Thanks so much for the well-wishes. I've made a lot of crazy decisions in my life, many of which you've probably witnessed through my lj, but I actually do feel like this is something I could do. Something I have to do. And I've been waiting for that feeling.

Of course, since I'm paranoid, the words that jump out at me in this entry are "crazy," "foolish," "ridiculous," and "seemingly irrational." But, then again, I tend to see those as positive character traits.

And, really, it's a lot of fun once you accept your own ridiculousness. I think that's what I love about doing stand-up. I just say basically the worst things possible about myself and let people laugh. I've been enjoying the past few days of telling folks that I'm dropping out of grad school to be a comedian. Their expressions. I love them.

Anyway, half of the battle is knowing that you want something with your life. We're in an adventure, and it's going to end with death. Might as well fight.

Thanks for the support, and I look forward to reading about the choices that you will make. We're all learning, and we're all learning from one another.
