Kim got 3 days with her mom because SO received a special excursion rate that included liability insurance for NBC in case Kim did bodily harm to her mom.

Jodi gets a week to 10 days at a singles' vacation spot to meet the man of her dreams -- now let's face it Jodi may need more than the alloted 10 days.

Yeah Mazzy, but what about the bodily harm Jodi could do in ten days to the man of her dreams .... ? :blush: ;)

Based on what she said to the "sex therapist" - who may or may not have written a book or have a little homegrown website somewhere - it was not entirely clear which part(s) of the bodily harm Jodi enjoys. She always says she's a "giver", so you can decide for yourself what that means, to...ummmmm...put it as delicately as possible.

You never know. Jodi lives in a hub city, and maybe they hooked up a really great deal on the cruise to Turks and Caicos. Commuter flights to FL ports where the cruises depart are often dead cheap. The idea of spending my vacation stuck at sea with several hundred horny people I don't know would have me selling a ticket on ebay, but who knows? Jodi just might totally dig it. And, it gives her a full week to either work out her dating skills, or create a whole new level of unfortunate drama in her life. Either way. I get their point, but this city is just crawling with men. The trick is more in finding the right one than in simply finding one. You can do that at most any gas station in town.

And that's my favorite of your qualities Serena, your delicacy! It was so subtle I almost missed it.

I agree that she can find a man anyplace. Maybe the trip it is like the Dork-A-Thon, practicing those flirtation and dating skills in a venue in which it really doesn't matter, getting her feet wet, as it were.

Jodi is as sweet as the ice cream I had earlier today, but the honest truth of the matter is....no amount of makeup, hair styling, outfits, and weight loss could ever make that woman physically attractive to the masses.

Hmm-- you know, I thought Jodi looked amazing. She shined, and not from that shiny little-girl top. She had am amazing glow that came from within. She has a dazzling smile, and she just looked so happy. And to me, THAT is true beauty. Not eyebrows, not makeup, not body size, not features, etc. I think she's a beautiful woman because she's confident, empowered, honest, and committed to making herself and her life better and better. I'm really happy for her, and I think she looked wonderful. Way to go, Jodi !!

It didn't last long. Toadie was back at Sommer's grad.

Yep, in fact Lisa's daughter spoke at her graduation. There have been several family members in attendance at graduations.

Me too - I thought she looked great.

or at least better. How come every time they tried to change her hairstyle, the next time you would see her she would be back to those ringlets?
