Back in Singapore. Feels a lot like home.
Catching up on things, working, planning trips. Looking forward to enjoying Asia and Australia/New Zealand. Next time I plan on being back in the US? Vegas in July for the Desiree Alliance conference.
-- I will be unreachable via any of my US numbers but email always works. My international number will change with every country.

I've discovered the pleasure of working with Brian Gardner's WP themes. His Revolution is mind-blowing and he's actually a nice guy. Although his work is easy to use right out of the box, there's infinite fun to be had by customizing (i.e., destroying) it. As you can see here.

Yeah, I can definitely see that I would not have a good time with brothel work. I don’t hustle very well and I really want my donation amounts to be clear and not subject to negotiation…unless it’s for a higher amount. Though I agree with you. It is the system that needs some serious overhaul.
So. About another week left, huh?
Everyone wants a piece of me, but I only have so many pieces to go around. Why weren’t they willing to pay a fair price for it? How can I work them so they can? Why do they think the hottest thing in there (their viewpoint) is going to be somehow cheap?
In their defense (to the extent I’ll call it that), they see you in the vacuum of their individual experience, not agains the totality that you experience. They don’t know that you’re that popular (I would assume – you don’t wear a sign, do you? lol).
I am beginning to see your point about the system needing to be refined. I’ll be curious to hear your thoughts on that at some point in the future.
Alexa,
They might not know I’m popular, but surely they can figure out other men have also found me appealing. Besides, it’s insulting to tell a woman how hot she is, then turn around and tell her how worthless she is.

The whacky scheduling and pressure to make money at any cost to your psyche (like doing guys drunk/drugged in the wee morning hours) reminds me very much what it was like working for the escort services. Plus forking over half the money you earn.
The dynamic with the other ladies working there is interesting too. I love reading all this!
Peridot,
Well, it’s new to me. I’ve always been an indie. I had only a couple brushes with escort services (check My Adult Industry History link to the left) and it was nothing like this.
More to come, I assure you.

Excellent point.
Alexa,
That was a lot of my experience stripping as well, just in different ways.

I somehow could never upsell people in the strip clubs like other girls could, neither here or in Texas. I don’t know what it is but I could never get it even after years working. Somehow I can when escorting. I am constantly sent to calls where other girls couldn’t work things out and left, then I go in and make $600. Hope you find your style and get what you deserve for pay!
