I got invited to a really big management company's launch party. It was a big deal. I met a few casting directors and academy award winning directors there. I brought my friend Lacy* to the party because she lives 3 doors down from me. It was a fantastic networking opportunity for me. I was hanging out with the owner of the management company and saw my friend Lacy* (young 24 year old lady) exchange numbers with the owner of the management company (45-50ish out of shape, bald, older man). I didn't think much of it. Making connections is a good thing. When he was out of earshot she smiled at me and said, "He's going to be so easy. I'm going to lead him on and use him as a sugar daddy for as long as I can!"
I asked her not to do that. I explained, "You are here as my plus one. If you screw him over badly, who knows? He could get so angry he could blackball my name in Hollywood and I could never work again!" She laughed and said, "He doesn't know that many people in Hollywood." But that wasn't the point now was it?
She ignored my request. That is not someone that deserves to go to these types of parties.

Your friend Lacy is WACK!!!! she has no cooth at all. Just be careful of who you have around you at these big events you go to. You seem to be a business woman so always base your company on your events. I know that sounds shallow but hey at the end of the day you have to live with the choices you made. Love TD.
