Comedy... It's hard

I just got off stage doing some open mic stand up stuff. Jokes are difficult.

But I found something. It's a feeling guys. That transcendent moment when the thought I just had distills into setup and punchline. The feeling of future laughs, echoing through time. I had one joke tonight that got that feeling when I wrote it.

There's another feeling. The "I find this joke funny feeling but it will probably only get a mild chuckles" feeling. That's fine, that's a fun place as well. Because I can sell it. Or save it. I had a joke like that tonight, which I save with a second punchline. It gave me smiles

Then theres the ideas that have something amusing about them. But they are not jokes. They don't have feelings attached to them. What does Billy the Cat have to say about those ideas?

Nope, not today. (Billy lives at my brother's house. He is very wise regarding the art of making laughs.)

Finally references. They get the laugh I expect. Good old dependable references.

Tomorrow, I'll post my headshots I made today. Because it's serious business time in regards to getting the acting jobs. Also; narcissism.
