A Whaler of a Show

I performed tonight at The Whaler near the beach, and I KILLED. Finally! I've been doing a lot of new material and playing shows with almost no people in them. That's all comedian excuses for having pretty mediocre sets. So I did very few new jokes, gave myself plenty of time to get there, and had an awesome set. The host Christy was really cool and invited me back. It was odd that the show was run by a female stand-up comic (named Christy, too), but I was the only other girl on the show. It was like I was in Florida again. Thanks to my good friend and funny comic, Brett Gilbert, for recommending me for the gig. Yay Brett. My stuff that I have in one of those moving storage thingys will be delivered to my new apartment on the 7th. In the meantime I'll just use a blow-up mattress. I'm bringing my laundry and artwork over to the new place tomorrow. :)

More Funny Songs

I'm working on material for a record of funny songs. I think it will be fun to do. I call this comedy song, "My Passive Aggressive Friend's Thinly-Veiled Hostility Makes Me Nervous."



I'm really enjoying writing songs. I want to write and release the record in time for the holidays. I'm going to include several funny x-mas songs, too. Well as soon as I write them. These are just the rough drafts of these songs, but I figured I'd let the nearly dozens of my "fans" know what I've been up to. Oh, and I found a new apartment. It's so small, but totally awesome--just like the group of people reading my blog. Small, but awesome.

Silly Funny Song - Long Term Girlfriend

I was a violinist from nine until about 22 years old. I gave it up for comedy. Now I'm going to celebrate the YEARS I spent studying classical music and all the music theory I learned in college by completely chucking all that classical snooty stuff out the window and writing an entire album of stupid funny songs while playing the guitar very badly.
