH!!
I keep asking myself that question and have major regrets. Going through my grandmothers illness, not getting along with my mother, and Natalie and I not being on the same page just sent me down the wrong path. Angel and I had a very turbulent relationship, and I don’t know why I sought “solace” — but that goes to show you the...

WHITNEY ON S1: EPISODE 8
Well, here’s the aftermath of the mayhem… and it’s manifested itself into a sun-baked concoction of lube, cream corn, and grits….AWESOME! See, what you don’t know is that I actually went away for work for almost a week, leaving the kiddy pool to cook in the hot LA sun. Wow, is all I can say regarding the aroma that permeated from that gooey mess. The bag literally weighed about 60lbs each, and...

TRACY ON S1: EPISODE 8
Coming Out. Again, and again, and again….
There are several stages or steps to the coming-out process, and everyone’s experience and journey is unique. However, the one thing we all have in common is that we’re always going to have to share our secret with someone at some point in our lives….parents, coworkers, friends…..but it will always start with coming-out and being true to yourself.

NIKKI ON S1: EPISODE 8
Episode 8 out of 9. You know what that means? Only one more episode left of my BAD HAIR in the opening sequence! Whew! This was one long season of vanity torture.
Crying in the bedroom. Yeah, it happens, joyfully. Unless of course if you are having that last break up sex moment… Oh the flooding tears…. but I digress…
Well, Jill and I are back again talking about...

Top Ten Notable Thoughts About Episode 107

Whitney on Episode 7
Wowwwww….what a fun one , eh?!
Paintball is one of the best things EVERRRR!! When we showed up at the range we were in fact a motley crew. Barely any of the members of my team had even played paintball before and most of them were more concerned with looking fashionable than protecting their bodies from high-speed paint-filled balls. Rose showed up rolling hard, decked out in legit paintball...

Rose on Episode 7
This was one of the toughest times I have ever had to go through in my life. Nat and I had so much tension with not spending time together. She just quit her job. Her mother was ill, and then I get the news that my grandmother was in the hospital. My grandma has NEVER been hospitalized, so when I heard the news it hit me like a Mack truck. I literally had to sit down, process, and make sense of...
