Publisher's Synopsis
Most of my life, I have heard, "Only you, Lauren," and have frequently asked myself, "Why does crazy shit always happen to me?" Now I have found an answer to the question I have asked myself over the years....to share my stories with you! The way I figure it is that there is no point to annoying, frustrating, funny and downright unbelievable shit to happen, unless you are going to share those stories with others. In this book, you will find a series of true stories written and experienced by me. Some will be very short, while others needed multiple pages to get the full story down. You will read about my family members, friends, former friends, boyfriends, ex-boyfriends, colleagues, past clients and many more people who have helped me fill the pages of my life so far. After reading this book, I encourage you take a minute to think about all the stories of your life, both good and bad, and look at how they have contributed to who you are today. For me, these stories are more than just funny and crazy shit that has happened to me over the years. Each one of these stories has taught me something I may not have learned without them, and have helped to shape me into the person I am today. At the end of each chapter, you will read what I learned from each one of the stories I share. Some lessons were life-changing, while others simply taught me not to cut 12 inches off a bridesmaid dress before trying it on. Actually, come to think of it, maybe that should be considered a life-changing lesson! As I always say, everything happens for a reason, even the bad stuff. It is our job to figure out what that reason is, no matter how small, and use that information to expand our horizons and live a happier and healthier life. Enjoy!
