Why blog the good stuff?

Well things have been going pretty well in comedy and poker. Sunday I went out for one of my buddies birthdays. I was kind of shocked it was just me and one girl that made it out. He has a lot of friends, so I didn't get why no one else was there. He got a little drunk and was telling me how it was his best birthday in a long time. Kind of sad. As much as I think I've had trouble meeting friends and finding good people out here, I know I've had good birthdays before. Looking back to my last few birthdays I don't think I've done anything. I know 2 years ago I just went out with a girl I was dating. I remember because we went to the grocery store, and all we bought was condoms, a bottle of jager, and gum. It was interesting. Last year I don't even recall what I did. I know I worked, and then I think I went out with a few people who weren't really my friends and got drunk early. So I guess basically birthdays are over rated and guys don't really care.
Anyways I advanced to the finals of San Diego's funniest contest. It was cool, I got first again. I had 2 people there to support me. I didn't really tell anyone as I gambled and hoped I could advance without. I felt I had a pretty solid set, there was about one miny joke that didn't go well but overall I think I did well. I am promoting hard for the finals and I will find out how many true friends I have. I have a lot of shows and really ask people to come, I'm hoping people will realize how much this could do for me and will show up.
Tuesday I hosted the new material night at the Palace. I filled in for a dude, and kind of wish I declined. It was kind of boring and I should have played poker. I know I can't expect to make money from doing shows but hosting is kind of a lot of work. You have to constantly go up and keep the show on time. I would have liked to have been offered a beer or something. Winston's may not be the best room or best audience but we at least take care of the people that help make the show.
Anyways poker is good. I've made money both days I've played. I think I may go play now, haven't decided. I should have made more money on Wednesday. I made what turned out to be a bad call and played a little loose for the next 30 minutes or so and lost around 200$. I have to fix that pride aspect to make myself a better player.
