He's been having a hard time the last year cause his girl dumped him. He hasn't been able to get over her. Anyways, he writes me a note telling me he's thinking about killing himself. I try to call him right away but his phone is off so I e-mail him back telling him to call me and it will all work out. He calls me back the next day and is felling much better. He's a good guy, just having a moment of weakness. He'll be fine. ANYWAYS, that very same Monday evening, I go to the SET to perform in the Wheel. I'm excited as it's my first wheel and only my second long form. So I jump out into my first scene and Chris jumps out with me. Here's basically how it went: Me: Hey Buddy, how ya doin? Chris: Hey Buddy, not so good? Me: Oh yeah, what's up? Chris: My wife committed suicide last night. Goddamn. This improv thing really amazes me sometimes. Was I giving off some crazy subliminal vibe or was it just coincidence? I've been thinking about it all week and it's been just eating at my brain. Anyways, I've been working the graveyard shift all week at my hotel so I've had way too much time to think on my hands. Figured I'd just type it up and see if that'll get it out of my head. If this doesn't work, I'm hittin the bottle. Mike Howland mike@sincityimprov.com

Tell him to get out here to Vegas, Ya Vegas Baby. This town will cheer him up quick. I hate to hear someone having a shitty time over some gal. There is plenty of pudding in Vegas. As for you get off the damn grave shift, that shift is a mind Fu**. Oh by the way, hit the bottle but make sure you have someone there with you. Don't drink alone.. PS.. Don't ask so many questions next time, tell Chris how he's doing.... Me: Hey Buddy, how ya doin? Chris: Hey Buddy, not so good? Me: Oh yeah, what's up? Chris: My wife committed suicide last night. That's all for now I'llNeverTell

And I know Graveyard is a totally ass shift. I'm only doing it for a week or so while one of my auditors takes a vacation. And yet, even in this one week, it's messing me up so badly. I want to sleep all night and then when I go home at 7 to sleep, I'm wide awake. Ugh. Mike Howland mike@sincityimprov.com
