Each second is another second wasted‚ another page unread‚ another drawing not drawn‚ another achievement not obtained.

We feel the seconds slipping through our fingers and realize how little time we have to do things. During my sophomore year of high school I became a bit

Being a comedian and humorist‚ it would be normal for Sedaris to use humor in his stories‚ but he also uses humor in his works for other things such as to give his readers somewhat of a break from the actual seriousness of the situations that he presents us with in the short story “I Like Guys”.
