Hey Kids

Hello all.

How are you? Good good.

Not a lot of action to speak of. I went to a comedy bar called 'comedy bar' earlier in the week. That is the one i wrote about earlier. I had high expectations going in and was a little disappointed with what i saw. It was a sketch comedy show that had a SNL type feel to it. They did five minute sketches, little fake commercials, and they even had a musical guest. The idea was great, but most, if not all of the sketches were a little soft in most areas. There were funny moments for sure, but there was also a few times in which I was sitting thinking "this is not working".

I am going back to watch some stand up on Tuesday. I think that will be a lot better and more up my ally. I have done the whole improv/sketch comedy thing, and I think I over did it in high school, and in Vancouver. It really just doesn't interest me anymore. Maybe since I haven't seen really good improv or sketch in a long time I have become jaded. For the most part, when i was watching the show I couldn't help but think I could do the same thing very easily. I don't want to sound like a cocky loser, but when I go and see a show, I want to be inspired and laugh and dream of doing something similar. I guess that did not happen. Oh well.

The club itself is really cool though. Maybe I just saw a bad show. It has a full bar, kitchen and plenty of seating outside the main stage area, which is in another separate room. It seems like there were a lot of people there just drinking and not watching the show, which is fine by me. There were a few famous actors and comedians that I saw. Nobody super famous, but one dude i recognized from Black Sheep with Chris Farley. Any man that has worked with Farley is a friend of mine! I will have to give this place another shot. I will also check out the Yuk Yuk's around here and try and find the best one. Wish me luck.

My sublet time is running out. Only 13 more days left in June. That means I only have 13 more days to find another place! I looked at two today, both were small and over priced. Shitty.

The lady that was showing me the places said not to rent in the area I am looking, because it's so expensive. She said rent way more west, or way up north. Fuck that. I want to live as close to the scene as I can. If I wanted a good deal on rent I would have moved to Saska-fuckin-toon. I'm here to do my job, so I gotta be close to the core. That being said I'm fucking broke as a joke and really cant afford an expensive place. Either way, if I want to live where I am now, Im going to have to rent a small shoebox of a place for 700-800 bucks. That's the deal. Take it or leave it. Fuck it.. Ill take it.

I got my acoustic guitar shipped out from BC. Oh how I missed my guitar. I will play her everyday.

How can it be 25 degrees AND raining? Fucking Ontario weather.

I plan on going to the NHL draft in Montreal next Friday. Bad news is I can't get a ticket. Now, I know most people would just say "well Brad, stop being a faggot and just watch it on TV". Well, it can be very electric watching it live. It was pretty awesome in Ottawa last year, there was a buzz in the air. You can look down at the 30 teams below, you can see all the coaches and GMs talking and calling, and when Gary Bettman walks on stage and he gets a standing two minute boo... there is nothing quite like it. I have a feeling if Ottawa was good, Montreal will be fucking amazing. It's already sold out, and there is already so much hype about the draft, i really cant turn it down. The best part is the trades, and there could be huge deals that would be announced live. That is pretty cool.

However, as I told dtuff, I really don't want to spend all the money getting out there and staying there if I can't get a ticket to the draft. So for now I am waiting. I'll keep you posted. I've decided if I do go I'll wear every Canucks clothing article I own. Most would say, why Vancouver when my number #1 is the Leafs? Simple. If I show up to the Bell Centre wearing a Leafs jersey I'll be shot on sight. Fuckin habs fans. Fuck em.

Ok, enough of that. Sorry for swearing!


More to come, stay tuned.
