so last night i was in my "existentialism in literature and film" class, and we were screening a movie in this small theater...

i mean theater in the sense of: there was a stage, not a big movie screen...

and it reminded me of my old burlesque show, and i just wanted to jump on the stage so bad.

i'm one of those people that loves an audience. that's because i'm so vain, i guess.

anyhoo, when i was still living in richmond, my best friend and i started this awesome burlesque show. it was like a live silent film (or atleast that's what we were going for). there was no talking, only music, dancing, and melodramatic acting; there was a plot, which was furthered by a power point slide show that displayed images as well as story-board screens featuring the dialogue. you know how in a silent film, you'll see the actors for a few minutes, and them a screen pops up with an ornate boarder and a few words of narration and/or dialogue? yeah, that's what we had going. we had a lot of success with it and i must admit it was one of the best times i've ever had.

and now i miss that so much!

i'm taking all these classes and working on my master's and everything is so serious. i wish i could start a new show or atleast BE in one, but in this conservative town, that is just not feasible. did you know you can't even buy a porn here? AND the "tittie bars" are actually "bikini bars!"

richmond was really receptive to the "half naked, tattooed girls throwing dildoes and confetti in the air" thing. that's one of the things i miss about home.

another thing that sucks about this small louisiana town is that there are so few rock n roll chicks! doesn't one of you hot bitches live near me??? jeez.

...'cause if you did live nearby, we could jump on a stage, make out, dance, and throw some dildoes into the air and call it a show. people love it. i promise.
