Last night I did a bit of a longer set at The Comedy Studio
and
had so much fun.
The Comedy Studio is in Cambridge by Harvard Square.
I always love going back there because it is one of the clubs I started out at and it was kind of my home away from home when I was in college.
I do longer sets all the time, but it's been while since I've done one there.
I've never bothered to tape myself doing a longer set
because
even though I have been performing since I was a teenager I've always felt VERY uncomfortable whenever I know am being video taped or photographed while I'm performing.
It has always made me not put on as good of a show.
Something about the camera has creeped me out in the past.
Yes, I know that's weird.
But over the last 2 years I think I've started to finally get over that.
It took long enough, huh?
Now I'll just have to get over watching myself after I've taped a show...
I bet within at least 10 years I'll be able to watch footage of myself without cringing ;-)

I have been doing A LOT of writing lately
and
I don't know where it's going.
I've basically written a lot of little things that maybe if I just mixed them together they could be one cool long thing.
I don't want to explain it right now.
But I just thought I should post this to explain why I haven't been posting here so much
or
talking about what I've been doing with comedy.
I just want to see if I can finish this thing first.
That probably doesn't make sense, does it?
Hopefully it will though...

There's a huge bee trapped in my window.
It's either a wasp or a bee(I don't know the difference between the 2).
I tried to take a picture of it but it only comes out as a blur...
This obviously means that it's a killer wasp or bee(I've decided).
If things can't be seen in photos that tells me that they're deadly.
Aren't vampires supposed to be like that?
I think so.
I'm not opening the window because I think it's pissed because it's trapped
and
once I open the window it will fly at me and kill me,
I've seen enough movies to know what's going on and not be a victum.
Also, I don't think it's bee season yet.
Bees aren't supposed to be around yet.
So this bee must be extra pissed because it's in the wrong place
and
by itself.

Hope you all have a nice St. Patrick's Day(if that's your thing).
I'm not at all Irish, and never wear green on that day
but
I do tend to celebrate St. Patrick's Day every year
and
have fun.
I always thought it was weird though
because
I happen to be Greek but I could never imagine there being a day that's super-Greek where I raise glasses of beer at people
and say,
"Everybody is Greek today! C'mon have some drinks!"
or
"Eat some baklava! Your Greek eyes are smiling!!!!"
But I find it perfectly acceptable when someone says to me,
"Everyone is Irish today!"
or
"Why aren't you wearing green today!?".

My latest music obsession is Mika.
I've been listening to him alot.
Check out this clip of him on youtube.
The accoustic versions of his songs are just as good(if not better),
than the club-ier versions.
