CES & AEE

Yea - sounds funny when you first think about.  A bunch of nerds gearing up for CES (Consumer Electronics Show) and a bunch of porn stars gathering up for AEE (Adult Entertainment Expo) all at the same location...yup, thats Vegas for ya.

I arrived on Tuesday, the 6th, and have not yet been able to rest my feet. My poor feet are freaking jacked up from all the walking and running around I've been doing, and its not even near over.  Andddddd I've been wearing my handy dandy Nikes...

So yea, CES is enormous.  I'm a first timer so I'm still oh-ing and ah-ing.  These companies go allllll out to show the world what they have going on and coming out in the future, its insane. 

The AEE is ridiculous. I felt like a sleazeball getting my Press badge because 1. i knew i wouldnt be writing jack. (well, i guess i am aren't i) and 2. because i dont watch porn, know no one in the industry and feel embarrassed with the thought of being in a room full of ppl that think im into the same shit they're into.  I like people thinking I do nothing but shop and read.  No one should know anything about my 'other life' nor should they ponder about it, unless they're involved.

Anyway - so I go to get my badge and this attractive older man (yes, you know it, 30+ just does it for me) is walking alongside me and my friend and starts chatting, all nonchalant, and then im even more embarrassed because hes throwing names (briana banks?? who the shit is that)...and I'm like 'alrighty then sir, im here because my friend signed me up.' and then i ask him, all naive and stuff, like what i should expect, and hes like 'ohhh, i own that video (pointing to these massive posters) and im like great.  a freaking regular porn watcher.

Point is - I took my badge and hid it. (that was yesterday) 

Until today.  I went to the damn expo this morning & afternoon (yes, twice) and I walked all over the place.  In the morning they were still setting up so I bounced quick and in the afternoon there were tv screens all over, w/ porn playing (i couldnt even look, im such a kid).  there were porn stars everywhere, signing stuff, so me, being cool, was getting posters signed for a friend back home. 

All in all, i think the porn industry is pretty freaking nasty. the one thing i wanted to do, or see, actually, not do, just see was Ron Jeremy, because it seems like everyone knows who he is.  I got to see him less than an hour ago, coming out of the elevator I was going into, and I didn't have my damn camera because I let my friend borrow it.  I was sooooooo tight (in a non-sexual way) and then I just looked at his arm candy and thought, wtf, she looks dominican, and as if shes in high school w/ implants. Horrible.

That industry has soooo many attractive females, like not in the fake boobies kind of sense, but these girls that just drive you to wonder what led them to that 'career', if it can even be called that.  Say what you want, but as a child I never knew anyone that wanted to be a porn star.  Never. Not even as a teen.  Not even in college, where people experimented.

I wanted to talk to one and ask them how they really felt about it.  Like how can you do something thats supposed to be so intimiate (im a woman people...for men its diff't. i know. mofos...) and commercial it?? or mass produce it, like doesn't it just lose its coolness when its so routine and acted out?  im not sure. maybe this is me whipping out my 'im young and dumb and still believe in love" card, but its mind numbing to me. 

the people in the industry wear pancake mix as makeup, get enormously large, horrible looking, sideways, crooked, too separated breast implants, and wear wayy too much eyemake.  it looked like halloween, te lo juro.

anyway. i took a bunch of pics but im not going to post the aee ones. sorry.  if i ever date a man thats into porn, id definitely take him to the expo as a gift.  its like bringing a mickey fan to disney, im sure they all dream of it.
