I forgot one other book I read the other day when I was sicker than a black dog:

Things My Girlfriend and I Have Argued About, by Mil Millington.

In case you haven't seen his site, Mil has the scariest girlfriend on earth. I only say scariest, and not second scariest, because I am now married to the previous recordholder, who obviously doesn't know about this blog. Go read the site, and you'll have some idea about why this book is worth reading.

In a word, it's the funniest thing on earth. I'm not sure why I said,"In a word," there, except as sort of a "hey, I'm going to express an opinion or relate a fact here." So, just pretend I said that if my verbal inutility offends you.

The nice thing about the book, in relation to the site, is that Mil doesn't fall into the same trap that David Sedaris does. You won't find any anecdotal overlap between the site and the book -- there are new stories for tooth-grinding glee, hung on a very thin but comic thriller plot. I guarantee a few of his phrases will find their way out of your mouth or your keyboard in the weeks after reading.
