SAME. My nerves are already frayed and the main line hasn't even come through

A burlesque performer (me) in the very early stages of getting costumed. My hair is in rollers and I’ve got plain black underwear on along with purple and silver pasties with white tassels dangling, ready to be twirled.  My body is visible from about chin to hip and if you look very closely, you can just barely see the shimmer of the body lotion Anna recommends.

Always take Anna’s advice! This stuff is fabulous.

Saw a rabbit eating the clover in the backyard first thing this morning. Haven't had a backyard bunny in months and months, so I was very pleased.

Oh no I just got choked up thinking about how wonderful it is for a kid who is fresh to being out in the world on their own to know that they can come home and their dad will be waiting to pick them up, no matter the hour.

There is something about not sleeping that knocks my Perspective Meter all askew. My ability to gauge how I am supposed to feel about things is diminished and it starts a spiral that sounds similar to your experience. And the way out of it is to get some sleep, but alas.

We will not stop. You have no idea how many insufferably persistent people are behind this.

See you next Saturday.

I had a first date last night and while it was fine, there will not be a second date. There were enough little red flags to add up to some big ones. But honestly, the fact that he said "anyhoo!" at least half a dozen times was the real deal breaker.

My kid is a steel hauler and he just told me he almost hit 4 figures fueling up his big old truck today. I mean it's over 180 gallons but still.

Recklessly changing up my choreo mere hours before getting on stage, surely this will be fine and not result in 45 seconds of unplanned improv.

I mean, if they reverse their policies to embrace DEI and ALSO they come out with THE splashiest line of pride merchandise, then maybe I would go buy a towel from them now and then. But it turns out I can live without them pretty easily.

A promo image for Viola Vainglory presents Burlesk at Sid Gold's Nashville, March 11. Featuring Bex Revenge (me! a blond lady who is side eyeing you while trying to keep her dress from falling off), Schatzi Love (an adorable dark haired beauty giving you a cute little smirk as she lays on her side), and Tarte Nouveau (looking absolutely fierce with lots of red lighting, snarling at you, possibly putting a curse on you)

I like how Tarte and I look like we are plotting the most sinister of evils and Schatzi is in the middle like get a load of these two, let me be cute.

I am trying to chose which burlesque act to perform this week. Two choices and I love them both!

It was a huge increase, as much as 40% for some people. Their explanation is that it had not been properly increased in the last decade or so, so now they have to catch up, which doesn't seem like it should be MY problem!

Finally got the statement from my mortgage company reflecting the big ole property tax increase our county did recently. My house payment is going up by about $150, which I do not love and am going to have to figure out how to handle.

While the time change is absolutely going to fuck up my sleep for weeks, I am so glad that I can start going for evening walks again. I really do love a walk after dinner.

I went for a walk this morning, on basically the same neighborhood route I've been walking for a decade and this spring, there are daffodils blooming by the sidewalk. It's the side of the street without houses, so that means someone probably just planted them so they could see them on their walk.

Picked up a cordless iron in the Aldi Aisle of Wonders and it's a little bit life changing?
