It hasn't been her day, her week, her month, or even her year.

The woman who was my cashier at CVS yesterday was prompted by this magazine cover to ask me, in broken English - “Why can’t she keep a man? This always happening to her.”

Normally I would disregard the opinion of the person who scans in the barcodes of mascara and slim jims for a living, but she’s got a point. Jen Aniston does seem to have a knack for dating guys that don’t end up wanting to be with her (though I’m sure it’s gotta be rough when the hottest actor on earth leaves you for the hottest woman on earth and they then parade around their array of foreign babies like a living breathing United Colors of Benneton advertisement).

Well, I like to blame it on karma, karma in this case being that she was the favorite actress of an ex-friend of mine, someone with whom one of the (many) reasons I ended our friendship (other than seeing her eat her cats eye boogers on more than one occasion and feeling poorly for the next person that bought that US Weekly on which she’d smeared feline eye goop) was her propensity to force me to stand next to her in the grocery store while she thumbed through gossip mags and gushed over “Jen” and “Jen’s hair” and “Jen’s career” and try to look like her by wearing high-waisted jeans. Yeah well I dumped that Jen wannabe friend, and if the real Jennifer Aniston is anything like her, I certainly can’t blame Bradley Cooper/John Mayer/Vince Vaughn/Brad Pitt (or as I like to say, Bracoomayaughnitt), for breaking things off with the lady.

P.S. Did you like my extremely creative Friends-theme pun for the title? Other options were -

Her love life’s DOA

It’s like she’s always stuck in second gear

Nobody will be there for her when the rain starts to pour (alright, this one is bad I’ll admit)

Uhmmm

I’ve been in this chair and apartment all day. Over 24 hours and I have yet to eat a piece of white pizza. Oh and I just found out my boss/apartment-mate/friend doesn’t like stand-up. Especially seeing it live…

I do not comprehend…

It’s past 1 am in the morning. I have a flight at 7 am. Am I done packing? No. Instead, I am creating this blog with which to communicate my musings about and activities in NewYork City.
I have 3 weeks in the city. I have about 100 dollars to spend each week. I am staying and working with a friend who lives in Brooklyn. I will be traveling around, seeing comedy shows and trying to do open mics. Hoping to meet other comics, have some adventures, and spend very little money all at the same time. Let’s see where this goes, shall we?
