Mundane Monday
Hey, hey, kids!
It's Mundane Monday again.
This past few weeks I have been rewatching one of the greatest sitcoms of all time.
That's right. It's Cheers. This past Friday, I finished rewatching the Diane Chambers era. (The set is handily divided into seasons 1-5 and 6-11). Now it is time to spend a while with Rebecca Howe.
Mundane Monday
It's Mundane Monday, folks.
I was looking through some boxes of stuff in preparation of decorating and I found this:
That's right, it is the handout from my very first improv course with ComedySportz from May 1st, 2010.
Doesn't time fly!
Mundane Monday
It's Mundane Monday!
Not only is it a Bank Holiday, but it is also the 100th Mundane Monday post. (Check the URL link if you don't believe me.) And, you catch me at a cross roads.
I'm on the cusp of realising my dream of remaking Jim Carrey's The Mask in a Roger Corman-esque fashion.
For I now have:
The Mask!
And not just any Mask, but a pickled onion mask. It's going to totally change the subtext of the movie.
Over the next few weeks, I will continue to scour the Supermarket snack food isles in the hopes of finding more props for my pet project.
PS. In my remake, the Stanley Ipkiss role will be going to my pet hamster. (He's size appropriate for the mask, and he's not a diva like my parrot.)

The Big 99!
Does it get more thrilling than this?
Tune in next week to find out!
Same Matt time, same Matt channel.

It's Mundane Monday again, folks.
And do we have a special one for you!
That's right, I went to McDonald's and I won a free Sundae.
You know what that means!
Three Day Weekend!
And I can really use it, too. It's been a busy week.
Mundane Monday
It's back!
It's Mundane Monday.
It's something I've done 7 times previously!
It's the ComedySportz Intermediate Workshop Schedule:
Come see us perform comedy for you, for free on Saturday June 1st at 3pm.
You know you want to!

It's Mundane Monday again, folks.
Sometimes shoelaces can be a lot like an old married couple. When one dies, the other can often feel isolated and is often not long for the world, especially when their medication is hidden.
And that's what happened this week. A shoelace snapped, and I replaced it with one very similar and then I went to work for the week.
Then the other shoelace couldn't deal with being apart from its beloved and it died too:
I didn't have the matching spare, so I had to get the best alternative:
Which is a little longer than anticipated.

It's an Easter Monday Holiday here in the UK and so to celebrate, I made this:
It's a Duck made from the top of a box of tissues.
That's right, don't be just satisfied with one easter egg this year, now this little creature, can give you eggs al year round.
You may cry over its beauty. I have tissues available.
Mundane Monday
That's right, folks. It's Mundane Monday again.
It's been a few weeks since Gold Metal Monkey left for pastures new, but his presence is still felt in the office:
That's right, this is what he left upon my desk on his last day:
- A used tub of Vaseline.
- A small novelty glow in the dark skeleton from a Christmas Cracker.
- A Stack of his old used business cards, and expired rail tickets.
- A Building Society Visitor Badge.
- A VIP pass to a gentleman's Club from 2005.
- An Apple Corer.
As a retrospective of 8 years' worth of work, that isn't bad.
Perhaps they'll sit on my desk for another 8 years. (Because I'm really not keen on touching that Vaseline tub.)
Mundane Monday
That's right, folks. It's Mundane Monday.
This past week, despite not getting anything on Newsjack, I have been mainly writing sketches in the hopes that they are accepted somewhere.
This was part of a sketch I wrote to submit to the second series of 4am Cab:
I won't say anymore about it, until I hear back from them, as to whether they take it or not. If they don't want it, I'll probably post it on this website for you to read.
