I had a message on my answering machine today... she said she hadn't seen me in a really long time and she was at my club tonight... only problem is I don't recognize her name at all... if she has my number we must've hit it off... I wonder how long ago? I gotta admit that sometimes these stagenames go in one ear and out the other, for travelling girls... if I don't know if I'll ever see them again I don't put any brain power into remembering their names (did you know Einstein didn't know his own phone number? he said why bother remembering something that you can just look up?)... I've seen times where a dancer had to use a different name, as well, when someone with more seniority in the club had the same stage name...
A tangentally related story, back when I first started going a lot, I had a favorite...she must have been pretty new when I first met her, cuz she told me her real name right away. I don't think I have ever called her by it though... but the funny thing is, she stopped dancing for a few years and then came back... and now I keep forgetting her stage name... seems like almost everytime I'm talking to one of the other dancers and she comes up in the conversation I draw a blank... funny how the mind works sometimes.
