lizzie_and_ariHey guys.
I did it. I was going to not do it because Ari was at the dentist and didn't come back til late and I had work responsibilities and felt like crap, because Ari had been at work al day, hence I;d been stressed about working and hence hadn't eaten.
So I couldn't get in touch to cancel. So I just wasn't gonna go, then I gt everything sorted, and then I went. I lost my comedy virginity. No-one can ever again say:
'Ah, well, I've never actually seen this first chick myself, but she's great. She's toured the world and...ah, fuck, this is her first gig. This is her first gig so youse had better be nice.'
I didn't suck. I didn't kick donkey booty, but I didn't suck. I missed out half y set, talked at approx. 1000000 wpm, but I did it. There were nine people TOTAL in the audience and there were 2 laughs during my set. But that's 2 more than the MC got, so... I could see only one woman and she at least was smiling. One of the promoter guys came up after and said cool, was that really your first gig, you did well. Then a crazy old poofter came up to me at the bar and said 'hey, I've got a funny story for you' and I felt like a real comedian.
Now I might be ready to book myself in for some gigs at Dockside. God, don't you just love being the act booker at a major comedy venue!
Love yous all immensely (oh, I may have got a little drunk for the gig.
Hic.
