drew barrymore in 'scream'

   i went to perform tonight after attending a comic potluck. notable about the show i was in was a performer in drag doing two scenes. first was wearing a dress looking like the british flag, or 'union jack'. I had to explain what this was to someone else, they weren't familiar with the reference even though it was in a rolling stones song, 'get off of my cloud'. actually, it was my dad that informed me of what it meant after i heard the stones song. the second was doing the drew Barrymore lines from the first 'scream' movie. i found this performer after the show and said i liked the second one more than the first as i understood it better. same is true with seeing burlesque, where it is funnier when one knows what is being parodied. and various phone songs were included, first was Adele's 'hello'. another was 'telephone' by lady gaga. i did ones about changing grocery stores, a comment about karaoke, and meeting the hamm's beer bear.
   i brought some reese's peanut butter to the potluck. as usual, i enjoyed seeing some people at the potluck, but was bummed about who i didn't see there. i liked seeing how there was plenty of egg nog, so i drank a decent amount. i didn't know at first what to get for the potluck, but when i was at a Walgreen just before i departed for the event i saw it and said 'why not'? since i like it and it was cheaper than some other things there. when i arrived i wasn't sure where to leave it, then i asked the event coordinator and was informed how the empty bowl was a good place for it. i would have liked spending some more time there but stage time means a lot to me. especially when i knew the big dog would be the show closer at this one. he helped me with getting a better pose for the 'ring of honor' photo that i did with the MC. it was the second time i had done an open-mic, or guest set, at this show, which is held once a month.
