Sometimes you have a week that's so awful, and you think, wow, this has been so awful that at least we can all be comforted in the knowledge that this can't possibly, possibly get more awful than it already is, and then -- you turn around, and while you were smugly saying that, somehow it got more awful??

My maid is pregnant. She's not married, it's a terrible scandal, blah blah, how silly, an unwed, pregnant young woman cannot serve the Lady Brittany, most eligible woman in the world, and do you have any idea what a headache my mother's voice can give?

I liked Lally. She knew how to deal with my hair. It's thick. Nobody ever knows how to fix it. And now I need to find a new maid because my mother swears she is going to faint in public and then die if I don't, and --

Does she have any idea how stupid she sounds? How -- none of that matters! Life is short and complicated and terrible and sometimes you just want Lally to do your hair!!
