Someone is Going to Have to Explain to Me How This Works

The Girls Next Door are taking another turn.  First Holly Madison, #1 GF of the Hef, broke up with--Hef, the group, I don't know--in Oct.  Now another of TGND, Kendra, is leaving Hef because she is engaged to one of the players on the Philadelphia Eagles football team.  (My guess is that young man got a lot of high-5's from his teammates for this one.)

Someone needs to explain this to me.  Perhaps I am just too "conventional" but I don't understand how she can be living in a four-some with an elderly porn mogul and two other Playmates and be dating--apparently seriously--at the same time.  For one thing, how does she find the time?  For another, when one is part of a harem, how does one decide that she has found the love of her life outside of the group?  How does she then tell that rest of the "relationship"?  I am just not up on harem etiquette.  Finally, did this plural relationship not bother the future groom?  (OK, I get the whole multiple girl fantasy thing.  However, my best guess is that, for most men at least, that fantasy does not also include an old man in a smoking jacket.)

Let me take a moment to calm the fears of all of you worrying how Hef is doing with all of this. Apparently the big man (thanks to Viagra, but I digress) is happy for the couple--and will be walking Kendra down the isle in what Hef describes as "a very special ceremony" at the Playboy mansion. (Let's also note, Kendra's father is still around.  I saw him in an episode of TGND.  No walk down the aisle for him?)  My guess is that in this instance "special" means "circus-like" and "porn-freakish".  Will Holly and Bridget be bridesmaides?  What will they wear/not wear?  So many questions!

How is everyone in this scenario OK with this?  For one thing, I am guessing that the mother of the groom may not be psyched about this on many levels.  "Hi Bernice.  Please meet my future daughter-in-law--and current Girl Next Door--and her former girlfriends and porn Sugar Daddy." Mmmmmmm--no.  Not going to be bringing that up at the next Monday bridge game with the ladies from church.

Hef, I am sure, is fine because he has two 19 year old twins--Karissa and Kristen--living with him now. In a warped way, I think that Holly should feel a little pride in the fact that it took two women to replace her.  (Not a feminist thing to say, I know, but there is not much about this that is actually positive for the sisterhood.)  I worry about Bridget.  (Yes, I am actually seriously concerned for her.  Welcome to me blurring reality with reality TV.)  Hef has brought in newer models.  Bridget is the oldest woman in the group--though does not look it.  She and I are the same age.  I try not to think about that because it makes me feel bad.  Anyway, I just don't know how the hierarchy will break out. 

Damn, I need to get cable.
