Bossypants

I finished another non-fiction book. And I did it in less than a day! 

It was hilarious. I laughed out loud on several parts. I loved Tina Fey before and I love her even more now. It makes me want to re-watch all of 30 Rock. Which is what I am doing. 

Here are some good quotes from the book.

Why could I never remember? That feeling of “I’m pretty sure this next step is wrong, but I’m just gonna do it anyway” is part of the same set of instincts that makes me such a great cook.

I had definitely never heard of anyone peeing in a cup and leaving it in their own office on a bookshelf to evaporate and be absorbed back into their body through the pores on their face.

In September, my daughter was born. (For the record: epidural, vaginal delivery, did not poop on the table.)

(About 30 RockWe premiered on Wednesday, October 11, 2006, at 8:00 P.M. and we were an instant hit—like figs for dessert or bringing your guitar out at a party. We were New Coke! We were not a hit. But we barreled ahead knowing that we’d at least come out of this with DVDs to show our friends.

I need to take my pants off as soon as I get home. I didn’t used to have to do that. But now I do. (I am 25 and I totally do this.)

You'll have the read the rest of the book to get the other good stuff.

I read this in a day too. It was hilarious. I even bought the audiobook for road trips. It was funny all over again with her reading it.

I"ll have to get that from the library. I didn't realize she was the one who read it. I bet it is great.

she reads the audio?? cool!!! I read it a couple weeks ago and could totally hear her reading it in my head but I bet the actual thing would be awesome!!! I was laughing my head off when I read it though. Tina Fey is my idol. She's tied number one with Josh Groban for people I want to meet :) I love her!!!
