I have felt the same way this week I did not work at all. For me it's more than just the dreaded bs stupid blah blah blah of trying to sell a dance. I literally can't get out of bed. I just can't- I have been paralyzed with anger.It's so weird to not be able to do anything even though I need the $.
I have a super fucked up family and trying to confront all of this anger from the past has just been too much for me to handle. Plus the fact that for me this whole year has been brutal. 2011 can't get here soon enough. I wish I could drink myself into oblivion but I have a kidney stone. When ever I drink the pain is usually really bad the next day and I have already had to go to the emergency room a few times in the last year. But today I got some help at trying to cope with my anger from the past. So I know I will get through this.
I don't have the $ to move so I'm stuck.
I have heard that most places are better than Vegas (except for LA or San Diego). I have heard good things about Oregon and the midwest. Oregon is supposed to be a good place for dancing or a regular job. From what I hear, in Oregon you make $ on stage. You don't have to sell dances at all. Wow can you imagine?!
A couple of years ago when it was still possible to get a regular job out here I did bartending, cocktails and temp work. I can't tell you how refreshing it was. It was so easy to just show up and do my job and know that I would get paid.
After selling dances in Vegas any job you do will seem so easy. Nothing is as stressful as trying to sell dances in Vegas. Nothing. You can always get a part time dancing job to help with the bills when you are ready.
Good luck where ever you go.
