It's very nearly time to give up my favourite bikini.

I bought it for dancing in I think 2010 or 2011 so it's had a good long life. It was always one of my absolute favourite dance outfits and also had enough coverage to wear as a normal 'civilian' swimsuit. It's this gorgeous red-wine colour and I glammed it up by sewing on these rhinestone straps that I re-purposed from a broken pair of heels.

But now the elastic in the bra is largely gone, and there are a few threadbare spots that look ready to start unravelling any time now. I will take off the rhinestone straps and keep them to bling out something else, but I am truly sorry to see this bikini go. Can't seem to find a similar one online to replace it.

Damn, I feel this!

I have some cute bottoms, (sold the top, it was cute too), damn if I can find the style, it worn..
Also, I had a cute peach color bikini that's beyond shot..
I had also a darling tiger print I bought from another dancer, it got stolen..

I kinda have an obsession w/bikini bottoms, I've half a dozen, just the bottoms, I either gotta sell or find 'em matching tops!

Sooo..

Guy is upstairs boffing his gf, w/her 5 year old son present, btw, it's a single room.
It sounds like 2 water buffaloes bowling (he's like 6ft+, 300 lbs)

Also, his other girlfriend's car is in the lot, Idk if she's here or not, she has a 1 yr old. Sometimes the present one watches this baby?

Earlier, I heard knocking, I went to look, gf standing outside the downstairs bathroom door, holding the 5yr old, knocking & telling Mr. wonderful, "you're breaking my heart".

Also, there's been a bag of garbage from an order of take out, I'd bet the rent it's Mr W.'s. It was a little too close to my parked car, before I went out, so I tossed it beside the side entrance (I have my own entrance).
TG, it was gone when I came home, sat there for days.

I can't make this sh** up, seriously

Wow lol and ewwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!! That's just crazy!!!!!!!

I've got major pms belly today. It looks like I'm about 5 months pregnant right now. It doesn't help that my stupid bloated belly is causing me lower back pain too. I went to the store and some random stranger congratulated me on my pregnancy. -_- Fuck you, pms and you're monthly 5lbs of water weight gain that seems to go only to my belly!

My list goes on and on why I don't like Beta's.

The guy I want to bang right now ( for example ) ....... wrote me a wonderful message from an online meet , planned a date 4 days ahead, didn't ask what I wanted to do.
Made a reservation and suggested a time. Fuck Yes.
^ Masculine as hell. Picked up the checks obviously ( even for drinks after which I had my card in my hand for since I suggested the drink meet up an hour later after dinner date ended ).

A Beta would putter around , not choose a day, not choose a place or activity , que to me losing interest very quickly.



May I ask why you don't like beta men?
I've never had one.
* You can have his number.
But, if anything ever happened to you ( he could be a Ted Bundy type, you never know.) I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

It could SO go either way. Wild Card. He might be a sweet person ( but you'll have to do everything in relationship to planning and possibly even physical moves forward ).
If you got the hustler vibe off him ..... he might be one of those hippy hustlers .

I am trying to stay positive but I also have to quit being in denial about the reality that I want to quit this vanilla workplace.

I could work from home part time but it won’t be enough. I realize me being an introvert liking to be independent and not having to answer to a bunch of egotistical dimwits is my career preference.

I feel trapped and unhappy right now. I HAVE to figure a way to leave into something better because I do not agree with how some of these people operate and staying with these dysfunctional colleagues/managers would be like staying in an unhealthy marriage because I don’t think I have better options.

Self: pull it together, you can leave and you have better options. You can do this.

Whirlez, does boffing mean fucking? BTW, I originally read it as buffing lol. I got my period after spotting for a week. Cramps are killing me. The only way tofic it is birth control and that tends to cause weight gain, so hell no. I hate creepy guys hitting on me in stores. I've resorted to wearing a fake wedding ring. It's not helping. I've had three creepy ass truck drivers try to solicit me at gas stations. If that's how "smooth and sexy" they are, no wonder they have to pay for sex.

I hate when I wake up worrying about financial shit. I was thinking that I didn't remember getting an alert about my rent being paid. I've had it on autopay since last year and it apparently ended this month. I'm pissed at myself for forgetting to update the autopay because now I'm going to be paying a $50 late fee. Ugh. I will be so glad to be out of these stupid ass apartments and their $50 fee for every damn thing. $50 fine for this, $50 fee for that. Meanwhile the water damage issue on the ceiling of my bathroom has yet to be resolved, despite having put in a maintenance request every week since May.

