What are we talking about today?

I'll get back to theme days once I find a groove of posting regularly. In the meantime, most of my posts are about some variation of books, bikes, buses, or Broadway. Plus bits about writing, nonprofits, and grief from time to time.

This blog is mostly lighthearted and pretty silly. It's not about the terrible things happening in the world, but please know that I'm not ignoring those things. I just generally don't write about them here.

Teaser Tuesday

Yay, my first-ever Teaser Tuesday! Today's book is the one I actually got on Christmas day:

Sleeping Naked is Green
Vanessa Farquharson

"He's probably my best friend, if you divide shared interests and opinions by soul-baring conversation, and multiply this by 15 years."

"Her message tonight was thus loud and clear: no deodorant = no babies."

I definitely recommend this book-- it's a memoir (which I love) and a lot of fun-- I giggled a lot in the course of reading it.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Should Be ReadingAnyone can play along! Just do the following:
  • Grab your current read
  • Open to a random page
  • Share two (2) “teaser” sentences from somewhere on that page
  • BE CAREFUL NOT TO INCLUDE SPOILERS! (make sure that what you share doesn’t give too much away! You don’t want to ruin the book for others!)
  • Share the title & author, too, so that other TT participants can add the book to their TBR Lists if they like your teasers!

The one about the deodorant is great.

Isn't it hilarious? It doesn't even need context to be funny.

No problem! My husband didn't love it; I drove him crazy with my giggling!

If that second quote is anything to go by than this does indeed sound like a fun book. No deodorant, no babies - I love it.

That one is among the best, but it's not the only funny by a long shot. :)
