Description: Stories Along An A extraordinary Journey

Synopsis:

Review: "you have me rolling on the floor over here. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time, and I'm only half way through. I like the counseling story, and the ink on the bed sheets. Oh and I like drinking the water out of the vase... OMG, I never thought you were this funny. LOVING IT!!! I loved the candid short stories full of humor and inspiration. It is refreshing to read about someones perseverance through the pitfalls in life. I honestly had a hard time putting it down. A feel good read!!! My favorite and I laughed to the point where I couldn't see through my eyes, was you bitching about Chaos, and you were bent over tying your shoe, as you look up you get a glimpse of the toothpaste on top of the tv. ...I was rolling. I guess I read the way you write, so it is like a movie or short clip. You are now officially my new favorite author, hee hee!" - Tammy Yaxtheimer, San Leandro, CA ---Stories Along An A extraordinary Journey-----About the Author: Stacy Poulos----Me, I was the Cinderella type, wanting to save the planet, idealistic about my future, having that innocence that the worlds a good place with good people, etc, etc, blah, blah, blah, waiting for my handsome prince to come sweep me away. I envisioned and pursued a unique and fun life and career as film producer and a photographer since I was 7. I was ready and willing to endure the pit falls with poise. In my experience I found the funniest things in life aren't funny at all ...at the time. But when I somewhat gracefully survived and reflected... I always found the ironic humor in them as I learned from my mom. When people meet my mom, there mouth is usually dropped open. I watch them as they're amazed at some of the things that comes out of her mouth. Such as sympathy is between -shit and syphilis- in the dictionary. This book is a accumulation of stories I wrote over the years on my journey of sibyl rivalry, going to college, starting and maintaining a business on a shoestring budget, driving shitty cars, and surviving relationships. I was sure I was going to pull out of every short coming and these were just little set backs before I made my way to the top. Its frigin funny now. Determination is like spilled water flowing on a mission, it doesn't stop until it reaches its goal. It doesn't always know its being pulled by an invisible force manifested by gravitation, the human spirit. The direction isn't always as relevant as its missions journey that survives obstacles, because of the compelling pull of gravitation to its destiny. A journey that has no end because it resides in the heart and soul. -Stacy Poulos----Contents----For my Mom----Introduction----In A Nutshell ----Dedication ----Acknowledgments ----Cake Mix ----Candied Hearts ----The Mistress 21----Sweet William in the Morning, Wild Bill at Night ----Mr. Bojangles ----Flying Fishes ----Hand-Me-Down Cars ----Tow Truck From Hell ----Three Minute Eggs ----Macaroni & Cheese ----In A Pickle ----My Brother Dopey ----Female Appointment ----Dirty Harry ----Out Of Toilet Paper?----29 And Only One Grey Hare ----Dr. Jeckel and Mr. Kera-Beaucoup ----Being Dinged ----My Nana and Bill ----Rhetorical Question? ----Something Else The Easter Bunny Brings ----Bachelor / Bachelorette Pad ----Larry Cracker Jack, Crackpot Counseling, Inc. ----Single And Available! ----My Other Brother Dope-y ----Tampons, Kitchens, and Bathrooms; ----Designed By Men, Made For Women ----Its All About The Egg! ----Aliens Have Taken My Mother ----Splitting Atoms & Stamping Envelopes ----Mid Stream ----From the book Beer Notes & Coffee Stains ----Beer Notes & Coffee Stains ----One Riddle of my Life: 38 years in 28 years ----Dust Bunnies ----Innies & Outies, Onezy-Twozys ----Notation: ----Paris, France.
