    Much like the backup microwave I think it's to avoid the monstrous chore of having to pick up an object (cup of tea or moose) and move it to another location. I am basing this on all the busy bee effort she put in to informing us of her plans with a house icon pointing to Morty and a car icon pointing to Muffin on the Snap.

    I had to laugh over the head shop sticker because I mentioned on the old board that OCM looks like the kind of dude who shops at head shops for his jewelry. I'm calling it right now that when OCM pops the question, he'll do it with a pewter yin yang symbol ring.

    Alas for our fair Kisha, I don't see OCM putting a ring on it, if you will. I think he enjoyed playing hookey from mom and dad and his kid at Kisha's grown-up house, smoking up, and eating deli trays and Dew on Snott's dime, but he's just not that into her (Kisha says SHE would have done more in her latest video arond 21:00 because he is so sessy but instead they are working on their friendship). As repulsive as he is, I bet OCM could land some scrawny, mini skirt wearing troubled 20-something who loves his drug connections.

    I think pre-partum Jen snottily declaring her house wouldn't look like a toy store is right up there with "I don't eat sugar" and "I'm not an impulse shopper."

    This is the fundamental problem with 'sharing' though. Anyone can spend their money on anything they like - it's called capitalism. Lots of people have spent money in far stupider ways than Jen. The difference is when you broadcast it to people and say 'Look I got this bracelet, gosh it was $600, but I wanted it for ages and I got it because I finished a workout programme so I deserve it.' If someone thinks that sharing something like that isn't going to get mixed opinions then they truly are stupid. Some people will say 'Yay for you' others will say '$600?!!!!' To most people that is a LOT of money. To Jen it is change she found down the back of the couch. But the point is that sharing is ASKING for a response. And those responses won't always be what you want.

    That's the funny thing about Jen. There's something somewhat elusive that makes her so awful. I actually totally get her "rewarding" herself with the bracelet even though the exercise itself was a reward. I recently promised myself a LaMer powder when I finished a big professional development project, that was in itself a reward. $600 to Jen is not a lot of money at all and it should be somewhat admirable that she thought about whether to spend that kind of money on what she recognizes as costume jewelry. To me, it should be admirable that someone makes an informed decision to treat themselves to an easily afforded indulgence after reaching a goal, rather than just spending money like a moron to upload their arm candy to Instagram and acting just because it has an H in it,
    it's a thing of quality (witness the tragic TiffanyD). So what is it that makes Jen so loathsome?

    How I wish she were still vlogging! The family dynamic has changed hugely so the first post partum (barf) trip to Utah is going to be so telling. Before, I think Jen, while wanting to be a Melissa, still felt a little superior to Emily. Emily is the frumpy older sister while Jen was first the adorable, petite, athletic new daughter in law in the Ross clan. Then Jen enjoyed a little bit of "fame" with her YouTube channel showcasing her fashion, makeup, and organization "skills" while Emily was the even frumpier SAHM. Suddenly, Jen is now also a mama with a child almost identical in age to Emily's youngest and, instead of being treated like a special snowflake, she's being shown up by the frump who seems to effortlessly manage double the workload Jen is trying to present as martyr levels of effort and dedication.

    This has been the best Jen day in AGES! Rewarding herself with obscenely overpriced items. Classic Jen demonstrating enough self awareness of the stupidity of her own actions to go into a long winded justification of said stupidity. A few hours later nostril flaring and muffin hurling. Stay with us, 2012 Jen! We've missed you so.

    I also just love that she's literally got her latest trophy, Charlotte's
    name hanging around her neck like her disney princess race medals.

    Y'all! I just realized TWO! of our heroines, Jen and Kisha, are simultaneously suffering from grievous ankle injuries! Now, granted, Jen got hers from too much PIIT in her home gym and Kisha tripped while helping move her stuff out ahead of an eviction - and Kisha went to the ER for piles of pain pills and Jen is using her patented snowflake ice therapy - so there are some teeny differences. However, Kisha managed to drag herself to a week of new employee training at the Waffle House, so Jen better bring her A-game to the loftice ladder at the Crow Mansion. Ankle Wars at the Gossip Bakery Summer 2016, people!!

    Aweso, who else is dying to know what the relationship "deal-breakers" Kisha and OCM discussed were?? (20:50)

    They'd have the same ones! Won't make me get a job, won't insist I raise my own kids, won't kill my buzz with demands to stop doing drugs, and can't hate owls.

    Argh! I just watched the Ankle Injury Snap Saga. Okay. Jen. I am not a doctor, but contrary to your own beliefs, you are not one either. However I have existed outside the walls of a Chicagoland McMansion for the past decades so I feel qualified to give you some life advice:
    For once, you are a special snowflake! You really do appear to susceptible to high impact exercise. Custom orthodics and ice are not going to fix that, you nitwit. Those are attempts prevent and minimize impact-related distress as much as possible in circumstances where impact cannot be avoided. You are a suburban housewife/MAMA - not a professional athlete or a gainfully employed member of society who works on her feet all day long. A gazillion studies have shown that speed walking is just as effective, if not better for you, than running. There a billion low impact altenatives to PIIT. Now, granted they don't have the same cachet and you wouldn't be able to relate to the 20somethings who have no job other than to chisel their abs and make YouTube videos of their work outs -- and you wouldn't be able to spend extra me time communing with your special snowflake body during your post-workout ice rituals, so there's that...

    So glad to be back! I've missed you!!

    Sooo. what have I missed? I see Special K locked down her IG. Aweso, I'm confused about the latest on Snott. Do we have confirmation that Kisha was making up the whole "Snott says he bluffed and lost" thing? Or are we all just assuming shes lying about that? OR, is he just trying to play mind games with her? So many questions!

    I toadilly believe Snott said the "bluffed and lost" thing - it sounds exactly like the kind of bullsh*t used car salesman type of thing he'd say. It's manipulative and ultra cheesy. He also toadilly didn't mean it - "bluffing and losing" implies that he lost her; she'd go back to him in a minute and he knows it. She'd definitely continue to gleefully relive her high school dayz with OCM in the al fresco crack cave over the romantic fires of a lit joint while Snott was at work, but she knows she'll never see a paycheck like that again.

    I love how "summer Sunday afternoons" are just a romantic concept to Jen, gleaned no doubt from poetry, novels, and Instagram. Sunday afternoon is the same as EVERY OTHER afternoon when you've literally never had an adult job.

    I am trying to wrap my head around the idea of Kisha being a manager. Dealing with customers - "oh, your waffle is code? My cousin cooked that waffle, a*shoe! The only thing code around here is your a*s when I toss it outside!" Cash management - she has no money, tons of debts, a drug habit, and no morals. Pretty sure the till will NEVER balance. Personnel management - I just can't. "Your kid is sick? Give it some garage pills and get in to work, a*shoe!"

    Fortunately, like most things Kisha is habby habby habby about (being a cheer mom, hiking, moving to Indiana), I'm sure her love affair with Chateau du Waffle will end before she gets anywhere near a clean head of hair for her manager drug test - I'm predicting epic hair-pulling, syrup-dumping cat fight with a cousin in which the sheriff gets called.
