Florida Panhandle v.2

As of tomorrow, I will have lived here for 3 weeks. I had a very emotional last week in Detroit because the staff and most of the entertainers at my two home clubs there treated me with respect and I only ever had good experiences and (mostly) good things to say from an entertainer's perspective.

I cleaned my locker out at Deja Vu and was hanging out at Legends two nights later. I ran into one of the managers (who would get dances from me at Legends sometimes) and he suggested I go plout to Ypsi because the female manager was really bummed she didn't get to say bye to me. I drove out there from downtown Detroit to surprise her and my friends there. The manager and DJ at Deja Vu put me on stage for a "hot seat" as a send off. I received so many boobs and one bare vagina in my face. The DJ gave me a lap dance during the hot seat, too. We took a group photo, but I can't share it online due to protecting entertainer privacy and safety. I got drunk that night. DV is known for not serving alcohol, but trust me, it's in there. The DJ and I shared a lot of shots and a lot of photos were taken with my favorite co-workers and staff. It was a great night, yet really emotional for me.

My last weekend at Legends was monetarily awful. I had a longtime customer come in on my last Saturday there and we hung out for most of the evening. I got to work with most of my favorite entertainers and good friends at least one night of that weekend. My favorite manager there, who can be a little intimidating, gave me a hug and told me I'm always welcome back. My two agents came in to say bye to me as well. They assured me my stage name would still be available for me to use for, at least, the rest of this year when I go back to visit and work.

That club was in the process of making a lot of changes to entertainers' schedules and the Motor City Showgirls are now providing entertainers as they no longer do so for Coliseum.

Regardless, I left Detroit with really great memories and experiences from my two home clubs.

The move to Pcola was really rough. I only had two and a half weeks notice to move because I was approved for an apartment and they wanted it filled immediately otherwise they were going to move on to the next applicant. Needless to say, I was not financially ready. This has been an expensive move. Registering my car here is going to cost me around $400. Also, my car was damaged on the U-Haul transport, so I was without a car for the first week and a half. I *hate* my apartment. Unfortunately, I was not able to view it when I visited the property last month because somebody was living in it at the time. But the property manager showed me a model apartment and I was told the two were identical. That was a lie. I haven't decided if I want to buy my lease out ($1,300) or suck it up for deal with it for a year.

Anyway... I returned to Eden last night. It was my first night of work since moving. Last night made me REALLY miss Detroit and I got homesick. I don't think I can handle working here weeknights. It's too slow and too boring. I'm trying tomorrow night (Friday) at Eden. Everyone keeps telling me to wait it out because it gets good on the weekends. One of the girls last night told me $400 is considered a good night at Eden. Perhaps I'm just used to Legends money and stage rain, but $400 for a good night comparison really depressed and discouraged me. The club is open until 3am every night and nobody even came in after 1:30am.

So, basically, what clubs do you gentlemen (and fellow entertainers) suggest I check out? I'm considering New Orleans (3.5 hrs away), Panama City (2.5 hrs away), and Tampa (6 hrs away). I've read some reviews for PC and New Orleans, but the review info didn't contain information that would be particularly useful to me. Any advice or suggestions?
