Yesterday I was super busy at work, and so I didn't get a chance to blog about Tuesday at the Funnybone, but I wasn't on and I'm kind of out of it, so I don't remember much about it. Buzz Sutherland hosted, and the crowd was kind of flat throughout the entire show. I would have liked to get on, but I always would like to get on stage...
Last night I went to the Landing. The Landing's comedy atmosphere is very weird to me; somethings are funny there that aren't funny anywhere else, and things that are funny other places fall flat there. It's like like another dimension; but having recognized that, I've decided to exploit it as much as possible. Last night I got on stage and just talked. I like doing that at the Landing. It's like therapy, I really get to open up and talk about myself, and occassionally I'll throw in an existing joke if it relates. Last night I talked about my plans for New Years Eve and how boring/crappy it (they?) was (were?). Later, a bunch of people said that it was really funny. I didn't see it at the time, but I'm starting to see that when people know and can relate to me, they'll see the humor in the tragic things that happen to me. That's 100% what I want to do; have people laugh at me because they feel close enough to me to be comfortable doing so. That and make lots of moneyin the process.
For New Years this year I went to a party with my buddy, Leroy. At the party, there were about 8 other dudes, all Leroy's coworkers from Sams club. So I didn't know anyone there really. There were also 2 whole females (Sausage party). Add to that the Ultimate Fighting Championship marathon on Spike TV and you've got a recipe for me falling off the wagon. The highlight of my evening was when the guitars got busted out and everyone got to play their favorite Green Day song. Badly. This New Year's party was not even close to the fun I used to have when I drank; granted I don't remember any of those nights, but they had to have been fun, right?
La la la la la la, la la la la la
If you want to tell me something about my blog, you could either make fun of me on stage at Laughs on the Landing like everyone else or you could email me.
