Appearances
I can't believe how far I came.
Yes, exactly.
Duke Ellington.
Yes, she was.
I think, you know, not just that.
She would sit with me, you know, after school she'd meet me.
We'd go to the comedy club.
We'd sit there all night.
We'd eat fried food.
After she had been working and doing whatever it was she did that day.
And...
And I didn't realize it at the time, but you know, she's a mom.
She was auditing the scene.
Now, I don't think she necessarily thought I was gonna be a famous comedian, but at that time, the crack epidemic and everything, all the bad things I could be doing, and I expressed such as earnest interest in being a comedian.
And so she shepherded me.
She figured out who's trustworthy and not trustworthy.
And okay, could you come give my baby a ride home if I leave early and that kind of thing.
And then by the time I was 16, I was a professional.
I would get gigs and make money, and I didn't need her to go as much.
And then that was kind of sad because her baby was growing up.
