Betty And Betty-Personal Narrative

Improved Essays
After another phone call to Betty without getting an answer, Louise placed her hands on the sides of her face and moaned. “Oh me, I’ve tried so hard to get through to that stubborn woman and to think I was even willing to work with her, but I was wrong. She might be a bitch, but I still need her help.”
“Wait a minute,” Louise thought placing her hand over her mouth.”Oh my God, I know what I can do. She might be the mayor’s wife, but she will learn I am just as brilliant as she is. She chuckled. “I knew I would come up with a plan to show how foolish she was acting. Now she’ll plead with me, to be her friend,” Louise was overjoyed with her solution.
“A purebred, now that will influence her. Money is the only thing women like Betty understands.”

“I’m speaking of Betty and her son’s dead dog.”
“Isn’t that the one you killed?” Mike asked knowing she would never admit it.
“The dog is dead who cares who did it. It’s done.”
“Now, do you think you can smooth things over?” Mike asked. “You’re the one that killed the boy’s dog. You can’t expect her to ignore that.”
“Sorry, but I convinced Betty that I didn’t do it. I will take care of it. At least, I can try. You understand money and expensive things are what influences women like us.” Louise said with a sheepish grin flipping her long blond hair over her shoulder and went to the bedroom.
A few minutes later, she returned carrying her purse and waved to him
“Good luck,” Mike said and watched as she went to the garage.

I am still furious with you for killing Shane and then to have the audacity to lie. No, my dear, it doesn’t work like that,” Betty said, as her face turned blood red and her eyes sparkled with anger.
“What do you think you’re doing?” She asked and watched Louise trying to get the dog back in the carrier without touching it. After a few minutes, Betty knelt down, picked up the dog, held it in her arms for several minutes, before placing it in the carrier, and closed the latch.
“I want you out of my home this instant! Take that dog with you, Ben has another one.” Betty said following her to the door before she told her. “As long as my husband is mayor, and you’re the President of the Women’s Club, I’ll work with you when I see fit, but don’t you expect one thing more from me because you’re not going to get it.”
Betty raised her voice, opening the front door. “Get out of my house and don’t you come back. You’re not welcome!” She said as she slammed the door.
“Well, it’s not my problem that you think that way,” Louise said going to her car, furious with Betty over her behavior. “She is a bitch and to think I needed to be her

    Hurriedly, I buckled my seatbelt, placed in my keys in the ignition, and adjusted my rear view mirror. It was then, I caught a glimpse of the Victorian mansion across the street. I had almost forgotten about the arrangement I had grudgingly accepted to help clean the attic. But after a quick scan of my surroundings, I quickly realized the vicinity was absent of any dump truck. So maybe they forgot, I shrugged, hoping this piece of logic would justify my actions.…

Jackson was an imposing figure standing six feet two inches tall, topped with coal black straight rather slightly too long hair. His skin seemed perpetually tan and gave him somewhat of a Mediterranean look with his ice blue eyes. The kind of eyes that you couldn’t help but stare into, but the kind of eyes that sent a chill up your spine if you looked too long.…

    Mad Men's Portrayal of Sexism and Stereotyping of Women in the Sixties In July 2007, the first episode of Matthew Weiner's Mad Men aired on the American television.
