Wanna See Some Depressing Photos? Okay!
Sorry for the late blog; today was a big day for all of us at the show, because it was the last day of NBC employment for 99% of the staff of The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien! There are a few of us who will still be working until the 19th, but today was the big last day for everyone else - badges, parking passes, office keys, work blackberries… It all had to be turned in today. It was “NBC.. You Later” Day! It was “Don’t Let The Door Hit You Where The Big Zucker Split You” Day! It was “Hey, Get The F Out And Don’t Steal Any Company Property, You A-Holes” Day! Edit to add: These were jokes, you guys. I wasn’t trying to say that people were pissed off… In fact, people were more sad than anything else. Just relax and keep reading. ;)
Needless to say, everyone left the office and headed directly to the bar for Happy Hour.
I went into the office for a number of reasons today; 1.) To see everyone again one last time to remember how it was to work on The Tonight Show, and 2.) To take pictures of the offices and studio as we all moved out. Consequently, I made two photo galleries n this blog as separate posts: One is of the studio, and one is of the offices. Spoiler Alert: Both photo galleries are extremely depressing. Even so, I thought it was significant and important to snap the photos, and I’m sure that you’d all like to take a gander… So enjoy! Just hide the knives and whiskey before you do. I’m not kidding.
After taking a bunch of depressing photos, bumming around the office, and screaming “WHY GOD WHY” to the heavens, I headed over to my friend Dave’s house for a little Friday Night Sausage Party! I mean, literally. Me, Dave, Tim, and Tony Z literally had a four man party where we made some delicious goddamn sausages from scratch! There’s nothing like cutting and grinding up pounds and pounds of bloody meat to cheer a man up and lift his spirits from the clutches of the deadly dark abyss of depression. I also shot the whole thing, so I’ll cut it together and post a little “Sausage Party” video on Monday! I’m just going to say right now that it’s gross. But I think you’ll like it.
And on that note… Everybody have an awecellent weekend! The web show will NOT be up Monday. Why, you ask? Simple - I’m still waiting for Crotteau to finish the fucking theme song! That’s it! That’s all I’m waiting on! Ugh. Musicians, am I right?! Ha ha. Just kidding. Seriously though, if it’s not done by Monday, Bley might have to hide a body… Or break out that sausage grinder one more time. I think you know what I’m saying. (I’m saying that I am going to choke Crotteau to death and then grind up his body and make sausages out of it)
Ahem. Anyway. See you Monday, everybody!!!! ;)
