JOEY, angelic and beautiful has a big day ahead of her. It's her wedding day. However, now that the big day has arrived she finds herself unsure of what she wants. And it's not because of her philandering groom-please. She knew about that months ago. What she's unsure about is, is this what she really wants? Does she really know herself like she thinks she does? Is she where she wants to be in life and truly, in love? Life is absurd and it's about to get weirder as these thoughts become overwhelming sending her in to a catatonic daydream.
