THORGY!
First and foremost- My coffee date? It was cool... this guy happened to be a well known drag queen- he was really nice- and just really real...lol
SUNDAY- Pay Pride Parade- mucho funo, I walked with Center Lane- which was also a good time. I am surprised I still ahve my voice because I was SCREAMING sooo much- I met some cool people, I even got spanked and got someone's number, owww.
BUT- The craziness at the Pier... disgusting- Hood Rat BITCHEZ. Boys with booty shorts and their thongs up to their rib cage- not cute! Fights! Supposedly their were gun shots at the pier, I think they were just fire crackers- but someone in front of me deff pulled out a box cutter... tryna cut a mo'. I had to get out of their, my head was ACHING!
But today! I am enrolled at a modern dance intensive here in Westchester. It's held at Steffi Nossen School of Dance in White Plains, with the Dimauro Dance Company. We are doing technique classes, learning rep, and even creating rep. We may have a showing, who knows... that would be cool.
Afterwards I taught a BOOT CAMP class... Since I walked in the Parade, hung out in the city, and danced from 10-4, I thought I was going to die- BUT I was fine, yes ENDURANCE!
Then a lil BBQ with some neighbors and a few glasses of Merlot, perfection.
I also thought- I am involved (not sexually) with so many gay men, women and all those in between. And I am such a celebrity here in Westchester and many other places, why not right a book about all my gayness and all the people and scenarios I have been involved in (take this as you will). It would be called, "My Life on the Gay List"
lol. Just an idea I came up with in the shower. I guess I will scribble some stuff down- : )
TIME IS RUNNING OUT!
VOTE THORGY!!!!

My Fault?
Almost 6 in the morning, and I have yet to get to sleep...
I don't understand, I have the strangest sleep patterns. They aren't taking a toll on my body, it's just frustrating.
I have a coffee date thingy- let's see if I scare this one away too, lol. Honestly I would rather scare someone away- RIGHT away, then get invested in them in any sense of the word... If you can't deal with me, well it's an issue that you need to deal with....on your own, on your own terms... therefore, it does NOT involve me. I meet the strangest men....

A day in the life
I am pretty tired- I have been running around a lot.
VOTE THORGY
I took a fierce strip tease class yesterday. I even wore my heels (which was an exhausting mistake)
On Tuesday, Zach and I went to the Thelma Hill Performing Arts Center @ Kumble Theater and saw Souls of our Feet: People of Color Dance Festival.
Women Dancemakers with choreography by Sita Fredrick, Alethea Pace, Hilary Tanabe, Nejla Yatkin, Sidra Bell, Andrea E Woods, Camille A Brown and Francesca Harper.
Needless to say it was such a good show! Inspirational and abstract.
Later I hung out with some old Purchase College Queens, I love them! lol SLUMBER PARTY!
I am always running around nowadays- It's kinda fun!

YEAH!
So....
Though my body was doing some strange things yesterday, I still managed to go and take my cardio kickboxing class as well as the strip tease. I chilled and waited around afterwards (esp since they had wine) just because I was being lazy.
Then the owner was talking about getting a sub for the hip hop aerobics class... then she said, "Davon, do you teach hip hop- you can do it." I freaked!!!!!
I said, "Well yeah I teach hip hop, that's what I mostly teach anyway and in regard to the aerobic part, I have taken classes in personal training- plus most of my classes are boot camp style anyway."
So she agreed!!! So here I am FLIPPING' out nervous as hell! I am teaching a class I have never taught and am FREAKED... hip hop aerobic?!?!?!?
I just don't want it to be some cheesy shit and I end up leaving feeling embarrassed, lol.
I am getting myself sick... :(
I CAN DO THIS!!!!

VOTE THORGY- rupauls drag race
To add to the insanity of life... I am having some painful ankle issue. I woke up 100% intending on take a fucking ballet class (even though I can not find one of my ballet shoes) and the first step I take I almost fall to the ground. I think a tendon on the medial part of my ankle is aggravated or something, which sucks- I was supposed to take a Ballet class at Central Park Dance, THEN take Cardio Kickboxing and Strip Tease at The Loft: Dance and Fitness!
Why am I ALWAYS getting hurt- out of nowhere?!?!
And I really am having a hard time finding a good part-time job- which is strange because I have never had issues finding jobs... lol I am a true starving artist now!
