It’s a Grind
First, thanks to all of you for e-mailing me your suggestions on the perfect color of pea coat. I weighed all the option sand comments, did some soul searching, prayed to my God and finally settled on….drum roll please……pale blue! Yes I decided the blue was both classy and fun and I wouldn’t be embarrassed to wear it for the next 5 to 10 years. The coat arrived via UPS yesterday and as soon as the weather cools down a bit I’ll be sporting it. Just my luck this is the warmest winter in California’s history. I’ll probably get to wear the coat for a week in January.
On to my big news
My comedy buddy Devin Dugan and I took the plunge again in hosting our own comedy room last Saturday night. After our last show at Blender Bros opened and closed in one night, we were a bit more careful in choosing locals.
Devin patronizes the It’s a Grind coffee shop in Anaheim and got chummy with a barista and got the owners to agree to let us host a night of comedy. Devin booked some awesome performers, including Eddie Pence, Delicia White and Geoff Keith. Of course he made the wise decision to make me the emcee and he headlined.
We killed! Even though we had to keep it clean, we rocked. People came in for coffee and stayed to watch the show, which is a true testament to the comedians. There were people were sitting on the floor and even standing outside watching from the open door. The owners said they want to make this at least a monthly show, maybe more. And they are going to tell the corporate office about us, so perhaps we can expand to other shops around OC and LA. Devin and I are already talking about our December show. Now all we have to do is start making money doing this.
A friend of Devin’s was taking pictures so I might actually have more than ONE picture on my “photos” section. Yes I know, it’s false advertising to have a “photos” section with only one photo. It’s also bad to have not updated my show schedule since May of 2003, but what’s a girl to do?
