Synopsis

One day, I, Cordelia Codd, will be glamorous. I will take taxis everywhere, have an absurd-looking little dog, and Wednesdays will be manicure day.

But for now, I'm stuck with:

a totally un-glamorous school bus chauffeur,
two mean EX-best friends,
a 50% reduction in parents,
and cat litter Fridays.

Did I tell you how utterly ridiculous my life is...?
