WE LOVE YOU NYC

We're back in Chi-Town now!! The NYC Sketchfest was ridiculous fun and now we're all recovering in our own ways. We saw some truly amazing groups and got to hang out in the UCB Theatre-which has to be one of the most welcoming theatres I've ever set foot in. We rented a nice little van and drove all night Wednesday and into Thursday so that we could be in New York in the afternoon. Needless to say, delirium set in and quickly spread until we were all talking nonsense and/or seeing nonsense. But, it was all worth it. The UCB Theatre was just so alive with people. The beer and vodka and red bull flowed like water (but unlike water, they had a curious drunkening effect) and we chatted with new friends and people we hadn't seen in a while. That's the beauty of sketchfests, I suppose. The closeness between groups. And it's funny because half of them you haven't seen in six months or more and your last meeting was in a city foreign to both of you. But, there's an instant friendship built in those couple of meetings and it's always a pleasure to see these people again and share some laughs. So, all-night delirium included, it was an extraordinary experience!!

I guess I'll leave you with my favorite moment of the trip. It occured during that all-night cross-country ride. We stopped at a restaurant on Thursday morning, Tom got out of the van and simply stated, "We're randomly at King's and I randomly have a boner."