We must encounter very different types of gay men. My first (female) roommate was a bit of a hag, so I knew all her gay friends. They were terrified of our other roommate, even though he wasn't bothered by them in the least. They started keeping me at arm's length.. well, I can't pin it down to one event. First, we found ourselves at odds over them using the word "hooha" (which I won't even use, and really don't want to hear from someone who isn't equipped with one). I think what really did it was when one of them said to me something like, "Girl, if I was straight, I would spank that ass and tell you to call me Harambe". So I said to him, "And you would likewise suffer a similar fate to Harambe". According to others who were there, I made it sound so dark that he's scared to talk to me now. Que, sera sera. I have no issues with gay men, I just don't feel any particular affinity or fascination with them, and I place the same boundaries on them that I do on straight men.

I was referring to beta ( straight) guys.

He's definitely beta, because he hasn't called me.

I’m frustrated that I don’t have time to work at the club right now, not even once a week. I’m in grad school and have a part time job on weekends that is related to my field, it’s great experience and I really like the family I work for. But it pays frigging $12/hr! I’m very fortunate in that I’ll be graduating without debt and making such low wages is more of a temporary annoyance for me right now. But damn, I miss earning a real income.

God, I'm so with you on this. I hate my vanilla company nowadays. They just get worse and worse every month. It's not even that I hate my job in particular, but I hate their management. The way they run us into the ground from start to finish on 12 hours shifts and then act like it's no big deal to keep us over, when we probably haven't even gotten a break to eat all day. Slashing our staff. Slashing our supply staff now. Imposing ridiculous restrictions on us for how fast to get shit done, as though the 5-10 extra minutes we might "waste" making sure we have the proper equipment or take a fucking piss would somehow translate to being able to do soooo much more work at the end of the day. /sarcasm

It's gotten to the point where my actual work persona and the way I treat people suffers below my standards because I just shut down and cannot bring myself to give a shit about anything during the day.

I suffered through this long because I told myself it was "paying my dues" and setting me up to get to a more fulfilling company and status in this industry. But in order to even preserve my sanity for dealing with the job, I think I need to step back and go part-time/PRN. There has to be a better way.

So the wrath of Taco Tuesday hit me like a ton of bricks. We got tacos today from a place we hadn't gotten them from before. The tacos were excellent, but it made us all incredibly gassy, so we all spent the rest of the work day tooting our way through it. So I stopped at CVS to get some Beano, and another one started brewing. So I did my best to hold it in, while it practically screamed, "LET ME OUT!". By some miracle, I was able to hold it in long enough to check out, and get outside the door. So I get outside, I think I'm in the clear, and I let go and sound the trumpets of Jericho. And this thing was HUGE! It felt like you could've measured it on the Richter scale.

Then I hear a kid start laughing. I turn around, there's a family with three kids behind me. The kids look gleeful, the parents look horrified, and I'm sure I looked as horrified as they did as I felt the blood rushing to my face. I covered my face with my hands, ran to my car, and drove around the back side of the building so I wouldn't have to see them again.

Oh!
Also, I used to do sampling (where you hand out samples of food product in grocery stores) but there's also liquor,(pays fairly well) & sometimes other stuff (I worked in a pet food store, we didn't give samples, but flyers of products for pets). I handed out sports memorabila @ a hockey game.
I can't recall the names offhand, but look up product sampling, product demos, events, conventions. Look in craigslist under Etc type jobs.

Im really irritated today.

I keep getting flyers from a supermarket I've never been to.
I usually order online from Walmart, which I love doing, and is sooo awesome!
But I needed to go to the bank which is across the street, so I figured why not?
I should have known it was going to be bad when I got there and the parking lot was empty.
The store makes you pay 25 cents for a cart. Huh?
You only get it back if you return the cart.:-\ I know they're trying to cut down on having to pay someone to retrieve them, but seriously? How tacky.
I brought my own grocery bags, because here in California, stores charge for bags.
The market was super limited in everything too.
They offer delivery, but for a yearly fee. It's such BS.
Anyhoo, the worse part was that the checker didn't bag my groceries. AND she had major attitude.
So, there I am, over in the corner, lifting my heavy milk, water, etc. To bag it.
By the time I got home, and with more lifting to get my groceries inside, I wrentched my back.
Was down for the rest of the day, on my heating pad.
Screw them!

