Read in one sitting because: it was a joy to read about a fellow-bedwetter, someone who wet the bed into her teens, and who experienced the same trauma and humiliation that I remember; and the book was funny- up to her Judgemental Chapter. For someone who is so determinedly transgressive of social norms in her personal, and her professional life, it was unpleasant to read Silverman's prescriptions/proscriptions about what activities other people should reserve for "Make It A Treat" (MIAT) occasions rather than regular indulgences. Not sure what to make of Silverman's comment regarding the Clinton-Lewinsky scandal that she was, "...kind of tickled to bits that it was with this sassy, chubby Jewess...". Does that come under the category MIAT, or SNAFU?
