questions: how does a girl who falls -- no, actually, she jumps...
...eyes open, down a rabbit hole, plummeting into chaos...
...come out the other end unchanged?
the answer?
she doesn't.
see, i know, because that girl is me.

but to truly understand
the predicament i was in...
...i.e., stuck in the middle of chaos.
you'd have to go back to that first day at my new job.
acutally, to be fair, you should go back a little further...
...starting with mom.
don't worry. i am not blaming her...
...entirely

she believed that all problems could be soloved by listening to carly simon.
greatest hits
side two. hurry.
something about her voice, or her lyrics, or her music...
...helped mom clear the chaos...
...especially after a fight with dad.
or when he left us for good.
people said mom was better off.
they said she was lucky.
but she believed...

luck is when preparation meets opportunity.
you gotta prepare for the life you want.
and although i knew i wanted a career in broadcast journalism.
...it took a little carly and a lot of time...
to find a person i most wanted to work with.
she is smart and she is learning - diane sawyer.
chic, smart, intelligent
- and she married well.
good point.
-she's little beige
no, no, she's taupe
taupe is never beige.
taupe's classic. confident.
it says, "i'm elegent."
- "and i don't need color to prove it."
there you go.
i wanna work with her one day.
- you should work with her.
i will work with her.
with my career decided, i left for college...
...hopeful i would meet someone i could be certain of.
