Download It Looked Different on the Model: Epic Tales of Impending Shame and Infamy AudioBook Free
Everyone's favorite Idiot Gal, Laurie Notaro, is merely trying to find the right fit, be it in the lovable blouse that appears charming on the mannequin but leaves her in a literal bind or in her community after she's shamefully exposed at a holiday party by delivering a low-quality rendition of "Jingle Bells." Notaro makes misstep after riotous misstep as she attempts (and catastrophically fails) to get some ground---delightfully whipping up butter-laden cupcakes for the neighborhood vegan kids, finding herself banned from the post office for wanting too many two-cent stamps ("The post-office lady looked at me like I had fashioned just asked her if she wished to buy my intimacy tape"), and sensing what is apparently a corpse on her front lawn seconds before her sister is due to visit ("I had fashioned approximately 3 to 4 minutes to go the carcass from my lawn into my neighbours' lawn so my sister would think it was their lifeless person"). She stocks tales of relationship and family, including stories about the dog-bark translator that deciphers Notaro's and her husband's own "woofs" a touch too accurately, the e-mail from her mom with "FWD" in the topic line ("which in email code means Forecasting World Destruction"), and the dead-of-night shopping sprees and Devil Dog-devouring monkeyshines of your creature known as "Ambien Laurie." At every move, Notaro's pluck and amazing candor models the New York Times best-selling publisher on a journey that's laugh-out-loud funny and absolutely unforgettable.
