Wishful Drinking by Carrie Fisher. OK, I literally read this in an evening while Gavin read Wired and Dad watched House. Apparently it's more or less a transcript of her stage show. I want to see that show. Excerpt: “And now for a list of famous alcoholics: Ulysses S. Grant. Edgar Allen Poe. George W. Bush. Russia.” hee! Funny and entertaining without too much substance. She did talk a bit about her drug use, alcohol use, and being diagnosed as bipolar. That was good to read, especially right now. She seems to have had far more serious swings than I do, but. She talked about using drugs and alcohol not necessarily to feel good but to get to normal. I think I'm that way with food. An interesting realization.
If you can pick it up at a bargain table, it's worth the five bucks.
