There was a time in L.A. when I drove to 7-Eleven to go grocery shopping and I locked my keys in my car which wasn't insured. My wallet was in there and I couldn't call AAA because I only had $7 in my bank account. It was one of those moments where I was like 'O.K. I literally have nothing right now.'

Ever consider what pets must think of us? I mean here we come back from a grocery store with the most amazing haul - chicken pork half a cow. They must think we're the greatest hunters on earth!
For a while I couldn't leave the house by myself. Even if I was just grocery shopping alone I'd get self-conscious.
