Yesterday morning I got a text from my good friend Molly Macabre saying that our(not-existent) Burlesque troop was invited to perform out of town on valentines day. Now normally I would have a small freak out trying to get a group of girls together(and by the way its not that I'm not..so if your interested contact me asap) but it had an unexpected effect on me. I have been in a terrible funk lately but apparently this is what I needed to shake me up. Even if this doesn't happen, which would be disappointing, I'm glad that I have something that can grab me out of a funk like that. Burlesque has really changed my life for the better. All I want to do is perform burlesque.  Burlesque makes me feel like I could conquer the world. (One piece of clothing at a time.lol) I cant wait until I can afford to go to more shows and make more costumes just so I can be closer to this art I have so deeply fallen in love with. I really hope this show happens(and I find some more people interested in performing). I feel like this is the year Cambria begins to make her mark on DFW and then the world   ; ).


I've also been mulling around the idea of entering the Dallas Burlesque festivals Pinup Pageant.. Im not sure though. To be honest it kinda scares me. I feel like I might be again reaching further than I should. I dont know maybe Im being totally stupid. I dont know. It could be fun though. Humm..if I did then what is considered pinup formal wear? I mean does anybody think I even have a chance to advance from the screening? I need to make up my mind quick though... oh decisions decisions......




So again if you or someone you know who would like to perform with a potential new troop for a gig on valentines day PLEASE Let me know. I don't have many details right now but I want to be prepared if it does happen.Contact me on facebook or on my cell.

Hello Interwebs!

Welcome to my blog!  I have been meaning to make a blog for sometime now but just haven't. I've wanted a place to share my experiences, creations, and a place to vent when I just have no where else to. Sound like a plan? Good. Then why not start this off with something that has been bothering me for sometime now. 


Facebook. I hated it at first and refused to get one until the middle of my freshmen year in college. Peer pressure set in and I caved. Then once I got an Iphone it was all over. Facebook at my finger tips 24-7. But the problem lies here. It started giving me a false sense of friendships. And before I realized it people who I thought would never leave me behind had already forgotten about me.  I had a friend lets call them X, who I thought was a person who I could always rely on. WE used to be BEST FRIENDS. I loved X like a sister. But then NOTHING. Literally nothing. X now basically doesn't want anything to do with me except be my "friend" on Facebook. X was invited to my wedding  last July and didn't even reply much less come. You must be thinking "Well what did you do to piss X off?. Well that's the thing I didn't do anything at all. When I asked what was up I didn't really get any answers. I guess I should go ahead and mourn the loss of this friendship but it seems I have done a lot of that in the past 6 months. I really do miss X but they have apparently already moved on(according to Facebook). I just love and trust people too much and get burned too often. I have a terrible problem choosing friends. It seems rare to find people who actually care about being a good friend, not jump to conclusions, and actually care about the other person. 

I look at my Facebook and it tells me that I have 345 friends.Well Facebook I sure don't feel that way. I can think of maybe 6 of that 345 that are actually my friend. So what do I do now? If I were to delete everyone who doesn't talk to me then what would be the point of having a Facebook?  I just want to have friends again. I remember when I had 2 girl friends. We would go out to lunch or for a walk and just talk about everything. I miss that. (I know, I know I have a husband who I share everything with but sometimes its nice to have friends to talk things out with.) I miss being able to call Amber up and just talk. Not like she answered much but when she did it was nice. (oh yeah the Amber story. It's long so Ill save that for a later time)

Writing this I just realized what my new years resolution is. I want to find new people or really get to know some of the people I already know. SO  NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR NEW FRIENDS. YOU MUST CARE ABOUT OTHER PEOPLE, be HONEST, be LOYAL,  and LIKE/PUT UP WITH MY WEIRDNESS.lol  no but seriously I am..lol 




P.S. 
For my 6 friends on Facebook-
Its not that you guys arent enough but I dont even get to see/ hang out with you guys that often. So lets fix that!!!!


Thank you for reading my rambling thoughts. You really dont know how much it means to me. I hope this is the beginning of something Great.
