Count down to Monday and DAVID SEDARIS!
I have had these tickets since Christmas Eve of 2009. My wife gave them to me for my birthday.
And Monday, October 11, 2010, I will FINALLY get to use them.
I'm going to see David Sedaris, something I've wanted to do for YEARS (meaning years before I got the tickets) ever since one of my professors introduced me to "Barrel Fever" (one of Sedaris's earliest offerings).
For those of you who don't know David Sedaris is the author of a butt load of books about himself. Yeah, that's what memoirists do. His newer stuff isn't as good as his old stuff (yeah, that happens once you've been around for a while) but it's still funny and just really well written and good reading. (he's also the brother of Amy Sedaris of "Strangers with Candy" fame).
And even better, I get to go with my sister and Princess Gary (who went with me to see Augusten Burroughs, so it's extra awesome for us).
WOOT! Can't wait!
