Описание: A few words from the author and eponymous columnist behind The Onions column, A Room of Jeans Own, Jean Teasdale:
Hi Jeanketeers and Jeanketeers-to-be As The Onions very own Humor and Human-Interest columnist, Ive been entertaining readers for 15 years with kooky tales of life with my hubby and our two feline children. Now for the first time, lil ol me shines front-and-center in a book of my very own A Book of Jeans Own features all-original, never-before-published material, and if that wasnt impressive enough, marks the very first Onion book by a solo writer Historical, huh? My book is sure to find an eager audience among The Onions ten-million-strong readership. Wait, ten million people? I had no idea Frankly, that scares me a little. Were not in Kansas anymore, Toto (Oh shoot, I should have put that hilarious phrase in my book )
A Book of Jeans Own also marks a departure from past Onion books in that it isnt crammed with headlines and articles in teeny-weeny print Instead, I write about the stuff that really matters: shopping, chocolate, part-time jobs, and hot Hollywood hunks Whether you read my book on the bus, the beach, or the toilet, youre guaranteed to find something to chuckle at and deeply relate to
Among the many nuggets of fun:
* I tell you the Twenty Things That Are Better Than Sex
* For the first time ever, you learn my maiden name
* I spill the secrets of my scrumptious chocolate-loaded desserts, such as Ooey Gooey Choco-Cocoa-Mocha Cupcakes With Raspberry Filling And Coconut-Cream Cheese-Cola Frosting
* Acquire valuable, real-world tips on coping with a job you dislike, getting through those rough teenage years, and styling a Jean hairdo of your very own
* Get a giggle out of my doodles and overdose on the words of wisdom that are my Jean Proverbs
* Youve heard of pity parties get my tips for throwing your very own self-pity party
* Check out my own cure for the blues, the Plush Jamboree
* Witness my nervous breakdown while writing this book (well, writing is hard, after all )
* Also for the first time ever, Hubby Rick speaks (Spoiler: Its not entirely in grunts )
* Lots of exclamation points (And phrases in parentheses )
Im sure every single one of those ten million readers will buy my book And who knows? They just may find something in it that will help them lead happier and better lives
