Gosh, I don't think that I've ever been stressed out. Why would I be? I've got practically no respon

As I may have mentioned here about 23456788 times in the past month or so, work has been STRESSFUL. With a capital FULL.

And it's been taking its toll on me pretty heavily.

So, I've come up with a solution. It's fairly simple, really.

I need to be Karen Walker for a day.

I've never been a huge Will & Grace fan, but I do like the show, particularly Karen, (for those of you who've never seen the show, Karen is Grace's rich-bitch-who-doesn't-give-a-shit assistant).

This would be an example of a Perfect Karen Day:

1. Start drinking early.

2. Eat whatever I want.

3. Go to the spa.

4. Go shopping.

5. Say (and maybe even do) whatever the hell comes to my mind.

So, who's in? I have a lot of friends who are going through mildly or majorly shitty times lately - who wants to be Karen for a day? (Or your drunken loudmouth of choice - Karen's just an example/touchstone of what I've been trying to get at lately.)

Like all things, I think it depends on context. I was told by someone at a Christmas party one year that I looked/sounded like Karen. Of course, when one is wearing a slinky top with a black suit with her hair up and drunkenly clinging to a vodka tonic, who else could she look like?
