Creating a Comic

No, not a stand-up comedy job. Not yet. I got a part-time day job, as in “don’t quit your…”

I had hoped to put this off until sometime in 2010, but my recent faceplant and subsequent dental work forced the issue. Also, a comedian needs a car, and that’s something I have to start saving back up for¹. I need a laptop, too. Also some new clothes. And I’m thinking that a raging heroin habit might be fun…

“Get a job, sir!”

Anyway, the market for my itinerant consulting services has dried up as the economy has gone south, so it’s back to the salt mines for me. Since the job is part-time and during the day, it shouldn’t affect my stand-up, or regular blog posting.

My first shift starts in about an hour, and I’ll be working with my comedian friend Devin, who was kind enough to give me a heads-up about the opportunity at his office. Devin, I was just kidding about the heroin habit. For now. Probably.

1. I’ll be getting a motorcycle, actually. Vroom vroom! [↩]
