My office firewall is being finicky today
One minute, I can access my dashboard and the next minute I can’t because tumblr.com/dashboard is categorized as “sex”.
You guys are just too sexy for my office…:sigh:

What's the deal with this "girls need to prove...
For whatever reason, the big icky issue that I keep seeing brought up this week is how young women need to jump through a series of hoops now to prove they are actually nerds. I’m actually kind of itching to talk about this on stage, but I’ll say something serious here.
This whole debate breaks my heart. People who know me well in real life know what a dweeb I am. I wrote Harry Potter...

The internet is telling me to see Ana Gasteyer...
I still feel like I’m going to be kidnapped by mature twinks if I go alone. Okay. That’s totally not true because that wouldn’t even be a bad thing. I’m just afraid of sitting by myself in a fancy place all awkward-like. But I guess the performance will make it worth while?

Decisions...
My company summer party is tonight from 6pm - 10pm. Do I:
(a) Spend my entire night there.
(b) Spend the first part of the night there and then do the 9:30pm Motel Luca open mic.
(c) Spend the first hour there (or skip it all together) and then go to Feinstein’s for Ana Gasteyer’s show. Note that Ana Gasteyer’s show will cost me about $65 when all is said and done, and I will...

A NYC Improv Weekend
Friday, as you know, I went to the FrISC competition at the UCB. Last night, I caught Stranger and the Baldwins at the PIT and then went to Williamsburg for a party one of my Level 4 Improv friends was having. I got into a very heated discussion about certain improv teams and theaters, which I’ll get to later. Now, I’m running late for a brunch with some lovely Magnet ladies and later...

julieklausner:
Attention, New York! There are still tix available for Ana’s cabaret show this Monday night! What better way to celebrate being granted a basic civil right???? (Marriage)
Does anyone else want to see this? I have a company party that night, so I could get drunk for free there and then go to this. Anyone?? Bueller??
Also, who wants to hear about the time I got snuck into the...
"As they say in Italy..."
I just got drunk in a neighborhood wine bar with this amazing 69 year old woman (she looked early 50’s) who would say things like, “I’m an actress! I trained for 8 years in Ireland and then I trained here,” or “As they say in Italy…” or “I sang in South America!” or “They let me sing there all the time!” or “My...

The Mantzoukas Brothers at FrISC 2011
I just came back from the UCB where I saw the improv portion of the FrISC competition. All the teams were great. Throughout the night, I began wondering to myself how the judges would vote. Would they reward funny over form? Prefer jokes based on game over relationships? Then, the final act, The Mantzoukas Brothers took the stage. Within the first minute—before they even took their...

I see my true colors shining through...
Comic: I need an actress for a sketch I want to shoot, would you be interested?
Me: Oh, yeah! Of course. Wait--it's not porn, is it?
Comic: You wouldn't do porn?
Me: No. I mean, look at me. This is valuable stuff. Not everyone should be able to see it.
Comic: Right. Well, you'd be playing someone like yourself.
Me: Uh-huh.
Comic: A really self-absorbed actress, you know.
Me: (sarcastically) Yeah, that's sooo me. (laughing) I can handle it.
Comic: Yeah, all you do is talk about the projects you're doing. Like, "I'm working on this", and "Then...I'm working on this,"...blah blah blah...that's all you talk about and it's really annoying.
Me: (seriously) Oh my God, that is me.

Okay, does Hillstone suck, or is just me? (or is...
I was told that I would have to vamoosh for at least an hour during lunch today. There’s an A/C unit above my desk that needed to be replaced. Fun, right? Well, it’s raining, so I couldn’t go on my usual afternoon walk. That also means that I couldn’t use my extra lunch time to go shopping or anything fun. So, I made an executive decision to suck it up financially and go to...

I wonder if not linking to the hairpin article might have been a mistake, since they did MENTION it…sometimes I just forget to link stuff at the end. But I DID notice the Julie Klausner thing omission. Interesting.
Yeah…I mean, I figured they just forgot to link your original article, too, but...

“I don’t have a shot with him. He’s probably gay or married or...”
– This literally ran through my mind last night while I was looking at a hot guy.
“He probably doesn’t like Star Wars” is my new psychological deal breaker. Be advised.

Now I can worry about real things…like where I’m going to sleep when I’m in Chicago.

My (first) show is tonight!
I’m totally on top of things…
(Actually, I kind of am. That’s what scares me the most. Whenever something I do has the potential to not suck, I feel sooo much more pressure.)

Weekend Drama
I was away for the entire weekend, but the only drama that happened was still happening in New York. I got a drunk text from a “friend” that was meant for someone else. In the text he called another female comic “a funnier, hotter version” of me and that the person who was supposed to receive the text should book the other girl for some show. He then spent the next hour...

For instance, I would flat out MARRY someone for this cappuccino machine.
So far, favorite submissions include:
“I’d date a guy for his rooftop. No joke. Probably also a Hamptons house, but only if it’s his (not a share), and he has private transportation to get there.”

Ruminations on calling bullshit...
I was reading about the Republican senator who crossed party lines to vote pro-gay marriage in New York and how he told naysayers, “Well, f—- it, I don’t care what you think. I’m trying to do the right thing. I’m tired of Republican-Democrat politics. They can take the job and shove it. I come from a blue-collar background. I’m trying to do the right thing, and...

comediva:
Now, I’m not trying to be a hater, comedivas. Really, I’m not. I’m thrilled that boobs are no longer an impediment to running for President of United States. But why does it seem like in order to get even close to the White House, you gotta be kind of a crazy b*tch?
Yeah…but this means she’s in the news. When women are in the news for politics, that means...
