Back on the street • The show must go on

With some beautiful weather here lately I worked the market both yesterday and today. I'll do it again tomorrow. Also worked the Fenix Underground last night. I was feeling in a bit of a funk yesterday, I thought that the best way I could make myself feel better was to make someone else feel better. It worked. I connected with my audiences, I paused, I didn't step on my jokes or my magical moments. Today's shows were even better, I got up on that newspaper box and did my show the way I like to do it. It's a fucking spectacle man. . . I love it.

In 9 days, I will compete in the close up contest at the World Magic Seminar. I think I will dedicate the performance to my mom, who was always my biggest fan. I love contests and auditions and making performances matter. With a twinkle in my eye and some spring to my step, I work though yet another devastating heart break. I got a call today and the number that came up on my cell was Mom Cell. For a moment I was in the Twilight Zone then it kicked into voice mail.
