Take a ride and smile with pride
Life is an interesting beast. Should you try and tame it, or ride her off into the yonder?
Good question, one which I often ponder.
Like what would it be like to live free,
of fear, depression and anxiety?
to live life with normality?
I fear the person I have become
is not that same as when I begun
I know it may seem strange
but I must ask myself, how badly do I want to change?

Hello Friends,
Props to anyone who will actually read this. Well done.
Now that I wrote it, I'm not sure how I feel about the word props.
Life is going pretty well. I am working here in Victoria at Hecklers bar and grill. It's the only real comedy club in town. Pretty sweet gig bartending, while watching amazing professional comedians every friday and saturday night.
I have been writing lots of stand up and plan on crushing the open mic we have every thursday. Ill post video once i get a few shows under my belt.
Speaking of comedy, My friend Steve Hayley and I are meeting on a weekly/bi-weekly basis, depending on our work schedules. We have started our own production company, or whatever you want to call it. We are writing several scripts right now. Our first project is written by Steve and is about 3 minutes in length or so. We hope to start filming shortly. I'm writing our 2nd project, which is more long term. I'm writing the first 6 episodes of season 1 as we speak. We hope to start filming in January. I'll post links to our videos once they're completed.
If I still have any old friends out there reading this, please contact via a comment here, or email me at bradmacdoogs@yahoo.com. I would love to hear from you, especially if we've lost contact, or haven't spoken recently.
Ill leave you with this.
I was feeling pretty down today. I am 29, and realized I have not accomplished the things I've wanted to thus far in my life. The worst part is that I feel I haven't even tried that hard. I feel I have not been very good to myself at times, as if I am my own worst enemy. Since I've been a wee lad, people everywhere have been telling me how special I am, how talented I am, how funny I am. I wish instead of love and support, that I faced more adversity and didn't have things handed out to me. I wish people told me I sucked, and they didn't believe in me, because for me that is the ultimate motivation. Maybe that would have inspired me to go the extra and mile, and truly dedicate myself in my earlier years. However I cannot change the past, but I can learn from it. And learn I have. I have been thru some tough times, but I feel stronger than I ever have in my life. I can feel great things ahead.
Much love
Brad
