Actually, everything was fine at the moment. But life, as always, thwarts Nell's plans: the podcast sponsor drops out, her newspaper column is discontinued, and the clothes somehow don't fit anymore.

Together, the two survive a lot of catastrophes from failed marriage proposals to a terribly exhausting weekend of self-discovery to very angry relatives!
