David Sedaris Gives me a Graduation Present

Okay, so yesterday I went to Vroman's where David Sedaris had a reading and a book signing. He read two stories from his new book, but what was really interesting (and funniest of all) was a story about language involving the word Nicaragua, replying to questions in Japanese, and rabbits with nonsensical names like "Unemployment" and "Moist."

Unfortunately, this story will never be published because, as Mr. Sedaris himself noted, it doesnt work as well on paper. I disagree. Luckily for us, the fact that the story will never be published also means it will never be copyrighted. Therefore, I would like to start a project of reconstructing the story online. Anyone who can help should post it on their blogs and whatnot.

Anyway, the book was supposed to be signed with a shout out to Kathy, but Sedaris, probably distracted by my incoherent babbling, put "shout out to Amy," probably thinking of the exceptionally youthful-looking 34-year-old I had earlier tried putting a move on.

Anyway, it eventually had come out that I had graduated, in which case he gave me a present: a tongue depresser on which had been written "I live on a Pirate Ship." He had also been conducting a survey on whether people thought Barack Obama was circumcised or not. When last I checked, circumcised was winning.

Stay classy.

The International Council on Irreverence: A Challenge

I let go of another restaurant

Cabrera's family restaurant is officially off my list. Now I have to find somewhere new to get a burrito, which shouldn't be hard. There's a nice place on Allen and Villa, so, yeah.
It's hard for me to do this most of all because it proves Adrian Lopez right.