In light of the hotel issue I had to cancel 3 appointments today. That annoys me because it's about to be period week and I was counting on that chunk of $ and being able to chill during that miserable time of the month. I'm going to have to go hard on my vanilla job hustle.

^ Argh! Of course it had to show up a few hours after posting this so yep. I'm just gonna chill for the next few days.

I wish you all of the luck and i hope your future career pays well and im not being sarcastic. I would love a part time job paying that, here in Phoenix most of the jobs pay $11 full time with a bachelor’s degree. Unless of course your in a stem field or a very specfic career path. If you dont mind me asking what are you going to school for?

I want to fucking scream. I had like 16-17k followers on chaturbate under a studio account. I had to leave the studio and was told they couldn’t transfer followers. I tried to make a new account but they didn’t approve My ids and then I got My period when they finally did thoroughly ruining new status. I tried like hell but couldn’t get My followers back up. I quit. I make a new account after finding a couple to do an orgy show with and they don’t approve the ids that were approved instantly on their couples account! We get approved days later on My period new status ruined again. I ask them if transferring My followers is possible since they keep emailing My old account username to the same email, and they say I need the studios approval. They email them, I wait days and today find out they can’t do it and never got the email I forwarded them and was CCd in three times!!! I want to give up because I fucking hate them so fucking much but I don’t know any other site for couples camming that’s even fucking worth it. I’m so upset.

( no lectures please on this )

I came back just completely TOAST from this massage / dancer trip.

I think I just am so burnt. I was $84 away from what I'd hoped for and just split. Ha.

I had issues with BOTH hustles ( a massage customer got super grabby at the hotel which I probably should just be grateful it wasn't worse ..... but I'm still feeling so grossed out ( he was kind of pulling at my legs to try to the do face sitting position ) so I forcibly has to say " Do NOT grab at me . Do NOT grab my legs . "
I think I'm still grossed out .
Then I had a club issue too ( grabby guy that only spent $20 ).
It makes the trip sound like a total waste but I'm happy with it overall ...... I think I'm just out of practice with things .
AND I got sloppy. That creeper at the hotel ...... THE IDIOT BROUGHT ME $80 ( normal day time massage price , no upgrades).
He didn't even bring enough to upgrade to a bikini or topless or nude massage. What did he think was going to happen ( barf )?

My boy toy ( he would even describe himself that way , it's not derogatory ) can never see me short notice it seems like.
So now I'm just paranoid. What is it ? GF ? Or does his dick not normally work and has to take a cialis a few hours ahead ? Or what ?

I rarely ask ....... but it's odd short notice is NEVER ok.
I may not see him anymore. I'm getting worried about emotional attachment anyway .

Decided to be nice to another dancer who I considered a friend, and let her have a dance that was supposed to be mine (the customer had agreed to dance with me, but since she hadn't sold any lap dances that day I told him to get her instead). Turns out she'd already made $400 off of one guy earlier and kept him to herself until he left, and then she tried to sneak out without tipping out the DJ.

I should have learned by now to stop trying to be nice to people, but here we are.

I'm getting sick of the trustfundian above me. I had interrupted sleep due to him hammering and moving furniture or whatever the hell he was doing upstairs last night. Also, every time he turns his shower on, it causes water to leak from my bathroom ceiling and whenever he uses his bathroom sink, gross-looking water rises up into mine. This time I heard a noise and when I went to the bathroom, white milky looking water was coming up from the sink. I hadn't used the sink since earlier this morning. I try to avoid using it anymore because of the problems. I called maintenance about it and they said they'd look into it. They showed up, went upstairs to his apartment, and I could hear the maintenance man conversing with trustfundian in their language. When I seen the maintenance man leaving I stopped him and asked him if he had figured out the issue. He had a smirk on his face and said,"There's no problem, m'am", and walked away and drove off. Obviously there is a problem, idiot, when every time this asshole trustfundian showers or uses his sink, it causes problems in my apartment! I am so sick and tired of this shit.

This time I heard a noise and when I went to the bathroom, white milky looking water was coming up from the sink. I hadn't used the sink since earlier this morning. I try to avoid using it anymore because of the problems. I called maintenance about it and they said they'd look into it. They showed up, went upstairs to his apartment, and I could hear the maintenance man conversing with trustfundian in their language. When I seen the maintenance man leaving I stopped him and asked him if he had figured out the issue. He had a smirk on his face and said,"There's no problem, m'am", and walked away and drove off. Obviously there is a problem, idiot, when every time this asshole trustfundian showers or uses his sink, it causes problems in my apartment! I am so sick and tired of this shit.

