I think we can all say there are moments in our lives that... for a lack of better words...freak us the fuck out.
I am in one of those "said" moments...and um...I'm freaking the fuck out.
It's a very surreal moment when the present is laid out in front of you...especially when you have a nasty habit of focusing soley on the future. I want nothing more than to one day make millions laugh based soley on my utter idiocracy...and love for mayo.
But I'm only 22...I have a long way to go...it took Steve Martin over 20 years to become who he is today...what makes me think I possess any hint of talent that could one day forge my way into the rankings of the comedic elite?
I hope I stay weird. I hope I stay awkward. I hope I have a lot of (protected) sex.
But in the end of the day...I just hope I go for it.
I have been in love with comedy since I was eight (and fat). I have been in love with SNL since my mom handed me Gilda Radner's biography in grammar school (and also fatter). I have been entranced by how the pure awkwardness of reality is what makes truly makes the world laugh since my conception (and also probably fat then too).
"Um, birth control and a condom...and you're still here."
I will always look back at my fat days with such fondness, because it exposed me to such comedic genuis and for that I will always be grateful.
This is what I want to do. And the more I write, the calmer I get. Whether I fail or not, I just want to know that I tried.
...and if I really get desperate I can just give myself a camel toe on stage to get a laugh.
And fart. Farts are always funny.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, the future's fucking terrifying. All you can do is close your eyes, hold your breath, and trust that your gut will push you to jump in when it's time. At least you can take heart in knowing that it's YOUR life, which means it sure as shit ain't going to be boring!
This may sound stupid, but I recently came to the realization that there is nothing better in this world than saying " fuck it, I 'm going for gold!" I am telling you it works. Just push hard and go for what you want, do not let anything stop you.
ReplyDeleteI actually feel the exact same way. I like you want to be a comic. Me more of just a writer but whatever.... so i say to you this. Go for it and I promise to laugh at your jokes!
ReplyDeleteFArts are always funny!
ReplyDeleteGet it girl. Hopefully you'll get laid more. Men like funny, right? Right!
ReplyDeleteYou'll make it! You're fabulous. I KNOW YOU WILL. Plus you're super young. You have all the time in the world to just chip chip chip away.
ReplyDeleteLaughing at the world is really the only way to handle it.
ReplyDeleteAll the alternatives to laughing are uniformly bad.
Ah... saw this and I thought of you... ;)

ReplyDeleteThe only people who fail are the ones who never fucking tried!
ReplyDeletePeople don't leave because things are hard. People do leave because it's no longer worth it.
