As the author of this blog and the new book Midlife Cabernet, I am gloriously giddy about being selected to present a stand-up comedy routine Saturday at the Erma Bombeck Writers’ Workshop in Dayton, Ohio. I’m included on the Erma Bombeck Blog Roll and this blog has been featured on the Erma Bombeck web site, so I am honored to have this opportunity to spin some yarns to a live audience of 400 funny people. And, to my former teachers who were irritated when I was the obnoxious class clown, I apologize but sitting all those hours in the principal’s office didn’t work.
