Jocelyn “Joey” Fellows is having a bad day.
At 24, she’s a college dropout who just got savagely dumped by her ex, Psycho Barbie. Joey works as a waiter in a pretentious, er, upscale Buffalo restaurant, the Heritage Room, with her best friend Steve. Steve is a gorgeous serial dater, gay man candy. He’s had enough of Joey crying in her beer over Psycho Barbie, and convinces her to get back on the horse. Joey is adamant that she doesn’t want a relationship, as her first lasted four years and destroyed her: Psycho Barbie shredded her self-esteem, deflated her bank account, and pressured Joey to drop out of college and work in the restaurant full time to support her, all while cheating on her. Joey needs time to heal and find out who she is. Steve informs her that she can find herself and get laid.
With Steve as her psycho-pimp, and after two bottles of red wine, Joey goes online and posts a personal ad on a dating site: Newbie seeking erotic adventures, good-hearted, would-be ethical slut with no experience seeks experience. No men, no cheating, no relationships. Just good clean sexual fun. Joey ends up going on quite a few adventures, and along the way discovers a joy in sexuality, a new sense of self, and a woman, Leela, who teaches her how to embrace life, lust, and laughter.
