Eff it!!!!

Okay so my plans took a little turn! I was exp breakthrough bleeding, and then after I took my ring out after 3 weeks (I figured I was bleeding because it was past time, I wanted to keep it in for 5wks), I had my cycle. I was in pain, and I had a heavy flow so I didn’t cam, but I did sell some videos so I’m happy about that!

So boom, I’ve been waiting to hear from this vanilla job, and I haven’t heard anything. Other jobs I’ve applied to have either said, no thanks, or I haven’t heard from them. Sooo, EFF ITT!!! Not finna chase after these companies anymore. The false sense of stability, running in circles with these interviews, they can really kiss my ass fr.

I’m gonna just cam and continue my education! I figured I may as well, and since I’m in class for sterile processing, I’m gonna go ahead and boost it up into nursing school! I figured why not, the bare bones of it all is that I want to advance my education, I want more financial stability, and I want to work in a field where I have options and grow my skills, and nursing will give me that in a fraction of the time. Plus, with my past in school, I shouldn’t have too many prerequisites to go through, so hopefully I can start those in the fall and get into the nursing program by spring or fall 2026.

Besides, if I’m gonna be working for anyone I’m gonna need to be making good money. $20/hr to get cussed out by customers is not the route for me anymore. So here’s the plan for the rest of the yr:

- Cam daily 12a-5:40p; this will give me 40hrs a wk (recession log is coming at some point)

-Study SPT nights 1-2hrs and finish by August

-Get into club by Dec 2025 (I weight 178 now; 15 pounds to go, maybe 20)

- Go to school in fall/winter for prereqs, apply to nursing program when I’m finished w/ requirements

I swear everytime I look around my plans are changing, but I think this is best for me, the beauty of SW is, is that I have freedom, and you can’t put a price on that. If I decide to go in a completely different direction, I can do that, and it’s because of SW I can afford it too!!

Alright, I’m gonna get up and get an early start online and I’ll get onto the recession blog soon!

Recession Camming Challenge

Alrighty! I'm going to do a recession camming challenge!! I did my first interview with the vanilla job, it was a submitted video interview, so hopefully I'll hear back from them! Until then, I gotta get to work, so why not see the effects of this recession while camming, (for me).

The challenge will be for me to cam 7 days a week, 5 hours & 40 mins (40 hrs total/wk), on 3-4 camsites, and to be active on at least 1 phone site 5-7 days out of the week too!

I'm going to keep a log of my earnings for 2 hours and let you guys know the ebbs and flows and how it goes! Two hours because WHEN (claiming it) I get this job, I'm going to be camming 2 hours a day before or after work. Most likely after since it's more of a relief for me. If I don't get the job, I may just keep a log of every 2 hours, just to see how my traffic and the income changes throughout the full shift.

I will say, due to the hormone issues and the heavy cycles I've been having, I haven't been very militant with my schedule, but because I'm on the ring, and I'm getting my health on track, I can push thru much better than I have been doing this year!

I'll be camming (12a-5:40a) today through the weekend, but Monday will be a fresh start basically. I'll briefly go over my stats in Monday's post though!

⭐See you l8r!!⭐

Adding a Vanilla Swirl?!

I got a call back from a vanilla job, that’s pretty secure! It’s a long interview process, but it’s starting to look like back in the day when I had:

- 1 vanilla job

- Camming and Phone

- Dancing at the club

I’d really like to get back to that, and honestly, I’d like to get the job. The job market is frustrating, but I’m used to having more than one job. I’m not giving up on SW, I’m really just bracing myself. I’m not opposed to mixing spicy and vanilla work. It’s just frustrating as hell when you apply to job after job and don’t hear anything.

I’ve been applying to vanilla jobs since I quit my last one in 2022! If it weren’t for camming, I wouldn’t even have an income!!

Idk, I guess it’s just the Libra in me, but I feel like I almost need a vanilla job in order to make me feel secure. Can I make myself feel secure on my own? Yes! But bitch I’m scared lol! I’ve been through the webcam drought before when Boleyn and SM tanked, and I had to reset, I don’t want to go through that again.

If I land this gig, my goal is still to cam after work, as far as monetary goals, it would go down to $100-$150+ a day. And as far as the club, like I used to do, work on my off days or after work.

I’ve heard good things about the company, it’s very competitive though so I don’t really have my hopes up. I’d honestly prefer to just wait until I graduate and go into the SPT field, but building a good reputation with this company (if I get hired), will be good and maybe I can do them part-time. I heard healthcare is having a tough time right now, so who knows how long it will take for me to get in that field.

