If you tune into WIDK morning news at 6 am each morning in Sunnyville, Nebraska you'll see Rose. Stumbling through a report about a local wiener dog race, her blond bob and splotchy, earnest eye makeup a fixture on the local news scene. When Rose was studing journalism in college, she quietly assumed she'd rise in the ranks until she would eventually be anchoring the Today Show, quipping adorably back and forth with Al Roker. But here she sits, six years after her appointment witih WIDK reporting on the milk prices, beauty pageants, the occasional car theft, Alderman election scandals and downtown green space cleanup efforts. This stupid little town doesn't deserve her. She's meant for greatness and she despises their perky greetings on the streets. The handshakes in the three restaurants downtown. She doubts any of them even know where Wall Street is, those hicks. What Rose really wants is a story she can sink her teeth into. Bribery! Murder! Insider trading! These are subjects worthy of the talent that Rose knows lies deep, deep, deep, deep within her. And she is willing the universe to send them her way because that's her only ticket out of this hellhole. But while she waits, she will inform her viewership about Barney, the 4 year old Dachsund who runs at the speed of a child's kickball pitch, and wears a tiny cowboy hat for public appearances. All with a strange, half-smile on her face and hatred in her heart.
Meet Elizabeth. She has a giant Goldendoodle, Charles, whose exuberance for life can be endearing for some, but downright dangerous for others. Upon greeting newcomers to her home, Charles immediately jumps up to lick their faces - sometimes springing up into the air and crashing into their nose.
She goes into the pool restroom barefoot. She worked a stint in the infant room at a daycare center and was completely unphased by the diaper changing and poop getting on her fingers. Bodily fluids do not bother Judes, regardless of whether they come from human or animal.
Now that she's in her thirties, and still single, she finds it a bit harder to endure her romantic ideals but she will not give up hope! Surely there is a gorgeous man out there who loves to talk about his feelings, monogamy, loves to buy little presents for no reason, would totally get her sense of humor,
