The Poets.

I just got home from an open mic night at a very cute restaurant by Belleville. It was my first time taking the metro anywhere since Tuesday and it was so nice to get out again. I left before the second part because I still am  pretty tired but I am so happy I went. Everyone there spoke English and there were some really good poets and comedians. You had the poetic stereotypes, the angst-y gay man with the turtle neck and layer scarf, the old military retiree with the husky voice, the starving young artist volunteering at S& Co. My favorite however was a Japanese stand up comedian named Mimi. I think I will be going to her club's Stand Up night on Friday. She was a great advertiser.

In case I haven't already forced you to watch this, watch it. Or if you have already seen it, watch it again.
