Hey, Wendy, you’re a bitch!

So you want to be an alternative model . . .

spikyme just posted the most awesome advice for aspiring models in his journal:

“Just to follow up on my previous post about girls aspiring to be a “fetish” or “goth” model.

You don’t need a committee to tell you if you’re good or not.

Here’s a few things that will help if you want to “be successful!”

This isn’t aimed at anybody in particular and isn’t a rant, it’s more like an observation.

Be good looking

Be willing to show your cooch

Be easy to work with

Run your own website/learn html so you can update it regularly

Have your pictures taken by someone who’s work looks professional

Sport a cool wardrobe

Communicate with people in “the biz” regularly

Ok the cooch part isn’t extremely necessary.

I’m just mentioning this because it’s become so silly how serious people are about small stuff like belonging to a clique or some sort of elite community. It’s not like mainstream modeling anyway.”

I know we’ve got some “friends” in common, but I thought anyone on my list who had not seen his post yet should. I had the following to add:

Know what your goals and reasons are. Do you want to get paid? Do you want to be famous? Do you want something you do besides modeling to get promoted? Do you want to piss off your ex? Do you want to help friends promote their bands, designs, clubs, whatever? Do you want someone to make you a site? Do you want to be in magazines? Do you just want to have a good time creating something with friends that will last after you and your friends are wrinkled and gray?

The number one thing that will make me skip shooting someone is if I think he or she is fuzzy on why he or she wants to do it and is likely to come back later with a “Why didn’t I get blah blah blah too?” sort of issue.

Hey, Wendy, you’re a bitch!

Gah, I have way too much to do and I just don’t feel like doing it.

Reminder to self: When you are in your journal contemplating the meaning of life, remember you are supposed to be finalizing Vegas stuff and addressing content and password work.

. . . Bar & Grill

Went to the Lava Lounge last night to meet a cool webmaster I know from online and various events. Never been to the Lava Lounge before. It was closed.

So we coordinated via cell phone and decided to consolidate to my car and head over to Coach & Horses. There was a little girl in the parking lot apparently selling something for her school. You know to keep her off the street and off drugs etc. So my friend gets in the car and I’m like “so what did you buy?”

And he shows me:

And I’m like “I think you did buy drugs.” He claimed to believe it was mistletoe, but I don’t know what mistletoe looks like, so hard to tell.

We head over to Coach & Horses, but parking looked annoying, so we ended up at The Rainbow. I would normally have dressed differently to go that far West, but oh well. It is a rule in Los Angeles that you never know where you will end up over the course of an evening, no matter how much you plan beforehand. Rainbow was fun. Ran into Aeon and a bunch of other cool folks. Drank some beers. Ate some shrimp.

I think I have lived in Los Angeles for too long. I actually would like to be both richer and thinner.

More new graphics completed now for XXXSpacegirls

So, guess what the newest site in the Blue Blood family is . . .

Forrest is still working on the tour, but the inside is hot.
