Sass Mouth on sale at In Other Words

I’m thrilled to announce my book Sass Mouth is available at In Other Words on 8 NE Killingsworth. Here’s the best part: They have sofas! You can buy a book and park it right in the store. Stay tuned for a special book release party we’ll be having there with other TIME OUT mom writers.

Ch-ch-ch changes

We’re in the process of moving the TIME OUT show information to its very own website. Stay tuned on that. In the meantime, please add to your calendars: Friday, Feb. 12th “Honey, I Shrunk My Libido” show! We’ve already sold 65 tickets, so please go to www.curiouscomedy.org to buy yours. It will be a crazy funny show as usual.

Get your mic on

Comic Whitney Streed is so nice. I’ve performed with her about three times. Always supportive. She’s probably the biggest fan of my Bi-Curious George joke. She was nice enough to invite me to perform at her open mic. What, she invited you too? I’m not special?

But wait, there’s More

As if my glam opportunity of a lifetime weren’t enough, More posted a whole separate behind-the-scenes article online. At the shoot, a guy was walking quietly around taking digital pictures. I was too busy panting at every word Caroline Rhea said to notice. Rory Evans, the nicest writer ever, quietly took notes too. Like anyone could get a word in with Caroline and me. The results are really fun:

We have a new sponsor!

Here at the TIME OUT show, we look for sponsors all the time. We also look for stuff to talk about practically non-stop. Add in a business we love, and voila! Promotion heaven. Colleen Cahill Studios is like that. Okay, first of all, she made my look like a million bucks on my headshot. I look so good I don’t recognize myself. That’s the camera and the fact that Colleen climbed on a ladder and shot me from up high. The result: Weight reduction sans diet. So boy howdy do I love Colleen and her work. Thanks for making me look great and for sponsoring our show! We’ll be whipping up some kind of special so you all can get a hot shot of yourselves too.

More Magazine hits East Coast

If only airbrushing could make me look like this smokin.

I'll take this look! Caroline Rhea: Total hottie

One of my best friends who also designed my book, Jo, was the first to call. She found a More Magazine in her mailbox in Atlanta and was all like what’s this? She had forgotten at first. Oh YEAH. Because she’s such a great friend, she bought a subscription so she wouldn’t miss what some people would call a marvel in airbrushing. What, like I look this hot with outlines of Lego blocks on my jeans that make my butt look like a motherboard?

In October, More flew me to NY to hang out with stand-up comedian and actress extraordinaire Caroline Rhea. What an insanely lucky person I am to have gotten to meet and work with Caroline and the people from More. Caroline’s way nicer in person than on stage. If you don’t believe me, try heckling her. Really loud. She could have left early that day, but she pulled up a chair and spent five hours with me working every angle of my material. Thank you, Caroline! I’ll make you proud! Promise.

So that’s what they think

Here’s a shorty clip from our Birthday Blowout show. I put it up here before, then it disappeared. Like my memory.

Kicked to the curb

Okay so last night, I had this dream I was in a romantic comedy with Jon Krasinski from The Office. He’s cute and obviously too young for me, but I was going along with it. You know, for acting. He was the quirky hair stylist. I was the older woman pretending to be young. Then here comes Amy Adams. He got rid of me fast. There’s me – the older woman sulking because well, I’m older. Amy Adams is brilliantly beautiful and so nice you can’t even hate her. Even when she steals your dream-generated fake boyfriend. What does this mean?

Friday’s show

Wendy Bax tears it up.

Betsy Kauffman rocked it with werewolves

Really glad people were taking pictures because my little Flip isn’t working again. I emailed the problem to the manufacturer and want them to get back to me so I can download the stuff already. I’m just not meant for technology. In the meantime, check out these photos from Kristina and Bert Martin. Thanks again for everyone who came to the show! And Le Cookie Monkey for fabulous cake. And Curious Comedy Theater for a great time.

Go, Jillian Starr!

Jacki Kane: Look, no cards!
