Last night I wasn't really in the mood to go to see Eddie Izzard , even though I'd spent $70 on my ticket. It was one of those days where you wake up and know you're going to be grumpy. I suppose the lack of sleep doesn't help. I decided, as much as I wanted to cancel, I should go. After all, it's been a while since I've been to L.A. for a night on the town. Not to mention, I spent $70 on this...
I met up with my friends Stephanie and Jaime and I drove us to L.A. after being up since 4:30am that morning. We caught up on our lives since it'd been a little bit since we'd seen each other, as well as our gossip. After an hour and a half in rush hour traffic, we finally parked and decided to eat. I suggested Lawry's because they have delicious Prime Rib Sandwiches as well as their "crack" and cheese side dish and homemade lemonade. After I bought my lemonade, I picked a table outside for us to eat at. As I sat down, I noticed a man sit down at the table next to me. That's when I realized it was Mitch Pileggi, who played Agent Skinner on The X-Files, which was a show I watched religiously until Agent Dogget came on the show. And so, we had dinner with Skinner from the X-Files.
Next we walked to the Nokia Theater, where the Grammy's are being held this Sunday, and found our seats. No wonder these seats were $70. They were pretty nice! First row in the Loge section with only our 3 seats in the front row. Brilliant!
I don't know if you know who Eddie Izzard is, but he is a British Transvestite Comedian. He is freaking hilarious. Unfortunately, he did not come out in stage with a dress or heels, but we were still quite entertained! During the intermission, we discovered that Hugh Laurie, House, was in the audience as well. That's when I thought to myself, "Self, I wonder how a conversation with these two Englishman would be. It would obviously be quite entertaining!"
Eddie Izzard put on a hilarious show and I am positive I laughed off many, many calories because by the end of the night, I was hoarse from laughing until I coughed! Great, great fun and I am glad I decided to go. :D
