Have you ever been to a place that took you back to feeling like another time in the past? As part of a new effort to relax on weekends through explicit activities, we recently went to an evening show at the Comedy Underground. For a change, we reached early enough to get good seats. As soon as we were seated, the smell of the place brought back an overwhelming memory of being in Buffalo. I still feel foreign enough to not be able to identify the source of that musty odour, but there was something warm and fuzzy about the memory. Now not all deja vus taking one back to grad student days are warm and fuzzy – which lends itself to enhancing the overall satisfaction of the feeling itself. Like that extra bit of ginger in your morning tea.
The evening itself was enjoyable, with the comedians getting more and more vulgar as the evening wore on. I thought some of the pre-comedians were better than the main guy – or maybe I just needed to raise my vulgarity tolerance threshold up a notch. As far as relaxation – nothing can beat spending a couple of hours listening to a bunch of folks who rely on political incorrectness for a living.
As rightly pointed out by my small but loyal readership, I have lately been neglectful of my blog. If it helps, I have been talking to my blog in my mind all these weeks and have a lot to type in. So thanks for reading and stay tuned!
