Product Description

Product Description
The energetic, inspired first book of Mimi Smartypants, who has kept a cult on-line diary for the past 3 years. Mimi has bags of attitude and a brilliant observational style that's fun, fast and frivolous. This is the real-life diary of a sassy, funny, straight-talking thirty-something Chicago girl who tells it like it is. Mimi first appeared on the hot internet site diaryland.com which hosts over 400,000 live diaries from -- mostly girls -- all over the world and has 800,000 registered users. Mimi became the most clicked diary and is now officially a web cult. Mimi lives in Chicago with LT (husband -- she was a child bride) cat (cat), Kat (friend, female, good for staying up late and getting into trouble in bars), travels the El (Elevated Railway), drinks beer (in bars) and occationally dresses up in twily dresses and makes like the undead at Neo's goth nights (it's an affliction she's trying kick). she is 30 years old (but looks younger), is 5ft 1inch (but looks taller), weighs (never weighs herself...it says 127 on her drivers license). She's left handed (she cannot do anything with her right hand -- except lift drinks at bars), she looks in other peoples medicine cabinets when the owner is not around, hates people saying ATM machine ( since the 'm' stands for machine already doh), has never had a cavity (wierd) and likes penguins. Most of all Mimi Smartypants gets it...and so do hundreds of thousands of her followers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great writer....great person, 7 Dec 2003
By A Customer
I've been reading Mimi for only a year or less, but her blog is a great read and I have even met the mystery woman in person (living nearby and all). She is very cool and her musings on life are hilarious, weird, interesting and will make you go "hmmmm." Guaranteed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous, and portable!, 11 Feb 2004
Snappy and surreal, it's a terrific read. But if you're one of the Mimi faithful, you knew it would be. Bonus: You can take it with you on the El, no batteries required.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bus crazies, Heavy Drinking and Severed Heads, 4 Feb 2004
By Erica Olsen (New York, USA) - See all my reviews
Mimi is the best darn writer on the Internet, and she's been giving it away for free for years. I was so excited about this book that I exchanged some wacky UK monetary units to acquire it here in New York. Read Mimi Smartypants immediately, and may you find a severed head of your very own.
