This book was all right, I enjoyed it. I liked his chapter about bad grammar the best ("How to Speak") and vowed to stop saying/typing "anyways" instead of "anyway" since it's not actually a word. I'll probably accidentally type it in the next paragraph, though.

I probably can't use most of his advice. For example, I probably won't ever hire a bartender for my cocktail parties. 1. I don't drink, and 2. The biggest party I threw in the last year was my 2 year old's birthday party. And no one even brought me a bottle of wine for a gift, the losers.

I can see how fancy people may think that I am uncultured, what with not knowing the different types of eating styles (American or Continental - depending on which hand you put the fork in to bite the food, and how to lay the utensils down when you're done) or not tailoring every (any) item of clothing I own. I think I look just fine in my favorite pair of jeans from Walmart, but apparently that wouldn't fly in the circles of fabulousness the author circulates in.

Good thing I know I am freaking awesome, (even if not fabulous), huh?!]]>
