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 …
Don’t let NY make you tired, Miss
The words of a cab driver extracting me from the wrong street. I swear I'd get lost in a tin can. I walked to the building where MORE Magazine is located. It's right next door to the Empire State Building! So I ate lunch there. What an Art Deco spectacular site that is. I did …
Miss Kane? They said you don’t know where you are.
After a nice, long flight, I get to JFK where "a car" will be waiting for me. So I'm thinking I'll impress all the airplane people when a driver is waiting with great anticipation that he's picking up somebody famous - wah waaah! Except 20 drivers are trying to pick people up. Wow, so many …

Barns make your butt look smaller
So do really big pumpkins. Just got done performing three times this weekend - one at a fundraising dinner for the Garden of Wonders program at my kids' school. Then, we packed it up and bolted to Oceanside for the rest of the weekend. My kids fought over who would get the bunk bed while …
