w00t

Thursday was my first visit to Laughs on the landing in a couple of weeks, so I was really excited to get on stage there, especially since I had a new joke or two I wanted to try out. The crowd was kind of weird, and some people talked through a bit of my set, but I had a chance to shut them up without cussing, which I thought was good experience,
I've been writing about my high school experiences lately (I lived in an all male religious boarding school, and I tried out a couple of things. I also tried a new bit about my mom passing away from colon cancer. It's a very touchy subject, and I'm not entirely sure my family would approve, but I'm not being a jerk in the joke; or at least I don't think I am. Those people talked through the setup, so I didn't get any reaction at all... but I didn't get groans ot boos, so I consider that a bonus of sorts.
Anyway, the show was alright, and we had a bunch of new/fresh(?) comedians. Also, I got booked for next weekend (the 17th and 18th) there hosting. I'm excited; it should be a pretty good time.
