I’ve been incredibly busy recently writing new comedy material and rehearsing. I’ve got a gig tomorrow and I’m really excited to try out the new stuff. I know some jokes will work and others might not but the buzz of being on stage and entertaining people will always be there for me!
I don’t like not blogging for long periods of time. During those times of not blogging I come up with several ideas and unless I do the blog post within a day or two I tend to lose the excitement of that topic. I’m not worried though. I move on quickly but I do feel it’s important to act quickly on moments of inspiration before they dissipate.
Have you ever needed to send an email or correspondence to someone of importance and not been sure what to say or how to say it? Have you ever felt that burning in the pit of your stomach from all the nerves before you clicked the send button?

Nearly 9 years ago to the day I decided to join a my local badminton and squash clubs at the same time. I went to the badminton club and made some wonderful friends and I’ve been going ever since. I didn’t enjoy the squash club as much so I went a few times but I never went back.
I decided to go alone because I knew that if I waited for friends to join me I would never end up going. I think we all do that or have done that in the past where we’ve suggested an idea to a friend – “Hey lets go join this club” and ultimately it never happens because either you, your friend, or both of you can never find a mutual time to go.
We create, what I call, dependencies or IGIUG’s (I’ll go if U go). If those dependencies fall through for us suddenly it becomes a reason not to go and do it. That or fear. Fear is another big reason. The fear of feeling silly for going and doing something alone and thinking that other people think you’re a saddo loner just because you decided to do something alone.
