Have you read This Is a Book by Demetri Martin?

My friend Eamonn just lent it to me, and it's hysterical. I laugh out loud (lol!) nearly every page. You can buy your own copy here. 

Here are a few other lol-worthy books that I can recommend. 

Tina Fey's Bossypants

Any others that you would suggest? 

Also: do you love combing through Amazon's 'Customers Who Bought This Item Also Bought' as much as I do? Because I once spent often spend hours browsing and clicking through that lovely little wormhole. 

good to remember

And so it is with luck - unlucky people miss chance opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. They go to parties intent on finding their perfect partner and so miss opportunities to make good friends. They look through newspapers determined to find certain types of job advertisements and as a result miss other types of jobs. Lucky people are more relaxed and open, and therefore see what is there rather than just what they are looking for.

My research revealed that lucky people generate good fortune via four basic principles. They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities, make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition, create self-fulfilling prophesies via positive expectations, and adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.
