turn off the boob tube & read: dad is fat

here's mom being fat

justin found my most recent novel sitting on the countertop in our bathroom and instantly got offended that i was reading a book that would be about me trying to help him lose weight. well, sadly that wasn't the story. jim gaffigan's novel "dad is fat" is absolutely hilarious. i've read several comedian novels in the last year but this is by far my favorite [watch out book club! this ones coming to you]. it's written in several essays and are essentially all about parenthood and children. read an excerpt from the book [about comparing dogs to children] here. there are so many one liners, i couldn't put them all in here.

seriously guys, go check out this book. you will thank me.
