THE STUPID CANCER COMEDY SHOW!

I wanted to write a quick 'Thank You' to the people at 'ImTooYoungForThis.org'


I was able to attend this awesome show hosted by I [2] y! And really had the best night I've had in months. The show was funny as hell, it was open bar- and I got the tickets for free?! How can I thank you guys enough. I finally met my facebook fellow lymphoma buddy Jack Bouffard, who is a regional chair now for the i [2] y organization. And if you're reading this.. it was a pleasure! Im only sad I wasn't able to talk for awhile- It was on the way out while we were being handed 'goody bags' which were a super plus. So, I just wanted to share some photos from that night.



First my friend Justin and I started out in Litty Italy for the San Genarro festival- Which was so much fun. We sat down and were able to fully enjoy some of NY's best pasta. I had chicken cacciatori while Justin scarfed down some chicken a la joey. It was delissssh. Then immediately after pummeling our bellies with pasta and chicken we stuffed our faces with zeppolis. UGH! I felt like such a kid biting into this hot mess with powdered sugar falling everywhere. Then we quickly hit another stand stocking my bag with candy apples and chocolate strawberries and started walking to the subway. We catch the first train headed uptown while making quiet little prayers that we weren't going to get lost. We come up out of the subway into a lovely healthcare rally/strike some company was having on some street and 14th. All we know is we have walking to do- so we book for GOTHAM COMEDY CLUB!



YAYYY! After walking like I haven't walked in MONTHS!! We finally arrive at the Im Too Young For This Stupid Cancer Comedy Show!!! I was so excited. We get in and sure enough- We are parked rght in front of the mic. Who can complain though? The tickets were free. I received an email- from i [2] y's presidente Matthew Zachary asking if I wanted to go thanks to their angel program.. so WHOO HOO! Thank You to Whoever donated for the event- You possibly sent me there- and I cant thank you enough.



The comedians were great, and I just love this organization. So all of you Young and Cancerous.. Get a clicking http://imtooyoungforthis.org/ Check it out. They have tons of resources and even some great stuff to rock. I have their 'Bald is the new black' zip up hoodie- and In the goodie bag I got a 'Cancer Sucks!' sticker... That totally went on my car.

So again, THANK YOU i[2] Y!!!!
-Megan
