This has inspired me to start a new hobby. Making paper clips chains cuz there's no way I would ever be able to do this.

Happy Labor Day! “The upper class keeps all the money and pays no taxes. The middle class pays all the taxes and does all the work. The poor are just there to scare the shit out of the middle class.” - George Carlin

Spoke to Mitch McConnell today. He said he's doing well, my mother says hello, and I'll find love in an unexpected place. The psychic only charged me $50.

This Saturday at Chicago Dramatists come see what's cooking with a sampling of alums. I'm doing a piece in the 1 - 3pm slot called Slightly Written/Mostly Improvised featuring Pat Musker, Pat Towne, Rick Hall, and Ric Walker. Tickets are pay-what-you-can. tinyurl.com/y3hc4685

It's an incredible waste of tax payers' money, but you know who really doesn't care that your statues are gilded? Pigeons.

Let us not forget that the melody of our national anthem is lifted from a British drinking song - A tinge of irony and also a bit too on the nose. tenor.com/view/firewor... Go home, America. You're drunk.

My favorite movie of all time. I do subscribe to the "it's a slasher film" theory. The sequal should be about Charlie dealing with multiple class action lawsuits.

I have been in bed about 45 minutes longer than expected so far because there is a cat sleeping on me. But I wonder if the cat is actually awake and thinking, “I can’t move because my human really likes it when I curl up on him.” This could go on for awhile.

I'm working on a new play about a 1970s psychopath weatherman who is also a horror movie host. Good times. Come hear the first two scenes.

Not sure how grueling your work week was, but I got milk poured on me by a cow flying in an airplane. Fortunately, there was a cookie involved.

Come hear a new excerpt from my new play "Earh's Designated Mourner". Tuesdys @ 9 is free and always a good time. It's a safe space, too, if you ever want to share your work or participate in the cold readings.
