Chris L, PFT, Me

*I could write a 9 page fanboy essay about this picture but I won't; I'm trying to turn a corner.
I saw PFT last night in Arlington, VA. He killed; that's all he does. I was sitting close and sporting my
Newbridge is For Lovers T-shirt because I tend to dress poorly. It served me well, though, because Paul, from the stage, sees the shirt, and yells, "Yes! Best Show!". Needless to say, I went home smiling.
Tonight, I put on a nicer shirt, which I should have tucked in, and saw PFT again. This time, I was alongside my first FOT-in-real-life, the great Chris L. After the show, Paul invites us to the post-show gathering and gives us a solid 30 minutes of conversation - not just tolerating us, but truly enjoying his conversation with us. He is as nice a man as he is a great comedian.
My flagrant depression is cured. I urge all of you sad sacks out there to hang out with a FOT you've never met and a comedian you've loved for 10+ years.
Holy crap, what a fun time. Nice to meet yous fellas!
