Broke all my rules

I finally gave into temptation and decided to check out this New York institution. Usually when I go into a club, I sit at the stage, throw some dollars at the strippers on the stage, turn down most the women who aggressively pursue my wallet, get dances for maybe 1-3 songs, pay with cash, and leave.

I sat at the stage (nobody else was sitting there for some reason...Maybe the women more aggressively pursue you if you're there). That was the only rule of mine I followed here. The dancer on stage was putting on some seductive dance moves but I didn't get a chance to watch too closely because it took about a minute for the most gorgeous woman I've ever seen in my life to come over. A tight black dress that emphasized her features, blond hair, jewelry, "bad girl" eye shadow, a beautiful smile, and a willingness to show off her best features sucked me in. No other woman I saw in the club -- nay, in my life -- came close. She got me to the back area with the couches for 6 songs. There were other guys and girls there, but it somehow felt intimate enough that they didn't disturb us (There was however another woman looking around and monitoring all of us...She felt to look at us for a bit too long, which was a bit of a turn off). She tried to sucker me in for more songs and the champagne room, but she wasn't too aggressive about that and was understanding that that wasn't gonna happen.

6 songs was a bit much...Her dancing was extremely sexual but not creative enough for me to justify 6 songs. But whatever, I was in the "zone" because she was just so frigging beautiful. I opened my wallet when I was done to find that I hadn't properly taken the cover, the drink I'd bought for her, the drink I'd bought for myself -- all at outrageous Manhattan prices, and with expected tips -- into consideration. This is the first and hopefully last time I went overbudget and had to use a credit card to pay at a strip club.
