Welcome to <i>Laurie Notaro’s</i> Christmastime. In ten brand-new stories and three previously published favorites, Notaro shares the sidesplitting daily disasters of the holidays, like finding herself on emergency feminine product recon at midnight on Christmas Eve; surrendering to the inevitable Horrible Gift Parade by simply asking for holiday dish towels and giant white underpants from Sears; battling the morons in line at the Seventh Circle of Hell, otherwise known as the do-it-yourself craft store; and trying to live down her reputation as the Most Unfun Christmas Party Guest Ever, due to an unfortunate misunderstanding involving a fake overdose and emergency paramedics. So whether you find yourself at the Dull and Smart Party or the Raucous and Stupid Party this holiday season, you’ll always know where to find Laurie – just follow the chocolate trail over to the cheese platter. She’ll be the one dialing the cops. 10646 book 1 11 2005 An Idiot Girl's Christmas: True Tales from the Top of the Naughty List total:817|5:240|4:287|3:228|2:56|1:6| 817 3150 1324 93 3 0 false false Thu Jan 15 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 14:24:54 -0800 2009 Fri Jan 16 14:40:37 -0800 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Fri Dec 01 00:00:00 -0800 2006 Sat Dec 22 09:32:04 -0800 2007 Sat Dec 22 09:32:16 -0800 2007
