So once again I'm in Texas performing my heart out on the Crown stage again.
Dreamie and I always look forward to doing this particular faire.  The people are amazing, and the faire is as well.
At first when I came here a year ago I felt a little like I just stepped off a spaceship.  I had this period of about 3 weeks where I had to adjust to performing in a new area, but as per usual I adapted to the situation.  For those of you that don't know, when you perform around the country as a juggler, or a stand up, speaker, or anything like that, different parts of the country are simply different in what they appreciate.  A line that will work in New York does not work in Los Angeles, a line that works in Los Angeles does not work in Texas, a Texan line will sometimes not work in New York.  So there is a requisite adjustment period.
Also I try to do each of my performances as a bug flinging himself at a windshield.  If I have anything left at the end I have done it wrong.  I think I may have to do some endurence exercises just so I can deliver a full day of shows and still have energy at the end of the day. 
I'm pretty much healed from the incident where I cut open my eye on stage a couple of weeks ago.  If you didn't know it happened you would never know it by looking at my face. 
Mostly I'm just happy here.
Dreamie spent some time making a new sign to hang for my show.  When you see it give her some love it you get the chance.  I think it's cool enough that for many people they just glaze over it as advrotisement, and it blurs into the snow that is the background radiation of our corporate world.  Sometimes we forget that there is an artist there that has to make that happen.
Much more has happened on my journey out here, and I will write more about it.  Right now however I should bed down and try to get some sleep so I can deliver a good show tomorrow. 
I think I may try adding some new stuff and see if it floats out there.
