Default New clown in town

Out of town, actually. Far, far out of town. Across the land and oceans, some more land, hills, rivers and I know not what else.

All the way in India.

Where I'm a hospital clown, just a "house surgeon" (I think they call it "interns" in the USA), had three trips to hosp so far and I ABSOLUTELY LOVE BEING A CLOWN and would be blissfully happy if my whole life could revolve around it. Except at mealtimes, as Gladys has not quite figured out how to eat without dipping that red nose in her food. So I do the eating and driving, she does the clowning, and between the two of us, we keep this body in shape.

God I love being a clown. I feel like Superman except instead of having to wear tight underwear outside tights I get a much nicer wardrobe. I love the way kids ignore mild-mannered me when I step out of the changing room after I've finished clowning. It's magic that only kids get. They never connect me with Gladys. So much fun..

Maybe I should shut up now. I've been told I have chronic verbal diarrhoea.

Welcome Gladys! Here you will find a number of friends. So take your time, relax and read as many old posts as you have time for. A lot of good information is tucked away on this forum.

I also want to welcome you to your new home away from home. You will find that more than one of us is diagnosed with cronic verbal diarea, check out the live clown chat (thursday 9pm Eastern time) but kick back and relax and enjoy.

Welcome to you Gladys! All of us are junkies for the same "High" that you have described. It's a great addiction. Nothing pleases me more than being a clown.
