DESCRIPTION:
This new book from the full-time comedy writer follows in the wake of It's Always Darkest Before the Fridge Door Opens and the bestselling Didn't My Skin Used to Fit?.

No one looks at growing older quite like Martha Bolton. And when readers are laughing the loudest, she'll touch them with a moving or poignant observation to remind them about the value of life
She can entertain herself in the hospital waiting room (by catching up on four-year-old magazine articles), she can think of several advantages to global warming (higher water temperatures will pre-cook fish), and she loves playing board games (a round of Strained Back-Gammon, anyone?).
