Tis the Season To Wear Wench Pins.....

About two years ago I posted a note about how much I hated my job. Now, I work in a place I love..and I'm waiting for the old rug to be yanked. I finally get to understand post traumatic layoff syndrome. Things are going well, so something has got to screw it up, but, I'm not married anymore. I have all my debts paid off. NOW I know..it's self sabotage time!

I have been playing the old..."I wanna do this" .. "I wanna do that" recording in my head. Some of you have seen my stand up and know how much I hate whiners. Playing Las Vegas was a wake up call. There are whiners EVERYWHERE I work.

I sat with some unnamed comedian who brings in about $35,000 a night performing. He was bitching about not having enough time to play golf cos he needs to sleep in. Whiner. There was another woman performer who has been in the business since dirt was subject to gravity. She was complaining that no one understood her concepts, so she needed to spend another $250 grand on sets. Whiner.

Why the hell do they think they have it so bad? I'm one of the thousands of comedians out there who needs to have a day job so she can afford to work, and yet can't work the gigs cos she has a day job. I'm a WHINER!!!! ack. That's why I have the tape going through my head. I have that infernal, "if only" disease, and I musta caught it from these well paid old timers.

So, why do I make a Wench comment above? Some of you know me from nothing else than my affiliation with my number one hobby, (okay, BESIDES men hunting and my dog), renaissance faire addiction.

The point is when I can't make it to a club cos I have to get up at 5am the next day, at least I get to play Smart Ass Wench every few weekends. For those who have no idea what that entails...you gotta see my act.

I'm glad that those of you who have been reading are good enough to kick me in the ass and say...HEY where's the commentary this month. Now you know, I've just been off being a wench with the Kidd's Fleet in town. I'd come back sooner or later.
