A bit more about how our personalities mesh well...Originally Posted by iris lilies
Last night we went to see David Sedaris at a book signing in Napa. While we were standing in line for SO to get his book signed I said "I should have gotten one of his books from the library to be signed! That would make it special for everyone that reads it if they see that he'd autographed it with a (most likely sarcastic) note to the library." Then SO said "knowing David's sense of humor maybe it would be even funnier if you had brought one of Amy's (his sister) books and asked him to sign that. To which I responded "Like Assassination Vacation? That book was great!" To which SO responded "Yes, but that was actually Sarah Vowell. Of course that might be even funnier. I can just hear him telling the story in a future book: (SO in David Sedaris voice) "So I was at a book signing in Napa and this guy came up and asked me to sign one of Sarah Vowell's books! I mean, the nerve! Yes, she's a friend, but still! And it was a library book!!!! Not even one that he had bought!! So I signed it all right. And said exactly what I was thinking."