I’m not opposed to working, at all, I just don’t like wasting my time. I’m not super patient when it comes to everything, most things, but not everything lol. I definitely don’t mind having multiple jobs, honestly with my ADHD, and imposter syndrome, having multiple sources of income makes me feel useful. And oddly enough I like to show that off when I did. It made me feel validated, working like a dog…is that a sad thing? Idk.

All I really have is time, and in this upcoming economy, the president is saying these next 2 years are going to be bad economically. So yeah, I’d love to just wait it out until I get hired on at a hospital, but what if waiting screws me over??? So ima just take this chance.

My new job plan will look like this if I succeed in grabbing all the bags lol:

-Cam nightly 2hrs

-WFH vanilla part-time

-SPT full time

- Dance 1-2xs a week

The good thing about all this is that these jobs provide a 24/7 schedule, except for the club, but it is open 7 days a week now, so I can make this work! Am I trying to do all of this out of fear? My own inner feelings about my self? To make sure my present and future is prepared for? Yes, all of that! I had a long talk with my parents and what they’re passing on to me requires money, not to mention their elder care I’m going to have to be doing in the future. It’s just so much I’m gonna have to do to keep myself comfortable, and them comfortable, I may as well get the ball rolling now while I still have the energy.

Well, it’s almost 10pm. I’m going to get up and shower, eat a little dinner, & cam. In the morning I’ll have my interview and whether it goes good or not, I already pre-ordered a Crumbl cookie for my spirits lol

The plan is to succeed in everything that I do. I get frustrated, but I won’t quit something completely, especially if I enjoy it. It’s time to go after these money bags and fully secure myself!

🍂DAY 31 (11/3/23)🍁

I made it!!! Not perfect, but I did it, and I tried, and I stuck with SOMETHING!!

I’m proud of myself too!!

~my count was wrong so it’s 31 days lol~

Anyways, so I did split cam with SC, CB, and SM (I’ll make an abbreviation key later). I made money on all three sites, and I ended up getting to my goal in a little under two hours! When it did get slow on SM, I got on my couch and took a 15-20min break and I got back online and told myself I’m gonna sit here until I make my goal, and I did! I definitely recommend taking breaks, even a little walk around the corner makes a difference. Every 1-2 hours, I just relax, for a bit.

I’m looking forward to putting in the work, and I believe it will go well for me if I keep going!

Ttyl☀️

💜DAY 30 (11/1/23)🦄

Alrighty here’s the first, almost, hour and a half. Not too bad, I split cammed and tried doing SP. I think SP is better at nights so I’m going to focus on that. Not much to say, I don’t have a true complaint honestly. I think SM is a great site, I just need to put more time on, online, and into my other streams of income!

Tomorrow is the last day, and I’m ready to put forth my changes!

Ttyl🦋

[lexijaynex]

💐DAY 29 (10/31/23)🌺

This morning wasn’t bad. I woke up late so I ended up only doing an hour and I got a little bonus so I cashed out at $71, so not too shabby for an hour of work.

I skipped the night shift since it was Halloween and I figured it’d be slow, and I heard I was right. I got a few things done around the house and I’m up this morning getting ready, late, again lol. I plan to get on at 7:30a at the latest.

I’m going to stay online until I get to my first $104 goal, regardless of payout time, then I’ll start my second shift officially, with another $104 goal!

The 30-day challenge is almost over, the next challenge will be 30 days of two shifts, and tracking how split camming is going, and tracking my activity on my other streams of income!

Talk to you soon🎃

[lexijaynex]

😎DAY 27 (10/27/23)🥸

Alright so not too bad for the time I worked. I was mostly on Sextpanther (SP) and I did and offline show, so I made some good money today.

I ended up getting on SP around midnight and leaving myself active for about 3 hours, then I cammed an hour, from around 2-3a and took a long break, then got back on from 6:30-7:30a.

Idk just with how slow it’s been on Streamate, it’s been tough trying to get online, but I’m just going to put more hours into my other streams of income. If I can make bare minimum $100+ total, per day across 3 streams, I’m fine, but what I’m not gonna do is just sit around and quit on myself. I’ve come from $0 earnings doing online adult work, to a few thousand followers and a nice amount of money per week, when I actually put myself to it. It may not be much to some, but it’s a lot to me, and I owe it to myself to keep pushing, and to push even harder! I know I can get much further with effort, and honestly, I haven’t been putting forth much of it.

