One thing I both love and hate about the comedy business is that it’s primarily a night-based business. I consider myself to be something of a night owl (is there any other kind of owl? Where are all these morning owls?), reveling in late nights and the quiet of the evening, after all the chores are done, the kids are asleep and I’m alone with my thoughts.
When I was out pounding the comedy pavement, I would often get in at 2am or so, and flop immediately into my bed, sometimes with my shoes still on. Gross! It was like I didn’t even understand (or care?) how disgusting the New York City subway was. Ah, to be 24 again.
Now, with two young kids to care for, and various paid projects, such as this one, any time left over goes to actually writing and performing comedy as often as I can. Which means my candle burns at both ends, baby.
