There Went The Neighborhood

This was seriously one of the best nights ever.  The crowd at Punch Line was amazing. I met some new friends, and got to meet some social media friends in person.  Thank you so much to everyone who came out.  I love you all.

Thank you to Shana Shafer and Jimmy Earl for putting this all together.  Thanks to Adam Reyes, Sydney Stigerts, Aivy Cordova, Al Shuman, Willie Travis, Ed Mena, Frank the Tank, Joey C, and G King for making tonight so fun.  Thank you to Punch Line for having us. 

I need to sleep.  See you guys in the morning. 

There Goes The Neighborhood

Good morning! 

If you haven’t already hit me up to get on tonight’s guest list for Punch Line, I have a very limited number of tickets left.  Contact me if you want me to get you one before the show tonight.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there.  I will see you guys tonight, either physically or virtually. 

Paloma Time

Evening, all.  I’m enjoying a pineapple Paloma and gearing up for There Goes the Neighborhood tomorrow. 

I had a fun day hanging out with Eddie and his dog, but it’s nice to relax for a bit.  I’ll see you guys in the morning.

Missing Pink

Good morning.  I was planning on going to the More Than Pink Walk this morning, but my allergies are off the hook.  

I’m actually glad to have a day with not much planned.  I’m visiting Eddie’s dog, and being a lazy bum the rest of the day.  Oh yeah, and I should go to the gym at some point.  Meh.

Alright, time to start being productive.  Oh, and if you wanted to get on my guest list for There Goes the Neighborhood, I’m submitting it to Shana RIGHT NOW.  Either message me extremely quickly, or I’ll find a way to get you some tickets. 

See you guys tonight. 

The Hard Place

Good evening!  Episode 1 from Token Male dropped today.

I'm super excited to see Episode 2 later this weekend.  Many thanks to Rhoda, and to all of the lovely ladies and gentlemen who made this happen.

Today has been A DAY, so I'm gonna play some Night Shift and read.  See you guys in the morning before I head out to the More Than Pink walk.

Frankie Valli Would Be Appalled

Good morning. 

Seasons are fine.  Sitting in insane traffic while waiting to pass through chain control is what I can’t stand. 

Yay, it’s Friday.  I’m picking up my packet for Race for the Cure (or whatever it’s called this year) after work, then introverting for a bit.  See you guys later. 

Neighborhood Watch

Good evening! 

Yay, my “headshot” and bio are up for There Goes the Neighborhood!  If you haven’t already, hit me up to get on the free guestlist. 

Alright gang, imma play some Night Shift and read The Monkey Wrench Gang.  See you in the morning. 

Make That Money

Good morning.  It will be nice to get back to a normal sleep schedule. 

This is possibly the most vague, noncommittal thing I have ever read. 

Alright, back to work.  See you guys later. 

Reading N Stuff

Good evening.

I’ve been doing a lot of reading these past few days.  Jessica and I are reading Noir.  I’m about to start The Monkey Wrench Gang at the recommendation of Jason B.  The book with most of my attention right now is Into the Darkest Corner.  Erin suggested it to me.  It’s an amazing book, but it’s also been bringing up some stuff that I’ve tried really hard to forget.   

Night Shift just got real.  If you haven’t started playing yet, I highly recommend scrolling down a few posts for the link.  Thanks again to Rich Crawford for letting me beta-test.  

I need to introvert for a little while.  I’ll see you guys in the morning. 

I’m Not Going To Ask Why You Think I Need This

This is a message that you don’t want to wake up to.

On that note, I’m going to eat and go back to bed.  See you guys tonight.

Comedy Is Hard, But Concrete Is Harder

Evening, all.  Token Male Pt 2 was awesome.  I’m super psyched to see the finished product.

Because apparently I can’t even walk normally, I fell and ate it outside St. Stan’s.  I have two skinned knees and two skinned palms.  And gravel in my eye.  And also somehow gravel in my underwear.   

Thank you to Rhoda again for organizing Token Male.  Thank you to Felicia Aleman for giving me time at open mic tonight.  Last of all, thanks to Serena Gamboa, Taylor Evans and Andre Morton for being rad costars. 

