Still, Ariel's sultry new boyfriend, Shane, manages to make even the worst days delicious. But after Desiree accepts half a meatball grinder, a cold drink, and a ride from her mother's boyfriend one rainy afternoon, nothing is ever simple again. But with a life thats anything but, how long can normal really last? Hanging with Jeremy, avoiding Mam, sticking Do Not Disturb Post-its on her heart, Desiree's mission is simple: party hard, graduate (well, maybe), get out of town. Until the day Tad, a quirky McDonald's counter boy, asks Madeline out for a date, and she gets her first taste of normal. Big Macs and pop tunes mask the emptiness as Madeline watches her mom drink away their welfare checks. Doomed loves, failed families, nixed dreamssomeone else's leftovers are heaped on our plates the day we come into this world.
