On being old. On being Sherlock. On being busy.
A thing many of us do sometimes is complain about aging but typically when we complain about aging
we're mostly kind of kidding around like it's no big deal.
We get older and we have things to wind up out but it's all good.
But the thing that does suck about aging for me that I don't like is the tiredness.
I got a great night's sleep.
I had too coffee's day.
I had a large diacote man.
We never have diacote in house except for Passover and then we buy the kosher for Passover
diacote.
I'm a big fan.
I mean it tastes exactly like all of it diacote but I just love diacote.
But anyway I shouldn't be tired and I am tired.
Why?
Because I'm freaking old.
It was a very busy weekend for me, particularly Saturday.
Saturday I had to get up a little earlier than I normally would on a Saturday and I wake
up early all the time.
Which is one of the issues with the being tired all the time.
But I had to finish my workout early so that I could get to a rehearsal early because I
had rehearsal for Jack a little bit all the first thing in the morning.
Got there.
Was there for about an hour-ish having fights with my wife in the show in character.
We were rehearsing a scene where I'm calling from the office a couple of different times
and we are having increasingly angry interactions with each other.
I left that rehearsal early.
I mean I was dismissed.
They were done with my thing.
I left before it was officially over because I had to go do the Sherlock show and it was
funny because when I left I called Lauren and I was like it's very weird to be calling
you my wife after spending the past hour plus being on angry phone calls with my fake
wife.
It was nice to have a phone and not be passive-aggressive or aggressive-aggressive as I had been during
the rehearsal.
But I had a rush to go be Sherlock and I can't remember what I told you and haven't told
you to your listener.
Basically I was playing Sherlock Holmes in a show that I was only improvising in.
I had no rehearsals.
I had no prep.
I didn't know what the show was.
Other than I played Sherlock.
The only thing I had planned was Sherlock's British, I'll do a British accent and then
the day before the show I got an email from them saying hey here's everything you need
to know.
By the way don't do any accents.
You're playing Sherlock as you.
I was like okay great.
The one thing I prepped.
I won't do.
And it went great.
There were two shows back to back, two different mysteries that I got to solve.
You know a little bit more.
The second time around because you have a sense of how the show works.
But it was very funny.
The audience had a good time.
I had a good time.
It flew by.
So I did those two shows back to back.
Then I went to the tail end of a comedy sports rehearsal and then I went to a comedy sports
match where I was the voice.
I was the person running sound and being the announcer.
It was fun.
But I was tired by the end of that day doing it.
It's not tired like I'm whining about now where it's like I just wish I had a little
bit less tiredness in my bones.
This was just like I waved out after doing the two shows back to back following a rehearsal
and then going to a third show.
It was not a terrible a lot and I wasn't like unhappy about it.
But it was more tiring than I would have guessed to do two shows back to back like that
and then go do another thing.
I could have very easily gone home after those two Sherlock shows and just crashed.
But it said I went and was doing some voice comedy.
Yeah.
So anyway, that was that Sunday, Lauren had won tickets on Saturday.
Lauren had won tickets to go see or won tickets to she had won a Broadway lottery.
And if you're not familiar with those Broadway lotteries, you win the opportunity to buy
heavily discounted tickets.
She was able to buy two tickets for the show.
Death becomes her on Broadway.
Two tickets for $90 were normally one ticket would be more than $90.
And I was like boy, I'd love to see that show but I don't want to go to more.
And Lauren was like well that's good because Sierra wants to see it and I only have these
two tickets and I Lauren wanted to go.
So anyway, Lauren and Sierra wanted to go see that show on Broadway and leave it on
I stayed home.
We did a bunch of things.
We were quite productive.
We actually wrote and recorded a song.
We did a separate things.
We did together things but it was really nice to stay home and do almost nothing.
I enjoyed that very much.
It was a good recovery day.
Yeah.
I was thinking about how a friend of the show, a friend of the Lex Brian Warren has talked
about how sometimes I go on on this show and I don't edit it out.
I can't edit it.
If I start editing this show, I'll never get released ever.
But I do feel guilty when I go on because I don't like making Brian more tired.
He doesn't need that for me.
Anyway, I hope you're all doing wonderfully happy April 6th and I'm more soon.
Lex.