The problems you're describing aren't necessarily directly tied to your neighbor - that's probably piss poor engineering, and the maintenance guy can't do shit about it. Now perhaps the substance coming into your apartment is, but to correct it would probably require a complete or partial renovation of the building. I have a friend who lived in a rather old four story apartment building. She lived on the first floor, and the wastewater piping was designed in such a way that, whenever somebody flushed a toilet on the fourth floor, a 'slug' of water would come down and cause the toilet bowl in her apartment to overflow.

You'll need to go to building management about this.

When there's so many things I need to get done I become overwhelmed and paralyzed and nothing gets done.

Same! Analysis paralysis.

Dunno who has Wellsfargo.....but fuck them for yesterday or IF it's still going on! I was trying to buy bitcoins without a huge hassle and was told "we cannot guarantee the CASH you deposit today will be available today in your account due to all wellsfargos having a shutdown or whatever he said. I dunno man but I have had so many problems with wellsfargos atms just taking my money and returning the card expecting me to guesstimate what I deposited (I was doing large ho deposits), etc...probably 10 times it happened in a few years and then during the phone call "yes we do see we have an outage at that ATM!" GAHHH no need to investigate give me my cash.....I said to them yesterday "You know what? I think I will do this another day" right in the middle of the conversation and purchase what I need in person... I have no interest in more wellsfargo drama.

I hope the door to your room locks? I have a friend who had such a roommate. Started off doing stuff like that. Then things began disappearing out of her room. It came to a head when... I think it was like $200 or maybe $250 in cash went missing. The roommate's excuse was that she had people over all the time, and maybe one of them did it. Which I shouldn't have to explain the issues that brings up.

I am really fortunate I don't have 'roommate from hell' stories to tell. The one guy I did have as a roommate... fucking lunatic, but any malice he had was directed more at himself. My only real gripe was sometimes I got caught in the crossfire of the pranks him and our other roommate pulled on each other. Like when I turned on the hair dryer and got dusted with baby powder, or the night he took a long string of firecrackers, lit them, then dropped them into a metal trash can and pushed it into her room. Or when she'd tape those little poppers to the toilet seat so they'd go off when someone sat on it. Or they ways they'd embarrass each other in public, and I got caught up in it.

Come to think of it, maybe I do have those stories to tell.

I banked with Wachovia before Wells Fargo took them over, so that all switched over to WF. I think I stuck with them for another six or seven months before I decided to go elsewhere. Though I haven't really found a bank I'd call particularly great. I also have an account with USAA, which actually does offer good incentives for service members and vets, but their accessibility is sorta crap.

So I started doing doordash, and I have only done 5 deliveries. And my customer rating is 3.67! Wtf. That means someone must have left me a 1-star review. And they can end dasher below a 4.2 rating so there's a good chance I can be fired, and I don't know why! I was polite, I checked the food and I arrived early. This is the downfall of these little gig apps. Like uber, lyft, postmates, doordash and etc, there is no way to dispute a false claim against you.

Ha! I put signs up on the fridge, & 2 on the front door..
I put a nasty one saying, hands off food that's not your's, THIEF..that one got torn down::)
We do have locks, but..you're so right, I so don't trust this dude. Who's to say he couldn't break in anyway?
He's a doper so..
I want to get at least a lock for my laptop, at least as a deterrent, if he does break in.

I quit banking with WF in 2013 over a couple serious issues.

That whole company needs a wake up call.

I've heard of people getting much lower ratings on delivery apps even though they have no idea what they did wrong. It's probably something stupid, like they didn't like the food, and they rate "DoorDash" in general badly, not realizing they're rating their delivery driver, who has no part in it (like when patrons refuse to tip a waitress because the kitchen messed up their food...). I have heard though, that DD generally won't deactivate drivers unless they're constantly getting bad reviews. After only 5 deliveries, they may not even be looking too closely at it yet, since one mediocre rating could really screw it up.

