Ok, picture Phillip Seymore Hoffman. Now add about 60 lbs. Don’t forget the stretch marks, cause of course he isn’t wearing a shirt. I know it’s hard to take your eyes off that massive belly that’s covering his gross black sweat pants but pan up… ignore the gold chain, and over sized pendant nestled in the curly blond chest hair, keep panning up. It’s worth it. (by the way, what’s with gross men wearing gross black sweat pants? If you or your man have gross black sweat pants, throw them out! If you don’t think they’re gross, they probably are) We’re above the shoulders now. His sweaty greasy head which looks like PSH’s younger brother. And a magnificent mullet. Seriously. His hair is about as long as mine, going down to his mid back, and the tight curls are clumped together due to him constantly stroking it with both hands from end to end. Don’t forget the three inch long French tickler. Are you weirded out yet??? I haven’t even told you the story.
By the way, this was the last call of the evening. I am going to tell you about my night backwards.
When I make the initial call, I’m filtered through dispatch, opposed to a cell phone number. Not ideal. Typically guys will ask me about me. What I look like, what my rates are, when I can get there. This guy asked no questions. It was weird. I didn’t have the greatest feeling about this. When I called the agency, I let them know about the call. When I get there, I go up to his room, and I can hear him sleeping. I knock loudly hoping that he’ll here me. No dice. I call to the lobby and have them call the room. I could hear the phone ringing on my end, but not through the door. Mmmm… This night is not going well. I bang on the door, and shout his name. Finally I hear movement, and he opens the door. “Hi! I’m Alison,” I say, “Were you sleeping?” “Yes,” He mumbles, he doesn’t look happy to see me at all. “Are you Tyler?” “No.” No? What the fuck.
I am certain I have the right room number. Am I not at the right hotel? I walk down, and start looking for signage, and there is none. What the hell kind of place is this? I go out to the parking lot, and see a large sign for the hotel I am supposed to be at in front of the door of the hotel I am at, but despite this I am not at the right hotel. Stupid airport hotels. There were two hotels sharing one parking lot. So I drove to the other hotel –yes I drove, it was far, and my heals were high – and went to the 406 of that hotel. PSH opened the door. I wouldn’t say he was surprised to see me… I’m not quite sure what word I would used… stunned? Shocked? Maybe Startled… “Hi…” He says, “Uh, Ok… Uh… Wait… Hold on…” “What’s going on in there?” I can see there is someone else in there, but he has already closed the door on my face. What the fuck. I hear the dead bolt slowly lock, and the latch creek across the door. I can hear him talking, but I can’t make out what he’s saying. Less than a minute later he opens the door again, and invites me in. I don’t want to cross the threshold until I know what’s going on. There’s another woman there. I don’t know who she is. She’s in her 40’s, long blond hair, about 30 lbs over weight, and shops at Wal-Mart. Who is this woman? Is she his girlfriend? Wife? Another escort? I don’t know how to ask “Did you call another girl?” She says pointing at me. This man is frazzled. Clearly very high on something. Constantly stroking his hair. I just can’t help admire the blond mullet. It’s epic. He mumbles and stutters a lot, and he’s trying to talk his way out of this mess he’s gotten himself into. “Hi,” I say to the woman, “I’m Alison from…” and I tell her my agency, hoping she will tell me who the hell she is. “Ok, you need to figure out what’s going on.” The woman tells him. She doesn’t introduce herself to me. “Could we have a threesome?” he asks, helplessly. “No,” We both say. I’d like, more than anything, to get out of this situation. I’m still closest to the door. “Listen,” I say. We’re past being nice to this guy, and are just blunt. “It’s $70 for me to walk through this door. I don’t know what’s going on here, but I want that money so I can go. “Do you take credit cards?” I hold out my hands, “Does it look like I take a credit card? How were you expecting to pay us? How much cash do you have?” I ask him, and quickly realise, it’s way to many questions for him to process. “How much cash do you have?” He can’t/won’t answer this question. “Your ad says you take debit.” “No it doesn’t.” I say with certainty. He goes and gets the phone book and shows me. Sure enough. What the fuck. “Well, I don’t” “Those phone books are old,” The woman pipes up, “Agencies don’t take credit cards any more.” This goes on for a little while, various solutions are offered. Finally this woman volunteers to pay my $70 out of the money he’s already paid her, and we both leave.
The call before that was at this completely random hotel that I’d never heard of also out by the airport. It was quite classy looking. I made it there in good time. When the client opens the door, I see the cold sore right away. It’s a gooder. He hands me the cash right away in an envelope, and invites me in. “I don’t know how to say this, but I’m going to have to decline,” I say as politely as I can as I put the money back on the table. “It’s just that your cold sore is a concern to me. I hope you can understand.” He moved his hand up to cover it. I felt bad for the guy. He seemed nice. “Did you want me to call another girl for you?” I was trying to make this as not awful/awkward as possible. “No,” He says, obviously humiliated. Sorry dude. I didn’t get the $70 from him.
And yes, I did not forget, today was emerald day. My Texan regular who went to South America and said he’d bring me back an emerald. Before I left last time, he re-booked for today. I phoned him yesterday to confirm, and he didn’t call back. I tried him a couple times, then again today. I thought he was going to blow me off. My last msg. was going to be telling him that I was just teasing about the stone, but I didn’t have to. He confirmed. Surprise! I went over, and it was very friendly, very girlfriendy. The problem with being to friendly as soon as I get there, is we start chatting and then I have to interrupt things to collect the money. . In the TV series, Secret Diary of a Call Girl, with every client she has, as soon as he walks in the door, he hands her a thick envelope. No discussions. If only it was like that in real life. Sure enough, one thing is leading to another and before we get to carried away, I stop, and ask if he can pay me, he says yes of course, and continues to kiss. I sit back on the couch, just out of his reach, and he reaches further. “If we could look after that now, I would appreciate it.” I tell him. Frick. Why do you make me ask. It’s over there on the table, and I go get it. There’ll be more later,” He tells me. Uh-huh, there isn’t enough here to cover what he’s getting now. Last time, he didn’t pay me enough either. He paid me a lot, and it was mostly conversation. He made a big deal about being able to pay me, but I told him, that if it was going to be a regular thing, we could let this one go. I knew saying that, that it may or may not be a regular thing. When I counted the money, I stated the amount with a question mark on the end, and he got the hint, and handed me more. Dude with the cold sore just gave me an envelope. That’s the way it should be. Anyway, I stayed for less than an hour with Mr. Texas, and left without emeralds. Oh well.
