True story my sister's appendix decided that it really didn't want to be in her body anymore and she was really upset because this coincided with David Sedaris being in our town to promote this book. I really didn't quite get why she was so upset with this, but now that I've read this book I totally get this. This book was so hilarious and great that I was legitimately laughing out loud. I totally recommend this and can't wait to read more of his work. 
 Also I listened to this on audiobook and David Sedaris read it and it was great. A few of the pieces were from live performances and it was interesting to hear the audience responding.
