RHOA (S2 E1):What Ever Happened To Community Service?!?!?

Thursday was the premeire of Season 2 of the Real Housewives of Altanta & it was GREAT!!! This season is gonna be sooooo much better thatn the 1st. I do miss Deshawn though, but NeNe will be enough for me for now.

First thing that happened was NeNe moved into a new home, and Dwight came over to "decorate". They went through their usual antics, which included Dwight seductively popping the cork of a champagne bottle. These two will have me rolling all season...I can see it now & I bet you he gets a spin-off by the end of it.

Kim goes to see her psychic, Rose, and I immedaitely check out becasue she is so uninteresting. Apparently, she & "Big Papa" have split up (if they were ever together in the 1st place) & she has nothing better to do but talk about NeNe & Lisa, who both almost beat her ass @ last season's reunion. Anyways, Rose tells her that she is going to starting some business venture to make her own money, as in starting a wig line &, dare I say it, SINGING!

Sheree moves into a new home as well, apparently after her old one was forclosed because her ex-husband did not pay her morgage like he is supposed to. But her divorce is final & she starts throwing an "independence party" for herself. How low is your self-esteem when you have to throw all these parties for yourself for no reason??? However, she hires a party-planner named Anthony to iron out the details.

We finally meet Kandi, the Grammy-winnning singer/songwriter from Xscape, who I think is only on the show because her Tiny has a show, but that's just my opinion. She is working a a few things, like a solo album & getting married to a man with 6 KIDS!!!! I think that it is gonna take me a few episodes to get used to her.

Later in the episode, the ladies go to Niecy Nash's birthday party and discuss Kim's gossiping about them (saying that NeNe's husband, Greg, was broke, & saying Lisa had a criminal record). Kim leaves the party early, probably to keep from being confronted by the rest of the cast.

In order to start her wig line, Kim goes to beauty school for a day to learn about hair. She becomes bored easily:

“Thirty seconds into it, I’m already on another planet. I’m already thinking what I’m eating for lunch and what I’m doing for dinner. Classrooms are terrible.”

...& she wonders why no one takes her seriously. Her line is gonna be the She by Sheree of wig lines (How do you have a clothing line but know nothing about fabrics???).

NeNe agrees to meet with Sheree to "mend fences" after all that they have been through. They reconcile (for now) & Sheree even says that she appreciates NeNe for being there for her when she needed. Kandi also talks to her daughter, Riley, about the changes that will come with her marriage to A.J. & she is not cool with the idea of having 6 brand new brothers & sisters (I don't blame her).

At the end of the episode, Sheree has an altercation with her party planner, Anthony, after he is reluctant to take her phone calls or suggestions. I will take Sheree's side in this one, because she is the client & is paying him (with what money???) to plan her party & she should have imput on every decision. When she gets to his office & meets with him, the converstion quickly turns into confrontation, as Anthony is rude & claims that she should just let him do his job. They exchange words which include a "yo mama" (who does that anymore???) from Anthony, & as far as I am concerned, he just committed career suicide because no one is gonna want to hire him if he is throwing out insults like that.

Next week on RHOA: Sheree & NeNe confront Kim, & that (fake) friendship seems to be out the door.
