You Are My Number One

Last night when Vanessa sent me a text message that she and her husband were at the famous Elliott Bay bookstore in Seattle for a David Sedaris reading/signing I was so jealous. She, like me, is a super fan. Then she told me she chatted with him for awhile before he signed her copy of his latest book "When You Are Engulfed in Flames" and I got jealous and nostalgic, as I recalled the time my brother Matt and I went to hear him read on his last book tour in Phoenix. It was really great and I too got my copy autographed.  He is not only my favorite writer, but a gracious person to meet which makes being a fan all the more worth it, in my opinion. 

While recounting all these emotions and memories to John last night, he must have been really feeling me because he went right online and purchased us two tickets to see Mr. Sedaris when he 'performs' in PA this October. I was over the moon! I partly have Vanessa to thank for that :)
