I'm starting to feel claustrophobic in my relationship / and / or the living space we share. I'm not sure what the solution is .... we probably should have upgraded our " starter " one bedroom in the city already but we are still in it ( going on 9 months ) .
I need to come up with some strategies for this in the next few days.

I might be about to do something crazy regarding school. It would require being extremely strict with a very very set schedule though and I've never been very good at that. After next weekend, I'm going to try a month of changing some drastic health habits for 30 days just to see if I can actually force myself to prioritize in the manner that I need to accomplish a goal like that. I don't think I've ever completed a 30 day challenge, but I need to stop wasting so many large chunks of time with my life and just get to doing all the things I want to do, and I think I need to spend a year or two of my life hunkering down like a crazy entrepreneur in order for that to happen. Once I'm done, I'll take a year off to wander, travel, and think about where I want to actually settle down with all my education and formulate a career. But in order to get to that, I don't want to take another 5 years of slowly drudging through everything. I want to get serious and a little insane.

Last night is the third time I've overheard dancers talking about the difference between ligers and tigons. Apparently these are real, and they actually look pretty different.

So I have not cammed at all this month. Been doing texting and other side gigs. Who knows if I will ever return to camming. Been doing it for 7 years and I am ready for a change because my daughter will be starting Pre K in the fall :)

Some total stranger that I talked to on the street once called me today and left a voicemail with just enough information to remember the conversation we had. I really don't remember giving her my phone number. I'm really creeped out.

I'm creeped out for you, just reading that.
Hope it's just a simple case of you just forgetting that you gave her your number.

I think it's insane that cosmetology school is so expensive. I know it's a lot of information, there is a lot of equipment required, and I'm not saying it's not worth a decent amount of money to learn. But the fact that a one-year cosmetology program literally costs as much as an in-state master's degree or 2-3x what a paramedic program costs.... is a little ridiculous.

So I could get a two year degree and take over my dads business when he retires (I already work part time for him but to really take it over I'd need an assoiates). I have experience already, and it's good money! But it doesn't exactly get my blood pumping, ya know? It's an engineering degree and i fucking hate math and technical shit. Yeah....

I really want to change the style of my hair, but I can't find a good picture for showing what I'm looking for that isn't shorter than what I actually want... I do not trust hairdresssers - at all. Every time I've attempted to show one a picture of what I want but say "But not that short - I want to maintain the length to *wherever*" they always chop it the fuck off. And when I say "Oh... that's really short...." they're like "It looks just like the picture." Bitch, did you listen to anything I said. They never do. Not about length or the color or whether or not I want layers... I've pretty much learned that unless I can find something completely simple to accomplish and have a picture of exactly what I'm looking for, I'm not gonna get what I want.

Preach. But I had this realization yesterday that I think I've finally reached the point where financially dancing is no longer mandatory to pay my bills. I'm not quitting because I'd like to build up my emergency fund and get rid of about five grand in debt but my car will be paid off in September so that is doable in about a year which is good since I'll be 37 in June and I don't see myself physically being able to do it past 40 though I'll probably still look good enough. I don't know, I've worked so hard to get to this point and now I feel kind of weird about it?

I'm putting this here so a lot of you will see it- today I ran into an escorting client of mine unexpectedly & he ignored me. I'm not mad at him but it reminded me of Sex Worker 101- always charge as much as you can initially for a client/customer...& see if you can get tipped on top of that.
There is ZERO guarantee that any given customer will be a regular. Due to many random events this guy into was/is never gonna be a steady source of income for me. Oh well. Your window of years for maximum earnings is short. Everyone knows that, some clients & customers are hoping to take advantage or wear you down so they can get an ego boost on top of getting off. Your JOB as a self employed person is to look out for your best interests.

LE is having a field day in my area. Two of my friends who were working for escort agency got busted by LE and another one went down, too. Earlier I received a text message to my burner number from an unfamiliar phone number. It said, "got a job for u. wanna make some money? $300" I googled the number and came up with this: "It's police posing as an escort service in an attempt to bust escorts." and another one that just said, "Police".
Weird. The only ad I had up with that burner number was my bikini house cleaning ad. If it was LE why would they bother with that horseshit?

