Over the holidays I was lamenting the fact that I don’t have a hobby. Or, rather, I have many hobbies but I want to turn them all into multi-million dollar enterprises thus rendering them not so hobby-ish. Urp.
Then I returned to LA and to my Improv group Classic Bad Boy and OH, JOY! I realized Improv is my hobby! Sure, it’s sort of related to my industry but it’s a hobby because I don’t have to get my hair and make-up done to do it! It’s a hobby because the percentage of people who make money from Improv is slim to none. It’s a hobby because I get to just “play” a.k.a non-result oriented fun. Oh, Man is it fun! Better than getting drunk, better than going dancing, probably not better than sex but a full-body-party all the same. Sometimes you suck and sometimes you’re awesome and sometimes you’re just somewhere in between but the best part is that it doesn’t even matter! It’s a hobby! We had a show at Prism Box here in LA last night and I woke up this morning feeling so lucky to have met these other goofy people through Upright Citizen’s Brigade. I’ll see you back here next week when I’ll be sharing my fav way to dress for this LA heat wave!
In the meantime you can check out Classic Bad Boy’s facebook page for upcoming shows and info.
Have a great first full weekend of 2012 ya’ll!
