Closing This Review of Las Vegas

Love it.

Hate it.

The Cosmopolitan: Fabulous to look at it. Room service/Housekeeping is lousy but maybe they’ll get the kinks worked out. Remember, they’ve only been open since December 2010. Last time I was on their website they still had job openings for $10-$55 per hour positions. Warning; want to use your mixologist skills working one of the bars? Better be very attractive, very sexy, and very young. I have a 50 yr old friend who was denied despite that she’s attractive, sexy, and good at her job.

The prostitution; I found it oppressive. I kept thinking about Annie Lobert who had worked as a prostitute for 11 years, making as much as $500 an hour. She said she hit rock bottom when she overdosed on cocaine and everything went black. You can read her story here and how she got out. 

I’m back home now. I like the simplicity of my own bathrobe, cooking pancakes for the family, and genuine hugs and kisses from my loved ones. Don’t get me wrong; the traveling has been great but it does make me appreciate home.