I think I pulled a muscle in my back trying not to fall, so I’m going to bed.  See you guys in the morning. 

I Prefer Paper Or Scissors

Good morning! 

...no thanks. 

Alright, I’m getting some errands done and meeting Shana for breakfast before round two of Token Male.  See you guys tonight.

Token Male

Ladies and gents, Token Male Sketch has completed day one of shooting. 

We’ll be heading down to Modesto tomorrow for day two.  Many thanks to Rhoda D. Ramone for organizing all this, to Kayla Velasquez for directing/filming, and to Diana Hong and Kristen Frisk Christensen for being amazing costars.  

Oh, and thanks to the life-size Justin Bieber cut-out for serving as our creepy prop. 

Alright, sleep time.  See you guys in the morning. 

Sketchy

Good morning!

This is a super cool policy I saw on the wall at Press Club.  Also, there is some pretty rad graffiti in that bathroom.

I need to memorize some lines, because I am filming sketch comedy with Rhoda D. Ramone and some other lovely ladies today and tomorrow.  I’m super excited, and grateful that Rhoda is including me.  I’ll post links once the videos are up next weekend. 

Oh, and There Goes the Neighborhood is on Sunday!  Hit me up if you want on the free  guestlist.

Alright, I need to be productive.  See you guys tonight. 

I Think I’m Delirious

Good evening.  I had a fun night out with Eddie.  It’s been a long time since I’ve been out this late on Sunday.  Can’t say I feel like I’ve been missing anything.

I’m in a weird frame of mind.  In general, the encounters I’ve had with men over the last 6+ months (actually, more) have not been good.  It’s something that weighs on my mind a lot.  At least more than I would like.  

I think I need to take a break from actively dating for a while.  It’s been a really long time since I’ve felt a connection with a guy anyway, and I have some lingering emotions that I need to work through.  It’s also a good time to free up extra energy since I’m picking up a lot of side projects.

I need to sleep.  I’ll see you guys in the morning. 

At Least Someone Does

Good morning!

Well, that escalated quickly. 

I’m getting dinner with my friend Diana, then Eddie and I are doing...something.  See you guys later tonight. 

Cinco De Drinko

Good evening.  Eddie was gracious enough to DD for me tonight.  It’s always awkward hanging out with an ex when people ask how long we’ve been together, and I’m like...negative one year?

It was a fun night.  I ate a lot of Mexican food and mixed my liquors.  I saw a guy riding a horse while brandishing a lightsaber.  I got to see some of my old friends at the usual bar.   

A lot of new ventures are starting next week.  I’m excited, and a little nervous...but who am I if I’m not pushing myself to improve and grow as a person? 

I need to sleep.  I’ll see you guys in the morning. 

It’s Been Six Months

Good morning, fam. 

Today marks six months since I started this blog.  A lot has changed since then.  A lot is still the same.  Thank you to everyone who looks at this weird slice of the Internet.  New and exciting things are coming, starting next week. 

Night Shift is super fun!  If you haven’t started, check out last night’s post for the link.  I’m also going to try to post a link to the Distorted Nation episode today (it should also be on podcast apps shortly). 

It’s Cinco de Mayo, and Eddie has graciously offered to chauffeur me around so I can drink.  He has faults, but he’s also the dude who’s consistently been there for me over the past six months. 

Alright, time to get a pedicure.  See you guys later tonight. 

Night Shift

Good evening, all!  I'm finally settling in to beta-test my friend Rich's new game Night Shift.  Rich is a DJ and an all-around awesome guy, and you should check out Night Shift.

Click on the button above to get in on the action.  I'm gonna play for a bit, then hit the sack.  My episode of Distorted Nation Radio airs on 96.5 FM in Sac at midnight, so catch me live if you happen to be up in 2.25 hours.  I'll try to post a link once the episode is on Soundcloud.  

See you guys in the morning.

Dating is Hard Freakin’ Labor

Happy Friday.  This has been a really long week. 

I don’t understand the quote.  It’s probably from a song or something, but I’m too lazy to look it up. 

Time to start my day.  See you guys tonight.
