Taking the stage with me hubby, Brian, tonight at TIME OUT: Dad's Revenge...and Moms Too. We've got two brand new moms taking the stage: Mary Slocum and Marykay Hoenstine; wine-wielding comic Ruthann Lentz; returning hilarious dads Brian Sturkie (my man!), Mark Hylland (my BFF's man) and the always funny Jim Turner. Join us at Curious …
Talk about multi-tasking
Just got back from Redmond, Washington, where we saw Steve Martin at an outdoor concert at the exquisite Chateau Ste. Michelle. Steve Martin was fantastically funny as always, leaving me wondering: How much comedy does he still write? He's such a pro and a screaming banjo machine. My favorite songs were about a kid who …
Thanks, Rose Festival! We had a blast
We performed, we marched, we watched sailors. The Rose Festival was an absolute blast. We appreciate the opportunity to take the stage at the Waterfront, get interviewed for a radio station and participate in the Starlight and Jr. Rose Parade. Thanks, Rich and Peter for giving us a shot. Hope we get to come back …
Ready for Rose Festival tonight
It's the age-old question: Wetsuit or no wetsuit? If I don't wear a wetsuit to the Rose Festival, it will surely rain. If I do wear a wetsuit, maybe it won't rain. Last Friday, I not only wore the wetsuit on stage, but out to Rock Bottom pub and NO ONE noticed. The place was …

Come again another day. We mean it.
I'm starting to whine like a native Oregonian. Come on now, the Junior Rose Festival Parade is today. We've gathered up a pack of kids who will be carrying a TIME OUT comedy banner. We've got candy to hand out. Don't make me wear a wetsuit again. It is slimming though. I wish all my …
Who’s the best parent ever? You are
Not that this story is the worst childhood tale ever told, but it will make you feel better about your parenting. Hold onto your seats as I take you on a high-speed chase. I double-dog dare you to show up tonight and see for yourself. I triple-dog dare you to show up wearing frosted lip …
TIME OUT takes on Rose Festival

Better the stall than the mall
Performing at "Rave in the Nave" was a complete blast this weekend. My name made it to the bathroom stall WITHOUT any diagrams or descriptive terms. Just like a mom I knew in Atlanta said: "Better the stall than the mall, honey." She was actually talking about a horse stall, but this reference still works. …
“Rave” in the rain tonight
It's raining, it's pouring...the kids are going batty! Find sanity through comedy tonight - the TIME OUT moms are performing at "Rave in the Nave" at Christ United Methodist Church. There will be cookies at intermission and wildly funny mom comedians taking the stage. It will be toasty in there and loads of fun. Hope …
