Never let a dude cook in your kitchen?

I worked the Thursday before Christmas. I felt kind of sick at work, mostly because I had been out drinking the night before as well as earlier that day.

I had a customer in who I spent the entire night sitting with save a few dances here and there. He only gave me $300 or so, but I was feeling too crappy to get up and work.

He's moving across the country in a few weeks. I'm somewhat relieved by this because I think he's got quite a crush on me, and he's too sweet-I don't want to hurt his feelings.

I was shaking my ass for some old guy I was dancing for and he made the comment, "It winked at me," referring to my asscheeks slapping together and then separating exposing my asshole. That's when I realized my job is kind of gross. Ha.

Ga tech kid came over last night and we made waffles with my new waffle iron. He bought me a mixing bowl for christmas, since I didn't have one for waffle making. The waffles turned out pretty delicious.

I think this kid kind of likes me. I'm not sure what to do, or how I feel about that. I guess I like him. He definitely has some qualities that the ex didn't, which I appreciate...but I still find myself missing the ex. We had a more playful (when we werent hating eachother) relationship, which I liked. I'm going to give this new guy some more time. I think he'll grow on me.

I'm driving my friend to the abortion clinic tomorrow, that will be a blast!

life without work

I haven't been working much at all this month. I think i've worked a total of 5 nights so far...

I spent the whole weekend in Atlanta.

Saturday morning I went to my friend's graduation reception/lunch thingy. I got to meet her entire family. Very traditional southern. Super religious, super friendly, somewhat racist...delicious food-making abilities. After the lunch we were all supposed to go back to her condo (all being me and her friends; family not included) and drink in preparation for the night ahead, but graduating girl freaked out and decided she wanted to spend the rest of the weekend at her parents' house so she left.

Her roommate and I decided we were going to go out regardless. Ga tech kid came along, which was useful because the bar we went to happened to be charging a cover, but since he used to work there we got in for free. He also drove and bought us libations. Once the night was over he dropped my friend off and we went back to his place, per usual.

The next morning we went and got breakfast and hung out a bit and then I decided to meet back up with my friend from the night before and watch the Falcons game at a nearby venue. We arrived at said venue at 4:30 and left around 11:00. She used to work at another restuarant with the manager there so we got a few free drinks out of that. There was also this company christmas party thing going on, which started at 9:30. I suppose the courteous thing to do would have been to move downstairs as to not interrupt the party, but we decided to make things as awkward as possible and stay.

After we get home my friend is acting a little weird. I confront her about this weirdness and she confesses to me that she is with child. wtf. Apparently the guy she's been hooking up with impregnated her, so yeah. She keeps trying to call him to inform him of this, but because he's a doucheface he isn't answering his phone. She finally decides to text him the news. Nothing like finding out you knocked some chick up through a text.

Speaking of texts, the ex texted me the other morning. I hadn't texted or called him for over 2 weeks so I guess he was due. He acts annoyed whenever I contact him, but when I go too long without contacting him, well you know. I think he may have some sort of sense that allows him to know when I'm dating someone. It seems he always starts trying to talk and hang with me once I get with someone else. He has no way of knowing these things, though...

I'm still undecided about ga tech kid at this point. He calls me a lot. Almost every day. I usually answer about 1/3 of the time. Despite this he remains stoic and lacking in affect. I can tell he's bothered by my job yet knows that he doesn't have the standing to say much about it at this point. We'll see how that pans out. I like him when I'm drunk and couldn't care less about him otherwise. Maybe this will change with time.

My social life

So I've kind of been hanging out with ga tech kid for the past few weeks.

I've realized that I have a hard time hanging out with men when I'm sober. I just don't like them. Everything about them annoys me to the point of ruining my mood. Maybe I'm just conditioned from work to associate with men in an inebriated state.

So tech kid. Hung out with him this weekend and a few times last week. He's cool but I only want to see him when I'm drunk. His affect is so flat it cracks me up. He does have a sense of humor but it's pretty dry which is awesome.

Him and a friend of his met myself and a friend at a bar. When he arrived there was a group of probably 7 guys around my friend and me. Of course...we drank. And drank...and drank some more. His friend kept congratulating him and telling him 'good job', 'nice work' in regards to me and it was hilarious, if a bit awkward.

The friend seems like someone who I would have fun going out and drinking with because I got the feeling that he's a bit of an alcoholic party dude. Restaurant people usually are. Tech kid is a bit of an anomaly in that regard, doesn't seem to be a huge partier...though he does drink and go out (which is nice!).

I've been very lazy as far as work is concerned. I have months where I'm at work all the time and really motivated, and then I have months like this where I have to force myself to make it in twice a week. Meh.

