For Thanksgiving, I really am bringing home the bacon

I am in charge of a vegetable dish for Thanksgiving. What makes vegetables edible? Bacon. Yes, add bacon to something as unappealing as green beans and even vegetarians will eat them. Bacon with green beans, bacon salad, bacon pie. Bacon just makes other food better and is a refreshing addition to any traditional meal. Last Thanksgiving, as I wrote in this blog, I pretty much drank vodka and cried in the rain before going to work and dodging projectile vomit ... Read more...

As a (temporarily) former stripper, I’ll still take your order

“Will you please give me a lap dance?” I was asked by yet another drunk customer. “No” I said. “But I can get you another drink.” “No? Why not?” he persists. “Because I’m not a stripper. I’m a waitress.” I explain. “Not even for an increased price?” he points to the VIP room. “I really can’t. Sorry.” I am still working at a strip club but my job description is a little different these days. I am now waitressing at ... Read more...

StripperMobile: An ideal way to establish pole position

It was a car that drove around advertising Déjà Vu Showgirls but it is unlike any other advertisement in Vegas. In the ... Read more...

Using just one finger, I still seem to get by

On my first night back to work in a few weeks, I am hiding out in the locker room changing my outfit for the third time in two hours. I’m writing from my phone. This is the first blog written with one finger. I am terrible at this, I think. Terrible at dancing, not at typing with one finger. I just overheard a girl in the next aisle over say she is from my father’s hometown. Anyway, I am terrible ... Read more...

A Halloween in yoga pants, playing spectator, is just fine

I walked into the club when the music was blaring. The place has one of the shittiest sound systems in all of Vegas. A few steps in, I stumbled into some black light. I noticed dog hair glowing on my clothes. I was wearing what I had been wearing the last time I slept: yoga pants and a wife beater. I don’t do yoga. My hair was unwashed and pulled back into a messy bun. I was there for the ... Read more...
