Eggs Over. Not Easy.

Eggs Over. Not Easy.

I was still young (in my generation’s estimations) and was having too much fun being a carefree grown up, enjoying my career and…See More

"Stop Calling Me Ma'am!"

                                            Stop Calling Me “Ma’am!”By Marianne Curan When I tell people how old I am they often say, “Really?” with a slight gasp and an eyebrow raised in suspicion. When I affirm the number, they quickly try to recover by saying, “You look great…” their voices trailing off with a tell-tale dot, dot, dot at the end of the sentence, leaving off what I know they’re really thinking, “You look great…for your age.”They seem slightly incredulous that someone “my age”…See More

"You Can't Always Get What You Want...and That Sucks. A Recession Rant"

 For more of my humor essays:  http://mariannecuran.com/blog/ In hard times I’ve often found comfort from Mick Jagger crooning, “You can’t always get what you want, but if you try sometimes, well, you just might find, you get what you need.” Thanks, Mick! You are so right, man. Everything’s gonna be just fine.Those words soothed me when an audition I really wanted didn’t come through. I’d trust I’d land the next one—with an even…See More

Funny Women

I want to encourage women to submit to humor venues. I urge you; I implore you. Let’s start a revolution and change the world’s mind about who’s funny. Your heart will swell with accomplishment and your breasts will become larger. This I promise.

Bloobs: My Tale of Growing Older & Wider

 BloobsMy tale of growing older and wider...BY Marianne Curan http://mariannecuran.com/blog/     I've been avoiding my annual “Well Woman” gyno exam. Like most women I don’t like the exam (only a perverted exhibitionist would) but I don’t mind it. It’s quick, painless and protects my health.  More importantly, they have candy at the desk when you check out. Plus, I really like my doctor. He’s gentle and kind. He listens to my whining,…See More
