Weight A Minute

Sometimes, the anticipation of a big move is scary, daunting and stressful.  But for me, it was exhilarating.  I was looking forward to a huge new place, new people and so many new opportunities.  I was bored in Tampa - I felt trapped in a role that wasn't really for me.  Kind of like forcing…

AND?

I started with my dance classmates.  Some of them were young, still living with parents - or at least highly dependent on Mom and Dad - so the chances that they'd be interested in performing for peanuts was very high.  I also enlisted the help of a couple of friends who had some dancing chops.…

Stripping 101: It’s not for the Weak

Being the perfectionist that I am, I was way too eager to become the best little stripper I could possibly be.  I took it as a challenge.  And I went at it in a way only I could...with unrelenting and slightly obsessive fervor.  I worked on my bootyshaking, which proved to be fruitless at first. …
