A guest set and then some

Thursday night, I got off of work early and so I headed to Westport to catch Rahn Ramey at the Funny Bone. Jeremy Essig was featuring, and Rahn asked if I wanted to do a guest spot. I said I would; and then Matt told me I would be hosting. I asked Jeremy to watch my set, and he said he would. My set went well, and while talking to Jeremy we discussed my Black Name joke and how in a seven minute set there might not be enough time to recover should the audience not appreciate it (which somewhat happened during my set). He did say that my energy was good on stage, which I hope means I didn't look nervous or uncollected (not collected? is that right?). Anyway after the show, Rahn gave me one of his DVDs (that I edited and designed a cover for), thanked me and said he would pay me at the end of the week. I'm really glad that he likes the finished product.
