I am getting so close to finishing draft 2 of the book, but it's been quite a hectic few weeks and I am tired as Hell. But every day I edge a little bit closer to getting this thing done. So that I can then spend the next six weeks writing my Edinburgh show. Oh will it never end?
Of course it will.
When I'm dead.
Which hopefully will be very soon.

I am joking of course. I am actually enjoying writing the book now and very much looking forward to getting a new hour of stand up together. I have a brilliant job. A bit too brilliant. Because at times you forget to make some time for everything else.
But who cares about everything else? Comedy is all that matters, right?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha.
Don't worry it hasn't driven me mad.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

I did get some time off tonight and went for a curry. At one point I was listening in to the couple at the next table. A large young woman was out with her boyfriend.
"I love these cushions," she said to him. "Do you think they'd notice if I stole one? Stuffed it up my top and said, "I'm pregnant."" They laughed.
I thought, "You wouldn't have to say you were pregnant darling. I think you'd get away with it! Burn!" I was making fun, in my mind, of the fact that she was rather stocky in any case. If I was actually mental I would have said it out loud, in her face and then laughed, "Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha." But I didn't. Thus proving I am sane and just internally nasty.

Her boyfriend, probably in order to stay being her boyfriend, went a different way and said, "If you said you were pregnant, they'd probably ask you why you were eating a curry."
"You're allowed to eat a curry when you're pregnant," the girl responded, shooting him down in flames, even though he had been polite enough not to make the obvious crack.
There you go, a little slice of life for you. That's what I'm about.
Anyway better do some more work, hey. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
Ha.
Bye.
