Have you ever hit rock bottom? I embarrassingly have.
It's why I'm wearing my girl's decorative scarf over my head, clutching her lady drink to my chest, and singing ever so softly to Joni Mitchell while swaying back and forth.

How did I get here? My assistant, bent on one knee, holding my hand, her expectant face waiting for an answer...Just...how?

Ready? Here it goes...I've recently become the pawn of a meddling mom.

Okay, that might not be the headline in the newspaper this morning, but it's the reality of my current situation. It all started a month ago when I received a call from my best friend, Kinsley. She'd gotten a new job in Chicago and needed a place to stay. I've known the girl since I was five, so I figured there wouldn't be any harm in having her stay at my place for a while.
