Funny Lady, Just Not Named Babs

Out of the mouths of teens.

As some of you know by now, I am a stand up comic. I perform at comedy clubs, I write and deliver speeches (with humor of course), and I blog.

My teens only see the end result thereby thinking I have a no brainer as a job! Everyday, when they arrive home from school, they ask what spa treatment I had that day, or who I met for lunch, or what I bought at the mall.

They truly believe that the beds make themselves, the dishes wash themselves, empty toilet paper rolls change themselves, (heaven forbid someone else actually did this one), and Pea Pod delivers and puts the food away.

Okay, the last one would be my husband but, Mr. Pod is in agreement with my kids! You went to the library today? For what? New jeans I tell him. Oh, he replies. (Really? I'm thinking!)

As a comic, it takes hours of observing and writing to make fun of my family. In my mind I do a lot with my days, and as my audiences will tell you, I do it well!
