there's something addicting..

being onstage last night was one of the best nights of my life. like ever. and will ever be. there's something so freeing and amazing and enjoyable about going out on a stage in front of 600-700+ people and just being yourself and having people laugh and have a good time.

with that power in my hand, I feel so good. not like selfish like I'm glad they like me. but rather I'm glad that I could bring joy to so many people! (and that I didn't hear any crickets..)

I wish I could do that every weekend.
but then again, that's a lot of pressure. not that this event wasn't.

I guess maybe now I'm considering stage life? forget stage fright, I want to do it for everyone else. but what am I going to be? a comedian? a pianist? an emcee? a public speaker? I don't know. maybe this is crazy talk and I'm just still on a high from last night.

whatever it is. laughter is such a beautiful thing.

I agree. You were fantastic. There's something called "stage presence" and you have it, my friend.

Annnnd.. Thanks about the haikus. I think I like them because they force me to be concise. I don't think using the title is cheating though... well maybe it is, but I'm still going to do it! ;)

Congratulations on last night. I'm so glad you did well and had a good time. Don't you feel relieved that people got you?! I would.
