I did everything. I ran my life exactly as I wanted to, all the time. I never listened to anybody. I'm pig-headed. ↗

So many times I've wanted to crack up, standing there stiff while seven women are crawling round my toes fixing hems and the designer's having a freak-out because the denim cuffs are crooked. I'm on the verge of hysteria. ↗