I’m not gonna cam again until Monday, I’m going to my family’s house tonight, pest control is doing their rounds in my building so I’m just gonna stay overnight. I’ll most likely do SP or NiteFlirt (NF) while I’m there. Maybe post pics on my socials or something, but the day will NOT go to waste!

See you tmw!😊

[lexijaynex]

🏃🏽‍♀️DAY 26 (10/26/23)💨

I had a busy day, so I popped online for a spell. Not too bad for the time and I got payout. I ended up doing Se*tpanther through the day so I could at least work while I was gone and I did good there. The trick to the algorithm is to have your video calls available! I haven’t been active on SP in a minute and I did well yesterday!

Short and sweet, see you on the next one 😊

[lexijaynex]

☀️DAY 25 (10/24/23)🌙

This morning was not bad at all! I had 1 regular and 1 newbie, and boom! That’s about it. I made $58.44 in 34 minutes, the rest of the time was dead air. Switching some things around and just gonna do half my goal in the early morning and the other half in the afternoon or evening. No stress, $93-$103 per shift (2 shifts;5-7days a wk) and call it a day. Trying to make this road hump as stress free as possible.

I’m also switching my streams to my bed. Utilizing more of my space, moving my camera around, using more of the floor, all of that.

I’ve gotten my clip sites, phone sites, and my Twitter back up. Gonna get down to it like I did when I started. I got too comfortable with Streamate, and being full-time self-employed, I know better than to depend on one source of income.

Ttyl😌

[lexijaynex]

🍓DAY 24 (10/20/23)😮‍💨

I took a little break for my bday, and the site is obviously having issues so I just told myself I would do enough for payout and call it a day.

I didn’t feel like sitting in an empty room, and I didn’t feel like camming, I went and hung out with some family and just rested again. I needed it. I was feeling discouraged and unmotivated in more ways than one, and I can blame Streamate, and tech issues and all that, but being an independent contractor, why would I depend on only one site? Why am I only camming? Why am I not sticking to anything? Why am I not using the other 10+ streams of income I have? What is my issue?

It is really me, I’m the drama😩

I think I just have to stick with the fact that my hours may be longer, I mean would I rather be in my own room, at home, work my own hours throughout the day and live my life��

Or

Although working from home, work for someone else, tire myself out doing that and give bare minimum to my own business.

[lexijaynex]

🥲DAY 23 (10/16/23)🌸

I don’t know how it took me 9 mf hours to make my minimum goal, but it took me 9 mf hours!!!!

The night started off with my main computer giving me the blue circle of death (Streamate), so I switched devices until I could finally get a good stream. When I tell you the traffic was crickets! This night definitely had me throwing my hands up and just thinking about quitting because wtf!?

Anyway, I got some shows from some regulars, I tried dynamic pricing, I prefer to just set my own prices because regular pricing offers block sessions, and some shows I do require block sessions. I pushed through as best as I could and as a reward, a customer on a previous date purchased $33 in media from me so I cashed out over $200. It worked out, like I can’t complain, but at the same time, I could earn $200 in 4-5hrs or less. For me to be online for almost 10 hours and barely break $200 without media sales, is ridiculous!

Hopefully Streamate can get everything fixed and bring some PAYING traffic, but until then I’ll be utilizing my other sites in conjunction with them. If anything these little hiccups let’s me know that there is money to be made on other sites, it may take some time, but I guess I have 9hrs of it to blow!

[lexijaynex]

✨DAY 22 (10/12-13/23)😩

Okay never mind, no ranting and raving, let’s just stick to it! Streamate has been having technical difficulties, and it has been a pain, but all I can do is keep getting online and make $100 bare minimum.

Okay so this night I started camming before the 7pmCT cut-off where the new day starts. I cammed for 2 hours and I made $61. It wasn’t bad, so I went ahead and took a break in anticipation for the early morning shift.

I started again around 2am and streamed until 7am, it was painfully slow. I really could’ve scrapped 2-4am and just started at 5am and worked until 10am, because time and time again I think I’m going to gain extra money from doing extra hours in the late night/early morning, when it rarely works out that way.

This shift definitely let me know to stick with what I know, but to also give the evening a chance!

[lexijaynex]

🥹DAY 21 (10/10/23)🫡

Yeah I lost motivation. I haven’t even wanted to cam lately, Streamate has been like pulling teeth, but I told myself I’m going to try these few week days before I celebrate my bday this weekend.

