Ticket To Ride

Ticket To Ride

Monday, March 7, 2005-9:23 P.M.

Reporting from the RiverCenter Comedy Club in San Antonio, Texas-A great weekend of shows, culminating in a soft Sunday set made for a good week here in S.A....I just got done participating in a fundraiser show for St. Cecelia's church here in San Antonio...a good church-going crowd that filled the room, and forced me to "clean up my act."  They seemed to enjoy my set, and I felt really good coming off stage.

Saw "Million Dollar Baby" today...what a downer of a film.  I enjoy Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman, and the film was great, but a tear-jerker is not what I needed to see in a town 2,000 miles away from my family.  But I disdain the screwball comedies that come out these days, so I figured I should at least check out the film that won the Academy awards.  The comedy club has an agreement with the movie theater across the way, so the ticket was free anyway, and I shouldn't complain.  I like this club a lot, and truly can't wait to return.  I take off tomorrow for Tulsa, Oklahoma, and another jaunt on the big winter tour.  I have about an eight hour drive in front of me.  My homeboy Steve Burr is flying in tomorrow afternoon, so I might just stick around and crash with him.

I have chicken fingers and a salad waiting, so that's my cue to end today's journal.  I'll fill in more blanks when time is less pressing.
