Shooby dooby dooooooo. I’m feeling great today. It’s a far cry from where I was just a few days ago, because I was nottttttt doing well. I knew that moving to a new city on my own, not knowing anyone here, and pursuing stand-up comedy would provide me with challenges, I just wasn’t sure exactly … Continue reading Managing Comedy and Mental Health

My Tragic Love Story
Weeeeeeeeeeeee. I had the most amazing set last night. It wasn’t all roses before that, though. It was actually no roses. The day was pretty awful before that. What do they say, though? It’s always darkest before the dawn? I guess I have to share my tragic love story for some background. Before the pandemic … Continue reading My Tragic Love Story
Marriage and Relationships
I’m at a cafe staring at a post next to this table. A bunch of people have written all over it. Most of them are couples. Kyle and Natasha, J and J, Josh and Tiff 4ever. Then you have everything else, from “poppin’ pussies 4 life,” to “you are loved.” I think the main message … Continue reading Marriage and Relationships
Getting Weird and Finding My Crowd
Holy smokes do I love Austin. It’s only been a few weeks, but I feel completely at home here. I came here not knowing a single person, but I’ve already made so many friends and met so many interesting people. I was invited to the most incredible gathering this past weekend by a new friend. … Continue reading Getting Weird and Finding My Crowd
Open Mics and Meeting Friends
Where am I? What is happening? Whose chair is that? What a whirlwind of a week it has been. I tell you what, I tell you whatttttt. I went to four open mics last week in three days and totally burned myself out. That and having too much caffeine. I'm super sensitive to caffeine and … Continue reading Open Mics and Meeting Friends
Open Mic Comedy
What a thing it is. Comedy of the open mic variety. I went to my first open mic since moving to Austin last night, and it was a lot of things: Fun, interesting, weird... all of it. I arrived early to see that I was going up last, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping … Continue reading Open Mic Comedy

Mango Smoothie
Holy Mexican Moses with a monkey for a mouth I need to clean my computer. Disgusting. How do I live with myself? I don't know if it's a male thing or I'm just a bit of slob but sometimes things have to get obscenely dirty for me to even notice. I ordered a mango smoothie … Continue reading Mango Smoothie
Finding Meaning and Purpose, and How We are All Slaves to Money
Weeeeeeeeeee I'm here! And it feels so goooooood. I will be honest, I was not feeling good my first few days here. I was physically exhausted from my trip and emotionally exhausted from going through all sorts of stuff. Apparently it's my Saturn return. I've never had the time to get too into astrology but … Continue reading Finding Meaning and Purpose, and How We are All Slaves to Money
Denver/Albuquerque/Austin
Well. This journey is coming to a close, as I sit here in my hotel room in the middle of Texas with an Otis Spunkmeyer muffin by my side. What a name. Otis Spunkmeyer. I haven't written any posts in about a week or so, and that's just fine and dandy. I love sharing my … Continue reading Denver/Albuquerque/Austin
