Southampton - Lots and lots of Hamptons Happenings (and elsewhere) making the scene - here's some dish on who was spotted where and saying what!

"Real Housewives of New Jersey's" Kim G had quite the Memorial Day weekend in the Hamptons. It was just supposed to be a low-key, relaxing holiday weekend with friends spent hunting for property to call her own in the Hamptons while she stayed at the Southampton Inn, but with a single tap on the shoulder all of that changed. After an already tumultuous dinner at Bobby Van's in Bridgehampton, Kim faced a potentially awkward situation. Standing at the bar, Kim felt a tap on her shoulder before turning around and hearing, "Hi Kim, I'm Paul, Dina [Lohan]'s brother." "I think I turned 10 shades of white," Kim told friend and co-instigator Celebrity Magnet Tom Murro, "I didn't know which way to fly! Left, right, under the bar?"

As you may know, Kim has been caught on film kissing Michael Lohan, Dina's ex-husband, and has even hinted in her own blogs at a blossoming relationship. Now, not only was she facing Dina's brother, but he informed her Dina would be there soon. So, yes, this encounter quickly could have veered in the wrong direction. And Kim knew this immediately, "I told myself, Kim, this is so awkward!"

When Dina showed up less than a half an hour after Kim met Paul, the girls hit it off immediately. Kim had nothing but positives to share about her new friends. In fact, after that first night, they essentially spent the rest of the weekend together. Saturday night, after spending the day with more house-hunting, Kim caught up with her newfound friends that night at Hamptons hotspot Nello's. Kim, Dina, and Paul were just hanging out, having fun, getting to know one another and sharing stories about their children.

But, you might be asking, what about Michael? Believe it or not, there was no talk of Michael all weekend. "I stayed away from the subject," Kim admits, "Nothing came up and I didn't think it'd be appropriate anyway."
