I will miss New Year’s Eve, but I won’t miss the chafed butt

By Justice

I wish I was going to work this New Year’s Eve, but I am out of town. New Year’s Eve is not only a great chance to wear a goofy, sparkly hat and drink enough champagne to sink a ship, it is easily the most profitable holiday of the year. Last year during the countdown I was onstage. I was topless and holding on to a pole with one hand and counting down “Five! Four! Three! Two! One!” with the other hand. When the clock struck 12, I found myself in a storm of cash. Bills rained from the tourists and were tossed onstage like party confetti. There was barely any room to lap dance in the whole place but the demand for lap dances was high. The night typically marks the end of a very slow Holiday season. Christmas and Thanksgiving are spent with family and New Year’s Eve is spent with people you love … like strippers.

Last New Year’s Eve, I gave so many lap dances my butt was red and sore the next day. I went to work the following night and I remember that rubbing up against people’s jeans was torture. I felt like my sensitive butt skin would surely bleed at any moment while performing consecutive lap dances. My feet were also killing me, so standing up during lap dances was another form of New Year’s Day torture. Yes, it was painful but I am not complaining. It would take me two or three weeks to earn the money I earned on New Year’s Eve and New Year’s Day. I am sad to miss out on work this year but I am glad to be ringing in the New Year in Jamaica’s warm weather. I am actually writing from an open-air patio with a beach view, enjoying some Caribbean rum. I will miss you anyway, Las Vegas. Have fun but don’t do anything I wouldn’t do. Happy New Year!

Thanks for the entertaining blog posts in 2008. I wish you a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2009!

Ill never ask where you work but i guess well it all depends where you do work. I mean i went to the late crzy horse too in 2006 and work was actually patheticly slow... Nobody was in there...
Cant remeber 2007 but 2008 my girlfriend di not work...
I guess its mixed , depends from clubs ... One thing i remeber htough is that because girls dont reallyw ant to work on new years and want to party with loved ones, or family, friends the clubs give sometimes incetives to have as many girls as possible.
Surely as you pointed out for those who work it can be a good night, specially to cover up for a slow season and its certianly good because right after you have conventions ...

I hope one day you will blog about like i said once the stereotypes that are wrogn with strippers (i.e girls making tons of money all the time while sometims its ahrd to make tipout) and also that you could mention someitmes that for some girls this job is very difficult... Draining phsycioally, mentally , and egowise and that sometimes for manygirls well they dont make as much money as other because of a stuck up attitude or disgust witht he job ...

Take care,

and of course very interesting blog :)

The Wynn’s Aphrodite cocktail is liquid flirtation

In Greek mythology, Aphrodite is the goddess of beauty and love, and she’s often depicted nude with voluptuous curves and come-hither eyes. It makes sense, then, that she gets a ...
