My 25th show last night was also my very first foray into doing a set in Spanish! I won’t deny, I was pretty nervous, and it felt like going up for the first time all over again… but the crowd at La Federica was absolutely amazing, and I had my lovely friends to support me, and it went like a dream! I had a blast. Thank you to Vidda Priego and Manolita La Primera for this wonderful experience!
After a two-month hiatus I’m back on stages. After returning to my favourite stage, Atomic’s Slay!, last week, yesterday’s Sh*tty M*ic at the Comedy Clubhouse was a lovely, lovely evening for many reasons, full of friendship, love, community and comedy ❤️
Last January I saw an ad for a cruise. It was not just a cruise, it was a women-only, lesbian cruise organized by Reynas Torremolinos. And I was in the middle of planning my trips for the first half of 2025, January would be Italy, then in March would be Lisbon for the European Standup Festival… and so for April, after considering it for a day or two, I bit the bullet and booked my cabin.
The cruise took place from April 26th to 29th. And so far it is without a doubt one of the best decisions I’ve made this year.
These ladies are the sweetest you could ever imagine. I found inclusion, sorority, community, visibility, and above everything else connections and friendships that might well take the rest of the year in unexpected directions.
I am so happy I did this. To Reynas, and to my new friendships, I am so thankful. And to one in particular, I can’t wait for our next adventure.
Sometimes, life is good.
