Thanksgiving story time! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🦃" title="Truthahn" aria-label="Emoji: Truthahn">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥰" title="Smiling face with 3 hearts" aria-label="Emoji: Smiling face with 3 hearts">

With my first big paycheck from 227 I went out and bought a car.. a Mercedes-Benz 190E.

I pulled up on the lot the next day and Hal Williams, who played Lester, looked DISGUSTED! He said, “Girl, that’s a toy. Take that back and get yourself a real car. You’re a star now!”

So that’s what I did. I replaced it with a White Jaguar.

A few months later, I decided to drive my sister and myself across country to New York to spend Thanksgiving with our family.

Well.. somewhere in Iowa I made a wrong turn and came up on the curb and we got STUCK.

Luckily, the people in Iowa were very friendly. These five big guys PICKED UP THE CAR -with me and my sister in it- and put it right back on track!

We asked if we should get out and they said, “Not necessary.” https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="👀" title="Augen" aria-label="Emoji: Augen">

Well, honey, we made it to New York for Thanksgiving all because of the kindness of strangers. That’s something I’m very grateful for and something I hope we see a lot more of in the new year.

Oh, and this just goes to show that when I looked this good I could get picked up anywhere - literally! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😂" title="Gesicht mit Freudentränen" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Freudentränen">
