Three words that no one wants to be asked.

Are You Guilty?

Let’s talk about jail. Let me make one thing crystal clear from the get-go—I am absolutely not jail material, no way, no how. You see, first and foremost, the whole "wearing orange" situation is a complete fashion disaster for us fluffy gals. Let's not even get started on the prospect of snoozing on an uncomfortable bed—that's a hard pass from me.

So, in the interest of my comfort and style, I'll be sticking to the straight and narrow as a law-abiding citizen; thank you very much!

Confession Time

I might have a slight tendency to embrace the thrill of going 5 to 7 (maybe 10) miles over the speed limit because life's all about living on the edge, right? But, let's entertain this thought for a moment: if, by some quirk of fate, I were to find myself pondering the accommodations of a correctional facility, the pressing question arises—do they even allow CPAP machines in jail?

I mean, can you imagine the snoring symphony in there?

My need for a good night’s sleep outweighs the speed fact. So, I’ll drive in the far-right lane and let you risk-takers have all the fun.
