Oh! Secretary's Day started out well!
I lent a coworker my David Sedaris Me Talk Pretty One Day.
He just returned it with apologies for "scribbling" on the title page.
I opened it and it's signed to me by Sedaris! He did a signing at UCLA.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
On an unrelated topic, would it be terribly uncouth of me to tear apart this oven-fried chicken I'm eating for lunch with my hands? The drumstick was easy enough to eat, but I'm having trouble coming up with a polite way to dismantle the breast. Hmmm.....

If I only had a brain...
Fried chicken and pizza are finger food if you want them to be.

At home or on a picnic, yes. But at my desk, for some reason I'm hesitant.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
No, Jessica, that's how you eat chicken. Just lay in a supply of napkins before you start.

That's so cute! How did he sign it? He signed a book for me, "Every day is something to cry about." which? true.
And to my friend -- "Rebecca! It's so nice to finally meet you!" (They'd never corresponded or anything. She was just one of the 200 or so people there to see him read.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, that's wicked cool. I need to remember that sort of thing in case I ever get in a position to have something signed.
