Okay, so it wasn’t lunch. It was a Q&A after the show tonight in Philly. I went out for a ladies’ night out with my friends, Steph and Kasie. What does one do on a ladies’ night out? See their favorite transvestite British stand up comedian in Philly. We even drove the wrong way down a one way street, but only for a brief bit, about half a block. And it was the sun’s fault. I won’t say who was driving. So you’ll have to guess. Eddie was wearing a fabulous suit…beautifully tailored, the sleeves were perfect. He suggested we all curse more often, so absofuckinglument! (He also suggested it be in different languages.) And the guy in the seat next to me during the show had no concept of personal space.

The show was hysterical as usual. Hubby and I saw him during his “Sexie” tour. This was “force majeure”. And et viola! The man looks better in a dress than I do and that still frustrates me. It should inspire me to get more fit, like the lions. The thing I like about Eddie’s comedy (yes, one question allows me to be on a first name basis) is that is intelligent and full of history. You actually get to use your brain. It’s not potty humor (except when the soldiers are pooing on the horses…that really made me laugh and I don’t know why exactly).

Anyhoo, during the Q&A Steph suggested I ask him about entering politics based on an interview with him that I read last week. He did say that he is planning to run for Parliament in 2020 and would be an Al Franken-like politician and so et viola! I was impressed that he could see one so short all the way in the back. I could really only see him by holding up my nexus and watching it on the screen. We took pics with the marquee and I will add one as soon as I can.

And the parking guy was wrong. There. The last word. Subject closed.
