Are You Not Entertained

by Alex on January 28, 2013

 

Came home tonight before heading out for a show.  Accordingly, the early “show” was the toughie — keeping our 17-month old son, Ivan, entertained.

 

As I went through my repertoire, Ivan’s reactions were thus:

 

1. Booooorrrrring

 

2. Heard it.

 

3. Been there.

 

4. Done that.

 

5. That is so last year.

 

6. Yawn

 

7.  What?  Wait is that the punchline?  Oh, I’m sorry, I thought you were reading the menu.

 

8.  Who does a guy need to know to get a bottle of milk up in here?

 

9.  I’ve seen funnier wakes.

 

10. If you tweak that, you might have something.  And, by “tweak” I mean get rid of it completely and have someone else perform other material for you.

 


Ivan, bored by my “show”

Don’t you let the little guy bring you down, Alex. Most of your material is probably over his head (literally — he’s kinda short!) In a few short years, once he’s added a foot or so, he’ll find this stuff hi-LAR-ious! Hang in there!

Thanks. I won’t. Got my head held high.
