My Dad Is Actually A Manic Depressive,

Hopefully Standup Will Become Special Again.

The Worst Thing About Living In This World, In General, Is That Things Get Overwhelming, And Things Cause A Tremendous Amount Of Despair And Anxiety.

Once I Learned How To Talk, Personally, By Myself To Any Number Of People, Which Means Do Radio Without Talking To Anyone In Particular On The Air - I Just Found That My Brain Became Very Free To Engage In A Sort Of Stream-of-consciousness Style Of Doing What I Do.

It May Have Lost Its Special-ness Forever And The Clubs Might Not Being Doing Well But I Think Standup Is In The Best Shape It Has Been In A Long Time.

I'm Just Very Sort Of Compulsive And Lack The Ability To Keep Things In Perspective. If I'm Not Writing Or Playing Guitar Or On The Microphone Or Out On The Road, I'm Cleaning Pots And Pans Or Freaking Out About Some Plumbing Issue Or Tweeting.
