Since my last blog, another opportunity presented itself to
me. Loisaida’s Got Talent offered me a
slot in their show. Preference was given
to the residents of the Lower East Side, and I still was accepted. The Bronx and the Lower East Side are not so
different. Feels like part of the
family. My grandparents grew up down
there. My grandmother shared a public
shower with a woman named Sally. Sally
introduced her brother Charles to my grandmother. He and my grandmother eventually got
married. Then many years later, they
raised me in the Bronx. I heard some of
their stories that became part of me. So
the Lower East Side feels like part of the Bronx to me.
Getting the news was definitely a boost. Woo woo!
There’s a chance that the anticipated storm might lead to the
event being
rescheduled, but as of now, it is for this Sunday! 5pm.
My L.E.S. peeps, consider coming on over. 107 Suffolk Street.
I’m not sure if I’m the only comic in the show. Come to the show and
cheer me on. There will be several winners. The celebrity judges will deliberate after
the show. Of course it is
nerve-wrecking, but it is also exciting!
In the rest of my life, many challenges. Many!
But like I did as a parent
and as an instructor, I want to focus on what’s
going right. So being accepted into both
Loisaida’s
Got Talent and New York’s Got Talent is a very
welcoming start to 2019 in terms of my comedy.
(love you CGM)
