I am Laura Hugg, a Chicago based comedian, blogging for my first time on this website. I am blogging from the bedroom of my apartment. I am sitting in my favorite spot in my place, at the head of my bed, near the window. It's the perfect spot for contemplation, self-reflection and watching people get parking tickets.

I was looking for something semi escapist to take my mind off of Minnesota being attacked by ICE thugs and our crumbling democracy. The home where I am dog sitting has Netflix, so I chose, “Derry Girls”.
