The Las Vegas Courtesan

So, typically during the summer time it gets a little slower around town. Families come here for their vacations, the conventions are over, and everyone kind of moves a little slower like your shoes have tar on the bottom of them from the heat of the desert. I’m used to this season after working for several summers now, but this one just baffles me. Since the 4th of July it has gotten slow, and when I say slow I mean like the previous years usual slow months (typically September and December).  I am used to quite a few calls still coming in during the summer but people just aren’t big spenders…. This year? Not many calls at all and the one’s I am getting seem like every excuse in the book is used to not actually follow through with entertainment.

So what happens when it gets slow? Girls get bored and start making risky moves by soliciting in casinos they normally would have been afraid of just because everything else isn’t working out. Who else gets bored? Cops. In recent weeks I have hear a couple of insane stories and for once they weren’t just from dancers. They were from a valet guy at a very prominent high end Strip hotel.  This boredom of the men in black has now turned to the seriously innocent casino workers who struggle to keep their jobs every day and were trying to make a little extra tip money. Supposedly some girls drive up to valet attendants at Strip hotels and ask the valet guys for heads up if “the coast is clear” which to me is kind of silly because that’s really not trustworthy information in my opinion. Either way the word spread to the authorities and they had one of their female officers driving through to the valet asking if the “coast is clear” and if the valet gave the girl any information about a bust going on or not, the attendant was arrested. Right there at his job in front of God and the recording devices. Of course the employee would be fired and probably could never get a job at another Strip hotel again. What would a charge for that be? Aiding and abetting supposedly though it makes no sense because the employee would have no idea for sure what was going on inside of the casino pertaining to a bust or not. I hope they got a good lawyer and even so, that arrest alone would screw up their life. This story made me so mad when I heard it…

I just don’t get how these types of law enforcements are really doing anything for the general safety of the public. It’s a guy working the valet at a casino, not dealing drugs, not stealing and not kidnapping kids. So what is the big deal?

People constantly ask me, “What is the craziest thing you’ve ever seen or been asked to do?” Somehow this question is the second or third question in a group that I get asked a lot. Usually people’s first question or statement is, ”I bet you get a lot of fat ugly old men, huh?” followed by, “What if you show up and the guy is really disgusting?” and then comes the always popular, “I bet people ask you for some crazy stuff”.

As for the crazy requests, no I don’t get a whole lot of them. I seem to read blogs of girls who get more specific requests in their home city maybe because the guy is more comfortable there? I’m not sure what the reason is, but out of the 5 years I’ve been an escort, I don’t have an absurd number of off the wall requests to tell about (well except in emails I get quite a few but they don’t go happen since I think people fantasize more than follow through on the act). Anyway, onto the story!

A service called and said I was meeting another girl at the Imperial Palace for a bachelor party. When we walked in we were greeted by 10-12 young guys squished into one standard room at the hotel (quite small!) but immediately went to talking to the guy in charge away from the bachelor. We got the company fee out of the way and did our strip for the room full of anxious guys.  Once we were comfortable, we started talking about what kind of party they were interested in and what kind of budget they were working with.  They were on a tight budget but then the bachelor gets some crazy idea and says he has a thing with food. Food? He points to the pizzas they had left over from dinner and claimed, “It would be really hot if I could throw pizza toppings at your asses bent over on the bed”.  I was stumped… really? He replied with, “Yea I will pay one of you $100 bucks to do it”. The other girl was eager and yelled, “I will!” while I wasn’t too thrilled of pepperoni being flung at my cheeks. Everyone was laughing and giggling at the proposition while she got in position on the bed. I turned around to watch the crowd of guys while the bachelor did this because I had a sneaking suspicion of what their real plan was: record or take pictures as part of the joke.  I kept an eye and sure enough two guys were trying to hide behind each other and sneak cameras to take pictures of the funny action.

I pointed it out, “Ok guys … no photos please”. Immediately the bachelor stops mid throw and gets irate, “What do you mean no photos!? It’s my party!” and proceeds to get seriously pissed off at me and the other girl because we are so rude to ask for no photos to be taken. He yelled, “just GET OUT, just LEAVE”. My policy is you only have to ask me once to leave so we were out the door in a minute.   At the end I just giggled and thought who really wants to become the next YouTube sensation? I think we would pass!

I wanted to give thanks to Jennifer at the Las Vegas weekly for mentioning me in The Playground blog on their site a few months ago. I really wanted to be interviewed but a vacation kept me from making calls back to Nevada… I’m glad to see Jenny DeMilo gave a great interview though! Don’t ask me why it took me this long to find it but, thanks Jennifer!

And now… another photo! I was staying in a hotel not too long ago when I thought to myself… hey this glass topped sink would make for some interesting photos! See for yourself..

I know I’m a little behind on this but I came across it the other day and somehow wasn’t surprised after the idiot in New England murdered a girl who’s ad was posted on Craigslist. Ever since the District Attorneys for the 40 some-odd states bent Craigslist over their knee to comply with tracking ads, I wasn’t surprised it came down to this. Of course they are just renaming the section but now they will manually screen the posts.

Obviously this is a bad move for Craigslist and a bad move for Internet free speech, or net neutrality. The company has now put themselves into a position that they will be taking some sort of liability by actually posting the ads manually, even though they have no control to the act the person ends up doing after getting a customer through the site. I am all for free speech on the Internet and the whole guidelines that the 1996 Federal Communications Act helped create by protecting the businesses that had web sites run by user generated content, but this is taking a step back and bending for the government so that they have more control. Prostitution is going to happen, no matter how hard you try to stop it. I think Craigslist made some of the police departments around the country kind of lazy because to them, it was like shooting fish in a barrel!

I, personally, used to post ads on Craigslist years ago and stopped when they first started cracking down (especially after I got busted myself) and haven’t really been back since. To me I did it because I had run out of all other options and it was slow around town and walking through casinos and sitting at bars made me really nervous. I just don’t see what the big deal was on there. Men would call up immediately on the phone as soon as it was posted (mostly locals) and were trying to see how far their $150 would go, but then would act extremely insulted when I said that would be okay for a starting point. It rarely got me decent $ and all of the clients had a holier-than-thou attitude. I like it when people treat me on the same level, not like they are so far above me… so I got annoyed quick and after going to jail for it, I stopped.

The funny thing is I found out about this from my new favorite website, http://www.textsfromlastnight.com on a post over here . If you have a spare few hours, the site is hilarious.
