Stripped
Tales of the naked city, from a Las Vegas dancer.
November 9, 2009 · 5:02 PM
Using just one finger, I still seem to get by
By Justice
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 at this. I think there is probably something inherently sociopathic about sales.
I just did a few dances for a man who said I am incredible, inside and out. He said I will make some guy very happy one day. I sigh. This observation is made while my boyfriend is sitting at home being sad. I hope he's not sad. He's hard to read sometimes. He often makes the same facial expression you make while filling out paperwork.
I think my outfit is losing its excitement. Perhaps a fourth wardrobe change is in order. Red stopped being my color.
Someone is fighting with her boyfriend over the phone. Another girl is on her phone speaking Thai. I'm on my phone blogging.
And I have been back here for more than an hour. I wonder if I should bat my fake eyelashes at a manager and ask for a waitressing job. My typing finger is getting tired so I guess I'll go get naked.

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 ...

Your post caused me to revisit a dusty tome called "The Sociopath Next Door" and reflect that--yes--it really is an arguable declarative describing some overly ambitious salesmanship.
They {it} approach with typical lauditory motives (tones), yet, its standard pedagogical answer to a simple "no" is [the] predictable middle-digit refrain, followed by truculent sighs of their self commiserating rush to whitewash....

HI justice,
I dont know u but it seems obvious that through your blog u let go what ur current mood is.
I think this job helps make ppl moody but i have not said that you are.
It seems to me your askign a lot of question these days and not havingg worked for a few weeks makes it hard to go back i guess.
U seem to have the chance compared to some woman doing this job not to have kids to pay for, gambling habits or god knows what else, hence you bieng able not to work too much and not be that dependant from this job's income.
I cna only waish you happiness and hope you have the job of ur dreams soon and u get out of what u qualify ' a dreadful environment' (i agree)
Good luck,
seb

Perhaps LV has palled on you. Maybe you should blow your cover and go on tour, like cyberdarlings who have web sites and fans around the country. You do it right, you can have more Farewell Tours than Madonna.

I sense a real struggle now than ever before. I have been reading your blog quite a while and I feel like you are at a point where you are really at a crossroads. I don't know which road you will take.......but change is inevitable. so whatever you choose, you will succeed at it. i love your blog....

Hmmm, your boyfriend is sad? I won't even begin to throw rocks in this house, but maybe it's because his sexy, young girlfriend is out taking off her clothes and shaking her booty for some middle-aged strangers? Sorry, call me old-fashioned, but that would make me somewhat melancholy myself.
Hey, it's your life, your body, your self-esteem, and your decision as to what you do with those items. But a beau does introduce some interesting dynamics. Just a man's perspective, but if he has no issues with what you do, than I would have to question his authenticity and his motives.
Again, just my experience, but when it comes to stripping, it's not something that can be done half-heartedly. If you're not having fun, (or at least being a very good actress about it), than we won't be having fun either. No fun, no money.
Sounds like your heart isn't in it anymore. Once your head catches up to your heart, make the move and be done with this. Regardless of what you decide, know that we're all with you .........
