Back from a brief hiatus

National Drunk Blogging Day Well, here I am, trying to get back into the swing of the whole blogging thing. I haven’t spent much time on the computer over the past several days, and that’s been just fine and dandy with me. I expect I’ll be back with a vengeance of some variety tomorrow, it being National Drunk Blogging Day after all. The plan as of now is for Rusty, Sara, Griftdrift, and I to take our laptops to a bar with wifi and drunkblog there for a while, then hit the Clermont Lounge. And then maybe drunkblog some more at home, if I’m not asleep by then.

Aside: my upstairs neighbor is, by the sound of things, sawing something. WTF?

So, an anecdote, until I can think of something else to write about. Last night, Rusty and I went to the Pink Pony. I’d never been before, and I’m happy to report that I’m easily a better pole dancer than ~60% of the dancers there. Probably more than that (you can ask Rusty), but you know me, ever the humble one. There were two dancers in particular who were seriously impressive… climbing upside down, hanging from the ceiling, all kinds of insane shit. They were serious. There were a few others who were really good, but I imagine by the time I finish the level 3 class, I’ll be at that point, or close to it.

Which brings me to one of my goals for 2007: go to an amateur night competition at a strip club. I’m thinking probably around late summer is when I’ll be at the point where I can actually do it. I’m excited now after going to the Pink Pony last night, because I feel like it’s not an unrealistic goal. And when I do it, there will be a podcast, of course!

Speaking of podcasts, you should check out the end-of-year episode of Mostly ITP.

Stay tuned for drunkblogging - probably including lots of good rants - tomorrow! If you’re participating too, cheers!

    I went to the Pink Pony a few years ago for the International Stripping Contest (or whatever it was called) and I was seriously unimpressed. You’ll kick everyone’s ass.

    Really? You must tell me more! Drop me an email or soemthing. I’ve been feeling intimidated because I know a woman here who’s a REALLY good dancer and says she’s going to compete in that thing this summer. She will EASILY kick everyone’s ass if she does compete, but I don’t think it’s fair for her to do so, because she works at a different strip club.

    Too bad you won’t be here tomorrow or we could discuss…
