For Ed's birthday, I tried to get him Kanye West tickets. When that didn't work, I went for the Kids in the Hall tickets. I figured that you can't go wrong with Canadian sketch comedy.

I am a guest on the show Worst Laid Plans this Friday at UCB.
This is a response I got from my friend Mike to the email I sent out to my pals telling them about the show:
I'll totally be there! I'm sorry to hear you've had
unfavorable sexual experiences, but in a way it's your
fault for not planning it on a calendar like I do.
Well, I should run as I am a busy guy! I have to eat
a banana within the hour and then discard any pens in
my household that I suspect might have a low ink
supply.-Mike
Pretty amazing. So anyway... If you'd like to see the show and you aren't a sick internet person who's going to use the fact that I've decided to intimate a comedic tale of shitty sex to a crowd of people against me, please make a reservation here.
This weekend felt long, but in a good way. I woke up early Saturday and Sunday to pack in as much as possible, and luckily there's a few things crossed off my list for this week.
Friday night I got margaritas with Matt and Lindy and we worked on our show while I got very drunk very quickly. I didn't even mean to get drunk, but when I was exactly two margaritas deep I started getting giggly and kind of sloppy. Casey Wilson talked about what happens after two "margaroos" on her Funny or Die blog and Matty and Lindy were two of the friends mentioned in her story. They have passed down to me the true power of margaroos... Seriously, don't have that third 'roo. By the time I got home at 9, I was completely plastered. I was passed out by 10.
Saturday morning I woke up to film a sketch for Channel 101 with Kendall. We did bit parts for my friend Jim's sketch series "Making Mistakes". After that we came back to my house and filled up a couple hours with hula hooping, fetch with Wagandstuff and filming. Kendall and I did a Steve Aoki/Cory Kennedy bit for the Monday To Do List. Granted, they are both kind of obscure for the mainstream population, but I hope it is funny to people who don't even know who they are. After that I had improv followed by a night out on the town.
This morning I started the day with the news that I had been selected to perform in Worst Laid Plans this coming Friday at UCB. I am SO excited to be doing the show and although I normally would blush at the subject matter (I can be surprisingly prudish about certain types of sex talk. It's the former Catholic in me...), I've seen this show before and laughed the whole way through. Obviously I would want to be a part of that. I also started my new improv class today. The class actually started last week, but I had to miss it due to the MTV Movie Awards. My class is HUGE but I'm pretty blown away by how talented everyone is, the ladies in particular. Ever since I got back I've been catching up with phone calls and making videos for the week...
Now I'm going to go pass out and do the whole "work week" thing all over again...
Last night we went to St. Nick's and Bergen's.
Last night Ed and I went to a gay mixer Downtown. We saw our beloved Sergio. An angry gay man yelled at me because supposedly the website I work for said something shitty about one of his friends once or something.
Then we got mediocre Chinese food.
This is where I'll be tonight:
