The Bammer

I didn't get on at ACME on Monday which sucks because 3 of my friends came to see me. They still had a fairly decent time watching the show, though. I think they got angry with me for spending more time with the comics than with them, but the thing is - I don't go to ACME on Mondays to get wasted and watch comedy, I go to try out new stuff, to meet new comics, and to "talk shop" with them about different techniques and things. 2 of my friends got shitfaced *and* high as kites... if anything, it was embarrassing for me. I don't like to associate myself with people who do anything in excess. I steered clear from them on Monday because I prefer their company when they're not under the influence, they're just annoying when they're high and drunk - especially at the same time.

Anyway... I'm going to Chicago this weekend to see Maria Bamford. That is, if I can scrape enough cash together by Friday. I just checked the old bank account and it turns out my landlord is a jerk. Apparently one of his favorite past times is to sit on checks for 2-3 weeks before cashing them, just enough time for his tenants to forget they even wrote him a check...

I tried posting a video with all of Maria Bamford's "TV episodes" from her mom's attic, but Blogspot doesn't approve... here's a link:

The Maria Bamford Show!

Please do check it out, it's quite awesome.

Also, for anyone who's on myspace, I changed my page from a regular one to a comedy page - how exciting! I wasn't sure if it was kosher for me to do that yet or not having not actually been paid for doing comedy yet... but I figure it's been approximately 9 months since I started doing it and about 10 years of wanting to do it - whatever. Here's the link:

My new Myspace page!

Until next time,

The Atomic Car Blomb... yeah, maybe not the best nickname...
