Self respect would only hold you back.

Sometimes a little self-loathing is helpful to this avocation.

Wednesday. About 6 PM. The Dream Boutique, fka Charlie's Dream, is an adult video/toy store that sometimes hosts "live nude girls" in a series private room in the back. It shares a parking lot with “Ball Busters” (a pool hall), Jerry’s Corner (which may be the weirdest store you’ll ever enter), a swingers club (all of which are in the same building) and the Purple Orchid, which is on the other side of the parking lot.

I parked out front. It was already dark. As I walked to the door, I saw a woman talking to the driver of one of the cars in the lot. It seemed like they were planning a deal, but it wasn’t my business, so I ignored it.
