Where the eloquent young pilgrims pass

[fellmama]

So I won a ticket to see David Sedaris in Seattle. Do I go?
Pros:
1) David Sedaris.
2) There are some cool people going, including the lovely bougival and pianochick.
3) A nice way to celebrate finishing my thesis.
4) David Sedaris. I mean, come on.

Cons:
1) Thesis will be written by Monday but is not due to the library until Thursday. This means revision revision revision.
2) Next week, I need to do all the homework I'm not doing this week.
3) I'd have to skip Vandiver's class.
4) I'd have to skip madrigals.
5) I'd get no sleep Monday, and Tuesday is my heaviest classload.

What do you think, blogosphere?

Also, I finished Chapter Two, and I've decided on the schematic for Chapter Three. I am officially declaring myself half-done.

I say go, if it is something you really want to do. You never know when you will have another opportunity.

And what will you remember in 10 years? The day you went and saw him, or the day you stayed at home and did homework?

Dude. It's David Sedaris. I think you've answered your own question.

Go.

Alternate: Give your ticket to me and continue to fret about stupid things like "missing a class even though I've already completed all my graduation requirements."

Or, you could give your ticket to me...

I'd thumb-wrestle Dan for it!

Or you could give it to me since I'd actually be able to thumb-wrestle Anna for it.

Skip class. It's David Sedaris, for cryin' out loud!

David Sedaris!

I'm going too :-) :-) Even though Cotts gave me a pretty effective, if short and indirect, guilt trip about it.