Today is my bday btw and I didn’t even want to stay online to see if my regulars would show up. I’m NEVER camming 12a-4a again! I tried to do it to get the hours in, but screw that. I’m going to follow my 6-10a;6-10a at $93-$168 each shift and call it a damn day, until then, I’m done torturing myself with trying to make something work for me that’s not working.

I guess that’s the theme of my life so far, trying to end bad habits and harmful cycles. It’s not easy, but all I can do is keep trying. I’m not gonna beat myself up about it, I’ve done that before, I’m just trying to understand why I have these patterns that hold me back, and why I constantly feed into the same bad habits and frustrate myself with the same awful results!!

Anyways! I’m going to Applebees for $1 margaritas and then I’m getting online around 5a until 10a tomorrow morning. I’m probably only going to have 3 margaritas, that will put me to sleep good tonight!

Oh btw, dynamic pricing on Streamate, idk if it’s for me. Like I did grab a few newbies at newer prices, all lower than 8.99. I think I just need to set my minimum higher than 7.99, maybe 8.99, and then my maximum 11.99. We’ll see how it works in the morning! Until then here’s 4 sad hours of 12a-4a, and I’m never doing it again!!😂

Ttyl😂💕

[lexijaynex]

🎃DAY 20 (10/6/23)🐈‍⬛

Oooo baby!!! This morning was a mess, but it’s usually pretty slow Friday mornings! I’m thankful for the media purchases, and honestly if it hadn’t been for mobile streaming, I probably wouldn’t have made anything!!

I’m going to be honest, I have been slacking majorly these past few weeks. I just haven’t really felt like doing much of anything, and for that my finances have suffered SO I’m going to have to push it to the limit this weekend!

I’m only able to stream on Streamate at the moment. So it’ll be an interesting weekend to say the least! I feel like as long as I stick to it and just pull the hours I will be okay, but when I get all of my things together Monday, I’m split streaming PERIOD! I can’t rely on one site, but I’m going to keep sticking with it because it’s working for someone! All I need is one customer who has the disposable income to throw on a pretty lady online and not even think about it. I’ve been tempted to lower my prices, but 9.99 is only 3 bucks a minute for me since I’m under Boleyn, and I’m not going down past 7.99. I was at 7.99 for the longest and it worked, but I wanted a solid $3, I may do $8.99 idk. I just feel like if you can’t afford a SW, watch the free stuff.

Anywho, I’m headed to a funeral, after that I’m going to take a nap and get online. I did cam from the floor for the last 30-40 minutes, it wasn’t too bad! I like it actually!

Ttyl🦋

[lexijaynex]

🖥️DAY 19 (10/5/23)📱

Well talk about saved by the damn bell!! First off, I finally got back into the Discord (password issues) and I saw that I wasn’t the only one with streaming issues this morning! I work mainly from a Window’s 10 pc; EVERY new device I had would not let me stream accept for my phone and my Windows 8 pc!

So I went ahead and fired up my oldie but goodie (Win. 8) and low and behold traffic is slower than molasses on a cold day!! Thankfully I had the thought to just throw my hands up and switch to my phone! I got comfy in my bed, grabbed my book “The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo,” and started streaming! HUGE difference! Traffic was good, my customers said my stream looked good, and I got some new guys that spent money on me and bought some clips!

I’m very thankful that Streamate has a mobile option because baby, I was finna cry it was so painfully slow! So today, I’ll be streaming from my phone, in my bed, comfortably reading my book until I get tired. I refuse to let Streamate’s tech issues stress me out today!!

Ttyl💕

[lexijaynex]

🕺🏾DAY 18 (10/4/23)🪩

Getting back into the groove baby! I’ve been gone, my cycle has been driving me up the wall, but I’m doing a little better! I’m online, it’s 3:05am and I’m gonna push thru and do some hours today, but not all at once, I’m going to do it in 1-2hr increments. At least that’s the plan today lol. I have to make up for the time I missed so this will be a long shift!

————

It’s 4:20a just came in from a bathroom break. I think I’m gonna have to empty my disc every 30-40 mins idk, but for some reason miss thing is on her BS right now, and I know it’s day 5! I think it’s the coffee so I’m definitely putting it away!!

ANYWAYS I’ve been online for a total of 1hr7mins and I’m at $58! Not bad at all in my book! I’m gonna take a break and get back on in a few!

————

Logged back on at 10:47a, let’s see how this hour or two goes!

———-

It’s 11:51a I’ve been online for over an hour, a total of 2hrs 39mins, and I’ve made $3. As expected. This time was slow for me in the past, plus I’m pretty much a newbie to this hour so it’s going to take me some time to make a little bit of money. I plan to get off around 2-2:30p, and I’m going to pick back up around 7ish tonight. The total so far is $61 in 2 hours.

