Moxie's day began like any other.

Eyes firmly asleep as the light seeped in, Moxie poured out of bed and into the shower. Half a cup of day-old coffee sat on the back of her toilet; taking sips between shampoo and soap, she managed to finish off the cup at the same time as she finished offer her shower.

Make-up, a crumpled bra and a lightly stained white shirt followed a fresh cigarette and her favorite jeans.

* That's good enough *

Moxie stumbled into the street, hailed an Uber, and arrived at her destination. The driver looked at her expectantly and she whispered in his ear.

Shivering, the driver looked away - and Moxie stepped out of the car. Once Moxie reached the sidewalk the car drove way and Moxie went to her office mailbox.

* Nothing from yesterday *

Closing the mailbox, Moxie headed over to her computer. Clicking a few buttons, Moxie initiated a data-search for potential widows.

* Nope, too sweet *
* Nope, she wouldn't miss him *
* Nope. Nope. Ah ha! *

Having identified her target, Moxie generated a portfolio of the couple. Identifying age, origin, hobbies, and likely insurance policy, Moxie spun her even wheel; this was her favorite part - the anticipation of where the wheel would land.

* It looks like he got jealous of her success and had her tailed. She spent too much time away from home and they simply stopped talking. They're perfect. *

Moxie whipped up an email to her standard placement agency for a thespian who specialized in flirtatious male assistants.

* Standard contract, target the wife, have her disappear *

Email sent, Moxie drafted ad-copy for happy husbands.

" Yes, these will do. *

Contacting the advertising agency that targeted the husbands primary driving routes, as well as near his house, Moxie arranged for billboards and simple off-hour television spots to be released two weeks after the assistant started.

* Might even net a few friends as well. *

Smiling, Moxie opened up her blinds and sipped her coffee.

* Its gonna be a beautiful day *
