Well, that was flattering!

Last night was a gal pal's bachelorette party, and rather than do the whole (yawn) penis cake and whatnot, it was decided that we would instead go out for a nice dinner followed by drinks and oh yeah, let's not forget a burlesque show. So, gussied up we got, and hit the town.

Dinner was fun, drinks were tasty, and as we headed down to the cabaret, I wound up a few steps behind my companions. By the time we reached the bouncer (a lovely doll who wound up being the wildly entertaining final performer of the evening), I suppose it appeared that I could have been with that group of girls just ahead of me, or I could have been on my own.
The doll said something to me as I fumbled for my ID.
"Excuse me?"
"Are you with the show?"
"Hmm? Well, I'm here to see the show."
"Oh, then yeah, I need to see your ID please. With your hair and your makeup and your outfit, I thought you might have been one of the performers tonight. You look great!"

GUSH!

(After the show, I stopped for a moment to speak with the MC about a mutual acquaintance, and he, too, asked if I was a performer. Glee!)

Seanna, I was actually trying to determine what the proper balance of liquor would be to get me to go out on stage, and yet not fall over. Turns out that there ISN'T a balance for that. But I'll cheer you on, pasties or not!

OOOOOOhhhh shall we be seeing some Wink-ified burlesque someday? Man, I wish I could have gone out with you gals, I just love girls night out!!

(By the way I just joined a troop but am not going down to pasties. I'm a pick up girl and if I ever do a routine it still won't be down to pasties. I just CANT do it for some reason!)

:) everytime I'm out of town, by the way I'm dressed I'm always asked if I'm either with whatever the towns burlesque troop/and or roller derby team, it's fun. When I go to Memphis particurally Beal street or Graceland I've had foreign people think I'm working and wanna take photos of me (them) I've had people try to pay me, I getta bang out of it