Well, I’m going to finish up for today and I will let y’all know how it goes in the morning tomorrow, but as of today here’s my 2hrs!

Ttyl💕

[lexijaynex]

🪸DAY 17 (9/29/23)🌊

I’m online now, it’s 3:45am. Going to cam for two hours, take a break and get back on around 6:45a-7a and cam until 10a. Gonna log as I go, so let’s get it!! I’m listening to my little Monodrone and Synth-wave music, and I’m watching Boze’s 7 hour true crime marathon. There are currently 177 Ebonies online, so I think I got on at a good little time.

———

It’s 4:42a, I’ve been online for 57 minutes and I’ve made $1! Whew! It’s a hot mess, but I’ve mentioned that 2-4a was slow for me, and look what happened—wasted my time lol. I had a few people acting new or trying to get over, so I ended up making this preset message:

If they wanna act like I’m green and brand new iI’ll treat them like they are too!! ;)

——

Anyways I’m 1hr17min in, $1 in earnings. I have 5 more hours to go. I’m just shooting for $186, nothing big, hopefully I can make it, at the very least half hell!!

✨My money affirmation: Money comes to me, easily, don’t have to worry ‘bout a thing!✨

———

Alright! I have been online for 1hr 56 minutes, I have made $1.50!! Yes, I have made a McChicken lol!

I am about to take that lil' break and get back on in another hour. I will say, the 4am hour isn't the best, and I've learned (several times over) that my regulars and newbies usually come in around 5:30-6:30am-ish, so I'm gonna hold out and push through it!

Now, I did ask a customer how the site was acting to him and he said it was glitchy on his laptop, but it works perfectly on his phone, so that makes me feel better to know that I'm not trippin lol! I also heard from a regular that the privates have been lagging pretty bad, but it's been that way for years, which is why they get offline shows from me, and I get it.

I just refuse to just give up today! It's pay day, and somebody is finna bless my damn pockets THIS MORNING!!

——-

I’m still trying my best to push thru! I’ve been online for 3hr32mins. I’ve made $55 and some change. It’s been slow as hell boo, but ima keep pushin. I’m at least gonna try to make $100 out of this morning. I will get online later tonight/tomorrow, most likely during the late night. It’s strikes going on, the govt shutting down, but chile all I can do is keep pushin! On the bright side I’m home, and not spending no money to work in a club during this crisis!

I have noticed, and I think I’ve mentioned it before. When people don’t have a lot of money to spend, if any at all, THEY WILL TALK and talk and talk! I’ve noticed that this morning, a few of my regulars have been talking my fingers off. Maybe they just want a little conversation, and I’m fine with that, but I’ve noticed that the more they talk the shorter the show or the less money they end up spending. When they have it, they spend it! Just like when I used to go window shopping at the mall, seeing what I liked, looking around knowing I don’t have the funds lol. I spend a longer time looking around, than just going and buying what I want when I have the coin to spend. It’s basically the same thing! I’m fine with them testing the waters a bit and letting them get to know my personality, but for the most part, run me some coin! I’m not finna be talking too damn long now! I type a lot more than I talk, because a lot of them just want my attention and acknowledgment. So if they’re brand new I don’t talk until they tip or we go private, I just type to them, and regulars I do a little talking and more typing until they spend some money. It just saves me energy!

Anywho, it’s 9:14a, I’m getting off this mf at 10:00a, turning my air down and taking a damn nap lol!

———

Okay last 18 minutes, it's 9:42a, I made $68! Bish I been online all damn morning lol, but I'm not finna complain too much. It's been a few times where I've been online for longer and have made less. I just gotta stack it up through the day chile. I wanted to make that $100 this morning, but I need a damn break!!! Looking at my stats, I really could’ve just saved those first two hours, because I made $67 in 2 hours, my last hour online was kind of a bust too. Soooo looking at it like that, it’s not THAT bad, but still, DAMN!😂

——

Okay, I logged off at 10:10a, and I made $68 this morning. I really need to split cam, I'm actually gonna start it ASAP, because depending on one site ain't havin it for me! I’ve been splitting here and there, but bump that, I’m gonna get on a split cam schedule and stick to it. I'm grateful for the lil coin, don’t get me wrong, but sheesh lol! My ass will be back online today though, so let me shut up and go take a nap lol!

I'll ttyl, thanks for reading!! 💕
