Back In The US of A

Whoa, vacation! I just got back from spending 15 days overseas with my Mom and my sister. We went to Dublin, London and Edinburgh and had a great time. I got to see a lot of friends that I haven't seen in years in Dublin, so that was my favorite leg. Although I did get to see the inside of the Royal Infirmary in Edinburgh after my sister got an eye infection, which was also great.

London was a blur of sight-seeing and me begging for more time to sleep. My Mom has never been overseas before, so there were a lot of things she wanted to see during our trip. Did she need to be first in line to see everything at 7am? Top scientists say no; Mom says yes and then gives you that look that says one more smart-mouthed comment will just break her heart into a million pieces so you better keep your negativity to yourself and get on the bus because we're all going to see Stonehenge, goddammit!

By the way - that bus to Stonehenge? My sister threw up on it. Beer!

So now it's back to work and if I know what's good for me, back to comedy as well. I wrote a few jokes while I was on vacation, I just hope they'll work over here. Get it? That was a converter joke. So just in case you were wondering if I've still got it after 2 weeks away, well - there you go.

(I'm worried too.)
