among friends

amy sedaris is coming to haverford.

can we figure out how to make this woman an honorary friend or something? she’s rude and she’s crude but she’s also awesome and apparently bakes great cupcakes. she’s coming to school the friday of the week we get back – january 23rd. next week, guys.
she kind of makes sense with nao. i’m thinking of nao’s character “rosa” that she performed on the joan rivers show in 1992:

also maybe nao’s “hero” performance fits in here somewhere? :

they both have this special affect thing going on. amy goes on david letterman all the time and she’s not totally serious with it but i always wonder if she is herself or not. i think that’s nao’s gig too in some ways. i guess there’s a little sasha fierce in all of us. anyway, have a look:
