The mariime Tattoo Convention was a blast!Dispite many difficulties my fire show went reallywell,the crowd was very obliging.Here are a couple pics,more of my Pirate costume coming soon,and if I'm lucky I'll get a copy of a photo I got taken with Sailer Jerry Swallow!
I also got to meet Lucky for the first time,he is funny as hell and really genuine.I asked him for industry advice,and first off he said-"don't do it".haha then he told me to find my niche,put on a good show.oh and he told me to go to vegas.

BLAH.Winter you are my worst nemisis!
This was a pretty long ass week,but I feel spring coming.Ijust got booked for 3-4 gigs in june,and my first full circus production.
edit.

yay I have a gig thursday and my website is coming along as well as my promo video.I am very exited.I can't decide what to do this summer,its going to take guts to commit to performing full time,but it would also be nice to take a break and accept a contract at the place I was working in a provincial park last year.
I baught A Fine Balance,I'll be reading away at least an hour or 2 today.
A question for you,what makes a person in your opinion smart?

I had a big weekend last week,I also did a shoot in a chop shop!With Sarah Devennes and hairstylist Eden,and a cute new model Sam.

First person to ask for it gets a little print for V day.

I'm staying in sick today,a cold is trying to get ahold of me,and I'm feeling sorry for myself.I've got a wicked case of the winter blues.I've got to take a trip soon or I think I'll go crazy.
No one is hiring fire eaters for v day either.Theres only so much the gym can distract a girl,no one does anything here in the winter.Its just dead air till the end of february.
I'm not a young lady but life puzzles me at the best of times.I've got this issue swishing around in my brain and no real way to let it out.mm brain stew.

what do you guys think of my new cotume?I'm looking for music for a new burlesque fire act-something gypsy jazzish and a bit wierd.

yay!I'm doing a photoshoot with vintage cars next week!I'll be adding some to sell.
Other than that I'm getting ready to perform at the maritime tattoo convention in may,and a very amazing secret video project.
I've been trying to feed my brain these day but it seems hard to find a groove.

I'm looking for new penpals.I have a penchant for writing letters and sending them snailmail.Book buddies too.
Anyone know how to change sg profile info?I'm having the hardest time .....
I'd give anything to be back here at this time in my life.at home in my own skin.Does anyone know how to navigate sucesses and failures?

Winter on the east coast is soo lonely.Normally I try not to complain about this because obviously I am living here for the 5th winter in a row-I know it will be like this-I do.
It does something to my brain.Its kindof like shutting down.No highs no lows,No intense feelings at all really.
I miss montreal like crazy this time of year.I miss my friends who live far away.
Luckily gigs are coming up and there is lots of work to be done.
I spend about 15 hours a week training,going to the gym.not to mention making costumes.
I am raising money to buy more costume bits
,so I'll be selling prints.Watch out for my prints for sale folder.
