In the June 17 issue of Entertainment Weekly, actress/comedian Aisha Tyler chronicles a day in the life of a traveling stand-up.
It's a laugh-out-loud piece of writing.
To wit: "Stand-up is not galmourous. People are used to seeing celebrities on the red carpet, lip gloss poppin' like a backup dancer in a Gucci mane video. They are less accustomed to seeing celebrities in line at Starbucks with a murderous cowlick, or stumbling through the Detroit aieport with a four-alarm hangover, moaning like a zombie on the hunt for brains."
In her essay, Ms. Tyler also works in such underused words as braying and raw boned.
