Oh, so glamorous
I’ve said before that I want to see a show or read a bestselling novel with this plot: a single mom who lives paycheck to paycheck without even one pair of Jimmy Choos in her closet, doesn’t get a Starbucks anytime she feels like it, and has no energy to make homemade soap with her kid at the end of the day. Oh and also she’s not beautiful enough for any Hollywood starlet to play her on the big screen. She doesn’t turn anyone’s head or make a rancher from Montana with a zillion dollars fall in love with her by dropping her copies all over the ground at his feet. None of those easy outs. Nope! She lives hand to mouth and counts her lucky stars when there’s a box of mac and cheese left, worries about her car being towed away…
hey! where’s my car? It was sitting out front just a minute ago…
Its. Just. Been. Towed. Away.

Damn, they towed your car??? I’m so sorry!
You know, with the exception of the single part, that’s pretty much my life too. Maybe I’ll write that book so you can read it!

Nobody would watch that show, more’s the pity. It’s too real-life!
No way did your car get towed. That is the suck.

Jenny in VA Says:
What the heck?!? Why did your car get towed?
Maybe the story continues that the fair maiden goes to pay for her car’s release, meets the man at the garage/tow lot and they fall madly in love, live on the outskirts of town in a 2 bedroom home and discover 5 years down the road they have been left a huge inheritance from the Uncle Ed her husband never knew existed.
Never thought of that, now dijya?

NYC MOM Says:
First of all you ARE gorgeous..
Second of all you are joking about the towing; just a story right??
Omigosh was it towed away??? Do you need it where you live..to drive to work and stuff. I don’t drive but do not need to in NYC.
((Hugs).I’ll say a prayer for you (I’m an agnostic but spiritual).

You don’t need a *man* in your story. You will be *found* as a musician, that is.
All of the little starlets will not be qualified to play your role (when your life is made into a movie,) and an authentic talented actress/musician will play you (and, through your movie, she will be discovered as well.)
Now, where are you going to get the money to bail out your towed car?

Momseye-Yeah, you write it okay? I’m too tired.
Bah-wanna join my letter writing campaign? LOL
Tiff–oh yeah it did. No signs, either.
Jen–you think in Harlequin just like me! Alas, the tow truck guy was spitting chaw between the gap in his missing teeth and also had a few disturbing personal hygiene habits…
NYCMom–thanks for the compliment. Sometimes I envy people that live in a city where mass transit is easily doable for a commute.
Debra-do ya think so? Wow, maybe you should write a book! How about the screenplay, lol.
