Ok, so 2 of my dear friends are all keeping up with their blogs and shit. Me? Not so much.
I am the self-professed queen of starting stuff up and then letting it fizzle away. Enough I say!
Last night I went to Massey Hall to see one of my favourite people do a reading. That's right, David Sedaris, I'm talking to you. You know, cuz he's like, totally reading this. :P
He was brilliant as always, tickling the crowd with his dry wit and spot on delivery of stories all about life's minutae and random acts of humour.
One of my favourites had to do with a trip he made to Costco. He likes to give out little gifts at his book signings (safety pins, advil, etc.) So he was looking for something small, light, and individually wrapped. He ended up wandering through Costco with his brother-in-law pushing a cart containing only a club pack of condoms. LOL...
He told his bro in law that they really needed to put something else in this cart so the bro went and grabbed a 5 lb box of strawberries. Which only served to make them look GAYER!
OMG...I thought I would pee my pants. He was all...'yeah cuz you know, we homos like some shortcake afterwards'.
(Note: For those who don't know, Mr. Sedaris is openly gay and was not, and nor am I, being derrogatory. He was just taking the piss out of himself as is his wont.)
Anyhoo, this has nothing to do with anything except that I'm going to try and post on a more regular...er...at least more frequent basis. And then maybe someone will read this. And then they will all think that I'm brilliant and witty and interesting (like Jenn) and I will become a rich and famous blogger and people will wish they were me. HA!
Yours in cheese,
