New Lease on Life...and Apartment

Wednesday, February 28th, 2007

I'm finally all moved into my new apartment here in Encino. It's so great and it's so much bigger than my old place. I'm really excited about living here because a lot of my friends from Comedy Sportz are here.

This has been a great month for me as I didn't have to go out on the road once to do stand up. I was able to make all my money in town, which can be difficult at times. I did audience warm up for the Nick at Nite show and I also shot something for Direct TV, which I think I mentioned in my previous blog.

The short film I shot was okay. I got to don a football uniform and you can check out some of the photos here - www.myspace.com/tomclarkcomedy and click on my photos to see them. I felt I was tricked a bit in this shoot, they said I was a featured player, but I didn't have any lines. I had a line at one point and just before they were going to shoot they took it away from me. At first I was upset, but then I realized I didn't really want to say the line anyways 'cause it was kind of cheesy. Me and the other guys who thought we'd be featured had fun on the shoot and we even got to play in the fake rain. I really think I still have another year left in me and I know I have another year of eligibility left at St. Norbert College so I'd like to announce my return to college football.

Head to Utah and Vegas the next two weeks and I'm shooting a spec commercial in a couple weeks. Also, there's a new show that's going to start airing on VH-1 called Dept. of Acceptable Media. It's a show featuring people from Channel 101. It was started by Rob Schrab and Dan Harmon two Milwaukee guys, you should definitely watch it every day, esp if you have a Nielsen box. Okay I have to put stuff in some drawers and forget where I left them.
