VALENTINE'S DAY COMEDY

Tomorrow is St. Valentine's Day, the day where those with dates feel pressure to do something special, and those without feel pressured to have a date. Truly, I hate this holiday and hubby (JH1) and I don't celebrate. Not that we judge those who do, but we got married on February 19th and will celebrate that, I mean, how much romance do two people need in one month!!

So on this day of love, what do you have planned? There is the boring flowers and candy. There is fancy schmancy dinner that costs an arm and a leg. There is romantic movies, hot tub hotel rooms, and there is.....COMEDY! (what else did you think this blog was going to write about??)

Both comedy clubs in Ottawa are offering love with a touch of humour. They both offer dinner packages or just the show. Is it risky taking a date to comedy? No, there is no risk. Taking a date somewhere they will be able to fully relax takes the pressure of you, and a relaxed date will be better able to.....well to do something after the date. Also, you get your monies worth at the comedy show. You get 1.5-2 hours of solid laughter. And according to the audiences last Thursday (please see previous blogs on Friday for full reviews of the shows) you are getting amazing shows all the way around!

So why impress your date with something new, something that shows you care about her health and well being. (laughter is known to cause less stress, and prevent suicides. yes i read that somewhere) No date? Come on down anyway! Always hotties around the comedy clubs, always! In fact, I am pretty sure some of the headliners are single as well! Plus, no one needs to care if you have a date or not, you are there to laugh! Put societies pressure and "shame" for not having a significant other to bed and get out there and have fun! Take responsibility for your fun and laughter and come out and laugh your collective asses off!

Both shows were reviewed positively, and will be a good bet to go! Yuk Yuk's has the amazing Kristen Von Hagen hosting, and there is something about a female comedian to make everything seem alright! So go to Yuks, or go to Absolute, but just go. Phone now to avoid being disappointed! And if anyone hooks up with someone after these shows, you can thank JH5 for sending you!
