So here's a lesson: You really shouldn't dump coffee in your computer. I didn't mean to, but I knocked a jet of coffee across my desk right on the keyboard. (Yes, it was caffeinated, you smart-a's.) So anyway, I'm back in Mac. It took me all night to just get caught up on email. NOW, …
Fantastic performances last night
Moms ROCK! The audience packed the house at Curious Comedy Theater for TIME OUT: "Guess Who's Messing Up Dinner" Tales of Holidays Gone Awry last night. First-time performer Nicole McKinney blew the doors off. Seasoned mom performers rocked it out too: Wendy Bax, Jillian Starr (No, you weren't too blue.), Kristina Martin, Debby Dodds and …

On Mamapalooza’s radio show
What a blast it was being on Joy of Mamapalooza's "Don't Tell Me to Shut Up" radio show with NY comedy legend Nancy Lombardo. We also hooked up with amazing musician Tracy Newman (yup, Lorraine Newman's sister). She wrote a song about her sister Lorraine that made me teary realizing there are actually siblings who …
Back in slack
Back to Portland, ya'll. Off the plane and straight into Halloween. We were the Simpsons except for Steven, Mister Halloween Buzz Kill. He went as Darth Vader. We tried to talk him into being "Bart"Vader, but noo! Brian rigged this Marge Simpson hair up for me made from a bath matt (will add photo later). …
A day off!
Well, if it wasn't for a mix up in communication, I wouldn't have had a whole day off. NY comedy legend Nancy Lombardo hooked me up with a workshop and open mic at NY Comedy Club. But it's for tomorrow when I'm supposed to be on da plane. Just wait until all you comedy moms …
THE Day
Yesterday might just ring in as the wildest day in history for me. I showed up at my call time at Comix a little early at 8:45. Finished me soy latte and started the non-stop day. Hair, make up, Spanx, more hair, make up on my face, make up on my legs. Big retro broach, …
Cougar loose in NY
It's raining, it's pouring, the Cougars are preying. So I hooked up with my friend Mandy (she's a comic from London who shared equal disaster with me at open mic night last night). For the second time, I see firefighters up close. Check it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m91Qxl6gmV0 People in NY wear rubber boots (I said boots, you …
Okay, NY. NOW I’m tired.
So I went to open mic and Comix thinking it would be different than all other open mics. (SFX: Buzzer) The place was packed with all comics. One other first-timer like me also died painful comedy deaths. At the end, the comics but were nice to us. Kind of like Officer and a Gentleman, I …
