Ever since I began working again (about two weeks ago) I’ve been listening nonstop to British comedians. My two favorites [well they are probably almost everybodys favorites] are Russell Brand and Ricky Gervais. I downloaded the first season of The Ricky Gervais Show and have been reading and watching anything with Russell Brand. They are both incredibly smart and make everything funny. However, a nasty side effect of this overdose on outstanding comedy is that it seems to have jumbled my brain. I think all of the violent laughter and shaking of my head have dislodged some crucial brain-circuitry. Admittedly there was not a whole lot to mess with before, but now, trying to utter a single coherent sentence at work is impossible. I may have actually uttered the following sentence “It’s okay, you saved John* a lot of headaches from me.” Imagine an awkward chuckle and me shamefully walking away. That could be the most nonsensical sentence I’ve ever spoken. A proud day for me. I can only imagine how confidence inspiring that was for my boss. Clearly, I have everything under control.