Wendi, maybe they think the ad is a front, they're desperate for work/quota/vice is desperate to bust? That's creepy/scary. You'd think they would have better things to do then chase down some ad.

I'm not surprised. I had a detective calling my phone because one of my escorting ads had a cute reference to my car, which I think the detectives thought was a reference/code for stealing cars (a serious problem in that particular city.) I only missed the call because I was driving & when I hit return on the number it went to the detective's voicemail. I really lucked out.
This is why vague wording & NO talking about illegal activity is crucial to escorting.

I really wish certain people in my life would try to understand that I am literally exhausted all the time no matter how much sleep I do or don't get. It is very frustrating and most certainly hurtful to be called lazy. I've always for as long as I can remember been quite tired but it has grown a lot worse over the last few years to where I'm no longer OCD like I use to be when he came to cleaning. My ex spilled Kool-Aid in the fridge once and I got so upset & immediately had to clean it up. I use to clean my home constantly. Now...I'm different. The tiredness/exhaustion is to the point where my body physically just wants to sleep all day. Keeping myself awake is difficult when I'm just soooo fucking fatigued.
One of my favorite YouTuber's released a video talking about Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I think with all the research I've done over the past few years on it, this seems to co-relate to how I feel each and everyday. I guess my random thought is more or less reaching out to see if anyone else deals with this or has been diagnosed with this.

Wording can be tough. Nowadays every little thing can get misconstrued. I got another text that said, "how about bj only? no sex $300" LE and their magic number of 300..haha. I deleted my ad.

^That's really scary, and it pisses me off that cops are going after petty shit like that. A bikini house cleaning ad? Really?! Fucking cops.
There was this older and reeeealllly drunk guy in the club the other night. He said he was a retired police officer from NYC. He was so hammered, he couldn't even hold his drink up right. He asked me if I knew where he could buy some cocaine. I was like, "No, sorry, I can't help you there. I don't mess with that shit." He kept asking me about it though. It started to really freak me out. But if he was trying to bust someone, he wouldn't have been so wasted, nor would he have stated he was a retired cop. But still.....

When I'm extremely depressed, I get really tired like that. But once I get out of my depression, my energy returns. So, it could be depression, or it could be a sign of another illness. Have you gone to the doctor to get your thyroid and/or hormone levels checked? Or, it could be a vitamin deficiency.

I'm pretty sure I'm depressed & stress of having to move in the next few weeks doesn't help. I have been to a doctor with only resulting in being diagnosed as type 2 diabetic. The doctor said that it doesn't necessarily relate to one another and more testing will have to be done.

I guess my random thought is more or less reaching out to see if anyone else deals with this or has been diagnosed with this.
I was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome about 8 years ago, I have been living with it for 12 years. I posted about it in this thread and listed all my supplements here: https://www.stripperweb.com/forum/showthread.php?215619-Auto-immune-disorders
It took me years to get an official diagnosis. I saw half a dozen specialists, and nobody could tell me what was going on. Meanwhile I was suffering from neurological and gastro symptoms, extremely poor immune system w/ chronic bacterial infections like strep, and severe fatigue. Unfortunately, there is no blood or imaging test that can reveal it, but there is a formal diagnostic process that involves 3-5 symptoms within 5 different categories (or something like that). Many doctors won't give you a diagnosis until they have eliminated every other possibility, which is why it often takes years. I finally eliminated all other possibilities and found a naturopath that actually believed in CFS (many mainstream doctors don't think its a legitimate disease-- probably because it primarily effects women, they think its just "hysteria" or some bullshit). There is no prescription specifically for CFS, but many supplements and vitamins have been shown to help.
One of the weird symptoms that might be present and indicates a very real possibility of CFS is heightened sense of smell. I can smell when bread is about to go moldy days before any mold is visible. I can also smell when women are on their periods from across the room. When my CFS is bad, my nose also "smells" things that aren't really there and mixes up smells. If this happens to you, you should start searching for a doctor who takes your complaints seriously and documenting your symptoms now.

I really hope I can get into somewhere to fix my hair before Sunday. One of my clients was going to spend part of our time together Sunday helping me with new photos and I am not feeling this hair. My stylist went way overboard on the blonde highlights, and instead of looking like a sex worker, I look like I'm about to drop my kids off at soccer practice and then go file some expense reports at the office while sipping my venti espresso something something.... It's not a bad look, if that was who I am, but it certainly does not scream "I am fantasy girl that you wanna give lots of money to."

