So my sister is in town. It's nice to see her. It's very weird how it feels were so distant. I guess it makes sense as were 5 years apart. But the first night she kept thanking me for letting them stay there etc. It's like you're my sister obviously you can stay here.
Sunday was a decent show day. Comedy Store was ok nothing much to report. Stuck to my jokes, did mostly older grammer jokes. I felt I stuck to the script and didn't veer off track. It's funny how my crowd personality has taken over even the comedy store. Claps at the wrong time, or sighs can really add to a show. I of course won't make noise during people's set's I don't know but it's fun messing with my friends. I've noticed other comics doing it, and it makes for a much more enjoyable show.
Blareny was typical Blarney. Decent turnout and they were paying attention. I may have chatted a little too much offstage but did apologize after. Funny there was a girl there that I have been talking to off and on but never actually hung out with. I sat next to her for a solid 10 minutes, and she didn't say a word to me. She is the strangest human I've ever met. She really comes across like she thinks she's better than me. And truly there's nothing that special about her. My set went well, lot of chatting and whatnot.
Monday was really fun at the competition. It was lighthearted and the crowd was somewhat receptive. Little more packed than last time, made a few dollars. My set was still eh. It's just so weird going up after judging and whatnot. The crowd doesn't know whether to laugh or leave. No one is really promoting hard so it seems it's a nice balance of funny ruling who moves on. There was a guy that went up for his first time, and it was painful to watch. I think I may have been awkward on stage but I at least had jokes and a point for being up there. So people are just lonely. The guy I run the show with was a little drunk, and was complimenting how I run the shows and whatnot. I always feel weird when people are nice to me.
Last night was pretty awful. Show was supposed to start at 9, didn't start until 10. There was maybe 20 spread out people there. I was sandwiched between a comic who talked about fingering a gal for the first time, and a comic that spoke for 8 minutes about whacking off. I tried my clean approach as my sister was in the crowd. I may have been slightly offensive to a few of the people I spoke to. Not sure I ever had the crowd, but being quite sleepy and not wanting to go down the dirty road affected me a little bit. Had a few people compliment me randomly so that was nice. My friend said I looked nervous and censored myself a little bit. Who knows, I just didn't bring my A game.
