I finally hit the wall last night big time. Too much noise with all its accompaning fatigue and too much sex. It's almost noon but I still can't get into gear. Just the thought of getting into one of these cramped trykes and hassling with the horrendous congestion downtown is enough to send waves of nausea through my sore and drained body. And I don't know if I even want to see a near naked woman today at all. Now you know what I called this post "splat!!!!!. Cause that's how I feel right about now.

I had my first runner last night and couldn't care less. In fact, on the ride to the hotel I was thinking of how to get rid of her when I finished so she did me a favor. The way I see it, sometimes you want a companion and other times you just want some warm holes for a short while. $1000 for the bar fine, $170 for our two drinks, $50 for the tryke ride, and $500 for a tip. That's just a wee bit more than $30 US Dollars. She was clean, ok looking, killer body, and tight. I got off fairly fast, we laid there for a bit, and then we went our separate ways. That works for me. Oh, I forgot to add all the fondling I did of her while in the bar. That alone would cost you $30 in many countries.

I've decided the best way to deal with this place is to take your time. You can always return and the sheer number of women guarantees you will find a person to fit your immediate needs. It must be a very different life for those who stay on. Probably a lot more low keyed since there is no sense of a deadline to "do" a certain amount of damage while here.

TF, don't sweat the 'runners', there are a ton of willing replacements out there. If you're tired of the trike rides and noise, there are other hotel options available. I can highly recommend Central Park for both location and relative quiet.

Re: girl selection, Ladies' drinks are so cheap in AC that it may not be a bad idea to get 2-3 girls to join you in the bar at the same time and then pick the one that makes it clear she's the one that wants to go with you. If all of them flunk the 'vibe' test, get a few more. If you're giving out 500 pesos tips to 'runners', wouldn't this be a more efficient use of funds? And if you like diddling ONE girl in the bar, try it Epi style and juggle 3-4 at a time!

In any event, keep plugging, mi amigo. I am actually surprised you haven't fallen in LOVE yet!

Good advice Porker, I think location of the hotel is paramount. I hated those cramped trikes.

Also, I would start collecting those cellphone numbers for the favoritas, so you can call them to join you in the afternoon or otherwise. I also liked taking two girls (AC and other places) as the girls loved to keep each other company and we all had more fun. Less incentive for the girl to bail.
