“As a kid my mother would try to get me to change my voice, like to sound more pleasant. I guess my voice got on her nerves or something cause I was outside playing, not even talking to her, playing with my friends…she would yell out the window, ‘Wanda, change your voice!'”
And, on being confused for Lenny: “This one lady comes up to me, she wasn’t drunk or anything, and she goes ‘Lenny Kravitz.’ And for some reason, I was flattered.”
I actually get to see Wanda Sykes in person at a casino on September 15 and the tickets are cheap as hell.
fifteen bucks to see Wanda frickin’ Sykes, can you believe that? Even if it is in the boonies I had to take advantage, seeing as she’s my favorite comedian of all time.
I’m also seeing Garbage in September and then Maria Bamford at a live Comedy Central CD taping before that, in August. Figured I’d rub that in your face since I hardly leave my house and it makes me sound busy.
Anyone who was looking to kill me, you now know where I’m going to be on three separate dates.
My usual schedule consists of reading half a Maxim, writing four articles (at least one about Snooki, the Kardashians or Rihanna), playing tennis, and watching three episodes of Pretty Little Liars.
Oh, and don’t forget defecation and eating, simultaneously. Repeat every 24 hours.
She is funny, but what is Garbage? Is that a comedy act?
