Well had a couple mini shows last night. First 3 minutes at the Comedy Store. There was literally 0 audience members when the show started. I was scheduled to go 6th. Well first guy went, then the next 3 people weren't even there. Finally a couple people showed up, one of the buds went up then me. There was prolly 12 people in the crowd at this point. I called out one of the comics that wasn't there then worked on some new jokes. 3 were completely new. I was a little uncomfortable and they were shakey upon delievery. They didn't do real well, but I think there is something there.
Then I went to the gym, and finally Blarney. It's crazy how crappy of a room this is, but how much I enjoy doing it. Last night was kind of rough as there was very few people sitting down. Usually there's at least 2 or 3 audience tables. But there was only one, and my friend went up before me and kind of already spoke to them. There was one drunk dude, but there's only so much you can do with him. I was trying an awkward character. It went decent overall. Not the overall consistent laughs I've been getting in past weeks, but decent overall.
I left slightly after my set. I did send out 4 emails to clubs in Seattle for my friend and I. I really want to start getting out there and telling jokes to bigger shows. I might as well try to book myself. Also, my honesty in the blog has cost me my first show. I always kinda suspected that it might stop me from being on shows, but I actually got taken off a show because of what I've said in the blog. I don't agree with the reasoning, esp. considering I'm just being honest and nothing I said was out of line. If the booker spoke to anyone that has done the show, and got an honest answer it would be exactly what I said. But ass kissing and being fake is crutial to making it in comedy. I'm not changing the blog, or who I am.
As far as the title, looks like life with the lady are done. I literally have no idea what happened. Usually I have a feeling or understanding but this one is a total mystery. I mean we started off hitting it off, then she got busy with her birthday and what not which is fine, but now she's not returning my calls. It's really strange, and after a week or so I may ask why. Only thing I can guess is she took some of my comments seriously, and may think I'm a creeper or what not. I'm quite far from that. Who knows, she prolly assumes I'm poor and a loser as I dress like a bumb and work at home depot. Standard San Diego shallow.
