Friday highlights
The customer who suddenly stopped coming in because he was undergoing tests for cancer sauntered into the club last night! His flashy taxi driver once said to him, "You love the neon lights of the night," so I'm naming him Neon.
He was staggering around looking pretty drunk already. I was so happy to see him, relieved that he looked okay, and then angry that he was obviously still living his life unhealthily despite his illness.
He said he has some tumor in his throat and he has to go in to the hospital next week. He's scared to go, and he doesn't want to go. "I have work, I'm busy."
He's kind of scared and for once in his selfish and decadent life, he's stopping to think about his life. I checked his lifeline (I always check all the customer's palms, plus I check their facial features, you can tell a lot about a person). It's not long, but it's not short either. It's also strong and deep right to the end, which means he won't die of a prolonged illness.
Actually, my lifeline's strong to the end too, but it's the shortest life line I've ever seen. I might die tomorrow!
One of Totoro's subordinate workers is a handsome, overly exciteable guy (relatively young, like 45). I think he's alright as far as customers go, but I can tell Dancer Girl really likes him. She gets all excited, neglects other customers, and starts using a cutesy voice and weird mannerisms (lots of annoying hand movements). She even told me that if he was 10 years younger, she'd go for him.
Even ten years ago he was married with kids, plus he's handsome and funny so he's gotta have a million girlfriends. He has to go out to hostess clubs for his job, and if she's into him, you can guarantee at least one girl in every other club he goes to is too. Even mama loves him and wouldn't mind taking him home to her crazy cat house.
I can't imagine EVER crossing that line with a customer. Not now, not after everything I've seen.
I decided that the next time I have a hot Japanese guy on my arm, I'm gonna act like I'm the shit. I'll drag Slugger out! No I won't, his scary girlfriend would kill me.
If there's a room full of foreign guys, I am really harsh and critical. If there's a room full of Japanese guys, Dancer's really harsh and critical. "Most Japanese guys are ugly, inside and out," she announced. To which I replied, "well so are most American guys, especially INSIDE Japan."

You live in a world that is so completely different to mine (or what mine would ever be!) so reading your blog is like reading this really interesting book. lol
Anyhoo, that part about how Jap girls think so highly of themselves when they're with a foreigner - that's the same in Vietnam. It's terrible though because traditional asians prefer their daughters to marry other asians and it tears families apart. According to my friends, the traditional asians don't like the idea of divorce and so by marrying a foreigner they believe that divorce will happen - oh what a world we live in....
I want to read palms. I tried reading my but got super confused!
People my age and older had to study English for at least 3~6 years, and kids younger study from elementary school. So they can kind of speak and understand (sort of). But the only English language songs that really crack the market here are the major Madonna/Mariah type acts.
But I don't know much about the music industry, so i would get a second opinion!
Loved the song! Loved it so much, I'm gonna tell everyone ; )
>Loved the song! Loved it so much, I'm gonna tell everyone ; )<
In that case it stands a good chance of succeeding;-) I feel the same way about your blog. Why not give up this hostess lark and become a journo or novelist...
if only it were that easy...
