Ok, so I'm a day late, but I am here nonetheless!
I got a job in a bar and had to work last night. I remembered about my Post Pledge about half an hour before I had to leave and was like SHIT!. hehe.
I now work in a small gay bar in town. Its lovely. Hard work, shit pay, but its all good. I like this tired, having-a-reason-to-relax feeling. The banter is great, some of the customers are a bit creepy but I am loving it. And apparently I am quite good at it! I can't pour pints for shit, but I can usually get away with it with a big smile lol.
Had a bit of a horrible experience last night though - these two guys (a couple) from Nottingham came into the bar last night, and the manager let them stay after we shut for a drink, and then we all went on to another bar next door. They invited me to their hotel room, which I, quite innocently - honest! accepted. When I got there though it was rather odd. One of them tried to kiss me, which I refused, and reminded him that he had a boyf, then he grabbed my neck and pushed me to the floor. Needless to say I left straight away! It was really scary. I should have known better really. Silly Martin. Nevermind. The worst part was when I got home, all I wanted was a boy to come home to and hug me and tell me Its Alright. :(
Craig, my housemate, and I entered Drag Idol, and got a place! Its a big charity event held in Leeds every year to raise money for gay friendly charities. We're against 9 other acts and have to lip sync to a number. We're doing Shakespear's Sister: Stay. I am the evil one :P Our act consists of Craig crying/dancing/moving around a boy on a table, then I come in from behind the audience, and then we have a faux fight. We've been working on it today and its really shaping up. I'm so nervous but I can not wait! It will definitely be an experience to say the least!
I think I will leave it there tonight. I love this song atm:
