Description
Winner of the "Indie Book of the Day" award for June 7, 2014.
At 7,600 words, this work is a collection of humorous insights into important topics ranging from annoying pet people (“I’m Not Talking About You, Of Courseâ€), to analyzing your inner child (“Irrational Fearsâ€), to living like the Amish in the aftermath of a hurricane (“A Jolt of Electricityâ€). Other essays examine just how much damage can be caused by a sneeze (“It All Started with a Loud Sneezeâ€), why it is so complicated to buy a tube of toothpaste (“Ask Me No Questionsâ€), how not to prepare dinner ("Martha, I Let You Down"), making new friends ("Friends in Low Places"), how a parent’s obsessive hobbies can become an inescapable vortex (“Crazy Hobbiesâ€), and why spending the night in a sleep clinic is like being abducted by probing aliens (“Nightmare at the Sleep Clinicâ€).
If you don’t see yourself in each of these entertaining essays, then I’m not talking about you, of course.
