Doing this life

I may or may not suck at being a blogger. I'm not sure. Sometimes I'm like it's this thing I should do. Maybe I should blog today. Maybe I haven't quite figured out what the deal is with my blog yet. What's it about, what's its style? Is it about mapping my journey through comedy? Is it just written comedy? Is it socially analyzing the constructs and implications of comedy? It, like everything else I've ever known is having identity issues. But it is just going to have to deal with that and realize it doesn't always need to be understood. It should just rest easy knowing that it has something to do with comedy and realistically, it's just a way for me to avoid cleaning my room and nobody likes to read anymore anyway.
Well, I've been doing fine at making sure that I'm practicing comedy regularly. Stickin' to my at least two times a week rule. Last week I performed for open mic night at the Cobra Lounge, a hookah club in Bellingham whose slogan is: "The Cobra Lounge is Not a Crime." When I got there, there was a young white male rapper who I believe had the lyric: "I wanna smoke my weed from inside you girl." God bless his soul. God bless this town. I paid five dollars for a membership and need the stage time so I will be there every Tuesday.
Last weekend I went down to Seattle to have a "comedy rager weekend." This means I drank way too much, smoked too much weed, and made bad decisions (sex with man on friend's futon =/ YIKES WHATEVER) but with the overall intent of doing and watching comedy. It was pretty great minus the terrrible hangover. No more drinking. I'm cereal. BUT YEAH, I got to see one of my most favorite comics Hari Kondabolu! He is a great comic and I think will be taping his Comedy Central Special this weeek! So excited. Let me know if you have cable so I can watch that. Anywho, I also went ahead and did the open mic while I was down there which was good fun except there was this one dude who's whole set was an odd anti circumcision lecture that started off with "Who here knows what suction is?" Oh foreskin.
OH I AM excited to say that I am working on a couple of film projects...
I AM ALSO working on some merchandise including an activity book full of mad libs and crosswords.
LASTLY I AM starting up a comic group with some guys at Western called
Stand Up Comedy Klub (SUCK).
okay.
