Summary
For almost a decade, she’d been attempting to get her music career off the ground. At 18, Therese arrived in Los Angeles with no contacts, no connections, and absolutely no friends. She’d worked dozens of odd jobs in bars and restaurants and retail, sometimes quitting, sometimes fired for skipping shifts to play last-minute gigs. When she couldn’t afford rent, she’d beg her landlord for a few more days, and then walk dogs or clean houses or pull weeds to get just enough to not get herself evicted. For so long, it had all seemed so pointless. Breaking her back and for what? It wasn’t until the past two years that she finally felt the fruits of her labor. And finally, Therese simply…Blew. The Fuck. Up.
Even in the most optimistic, rose-tinted fantasies of her career, Therese never imagined she’d be taking a casual afternoon stroll around Silver Lake Reservoir with Carol Aird, a singer whose celebrity spanned nearly Therese’s entire lifetime. But then again, she’d also never imagined Carol Aird would go out of her way to publicly call her a hack, either.
