Okay, I think I’m going to start to slack off on the minute details. Though I made a commitment to doing this blog, the pressure of getting to a computer every day is driving me crazy. Oh well , here goes :
August4 10:45 am -The Flat
So much for getting out and flyering “The Mile” at 10:30. I don’t know what time Calvin, Brian and Andrew returned this morning but they know where the flyers are. I slept straight through to 10 am. I have no structure.
August 5 , 3am -The Flat
Ah , gee, well , tonight was our first show. We managed to get the plastic tubs and the back drop sheets and I got down to the venue to get a big stack of post cards. I got a cheery/apple /almond Chunait- the woman at Piemakers said it was a croissant-they had just spelled it wrong.
Got drenched on the way home, but I was able to time the walk- 30 minutes. Took a nap -Kris was here. Brian, Rain and I walked to the venue for our first show. Rain looked beautiful.
We had 18 people ! I cried, I was so happy . The boys didn’t really get as ferklemt as I did. For the most part , they loved Brian and then they drifted away and then they came back. In the sketches, they loved Andy and then they drifted away but we got them back with Depth Charges. Overall , we felt pretty good. We went to Hennigan’s for Guiness and grub. They have the best bar food here ! I had a BLT that was out of this world. Andy had a baked stuffed potatoe like you read about.
We all parted ways.
I came home and changed.
I met up with Andy at the “Free Beer ” show (They’re ripping off the Walshes !) Every one got a free Fosters .We really wanted to see Eugene Mirman. There were obnoxious drunks in the audience, so the host really had to deal with them, which was a shame, because I bet his real material was brilliant. The show was supposed to start at 11:45, they didn’t let us in until 12:20.
The first comic was Damian Hurst, from Australia- very good. Peter Cain who was good and dark and then Eugene, he was so worth the wait. I was so gad we got to see him. Then we came home and here I am . Goo-Nite.

Hi Dot trying to test this
HOW does this work Arghhhhhh
Ok Now were was I Hey Dottie,
Trying to keep up with your postings, I thought you would like to hear from home. They closed the visitor center bathrooms because more than 50 syringes were found in the system afer the water backed up in the Rangers Station. A Hazmat team had to be called in. We did not want to worry people so we told them one of the seals tried to return to the Aquarium and got stuck in a pipe. it is fine however and is wrapped in a blanket in the Rangers Station till it can be set free again. It is a way more heartwarming story then be careful when ya sit down ya could get stuck… We have sent your check to the Little Sisters of the Poor like you asked. Your mother gave your room to a Romanian exchange student. You can stay with me and Myles if you agree have our baby…. Is this too much info for a blog? Gee I should go…. Keep being glamorous, you are speaking for all Americans over there….
See ya
S
Dotski! I think I figured out how to send you comments here…fingers crossed…..
As I sit here (drinking coffee) at 7am, literally “way down in Loosiana close to New Orleens, way back up in the woods among the evergreens” it CRACKS me UP to read how large the “Quest For Coffee” looms in your present reality. I suspect it’s the jet lag.
This is fun! I hope I did it right…
Hi Dot.
