I really want to do more burlesque stuff and stay out of the stripper/go go dancing thing. But honestly, if your a no named burlesque performer... your not getting paid or the pay is so little that I couldn't even get a good breakfast meal at the corner store. No matter how cute your outfits are and how great your performances are, if you don't have the right connections your not going anywhere. It is kind of sad because when everyone sees me perform (go go dancing or burlesque wise), they think that I have been dancing for years and they tell me how great I am. I've only been dancing "professionaly" for 4 months.
The only good thing working about that go go spot is that I've got some good connections from the guys that came down there so I when I do go back and perform, I will be a regular thing for a longer period of time because people are spreading the word about little ole me.

Last night after I left early at the go go spot I found out as I was right there at my door step (around 1pm), that I was locked out of my house. When I went to the fitting for DEMASK, my bag was soaked from the rain so I changed bags before I left out to the go go dancing spot. However, I forgot my keys! My brother was in the house but he was alseep. I banged the door so fucking hard that my right wrist is sore. I also tried to picked the lock... I almost got it but I still couldn't get in. After 2 hours and dozzing off right next to the front door.. I mustered up the stregth to walk to my grandma's house and crashed there. I went to sleep at about 3:30 am and didn't wake up until 3:30 pm. All week long I have been sleeping 2 or 3 hours because of the 3 jobs I have (plus modeling on the side).
Believe it or not... It feels so great to be working and having money. I'm not living pay check to pay check!
My ears are 2 gauge now! YAY!
