Holy Caramel-Crapping Ice-Cream Cone, Batman!

Yeah, you'd think after being silent for about a month or so that I would have something to blog about. But I don't. I just need to touch base with Brian--the only person who reads my blog. And Vida, who needs something to do while her dogs grunt on the floor. I thank God for the two of you. It makes me feel like someone wants to listen to a damn thing I have to say.

So let's see, what the hell have I been up to lately. First off, there is the show, "Sit-Down" the new solo Frankenstein that I have written, that actually did a lot better than I could have expected for less than a month of working on something. For one, the show is closing tomorrow, and I have definitely created something kickass. It is a work that I feel actually does say something... combines my efforts as a stand-up, a writer, a thinker, poet, performer, believer, etc. It is a real challenge do to... do get any kind of precision in something so free-form... to stare down an inquisitive and judging audience night after night.... insane...

Sit-Down

I don't know why I have tried to post this eleventybillion times and it won't stay on my blog. The man is trying to keep the word down about my new show. Though, if I am so worried about succumbing to the man, why do I have a blog?

Questions, Questions. Find the answers very soon.
