I don't know.

Sometimes when I'm writing a joke, I'm like, this is the worst thing that anyone's ever heard.

And I just sort of spin out about it for about 40 minutes.

But now I'm just like, yeah, I'm just much more relaxed.

I'm really glad that I took the off.

Yeah.

Oh my, I really find it difficult to sit in front of a computer.

Like when I sit down to write something, I have a genuine fight or flight response.

Like I have to like shackle myself to the computer.

But I would say, like, usually what I'll do is if something crack up happens or if I have an idea, I'll write sort of like a half-hearted note in my phone.

And then when I need to use it, I'll rifle through my phone.

I just saw a note the other day that just said black banana.

That means nothing to me.

No sense.

But usually because I'm like, I've been described by my friends as a gig pig, do lots of gigs, is that I'll have like, you know, like few 10, 15, 20 minute bits, work on them throughout the year and then find out how they all meld together for the hour show.
