Tripping Through
How can one person attract so much disaster?Quirky, clumsy, and eager-to-please Karly has more than her fair share of bad luck.Waaaay more.We first meet our 29-year-old accountant in her loud (the fire alarm is going off) and smoky (she's trying to bake) kitchen. During the chaos, Karly is dumped because of misunderstandings over a divorce lawyer she didn't hire and an affair she didn't have. This comes just weeks after performing a very efficient audit on a company…that wasn't actually a client. Oops.Single and unemployed, Karly continues tripping through life, both metaphorically and physically. She thinks her luck may be turning when she meets the perfect man but in true-to-Karly form, manages to scare him off. And he isn't just “not returning her phone calls” scared but more “sprinting away across the parking lot screaming like a banshee” scared. Crap.Just as she thinks it can't get any worse, it inevitably does. Is Karly destined to lead a life of loneliness and poverty or does fate have something else in mind?
