Trick failed twice in a day

Not so happy entry in this blog of mine.
My booktest failed twice. First in my first gig and then in my second one. Talk about redundancies.

The first gig was a 'comunión' party. I don't know the word for 'comunión' in English. The good thing about this show is that it was a big salon, many tables and i was there all by me self. I was in good shape and spirit. I handled it fine.

The problem was that this woman avoided deliberately my indication to ' read the first complete word of the page on the left' and instead proceeded to read whichever word she fancied at that particular moment. She read one in the middle of the third parragraph. So after all the crapy acting and the build up i asked: ' what was the word you were thinking of?' while at the same time advertising this notepad which had written a word i supposedly learned from her mind. It read 'Blade'.

Woman: '...Ending...'

Instant vaccum effect.

A spectator: ' What about the Blade? '

Me: 'I'll use it to cut my balls'

The crowd roared.

The second gig which included the faulty Book Test was worse than the previous one. It was this lame birthday party at a rich old man's house. The atmosfere was so low and so 'politically correct' i was feeling like shit. This shows force me to slow my pace and act in a different way. I got so self-conscious and feel like shit. It was all a crap except for the bill in potatoe bags. The spectator i handled the loaded bag had the GENIUS idea to take the bag to the next room where all her stuff was. So then when the bill is gone from the purse i make a big deal out of the fact that the bill ended up in her bag which was in another room far away from where the show was going on. Cool!!
