So my rapidly approaching Gay Disney weekend has brought back memories of the same weekend last year.
I had gone up on Wednesday night with some guys who own a swimsuit company named
mmmwear.com. The deal was I would work 10 hours at the Gay Days Expo each day with them and then have the nights to myself to hang out and party.
Even though working the 10 hours was exhausting I managed to have an awesome time. I would work, take a quick break at the pool party, work again, eat something, go to the main party, change, and go to the after party till about 6am. Then I'd wake up at 9am and start all over again.
After 3 days of this I was pretty exhausted and feeling kinda goofy. Sunday morning I woke up and thought... "I know, a fresh haircut will give me a fresh feeling!" So I grabbed my clippers and started to give myself a nice buzzcut. After one pass over my head I realized I had forgot to put the guard on. I had shaved a large strip in my head right down to the bone. ARGHHHH!!!!!
There was no saving this one. I just went ahead and shaved it all off. Since I usually have a pretty good tan from living in South Florida I now had a small white head on top of my big white body. Yes, I have a small head. A VERY small head. In fact, I can't wear men's hats or even boy's hats. I have to buy my baseball caps in the small children's section at the GAP. It's embarassing.
So there I was with my bald and freaky looking at the biggest party in the country. What's a guy to do? I blocked any thoughts of my first shoot as Master Nick with
Kink.com that was coming up in less than a week. I walked out of my hotel room with my small white head held high and a big smile on my face.
Most of my friends didn't even recognize me. And I'm talking my good friends. When they did recognize me they told me I looked like I had Lukemia. Nice. I didn't care though. I had a blast and played it up for all it was worth. I especially had fun going out that night and watching how the laser lights reflected off my bald white head.
This year I am not working while I'm there. It's strictly party time! And I plan to keep my hair this time.