A friend from out of town in coming in next week and we're (a bunch of people I know from high school) all gonna hang out and do acid. I'm excited because, believe it or not, I've never done acid. For some reason I've always been terrified of hallucinogens so I've always stayed away. Kind of funny that I'll try meth or heroin but am nervous about acid and shrooms.

It's slightly snowing out right now.

That's why I say 'hey man nice shirt.'

Just got back from my date with the bouncer. He was cute. Younger than I'm used to, 27...He also doesn't drink or do any drugs. He's been to rehab a few times and he's been clean for 2 1/2 years, so yeah. I guess I'll hang out with him again.

A few hours before my date ga tech kid called. I have hung out with him a few times in the past two weeks and we've talked on the phone quite a bit. I don't know what to make of him. He's very...stoic. I kind of like it because it gives me the chance to be the animated one. I'm hanging out with him tomorrow night.

I don't really have any sort of feelings or chemistry with either of these guys (maybe ga tech kid a little), but I need something to pass the time. I miss the ex.

I made $1,100 at work last night which was nice. I lucked out.

I had sat with little asian man for most of the night and made about $200 off him and then he left.

A few minutes later I was called to stage two.

A nerdy looking dude came up and tipped me on stage two and I made a comment referencing his shirt. He was so thrilled that I knew the meaning behind his shirt that he tipped me a $20 on stage. After my set I went and danced for another guy who had tipped me and then returned to nerd guy. About 2 minutes after I sat down the waitress came over with a bucket and bottle of champagne in hand and asked the guy if he liked me. He responded that he kind of loved me and then she said the magic words.

"Well, your friend is back in room 6 and he's paying $500 for an hour for you and your girl of choice so go on back."

Score!

So we go back to room 6 and talk about nerdy shit for a while. I dance a little and there's a lot of champagne and shots. The other guy has two girls back in the room with him and he's drunk. I don't even know how much time goes by, but eventually both guys leave and it's the end of the night. I figured I had only been back there an hour (the money is on credit card) so I'm estimating my nightly income to be around $600-$700.

When I go back to the office to collect my cash, low and behold the manager hands me 2hours worth of vip money. YAY! One of my easiest nights ever.

I'm going on a date with one of my bouncers on Thursday...wtf.

You look familiar

Work went pretty well last night. It was the first night I worked since Monday (which was pathetic). I didn't work much this week because I got a pretty nasty black eye Tuesday and it was too swollen and unsightly to exhibit at work. Last night it was easy enough to cover with makeup, though I kept going back into the dressing room to make sure no bruising could be seen.

Speaking of the dressing room-they redid the entire thing. It looks much nicer. Strip club dressing rooms are notoriously shitty.

They also hired about 20 new girls. Most of the new ones are pretty trashy looking so I'm not too annoyed. I guess they want the house fees, but I feel like having crappy looking girls is detrimental to the club's money in the long run.

Speaking of new girls, the house mom was telling me a story about a girl they hired last week. Apparently she had a 1/2 hour vip and came out after ten minutes. She told the floor man that they were done and he informed her that they still had 20 minutes remaining. She then said "well I blew the guy and he came already so we're done." Now this is something I would say sarcastically but this girl was serious. The house mom had to then explain to her how prostitution is illegal and how what she did was considered prostitution. I guess her final words were "so we can't do that here?". Needless to say, she no longer works there.

Last night I had an hour vip with a customer who I've had before. It was funny because he tipped me on stage and I knew that I recognized him, but couldn't place him. He said I also looked familiar but couldn't remember why. I went and talked with him and did 5 dances for him. Then he asked about vip and asked if I partied. BAM. Those words triggered my memory and the mystery was solved. He was my first vip customer after coming back from colorado. The one who did tons of coke in vip. The one who kept "complaining" that I ripped him off, but not in a pissy way.

I reminded him of our previous night together and reminded him that I was a pretty clean dancer. "Oh yeah..." "Let's go to vip anyway."

So we went and both did quite a bit of party substance and he kept asking to do lewd things to me and I kept denying him. Almost identical to how it went last time. Despite his requests I like the guy. Even though he's a hornball he isn't physically pushy and I get the feeling he's more so playing around than being serious. Plus, he's generous with his coke.

One sucky thing about saturdays is that the vip rooms fill up pretty quickly so if you get any vip requests after 11:30 you're probably not going to get a room. I had a guy come tip me on stage and tell me that he wanted to pay for his friend to go to vip for an hour. He said he'd pay $500. I went to go reserve a room and there was a 2 hour wait. Of course they weren't going to be there in two hours and I missed out on $500. Oh well.

Little asian man was there so I sat with him for the remainder of my night occasionally dancing on the table.

Grand total for the night was $600 and change. Would have been more but I accidentally over tipped the dj by $50-gave him $100 instead of $50 because I forgot about my credit card money in which 10% automatically goes to the dj. Oh well again.

Little asian man was in so I sat with him a good bit of the night.
