this blog is now setting the pace for my comedy rather than the other way around.

for instance, my set tonight was based on my desire, as expressed in recent posts, for normalcy.

i even talked about the vanilla cupcake. (it was funny.)

and i expanded on the blogged-about notions by talking about my feeling that i didn't quite come out at the chisel-jawed, totally erect end of evolution as traditionally pictured.

all in all, it was very satisfying and a significant number of compliments were proffered.

and hey -- this is kind of cool --

there was a guy who'd come all the way from homer, alaska and thought he'd be really exotic in our downtown manhattan realm.

but two of us had actually been to his home town.

so, there were three people in one small east village showroom who had been in the same small town in alaska.

(like i said -- cool.)

after the show, i ventured briefly into the downstairs bar and this girl i'd chatted up the other day looked less than happy to see me.

i wish she'd been upstairs to see my set.
