After we performed I didn’t stick around long enough to see Poppy Z. Brite read. We took off from the Zietgiest Benefit, and then went to the National Organization of Women’s Benefit. We went down to Decatur for a short bit. I wanted to see Deana, but I found out she was out of town. I went to see Todd, but I found out he quit a week ago.

I talked to a metal working friend, and I am going to learn angle grinding from her for the Birthday Bash. Craig’s birthday is a few days after mine and he is a big fetish fiend like me, so we are making it a double birthday for Perverts!!! He has some interesting performance pieces in mind.

I have to get this house together. When I have to pack my bag for shows I have to dig through the closets and find the required pieces of costuming. I still have to pack for tomorrow’s show. And next Friday I have to be together for the OffBeat show.

I took out additional ad space in OffBeat for my birthday.

Tonight, after I get out of session I am going back to Zietgiest for the last night of the Benefit party, so I can see my friend Ostia spin. I am thinking about buying a membership for myself tonight too. I would hate for this city to lose Zietgiest. The already lost Shim Sham, and Movie Pictures, over half of Gargoyles is gone, the Hide Out is gone. Even Papa Joes switched from drag performers to “tranny strippers” (this sucks because it is just like any other stripclub only they hide their tucked genitals in panties).
