I read a trio of Laurie Notaro's books a decade ago, and then declared I was done with her, because her humor could not make up for the relentless pummeling of her self-loathing.
Good thing I got it from the library and didn't waste any money!. The only word that comes to mind is "whatever". The author's sense of humor is not mine and I'm still trying to find humor in getting stuck in shirt that was clearly marked as a size too small and getting blood on it.
G There are few things worse than reading a review that makes a book sound amazing and laugh-out-loud funny, wait for weeks until it's actually in the system, wait all day until there's time to curl up and start reading said hilarious book, and don't laugh.

Oh and last but not least, the dog bark translator.Ī must read for anyone with a wicked sense of humor. Mom's emails where FWD = Forecasting World Destruction (Something I can totally relate to!) Getting banned from the post office aka "The Two-Cent Stamp Bandit"

This book is a funny fast read that helped get me through a trip to the DMV to change my address on my license (I was the only person having fun there), as well as, my daily commute this week. I love Laurie Notaro's unique sense of humor and her non-fiction books are so much better than her fictional ones because of the goofy stuff that happens to her on a daily basis. The gems of this collection include: - Fancy store shirt trapping - Ambien Laurie (she's hilarious!) - Getting banned from 3.5 stars
