Sedarises
What’s the plural for “Sedaris”? Anyone know? I ask because the Sedaris Siblings are happening.
Amy Sedaris is coming to Atlanta (Decatur, actually) on September 28th. She’ll entertain the crowd with selections from her book, I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence. Head over to Wordsmiths for the scoop. I’ve bought two copies as gifts, now I’ll have the opportunity to get a signed copy for myself. Nice.
If you missed David Sedaris on This American Life, run – don’t walk – right on over to this link right here. David’s story is right after the intro piece. Warning: you may soil yourself. Which is in keeping with the story being told actually. I had to quit listening to the tale at work – even though I was wearing earphones. When Sedaris warms up to THE mystery in his childhood home lukewarm coffee shot right out of my nose. And then I was giggling uncontrollably. I was drawing attention to myself. You’ve been warned.
And then there’s Paul. If you’ve read any of David’s books, you know him affectionately as “The Rooster.”

Lucy’s mom actually has one of Paul’s aprons signed to her from Amy…not sure if she’s traveling with ‘em this time, though.
Also, the plural is “Sedari”. Get with the program.

“And they eat corn.”
Right up there with “Call me Ishmael” and “My knees were bent and I jounced the limb,” if you ask me.

Goodness. And just when I thought that the only thing that COULD crack me up that much was The Flight of the Conchords, which I’m ridiculously obsessed with these days, this absolutely did it.
And HA! No WONDER the culprit never owned up to it, would you?

I am so there on Sept. 28! My Sedaris book is eagerly awaiting that night out.

Beth, tell ‘em BGB sent you for 20% off of the free admission.

Russ may be right with “Sedari”, but I think “Sedarisesses” is way more fun to say. I can not wait for the 28th!
