Coming to Terms with Mediocrity: One Life Lesson at a Time

Unless there is something unique about you, such as you're an alien or superhuman or totally full of sh*t, you live your life like the rest of us - one mundane, mediocre moment at a time. That's what this book is about. It's about moment-to-moment personal endeavors and the lessons they can teach to the people who live a daily life - us. The topics range from the underlying fear that the author is wasting her life by not getting to the things she knows deep down she should do, to why Mother Nature is a rat-eating assh*le. Some other topics covered are: dieting; the dreaded plateau; money (or lack thereof); asking for help; a man's relationship to food; how expectations can make us miserable; the role of flatulence in marriage; the anxiety of writing a book and risking ridicule and failure; and the horrifying discovery that she's not a supermodel, rock star or racecar driver, and is, instead, a nervous wreck. The book is personal, unpretentious, totally open, and pretty darn funny, too.
