Behind the Curtain (again)

So here we are, my first day back "behind the curtain" after more years than I care to count. I would say that I am nervous, but that would be a lie; this is what I'm good at, what I've always been good at, and although it is only a Tuesday night shift, I'm looking forward to sliding my hand back into this glove that has always fit.  It is a small club, the equipment sucks, their music selection is extremely limited, and I've only met a couple of the girls in the 2 days I went in for retraining, but it should still be fun. If not, I'll make it fun, that's what I do.  Even though I've been doing weddings for a couple months now, most of that is scripted and structured so I'm looking forward to going a little more free-form.
It is a bit ironic that today would be my first day (since working in this industry was both the catalyst and the death of my marriage) but why be maudlin? I haven't even worked a shift yet and I've already been offered two more; one them interferes with the wedding gig, but since I have not seen much work there lately, I'm thinking I will take those shifts as well. We'll see how things go. At the very least, I'm back in the "daily cash" game, which is good since I've been walking around with only a dollar and some change in my pocket for the past week. Wish me luck!
