I don’t think I ever posted this on my blog. Today I watched it because I was missing my little boy, and remembered that you could see him in this video.
I was so proud of getting through my 5 minute stand up comedy routine- it was for Stand Up 101 at Second City. I was 14 weeks pregnant, you can see little Tommy sticking my tummy out. I took for granted that I would have a certain future, a certain life. When I watch this video now I marvel at that person on stage. At the time, that was the scariest five minutes (well I went a little long…) I had ever been through.
This is inspiring. I am also thinking of doing stand up and you’ve reminded me that I just need to get the hell out there and do it!
Nice to see you! Great job! Do you think the pigeons near your home have spread the word to the other pigeons in the city? xoxox
