Work was interesting last night, slow but interesting none the less. It was dead from 12a.m. til about 3:a.m. then suddenly cars were pulling in the parking lot in droves, which is unusual for a Monday night moving in to the wee hours of Tuesday morning ya know? Well, I had plenty of crappy tables and made little in tips but this one table, a couple in smoking, they were really cool. Everytime I would leave their table they were chatting quietly back and forth about how they knew me from somewhere, but couldn't place it. I pondered for a while about where our paths might have intersected, but I couldn't recall waiting on them before and I don't think they ever came to any of my live performances at Czar's 505 Club, so I let it go and we chatted about other things. They paid for their check, left me a fat tip, and walked out the door. As I was busing their table the girlfriend came running back in with her man trailing behind her, and she said, "We figured out where we've seen you before!!! You're a Suicide Girl!!! My boyfriend and I have a subscription and saw your set, wow I can't believe we're meeting a real Suicicde Girl!!!" after she gushed a bit longer and made me blush with all the lovely compliments and things, we exchanged myspace info and parted ways again. I sat down stunned. I couldn't believe I was reacongnized in public as a Suicide Girl and I'm not even Pink yet, I'm a limbo girl, a Hopeful and yet they love my set that was rejected! My co-workers were shocked too, especially since no one believes I'm trying to become a model for SG. One of the cooks said, "Can I have an autograph Miss Nude Model, that way if you get famous I have the first autograph and can sell it for a lot of money on Ebay someday." I thought it was amusing about the autograph and I was even more amused at the fact that I was reacognized. It's funny, about 4 years ago everyone knew me from the flyers all over down town that advertized my live shows at Czar's, Mickey's Pub, Bouy's, The Box Factory, so on and so forth....they would say, "Hey aren't you that Blues singer?" Then after I had the baby I stopped performing live, the band moved on, and so did the rest of the world. My demos are collecting dust on peoples shelves, and I no longer get asked if I'm that Blues singer chick from the flyers that no longer line store windows and telephone polls. Now, I have a new reputation, which is weird because I didn't have to advertise myself, I'm not even Pink yet, but the way that couple was gushing and such, I think it's only a matter of time before I go Pink. Hopefully word will spread and if I keep getting rejected then maybe I will have to point out to staff that I'm becoming popular enough to be demanded by the public If the public pants and begs long enough the master will have to quench their thirst for more of me So I had to point out what a fabulous evening I had from that point on, I was smiling bright. When my GM arrived to relieve me this morning I sat down with him and told him all about it, he was just as excited for me as I was. Don, is the best GM. He let me borrow a chair and use a trainer bow tie (black) from work for a photo shoot and made me promise that he could see my pics since it was the property of our restaurant that he was being nice enough to loan me. My GM just wants to see me naked, he's just to shy to admit it So I think it's time I go pink, getting reacognized in public while waiting tables at my job tells me it's about time to make me Pink and get more shoots up. I'm in demand now, the girlfriend, Shannon was her name, she said she can't wait to see more of my stuff.....so make this Hopeful pink!
