The Las Vegas Courtesan

Sorry I have been neglecting you all. I have been working my butt off practically non stop so I can take some time off and travel to far away lands. I hope to take some pictures and post them along the way whenever I get internet service and stop having fun 🙂   This summer has been a roller coaster of sorts where one night is always different from the next. Well that has always been true since Las Vegas has such a ebb and flow to it but in summers past it’s always been consistent but at a lazy pace unlike the crazy spring time convention season.

September is usually the second slowest month behind December for me. I am sad I will miss the first few days of MAGIC because the fall one is bigger than the spring one but hopefully tomorrow will be more clients from the show. The rest of the month is a good time to take off, I think. Hopefully this September doesn’t turn on me and end up shocking us all at being good. That would be just my luck..

So I have had a lot of people ask me about the Las Vegas economy and how it’s effecting me. I will definitely write a lot more about it in it’s own special post because I have a lot to say. Times are different for sure.

So it’s official… the state turned down hearing about the bill to allow legalized prostitution in Las Vegas. A bill was being drafted but they were informed by the current legislature that the issue won’t be taken up this session. Some are disappointed, some are happy… but I am in the middle wishing it had been debated some (it’s always interesting to hear what people’s opinions are) but not wanting it to pass. Apparently they had gotten so far as to writing a part of the bill that would allow Mayor Goodman to have 3 operations open under a temporary trial phase until a board could be established. The discussion about the Legislature passing to hear about the measure was found at the Las Vegas Sun.

So the springtime is usually a rollercoaster of sorts as one convention comes into town and another event ends, sometimes there can be strange lulls in business and then one random Sunday night it can be good. I am used to these swings in the springtime, but this year has been way more of a rollercoaster. I loved the business the roofers, construction, concrete guys brought in, but since last Thursday it has gone from odd to strange. Last night I got really lucky on one good call and it was dead for the rest of the night. Tonight I have been bored and working on my computer from my car as I wait for a call. Hey, at least it has given me time to write an entry that was much needed, right?

Let’s just cross our fingers for the M.A.G.I.C convention this year… even though I wrote this not so promising entry last year. Maybe it will be opposite this time! Ehh… maybe…

This week is the MAGIC convention (I can’t find what it stands for but its basically a large fashion show for clothing makers that draws a lot of people). You could have fooled me that these people were even in town because it has been fairly quiet and the people I have gone to see on calls were not even here for any particular reason but to go on vacation in Vegas. The only reason why I know the fashion people are in town by the way people were dressed in the Venetian while I sat to eat at the Grand Lux Cafe. Great people watching site along with great way to assess how many crazy people come to Vegas. It’s amazing.

Besides the convention in town the other event going on is the hurricane force wind storm we are having. We get an amazing amount of wind here during the spring months but tonight is just something else. How’s a girl to keep her dress down in this weather? Heh. The answer is: she doesn’t! I am sure that is a factor in tonight’s quietness. I have seen at least two signs smashed to bits and a P.F. Chang’s sign that seemed to be speared by itself and slid down til it stopped on the larger part of its support beam. Wow. What a mess.

Hope some guys stay in their room and decide to get a girl to stay warm n’ toasty. I can surely help.
