Hair Accessories to Cover the Quarantine Grays (Inspired by Bravo)
As Leslie Jordan of Instagram fame would say: Hello, all you fellow hunker downers. (I know you’re already following him on Instagram. He’s got 3.5 million followers. But if you’re not, you should. His hot takes on quarantining are gold. Pure, Instagram gold.) So, it’s getting to be that time. No, not time to begin…

Lessons on Professionalism from Bravo’s ‘Below Deck’
I have a client in the meetings and events industry and I was submitting a couple of story pitches to them this week, based on a new survey of event planners. One of the key takeaways from the survey is that 59% of planners say a lack of professionalism among the venue management and staff…

Reality TV Time: Southern Charm New Orleans
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: having a cold sucks. Especially in the summer. I’ve been sick for about a week. And it really sucks. It’s also been raining in D.C. for basically a month. Sure, there were a couple of days of modest sunshine, but mostly, it’s been rain: warm, humid,…

Reality TV Time: Below Deck Mediterranean
My travel-buddy-for-life XFE and I just got back from a soccer roadtrip through the South, which was basically 3,000 miles of varying degrees of traffic and highways broken up by stops for soccer (go Tottenham), kitschy tourist locales (I’d never been to South of the Border, but I have now), barhopping at country honkytonks (Nashville…

Eight Reasons We Need a Real Housewives of the Olympic Village
The Olympics are on and they are totally messing with my Bravo viewing. I’m not a fan of the Olympics and not just because of the TV viewing disruption. I just think in this day and age, when there are so many other platforms and international competitions and accompanying viewing options for all of your…

Thanks, eHow
My man-panion-for-life and I were joking around the other day that we should get some of those temporary tattoos for the holidays — but like snarky custom ones. And, being the Vanderpump Rules fans that we are, we knew exactly what we wanted to get. That’s right, we’d like to show up at the parent’s…

Totally Random Search Terms – October Edition
Way back in the day, when thePoeLog was just a tiny little sentence fetus and Google played nicely with WordPress, we had a semi-regular feature called “Totally Random Search Terms that Brought Someone to thePoeLog.” This was inspired by a feature on WordPress that rounded up terms used in search engines like Yahoo, Google and…

The Lashes May Be Mink, But the Faux Fur Drama Was Flying on Vanderpump Rules
There was some sort of really big thing going down here in Washington D.C. last night. Actually, it was a national event, full of backstabbing and upsets. It included a cast of familiar, soul-less characters who act like friends one minute, only to turn around and do something shady the next. There was even a…

Reality TV Time: Euros of Hollywood
During the last year that this blog has been dormant (almost one year to the day!), I’ve been on some fabulous trips that I have just been dying to talk/write about. I can’t tell you, gentle reader, how many times I’ve been witness to something and thought: Man, this would be great for the blog.…

Reality TV Time: Drama on Board – Bravo’s ‘Below Deck’ and Soccer
My main sleeping buddy XFE (Petunia is merely backup) is back from his father-son golfing trip, and I’m thrilled. Finally, someone to cook for me and make me laugh. Petunia is useless in the kitchen and her jokes are pretty lame. For example: What did the calico say to the bowl of food? Crunch. I…
