Brothel Phones Nancy

One of my girls just called in a bit of a panic. She used her real name so it took me a second to recognize her on the phone. Plus I'm kind of exhausted so I was in bed. She just got off the phone with her attorney. She's going through a messy divorce, her husband was abusive, and there is a kid in the picture. This place allows her to work and make enough money to get through the custody battle. Her lawyer was furious. I didn't realize that she had been drinking before our interview -- I at least tried to hold out until 5pm before I had a cocktail. This was one of three interviews where I concealed her identity, so you can't see who it is.

I told her anything remotely personal about this saga would not be part of the film. My intention is not to highlight girls in bad marraiges and brothel work, but she did want me to also erase anything she said about Dennis. She and her friend sort of trashed him -- but on the phone with me now -- she said, "look, its a different world here, I don't want to put a bad taste in his mouth -- this man that is allowing me to work here legally and make money."

So much for job security. I'm not sure how I feel about the Dennis stuff, she and I will keep in touch when I look at the tapes.

Looking at the tapes... soon the HIGH of everything having gone so well is going to wear off. And then I'll look at the tapes and see all of our mistakes.

But for the past few days, the HIGH mixed with exhaustion, has been pretty good.

And my detox diet starts today... no more bad stuff in the system.
