But at least I had 2 government holidays

Interesting week for your favorite struggling comic.

Sunday – went out for a drink or 8 with some co-workers to celebrate the completion of the NYC marathon of a few of my co-workers who ran it.

Monday – went out for a drink or 8 with some co-workers to celebrate the completion of the NYC marathon of a few of my co-workers who ran it. The only difference was that I also lost a trial that day, making Monday slightly worse.

Tuesday – had off from work. Did my civic duty and voted. I felt like I was at Church. I was the only person under 50 without kids.

Wednesday – I went to the Utah Jazz vs. NJ Nets game. Great time and great game even though the Jazz lost. I cheered just enough to scare the little Nets fans sitting around me. The third best thing about the game was Boney James – the “cool cat” who played sax at the game. I asked myself, man your career must be in trouble if you are playing the sax at a Nets hafltime. But he was not bad, so said my guest who was a Jazz fan (the musical kind, not hoops). And if I could perform comedy at halftime of a Nets game I would probably be happy. Wednesday was a good day, but the calm before the storm.

Thursday – I performed a 12 minute set at a bar downtown. In front of 2 audience members. There were 5 comics and 2 audience members. I almost decided to pick up a drug addiction after the show just to see if my comedy career could get any worse.

But Friday is a new day and I offer the following bits of hope for my comedy fan(s):

1) Me and three of my comedian friends are very close to picking a spot for our twice a month show. May starts shows as early as December in midtown Manhattan. Stay tuned

2) My CD is going to have a huge Holiday price drop – please tell your friends to check in or buy it as a cheap present for your family and friends

3) Steeler game on Sunday in Pittsburgh with my brother. If anything it will at least provide a blog and new photos.
