i feel so bad that i couldn’t stick it out. i feel like i let everyone down. i wanted to be there for my friends, both the two who were physically there and the ones in spirit who lived too far away to try to make it to the show. yet when i think about it realistically, it’s noon now and it’s hailing again here and there’s just no way i would have been able to make it 24 hours in hail/lightning/rain. it wouldn’t have happened. either i would have gotten sick in the line or really really sick once i got home. the kids who are in line right now still have almost 5 hours until the taping starts. good luck kids! we are all rooting for you!
the sick thing is tomorrow is supposed to be sunny, clear, and not at all windy.
january 23rd, 2010: 5 years to the day since johnny carson passed away - the day after conan’s last tonight show - the first day of me getting back into comedy. the only way i can redeem myself in my mind for missing this taping is if i can get a job writing for conan on his next show.
