I try to keep in mind that we see a lot of these people on the worse day of their lives, sometimes!
Even though she irritated the shit out of me last week with the camel milking meltdown, I can easily see myself doing something similar under the same circumstances (although I really hope I'd have it together enough to remember to remain calm around the animal) and I tried to cut her some slack. And they were definitely more bearable this last ep. Although I still loathe the "Baby? Baby, baby baby. Baby!" thing.
Loving Kynt (which, I have to say, i pronounce as 'cunt' in my head) and Vixen despite their stupid names.
I can't believe I started to like Lorena and then she and Jason got eliminated. It's almost Minearesque. Did the blondes really not know that they were an hour ahead of them?
I was very worried about TK and Rachel because I like them.
Project Runway: OMG, Carmen and Christian totally brought out the worst in each other. They each should have been working with somebody NOT totally fixated on the 80s. And that cave woman outfit was just tragic. Meanwhile, SJP was an excellent guest judge: knowledgable, kind and articulate. They should have her back.
I love Kynt and Vixen tool (Does Vixen's name have more other vowels in it?)
Oh, does the Ethiopian sister who's name I can't remember have some kind of real issue with the physical tasks and running? Or was that her brother being a dick about her being a girl?
I think he was being an asshat big brother.
Oh, in crazy Stunt-casting news: Heidi Klum is going to be on HIMYM tonight. I'm sure you've seen the ads.
I did like how Carmen & Christian worked together though, even if the outcome was kind of tragic.
I squeeled almost as loudly as the contestants with the SJP reveal. And she seemed so genuinely into it and sad that someone had to be eliminated.
I thought Vixen had a yk instead of the x but now it looks wrong.
Vyxsin, I think.

She said she has a "gimpy leg," didn't she? I think he said she has "physical limitations," and she laughed and was like, "Limitations? I run slow as shit with this gimpy leg!" Or something.

Yeah, she was great. But apparently traumatized by the whole judging thing. According to the interview on Andy Cohen's blog.

I'm not surprised. She looked upset at the final judging.
