wanted: coyote ugly dancers





lucy & me ♡




































❆ i was searching the job section of marbella's english newspaper, praying to find something......anything, to get me out of the house. maybe there was someone who needed a secretary, an experienced english tutor, or maybe an english-speaking nanny...
.... sure enough, hidden in the long list of telemarketing and real estate scams, there was the magic ad:

'coyoto ugly dancers wanted for bar shows. call annika'

what a blast from the past! it was nearly ten years ago that lucy and i became the official coyoto cowgirls of fullhouse salloon bar, shepparton. what a job! basically to walk around socialising (and drinking as much as we liked) giving out free drinks at the door and getting on stage to pour cowboy shots into a crowd of screaming open mouths.... really really classy ;o)

for $25 an hour, cash in hand, back in the day, and the limitless drink card, it was the best job we could possibly have imagined! we even became local celebrities for it; they talked about us on the radio, jealous girls cursed us in the streets, the works...
i get all nostalgic even thinking about it!

so, did i call the number in the newspaper? ....of course i did!
