funnies

On Saturday night my brother treated us — my sisters, husband, and I — to a night out (his Christmas gift to us all).  We had KFC (don’t judge, that shizzit is fantastic!!!) first then headed down to the city to see Brian Posehn at the Lake Shore Theatre.  You may know Brian Posehn from The Sarah Silverman Program, Newsradio, Just Shoot Me, his appearances on Friends, and/or the many other notes on his resume.  Not only was he hilarious and very enjoyable company, the two openers for the show were GREAT too.  I’m trying hard to remember their names… Google helped me out with one, Mike Stanley, because all I could remember was his last name, and the other guy was quick with the political commentary humor but I can’t remember his name… short guy… late 20’s… ???… oh, I don’t know, nevermind.

I’d never been to the Lake Shore Theater, although I had walked past it dozens of times and I’m sad I didn’t go in sooner.  I sort of forget how much I enjoy stand-up comedy, until it’s right in front of me.  Weird.

So it was also the longest time Noah and I have left John.  No, we didn’t leave him in the car.  He was with my parents who were super eager to get him all to themselves.  My parents are great when we are up there and the most recent addition to their awesomeness is their willingness to assist with the baby care.  It is SO NICE to get a little break during the day to just chill or go run an errand without having to pack up John and take him along.  I do miss him though.  I’m used to holding and snuggling him a good portion of the day and when we’re with family, I get to missing his weight in my arms and his sweet drool on my chest.  He’s such a sweet boy!  Luckily, my family doesn’t seem to mind too much when I steal him back for a feeding or a snuggle.

Also while home I watched Aziz Ansari (Tom on Parks & Recreation) ’s stand up that my sister and brother had saved on the DVR and, never having seen his stand up before, I had a sore face from all the funny.  It was a weekend of fun and funny.

I leave you with this:

    I suggest the 2 of you search Comedy Central’s upcoming titles and DVR it, because we never made it to the point where he talks about hanging out with Kanye, and that shit is FUNNY.

    Ok, I just watched the movie you embedded. The major Kanye bits are covered, so now you only have to DVR it if you want to have something AWESOME to re-watch on nights you’re up late with baby.

    Aziz Ansari is so funny! Ross and I saw him on Conan a little while back - he was talking about messing with one of his cousins on facebook and it made us both think of Noah. Thanks for posting the clip, I needed a good laugh today!
