so, its been a weird month or two. i am no longer funemployed. which is cool because my benefits were about to run out and i would have been left sitting on the curb in front of my house if it weren't for my job. at the same time, i am only making about $70 more a week than i was on unemployment. so that translates out to me basically taking a 47% paycut for the two year break that i had in almost the same industry with the same job description. that there is a kick in the jim jim.
but then, things are going well with the charity. i had some new ideas that i ran passed my two partners that they met with huge approval. so this thursday will be the first of our new events that will give the charity a year round presence and continue to bring domestic violence into the light. in keeping with my usal unusual fundraising, i put together a night of stand up comedy to raise awareness of domestic violence. i called it "no laughing matter," which seemed super appropriate. as usual, i will be emceeing the event as well. for those of you not familiar with how a stand up show runs, that means that i am preparing to do a three to five minute stand up comedy routine of my own. this is HUGE. i have been on stage, the radio, tv, spoke in front of upwards of a 1000 people at a time. this makes me nervous.
wish me luck...
