I didn’t even try. I’m depressed enough by people IRL, I don’t need to voluntarily add to that.

But stories where we can laugh at people? Comedy gold. So I’d like to hear more from The Pen Of Fisha.

Imagine an old-school bouffant brunette, Off-off-the-strip-Vegas cocktail waitress. Now into her early sixties, but still working hard and drinking hard. Now make her three days locked out of her house, sleeping in the back yard waiting for her husband to come with the key. . . And she couldn’t sleep at all because the neighbors obnoxious terrier was yapping the whole time. . . And she’s been brought in because she finally threw something at the dog, so she’s really, really pissed. . . And she needs a drink.

That’s what she looks like to me.

The technical term for this is:  
Ridden hard and put away wet.  
More than once I might add.

or 50 trying to pass as younger.

Egad. I’m older than 50, can’t be bothered to do a damn thing with hair and makeup, and constantly so tired I stumble into things… and I look better than that.

I know I’ve made fun of her, she made her own bed, she certainly did me no favors at the end.

But yeah, sometimes I feel the same way. I still hope she gets her shit together.
