I'm Getting That Weird Feeling Again.

<html>
<p>There is something that is calling to me, quietly in my soul... and it's funny. For almost three years I have ignored one of the things in this life that I enjoyed more than almost anything. Doing stand-up comedy.</p>
<p><img src="https://media0.giphy.com/media/3orieUww2zJnoYJwJ2/giphy.gif" width="480" height="360"/></p>
<p>In 2009 I was asked to start a comedy club in a large room that was part of a 65,000 square foot entertainment venue. I had never done that before, but I did. It turned out great and I quickly learned that we could save some money if I could get good enough to host the shows. So I started hosting.</p>
<p>After a year or so, I started accumulating a lot of material so I did my first feature set of 15 minutes and shortly after found another job. I gave up comedy for about two years until the club hired me back to help make it profitable again.&nbsp;</p>
<p>This time, I really dedicated myself to comedy. Writing almost every night and working out new jokes each week as the host. After another three years I had built up over 40 minutes of material and shot my first DVD stand-up comedy special called, "Fifteen Minutes 'til Mom Gets Home".</p>
<p>Here is the special if you are interested.</p>
<p>&lt;iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/9RWI33xI4mk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;</p>
<p>About 3 months after my special came out I started getting offers to feature and headline a few other clubs on the East Coast, but something happened. I got a great job offer and my kids were young and I wanted to spend more time with them and didn't want to hit the road. I gave up comedy and focused on my career and family.</p>
<p>Now it has been almost three years and I have never looked back. I made a clean break from comedy. I have not seen a show since the last time I performed and I haven't even watched a single comedy special. I quit cold turkey, but I'm getting that feeling again.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Something is telling me to go back to comedy. I don't know why. I still don't want to hit the road, but it might be time to write some new jokes.</p>
<p>I'm more honest and open on Steemit. I love this positive community and I'm telling you all first. I kinda want to get back into comedy. I may just be drunk tonight, but I don't think so. I haven't been drinking.&nbsp;</p>
<p>I'll let you know what happens next.</p>
<p>Thank you for reading!&nbsp;</p>

I'd say go for it bro! That feeling you have? That itch? It could be your passion calling. So go for it even once, sometimes maybe you just miss it nd its a one-time thing or like i said maybe its your passion calling for you. Youll never know until you try it again. I mean, whats the worse than can happen right? So go for it bro! 😊
