CLEANSE THE CHAOS!
Wash Your Brain
is a collection of bite-sized stories of mishaps and misadventures originally written over fifteen years as a slice-of-life humor column for half-a-dozen Philadelphia-area newspapers including
The Times Herald
in Norristown, the
Daily Local News
in West Chester,
The Mercury
in Pottstown, and the
Main Line Times
. The stories have been woven together with an overarching theme of "washing your brain"-- achieved by both writing about the chaos in the mind, and by turning the brain upside down in convoluted yoga poses to let the stress ooze straight out. It's a two-way cleanse!
Stories include dodging a killer shark, taming a runaway snowblower, breaking an ankle (again!), drooling over a sexy French dentist, squeezing a husband into Spanx . . . all of this in the daily comings and goings for Donna Debs, who would rather dream about her magical moment with Omar Sharif. How's a woman supposed to stay sane? By washing her brain.
WASHING YOUR BRAIN IS LIKE BRAINWASHING. EXCEPT YOU DO IT YOURSELF.
is a rollicking ride through an off-kilter world. It's a collection of easy-to-grab stories that make you laugh, think, and wonder if it's time to give brainwashing--however you do it!--a whirl.
