Bryce,
There are usually a couple of comets visible at any given time for somebody with a medium size telescope (say 8-10" aperture).
At the moment the brightest comet is Comet Hartley at about magnitude 7, which in a couple of days is located near the open clusters M46 and M47 in the constellation Puppis.
Unfortunately we don't know when the next bright comet (i.e visible to the naked eye) will be.
