that time i met matt Mccusker

In honor of recent stand up comedy recs… pulled up to his night in Bridgeport CT (my hometown) by myself strictly as a fan boy, went to the bathroom right before he was supposed to come on and he was standing there in the hallway w the host. He complimented my Jesus hoodie and I dapped him up briefly and swiftly, but knowing he was going on I didn’t stretch the interaction. Came back from the bathroom and he was still there so I asked for a pic, put the Puerto Rico national baseball team hat on him, and told him to stick up his middle finger. Legendary.

Comedy festival awards

Went to a big comedy festival awards ceremony because my work was nominated for two awards (we lost both). Took mouse as my date. We were leaving after it finished and got chatting to our friend on the way out and then out walked Stewart Lee who had won the legend of comedy award. He joined our conversation and we had a lovely time chatting to him. One of the organisers of the festival came over to tell us there was an after party and would we like to come. So anyway we ended up walking to the "after party" which was a pub all the way across town just me, Nancy, festival organiser and Stewart Lee. It took a while for the other comics to filter in but they arrived in dribs and drabs until there was about twelve of us. We spent all night in the pub getting really hammered and talking about art and life and Nick Cave all sat around one table eating crisps. Stewart is an exceptionally lovely man. When he left the pub everyone just burst into laughter like "what just happened!!!". One of my favourite nights ever. A few days later Stewart wrote an article about it. Me and Nancy are the "vibrant local artists": https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2022/apr/03/eat-your-heart-out-will-smith-i-certainly-did-oscars-chris-rock

quoting the x-files

I’ve started quoting this character Chuck from an X-Files ep (“Elegy”) who gets caught in an innocent lie: “I’m just a human being, after all!”

Getting dumped for no good reason

Underrated because this teaches you that sometimes relationships won’t work for reasons that have nothing to do with you. Keep it moving

Moving to minneapolis from a coastal city

I moved from Los Angeles to Minneapolis last summer, and it‘s one of the best decisions I‘ve ever made. My husband is from here so I got to know it on visits to see family. There‘s art, good food, and houses half the price of comps in LA. Life is way more convenient (even with the snow). It actually does take 20 minutes max to get across town, unlike the woefully inaccurate LA in Clueless. Plus, Minnesota is slated to be a climate haven in the near future.
