Day 9
I tried to get into the bar last night, but the bouncer wouldn’t let me in with my Hippity Hop Rabbits. He said they were dangerous. What an idiot! The Bouncer said I could leave them at the front door, but I was worried someone would look at the trick and figure out how it was done, and a good magician never reveals his secrets by leaving his stuff in a coat room, that is for sure.
So instead, I stayed out front of the bar, and decided to do street magic like I saw on TV, but nobody really wanted to watch. Finally I got this guy and his girlfriend to watch me do Hippity Hop Rabbits...I don’t think they understood it because they didn’t really react. The boyfriend just said, “Nice trick”. It made me really angry he called it a trick, but I remember Tom saying that it was my job to educate people on what magic is, so I said, “It is magic A-hole...tricks are what your mom does”. He told me to F off and he and his girlfriend walked away. He didn’t even tip me! I just think he was upset and jealous because his girlfriend likes me...you could tell by the way she was rolling her eyes and shaking her head, like she was totally blown away!
I think I am going to go to the magic shop tomorrow – I am sure there are better tricks that are much easier.