Are you supposed to get someone a gift for a bachelorette party?
I was just planning on buying my friend drinks and paying for her, but my mom is like shocked that I didn't get her a gift. I'm bringing some super hot heels that I bought that are too small for me. She is a size smaller so I told her if they fit they're hers. but if they don't that means I have no gift. And she knows im bringing them because I texted her a picture of the shoes. Shit im leaving in a few hours what do I do?

I don't recall ever buying someone a gift for their bachelorette party. The only gifts I've ever seen people bring are usually "gag" gifts like penis shaped candy or something. Our generation has been getting more mindful of how ridiculously expensive it is for people to attend all the events associated with a wedding, and I doubt most people bring bachelorette party gifts anymore, or that brides-to-be expect them. The last one I went to, we got gift bags of goodies. If no one in that circle has mentioned presents, I wouldn't worry about it.

There's this guy from back home who I've known for a couple years but always just as friends. We've hooked up like twice after going out and partying together but that's it. Anyway recently we've been talking to each other alot more and more flirty.. and he keeps saying he wants to date me and 'wants us to work'. It just seems really out of the blue to me because we haven't seen each other in months. Why is he so into me like that all of a sudden? He said he used to look at my instagram when I was with my ex and he would 'be so salty'. Which I was surprised to hear because I never got a vibe from him that he was into me like that.. I remember once we went out and he was saying he doesn't care if I wanna meet other guys because we're "cool like that" lol.
The only thing that's kind of annoying me is he keeps asking for pictures and sending me dick pics lol. Oh and he told me he doesn't want me "fucking anybody else". Like why would I start sending you pictures and be exclusive when I haven't seen you in months and we're in two different states? He's also an athlete so I have a hard time believing that he isn't talking to anyone else and is only into me. Idk this is just out of nowhere to me and a little weird. He's coming out here in a couple weeks so we'll see if we even have chemistry like that in person since he's always just been a friend to me. He is hot though lol. We shall see.

^ Probably the same reason why exes always come back. They're feeling lonely, horny, and not getting much, if any, action. Guys seem to think that if you had those sexy feelings and slept with them before, maybe you'll feel that way again for them and hook up. The reason that he's telling you that he wants to date and doesn't want you fucking anybody else, while sending you dick pictures and asking for your pictures, is because he wants to get laid. Men will tell you anything if it can get them in your pants. I'm not some man hater. I'm just old, I guess and been around the block in that situation many times. If you think he's hot and you want to hook up with him again, go for it. Just be wary of the exclusive dating line.

Ok, one of my female friends who has no idea about the sex work business recently started camming and is totally clueless. Some guy bought a show off of her and she said that he told her he was from our area. She said that he offered her $500 to meet up in person and she's seriously thinking about doing it. I told her don't do it because a.)It's the internet. Anybody can talk up a huge game via the internet about how rich they are b.) Total stranger. Just because someone gives you a first and last name doesn't always mean that's their real name c.)$500 is a lot of money. If someone has that kind of money, why would he be sitting there, watching a random model in a chatroom when they could afford a high price callgirl? d.) I'm not entirely convinced that some kind of law enforcement doesn't sit around monitoring webcams for "professional" purposes. I mean, if pigs can legally fuck an escort and then turn around and bust her, that's scary enough(http://www.mlive.com/news/index.ssf/2017/03/michigan_police_can_have_sex_w.html). Maybe I'm super paranoid. Okay, not maybe..I am definitely paranoid these days.

Ugh well that's depressing to hear but not surprising lol. I just didn't think he strictly wanted to get in my pants because we've already had sex a couple times. And he's back in southern california where theres a million hot girls everywhere so I assumed it's easy for him to get laid. Idk I'm just gonna see how it goes when he's out here.

Men are just not reliable.
My FWB (male) from last year kind of disappeared on me & it's for the best. For YEARS my older female friends have pointed out it's better to make new male friends than to have this fairy-tale lingering hope you can always keep a friendship/relationship. Life is really depressing in that regard (that people come and go.) But it does protect you from being exploited or played by someone who knows you TOO well...
