Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

I love this. I can definitely relate. It was 7:43 when I got ready to read this and I was thinking it must be bed time. All of this is usually followed by me getting in bed and laying awake for quite awhile.
Lol! This was so relatable! I loved it!
