How big? You (and I've received confirmation that you do, in fact, exist, which is very exciting to me. The leap from zero readers to one is, mathematically speaking, infinite, so that's big news right there.) are about to find out.
I won second place in the Battle of the Bay (BOTB), and it feels pretty good! That's right, I'm the Adam Lambert/Susan Doyle (or is it Boyle) of comedy, what do you think of that?
I became a member of the newly formed "The Stand-Up Project," which is awesome. I'm sure I'll be writing about that later, but basically it's a group of SFCC comedians who are all trying to move into becoming professionals (at comedy). I don't know what to expect, except (Anagrams!) that I'll be immersing myself more fully into comedy.
When I did the BOTB I did a twelve minute set, which was the longest set I've ever done, until three days later when I performed at the El Rio for over fifteen minutes! It wasn't my best set, because I kinda petered out at the end, and I didn't leave myself with a good closer; but it also wasn't my worst, and I got a chance to get a feel for how a longer set needs to have a different sort of structure.
Then last night at Asia one of our customers introduced herself to me as someone who seen me at the El Rio, and was inspired to go to there because I had mentioned it on stage. She didn't say she went to see me, but it was still pretty cool. And my announcing at Asia has gotten a lot looser and (I think) better, which is a direct reflection of doing Stand-up.

Well, I probably should have spent that time updating the "Upcoming Shows" thing to the left, or working on material for those shows, but I didn't because I wanted to share some excitement with you (who exists).

I'm creating a post filled entirely with words. Not too many words, probably, but that's okay. I just wanted to throw something up here so you can tell I'm literate. Although you (if you exist) wouldn't necessarily be convinced by a little bit of writing with my name attached. For all you know this is really Cynthia, my personal assistant, who is writing this.
What I really should be working on is getting my "Shows in which I'll be" updated. If you look to the left, and the latest show listed is 'A Funny Night for Comedy' then I really need to get on the ball. Or Cynthia does.
Speaking of my monthly show which is produced by me that I run, I have been getting a lot of requests to be in the show, both by strangers and friends. It's kinda cool, but also a little stressful, because I have more requests than spaces in the next three shows combined and I hate telling people things I think they don't wanna hear. I can fit more people if I give everyone less time, but I'd really rather have fewer people do longer sets.
I was also thinking of adding an open-mic to the show, but that would have to start at either 5:00, which feels too early, or 9:00, which is an okay time but would be anti-climactic and in direct competition with the Punchline.
What do you (if you exist) think? Maybe I should talk to Cynthia about this.

I know that posts concerning show dates aren't in chronological order by when they will happen, but when I happened to confirm the fact that they are happening, which I guess is kinda confusing.
But if you move your eyes to the left slightly, you should find a nice list of all the shows I've got planned, and they are ordered the way you'd expect (if you exist).
You're welcome.

I just found out I'll be doing Naked Comedy again! yea! More info to be had and tickets to be bought can be found here.