I got a 4-star rating on Uber the other day that dropped me lower than I wanted (with not too many rides under my belt), and the feedback from my rider was something along the lines of how "top-rated drivers ask their passengers about temperature preferences and if there's enough leg room." I was like.... -_- It was a super cold night, and up to that point, EVERY single person who had gotten in the car, was complaining about how cold it was. I erred on the side of "almost too hot" in the car, thinking that most passengers would only be in the car long enough to warm up properly. On a few longer-distance rides, I could see it getting too hot for them, but if they don't speak up... am I supposed to keep checking every 10 minutes?? Idk... Maybe. But as far as leg room goes.... I had only done a few rides before I took a break and then saw that review. Every ride in that time period was either 1 person sitting behind the passenger side - so... move behind me if you don't have enough leg room? I'm super short lol Or 1 person sitting behind me, in which case, I have no idea how they could possibly not have enough leg room (cuz, again, super short). Or it was 1 person in the passenger seat and 1 person behind them, sooo... ask the person in front of you to adjust or adjust your own seat if you're in the passenger seat?? Or it was a packed car of 4 people, which probably wouldn't leave much leg room, but how am I supposed to help that? It was just such a weird complaint and reason for giving a lower rating, because I can't exactly reach over and adjust a seat for someone while I'm in the middle of driving?

Yeah, I don't think I could live with someone like that. We have locks on the interior doors here, as well, but the only time I can remember anyone using them.... we have one woman who lives here and she travels a lot for her work, so she's almost never here anymore. Anyhow, she's kind of a wimp with horror movies, and we watched Event Horizon one night. So this scene in particular made her a bit uneasy...


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=giiuqTdBSTc

A couple days after we watched it, everyone else was gone, and I knew she'd be coming back. So I broke out the makeup kit and tried to somewhat duplicate Billy Bob Thornton's look in that scene, then I hid when I heard her car pull in. She came inside, called for us, then started walking to her room. So I fell in behind her with my arms stretched out, and yelled out, "DO YOU SEE?!" as soon as she turned around and saw me. Scared the living shit out of her. She took off running, ran into her room, and locked the door.

I think she hasn't fully forgiven me for that one yet.

That's the nice thing about having a house. I won't have anyone here I feel I need to lock doors on account of.

On the sorta-topic of Uber, how are men just so un-chivalrous these days? The other night, I tried to pick this guy up, and he had a super long driveway. He told me I could turn around in the yard, but it had rained so much, and it was a shitty yard, so as soon as I pulled into it, I got stuck in the mud. He called 2 guy roommates out, who gave me even worse advice of "try driving forward more and just angle your wheels toward the driveway" which I knew wasn't gonna work... got me stuck even more, and between the 3 of them, they couldn't get me out. I ended up ending and refunding his ride. But then they just left me there to figure it out... It was almost 1am, and the original guy claimed he "had" to get going. The 2 guys left with him and drove him. Then, while I was waiting on my tow truck, one of them came back, totally ignored me, and then some other random dude who hadn't bothered to come out and help the first time around, casually wanders out and asks if I have someone coming.

Like, I get it, it's my car and my problem, and I WAS handling it, but wtf is with childish man-boys these days? This isn't even some "they should have been knights in shining armor for me" thing. Even as a woman, I would never have left some poor random person, especially another woman, but even some poor guy, stuck in my yard, in some strange-to-them place, and just bailed, expecting them to stand out in the rain in the middle of the night, figuring out their next move. Unless it was life or death for me to get somewhere, I would have called whoever I was supposed to meet, explained the situation, told them I'd be a little late, and waited with the person to make sure they got out and left ok. If I HAD to leave (and, I'm sorry, but who needs to be somewhere at 1am?), I would've asked one of my roommates if they could stay with them and make sure they were ok. Among 4, apparently grown-ass, men, not a single one of them could even pretend to give a fuck?

I had to call 5 different "24-hour" tow places to even get an answer, and waited 25 minutes for them to show up. I spent $85 on a tow truck that night and then couldn't go out anymore and make up the money cuz my car was filthy.

The thing with '24 hour' towing and recovery companies is that they're not sitting in the office waiting for a call. Typically, what happens is that they'll go home for the night. When you call, you'll call... depends. Could be a dispatcher who is on the clock, or it could be a manager at home. Then they call whoever they decide to send out. When I ran a wrecker, I ran a B rollback, and I would take it home with me. But for some of our employees, this wasn't possible, so they'd have to drive to the yard to get their wrecker when they were called out. A 25 minute turnaround actually isn't bad under those circumstances, but it's no fun being the one who has to wait for it.

I'm always surprised that there are people out there who actually give bad reviews for these services. I mean, I'll give a bad review if the service was absolutely horrible... but if I want to be driven somewhere or get food delivered, I don't need to be treated like royalty. Politeness is just fine.

Ahhhhhh, a warm toilet seat.
