About "Lightweight"
Two weeks after losing her job, Elizabeth thought she was coming back to Pittsburgh for a family funeral and a few days with her mom. But her boyfriend dumps her right after meeting a house full of embarrassing relatives. Disconnected from her life, and staying with her eccentric mother, she sometimes feels she’s just floating away. Or is she?

Elizabeth lost her job. She lost her boyfriend. She’s staying with her mother. Now she can’t keep her feet on the ground. Really.
