I'm 40...Now What?

11/7/2017

0 Comments

 
Well hello again friends and fellow humans. Now yes I have not blogged as much as I said I would.  But you know, life has to be taken care of.  Which is what I want to talk about.

Recently I turned 40.  That's right, the BIG 4-0.  And you know, it made me think about my life more than u​sual.  When I was growing up, I didn't imagine being on a planet for 4 decades.  I was too busy trying to not eat glue as much and also trying to get over the fact that girls are in fact NOT icky.   But when I turned 20 I thought "That's pretty cool. Made it this far. So must be okay."  Ah yes...the whimsy of youth. Thinking I had the world figured out.  Little did I know that I still had to turn *gasp* 30. 

Then it happened. I turned 30.  And I acquired some more knowledge about life then when I turned 20.  However, I also learned in my thirties that I actually still had a lot to learn.  Oh yes, I was at a point where I said to myself "I know some things yet still have a lot to learn."  That was a turning point.  Really, it was.  It was in my 30's, not my 20's, where I figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up.  Also, my 30's consisted of seeing how much I had to do to keep at it. Something I never learned in my 20's.  Amazing how life works.

And then on Saturday November 4th, 2017 the day had arrived...I TURNED 40. Holy cannoli I have now been on Earth for 4 decades. I made it. Sweet...or have I? See, I have had a couple days since then to think about that.  Have I really made it? I mean, financially I'm not there quite yet since I am still in the early stages of doing comedy gigs for $20 and doing acting work for little to no money.  And yeah, still have to get a script sold to a studio who will be willing to write a check and take a chance on my work.  Yet...I feel like I have.  I mean, I have seen tragedy and triumph.  I have been though some very hard times, yet came out alive.  I have seen friends get married...and friends sadly pass away in 40 years on Earth.  I have met some absolutely incredible people...and also met some incredibly awful ones.  

However, I now have this thought in my head that keeps growing and growing with each passing day. I think now "I don't think the best is here yet".  What I mean by that is NOW is the time at 40 years old to quit think about "making it out alive for another year" and think about "what neat things are in probably going to come my way still."  Crazy, took me 40 years of living on Earth to think like that.  But (and there is always a but) one question now remains for me as I start year 40 on Earth.

I'm 40 years old...now what?

Oh Hi, Just Blogging Again Over Here 

4/12/2017

    Hello you sexy humans.  Long time no see...or read since you can't actually see me with this.  First of all, I have not done anything like this in damn near over a year so please be patient with this.  

   My blog today is simply to give you guys insight of life for me.  Still doing comedy on stage but will be looking to branch out of the city of Colorado Springs and state of Colorado in general to see how the crowds are in other towns because let's be real, there truly is more out there.  And I would LOVE to experience it.  So keep an eye out if by chance I wander into your city.  Also very proud to still be screenwriting but have neglected showing my work off.  So recently been hard at work getting it out there.  And by doing so I was a semi-finalist for the Los Angeles CineFest (which has been the farthest I have gone with my scripts these days).  

   Back in November, I signed with a talent agent.  Yeah, this goof found one.  Christine Grant from Eden Talent Agency has been hard at work trying to find me acting work and this is to publicly thank her lovely face for what she is doing for me.  Thank you thank you THANK YOU! 

   I will say that "Richard Be Ranting" wasn't what I wanted it to be so ended it.  If you were not familiar with it, I was just ranting about crazy things on You Tube for your entertainment pleasure and...well it sucked.  Hey, I'm fine admitting it sucked.  So it's gone.  Does that mean I'm done doing stuff with YouTube?  Uh...no.  Do have an idea or two that will be on the YouTubes down the road so keep an eye out. 

   So in closing this blog I want to say to the one who have truly, genuinely been in my corner since I began doing things with the entertainment....THANK YOU AND I LOVE ALL YOUR FACES.  You know who you are. *wink* 

   I must be going now.  Oh...one more thing.  Yes...I still am in love with Aubrey Plaza.  Now that we got that out of the way, thanks for reading and keep being sexy you guys.  See you soon.

Hello again fine citizens of Earth.  It is I, the ridiculously handsome Richard Gustason.  I told you in a previous post I changed the show title to RICHARD BE RANTING.  But don't worry, yours truly is still hosting and is still pretty good looking.   And yes, the past episodes will be still here for viewing.  I do want to touch on something before you enjoy these episodes. 

It is important to share these videos with someone who may enjoy them.  Yes, very important.  It's also important to say something in the comments section.  The reason I say that is how can I grow this magnificent piece of stuff without shares or likes or comments or whatnot.  How can it be better if you guys don't say anything or share it someone who may like this.   Seriously...HOW?  Now that I got that off my chest.  Please enjoy RICHARD BE RANTING.
Thank you for enjoying this show.  Thank you for enjoying me.  And I will say it again, this time in my outside voice.  IF YOU LIKE THIS VIDEO LET ME KNOW.  SHARE THESE EPISODES WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND FAMILY AND PEOPLE OF THE PLANET EARTH!!!

Now back to my inside voice.  I do appreciate you all.  But please keep in mind, I don't know if this is good or not if you keep your pie-holes shut.  And also I won't know if you liked the show if you still keep your voice at a volume of ZERO!  Give me your thoughts. 

Until next time, please remember to always have a clean pair of underwear with you at all times.   You never know when an accident will happen. 

Praise be to Aubrey Plaza!

Hidey Ho neighbors of Earth.  My monkey butt has been busy since the last time I posted good stuff on this here website.  Again, this is the spot for past episodes of RICHARD RANTS.  However, during that busy time, I was encouraged by wonderful people to rename my show.  Okay, I did a Twitter poll where, like, two people voted and now the show is called RICHARD BE RANTING!  And it's still good.  Yet, the past should be revisited once in a while.  So here for your viewing pleasure past episodes of RICHARD RANTS. 
Enjoy these and enjoy your day.  Another part is coming showing past episodes of RICHARD BE RANTING.  So take care and please don't drink and text.

Goodbye Blog. Hello RICHARD RANTS!

3/15/2016

Hello you gorgeous human beings.  I am here again (control your excitement).  I have had a fantastic March so far.  So let's get with the blogging...which will be the final blog.  Now before you go rioting in the streets LET ME EXPLAIN!

Last month I blogged about doing a show called "RICHARD RANTS".  It is on YouTube every Monday at 2:00 pm EST.  I am into to two episodes in and people seem to like it.  Which got me a thinking.  Why have the blog here when I can make RICHARD RANTS a part of this site.   I was also thinking "Golly gee that Olivia Munn is pretty."  Anyways.   So after today you will see the change.  The blog is now RICHARD RANTS.  Please control your applause until after you read this.   In essence RICHARD RANTS is just like my blog only in video form. I think today's youth call that "VLOGGING".  Which sounds really kinky.  So in honor of this occasion. I give to you the first two episodes of RICHARD RANTS.  
So there you have it.  I hope you did enjoy this.  I hope you enjoyed the written words but again pretty much why do blogs and RICHARD RANTS at the same time when we can just make it easier for all of Earth.  And past episodes will be on here on Wednesday or Thursday.  

​As I bid you adieu until next time just remember...I am not only funny but pretty darn sexy too.
