336 hours later...........

it's  been 2  weeks,  i hope you are  well, or better than before.   i've  been talking to myself a lot,  instead of  talking to  the blog.    i  am not skilled with computers or the internet.  i get all swirled up  trying to "work" on the computer.   Esperanza used to  paw me , and tell me  to get away  from the computer.........

i write about wanting more  gigs, and september  is filling  up nicely..  

i'm real close to being done with  cancer  bills,,  what a relief, i'll be able to  eat that money soon..

and for the universe to stay "even"  my exhaust pipe came undone, and the radiator  cracked., and my axles are  clicking .............  dang

i still think of ZuZu  often , but i don't miss her with so much heart break ,  i'm sure she's a complete wonder dog now.

 she's watching  some  TV here,              i look  old,,,


i've been a slacker lately,  watching tv,  what a mind eraser.
i feel ashamed  about it

more  L. O. A. stuff ---   
first some background,        in 2006 , i was  banned  from ***********'s comedy club.  it was  politics i didn't  agree with, so i got banned .       i got a guest set in 2008, but haven't been it the place since..  it would be nice to be able perform there again, to meet the road comics, and to also do the open mic,, you know -  comedy stuff

so i'm trying to do way more comedy again, and  recently thought.. it would  be nice to  be able to go to ***********'s 

so...

the other day at Costco, in the organic room, i hear , " is that you  otto? " ,,  i turn around and it's the owner /manager of  the comedy club !!!!   we chat , she asks why i haven't been around , and i give her the quickie cancer story.  (  she is a cancer  survivor ) .  it was all smiles and happiness.  she  invited me  back to  the   club, and  , all is  good in the hood.

the next day i think ,, i have  GOT  to call gerry gobel and tell him about this...  30 seconds later , he texts me,  with a  gig in november

i 've needed   more  hours at work, and they adjusted my schedule to  get a few more each week...



it's human nature to not be satisfied for very long..  think about it......     but  it's not completely our fault.  the  ads that are shoved  down our throats,, buy a new this , YOU NEED a new  that,,   you wore that last year, are you kidding me

in the last 14 months  i learned  how to be satisfied, and glad about it...  the things i have are amazing.. i really don't need anything,,  well food, and that kind of  stuff.. but  trinkets and  gizmos ,, i have all i need.  if i won the lotto i would feed as many people as i could, and perform for free - wherever they'd let me     

people  WANT  stuff , and they  think they NEED  what they want.    i was like that   many  years ago, i'm sure  you were too at one time..  that's how credit cards  get maxed out

get to the point ..   ok ,   simplicity , is they  key  to happiness..   to  enjoy what you have , not  caring at all  about  what you  don't  have,  is a good positive adventure

i hope you have looked at the    Chris beat cancer . com
 site..  especially the 24 other stories about people who used food to cure themselves..  that site is a one stop shop for loads of useful information.
