Comedy Blog #4- Thanksgiving and Christmas Holidays

So Thanksgiving is coming up in a few days. Some people are going all the way back to LA and that fucking sucks to have to travel so far. I am lucky enough to live in San Jose, so I don’t have to travel too far. Thanksgiving is a time for families to get together and enjoy a good dinner… since I’m Mexican that means at least 3 or 4 kegs of beer and a piñata somewhere. I never really enjoy thanksgiving with other people in my family which doesn’t include parents, and siblings because it seems like most people in my family are also scam artists in some way or another… have you ever had a grandmother who made you pay for kisses? Haha, ok my grandma isn’t that way but those my age are. Christmas is the same thing… we all go to my grandmother’s house. I think people only go for the presents, but all anyone ever gets is usually just a pair of socks or some other stupid crap to jack off in. And of course there is Santa Claus who stalks you all year long...

I also never liked having to buy presents on the holidays, because I am always so effing broke that I can’t afford anything. Then there’s choosing the right present, and it’s like “if you love me you would know exactly what I want”. Sigh… don’t we all love capitalistic America? Happy holidays everyone…

Truthfully… I would rather spend my holidays out on the streets. Why? Because that’s where all the fucking money is! Have you ever seen how much homeless people rake in on the holidays? Imagine that, times ten… ok you will still probably only have a dollar. But imagine street performing on the holidays, people are way more giving at those times of the year, as opposed to other times of the year where I’m just a ghost on the sidewalk. Maybe I will be able to make enough to pay for the RAISED TUITION... like that's gonna happen...
