Two things worth noting happened during this, the culmination of 'Tamra's OC Wedding'. The first, Tamra finally got her vagina and butt-hole waxed. It was like a horror movie...for the two male friends she forced into the waxing stall with her. No, but seriously. One of her dudes walked in and actually started screaming and clawing at his eyes while bellowing, "I SAW YOUR MUSSEL!" Classy.

The second and perhaps more pertinent event of this week's episode? Tamra and Eddie Judge got married! It happened! There was even a bike artfully dangling upside down from the ceiling and everything! Because of how Eddie loves bikes! Frankly, I'll admit -- I was pretty sure when we learned that Tamra's dresses weren't going to arrive until the morning of the ceremony that the whole deal was going to devolve into tears and stabbing.

That was not the case. It was fine. All three dresses (THREE DRESSES, Y'ALL) arrived and fit her to perfection. If anything, the whole wedding weekend was so uneventful that it was almost as dull as watching a non-reality star's wedding video. Remember how Tamra was fighting with her brother last week? Well this week they made up and hugged while crying. To be fair, that could have been because they were both drinking moonshine.

One of my favorite parts of the evening was Heather Dubrow and Vicki Gunvalson wearing matching towels to get their wedding makeup done. This excited Heather so much that she trotted out of the room to get hers when she spotted Vicki. The woman literally pranced off while singing, "Then we can be Twinkies!" Pretty sure she meant twins, but hey, maybe she also really, really, likes Hostess baked goods. 

There was no family drama at the ceremony. I wouldn't have been well-behaved. I would have been cackling at the officiant who I'm pretty sure had a fake British accent. I bet she has a second career as a sex therapist. She probably hosts all her sessions in a hot tub in her backyard. 

Everyone cried either at the ceremony or at the reception. Somewhere a tissue mogul is twirling his mustache and cackling. All the Housewives wept too -- but out of happiness! Yes, in spite of all of Eddie's concerns, the wives were present, and they mostly behaved themselves. Did Gretchen Rossi talk during the entire ceremony? Yes. Was Lydia McLaughlin inexplicably wearing a child's floral crown purchased from Claire's? Maybe. But it was as though Tamra and Eddie's love had healing properties. Even Vicki was happy, all smoochin' up on Gretchen and what have you as Eddie and Tamra cha-cha'ed the night away.

What did you think of the big event?

Amanda Bynes Is Crying -- But That’s Actually a Good Thing

Amanda Bynes is still in a psychiatric facility following an incident where she was caught lighting a fire in a stranger's driveway. Since then we've heard varying accounts about how she's doing: Some reports say her medications are really helping; others say that is premature. Her mother was just granted temporary conservatorship and she is obviously not ready to leave the facility, so it's hard to tell exactly how she's doing. But one bit of information that just came out sounds like she's improving, even though it's not something that, on the surface, would sound like an improvement. Reportedly, Amanda has been crying.

While this might sound like one of those Duh moments, like of course she's crying, she's in a mental health facility -- apparently those suffering from schizophrenia are often cut off from their emotions to the point where they don't cry. So crying is actually good news!

TMZ reports that Amanda began crying because she was "scared" over an upcoming court hearing. And while it's heartbreaking to think that she is crying and scared -- this is actually good news and viewed as an improvement.

But TMZ also reports that Amanda still thinks there isn't anything wrong with her -- which strikes me as a bad sign. Doctors apparently say, however, that she is able to form "clear thoughts." An insider told Fox411's Pop Tarts:

There are no drug problems involved, it’s all mental. She has deep anger and PTSD, which tripped a psychotic episode ... She is very ill, but manageable. Amanda genuinely wants to get better and has wanted to get better for some time.

Apparently the PTSD, which we normally associate with the trauma of war, was partly triggered by the trauma of Hollywood life! She also is reportedly not close with her parents and has deep resentment toward them.

Whether Amanda has schizophrenia or PTSD, it's still good that she's been in the hospital long enough to be closely monitored. Too many people who are in dire mental condition are not. Whether or not Amanda has a close relationship with her parents, she still needs their help to a certain extent. Maybe all of this will bring them closer.

Do you think Amanda is getting better?
