October 16, 2003, 10-years ago today: one of the saddest days of my life. I remember it more vividly than any other trivially upsetting thing in my life. The Boston Red Sox blew game 7 of the American League Championship Series to the New York Yankees.

My first year in sketch comedy
366 days ago I had my first live sketch show with Dictator’s Time Machine and it was at ImprovBoston‘s Sketch Cagematch. I’ve always liked watching sketch but it wasn’t really on my radar until I was asked to fill in an actor-role for one show. A year later and I’m still performing with them. Now… Continue reading My first year in sketch comedy

It doesn’t really feel like it’s been that long, which is good because that means it didn’t end up being a chore, a fear of mine from the beginning. The raw stats: 120 posts for an average of one post… Continue reading One Year in Blogging
One Year In (Stand-up Comedy)
Today marks my 1-year anniversary of being a stand-up comedian. Not that I needed it, but Facebook even helped remind me by posting an “On This Day In 2010” status for me. It was in Worcester at the now defunct Orlando’s Comedy Jam. I was there to record Ryan Staples‘ set so he could submit… Continue reading One Year In (Stand-up Comedy)
