Tig Notaro - Serious Inquiries Only

[Spoken Word]
And it's been very weird, like, trying to talk to friend— I've— I literally got diagnosed just a few days ago, and, uh, it felt so weird to just, my show was booked last week, and, uh, and that's when it was looking like this was gonna be the case. Then we moved the date, and um, and uh, just to kind of process things, and—

Just trying to hang out and talk to friends, it's so frustrating, because nobody will casually talk to me now.

Like, not even tell me about just boring day-to-day details. You know, they'll be like, "Oh, the— nah, never mind." I'm like, "No, no, what?" Somebody talk to me! They'rе like, "No, no, it's just it—"

No! Or they're likе, "Oh, I had a rotten day." And I'm like, "Oh what happ—"
"No, it's-it's-it's— Nothing, I-I don't have cancer. I just, you know."

No, it doesn't matter, just somebody talk to me. Please! My time is limi— Oh.
Oh, I was, I was kind of feeling like, what's gonna happen, like, how, I mean, I was— How am I gonna date, you know?
I was just thinking, like, I just was, like, what's gonna happen to me, like, how am I possibly—

Like, what if I went online. Do I go online and just make a profile? I'm single and I would love to meet somebody, but this is just weird timing, and just—

Profile just: "I have cancer. Serious inquiries only."

I just— There's— I don't know. That's all I have going on right now.
