New year
Well its a new year and a new God damn start. This last year has been a steady decline in motivation and i really have to turn things around. I've been going out the last 3 nights in a row and feel good a out that, even though in only got up 1 time. Its still better than nothing, and nothing has been all that's going on for me these last couple months. Also me and Megan gotta move this month so thats a little stressful but in sure it'll work out. Anyways sorry for lack of updates lately but it coincided with my lack of trying. I'll be updating this more often this year. I hope.

Geeky Teas
Tonight I went to a new open mic down the street at a board game and tea store called geeky teas. It was very portlandy. Great room, the audience was mostly comics but they were cool. And best of all, I had a good set! Fun spot, will def come here often!

Golden Hour Comedy
Last night in went out to a show called Golden Hour, hosted by Simon Gibson and MK Paulsen, two great people. The show is outside at a coffee shop with a wonderful and vibrant graffiti wall backdrop, very cool looking. Lights are strung up high, and it has a real nice Portland show vibe to it.
I didn't even perform I just went to get out because i've def been in a mental rut for the last couple months as things haven't quite gone as planned. I found myself staying in most night and rarely even going out but I think I'm out of it now. I haven't updated my website, podcast, blog, or even made a post on Facebook in months so yeah...things were not great for me mentally.
The show was great btw. Simon and Mk and everyone else killed. This one dude had a joke about Willie Nelson's sweet voice that was so funny I was crying.
Also it was Megan's birthday on Saturday. I got her cool shit, we went out for fancy Italian food and then saw the Bohemian Rhapsody movie. I fucking loved it. That movie is fantastic for real.
Anyways this post is long enough, hopefully I'll get back in the swing of it and update things more often, stay tuned!

Set List

Improv
A couple nights ago in was on a great Showcase at the Hollywood Improv! Show was really fun and its been a few months since I've done 10 minutes so that was refreshing. It was a great lineup with preacher Lawson, James adomian, Eric Andre, and more! My set was good and I really felt recharged for comedy.
The last couple months have been slow, hence to no updates to my blog but now I'm determined to make this comedy work. I'll update again sooner then later.
