The gig on Sunday was AWESOME.
A room exclusively comprising of students, not the easiest crowd at all, and I had a great gig. Not as good as my new house mate (who got a round of applause when he LEFT THE VENUE), but I felt solid, reliable and consistent. YUSS.
Monday morning I went to the doctors and got some antibiotics prescribed to me. Because I've been coughing for 8 weeks and I've had enough of it now that my sinuses are full too. Tuesday night the new lady and I went to XS Malarkey where the wonderful David O'Doherty was doing an extended headline set...
I got a bit wrecked from two bottles of Corona. I hadn't thought about my medication affecting me (It says nothing in the leaflet about not taking alcohol by the way). So that was that.
The following day I couldn't do a thing. I was completely incapacitated by my sinus and chest infection. I couldn't even get out of bed. I'd never been so ill in my life. I didn't know what to do!
This evening I was on MSN when my wife asked me if I was in a new relationship. Obviously, I lied to her.
I said we were just two comedians of the same age who are hanging out loads at the moment and that it makes a change from spending all my time with 30-year old comedians (especially as I'm moving in with 2 of those).
It turns out that the new lady ran into her ex today aswell and that he asked her about what was happening between her "and that other comedian guy" (maybe I should put that on my Comedy CV). She lied too, but in a stroke of genius that I was completely lacking, she told him that it was like Spaced between me and her. Which is an excellent example of a platonic, non-threatening relationship between a man and a woman. It was also a bare-faced lie, but a good one. Apparently he joked that he'd kill me if it was any different and then they laughed awkwardly.
At least there's an added element of danger to my life now.
Speaking of which, the new lady was apparently very close to changing her name by deed poll so that her middle name actually was "Danger".
Mmmm... sexual peril...

The new lady sounds like a catch. I always did have a thing for a girl who could make me laugh. x
