I've seen Angelica 4 or 5 times, always have had a great time with her. She has high marks on her reviews and they are well deserved although she has had an issue in the past with being on time. However, two things have happened recently that bother me and I now feel compelled to sound a word of caution for others who might be affected.
First of all, I used her as a reference while traveling out of town a couple of weeks back. About two days later I received a completely unsolicited text message from her about 5:30am (yes, 5:30am) telling me she was in my part of Chicago that day if I wanted to see her. Ladies, don't EVER, EVER send unsolicited text messages. Luckily my SO was not with me at the time or it could have been a real mess.
Secondly, I had been out of town for awhile and just came home this past Monday afternoon. I was in the mood, sent her an email and text. She told me she would be available about 9pm. I told her that would work; shortly after I received another text that asked if 9:30 would be ok. I said it would be and even offered to get the hotel room if that was an issue. She replied soon after that she already had the hotel room, but needed some extra funds for "incidentals" while checking in. She asked if I could stop and get a prepaid Visa card for $25 that she could use for the incidentals hold on the room. Having seen Chitownluda's recent review of her (February 2014), this scenario sounded familiar and somewhat unsettling. I asked her to first let me know the hotel she was at as I was not going to go to the trouble of getting a prepaid Visa unless I had confirmation she was actually at a specific hotel. This was about 30 minutes before we were to meet. I received no reply and no response; I sent several more texts with no reply. I followed up Wednesday morning with another text looking for an explanation but still have received no reply. I'm pretty sure nothing bad has happened as I see she is and has been on P411 the past several days (and right now as I type).
Not looking to bash her, she is a sweet person and her high marks are well deserved when you can actually meet her, but I think it appropriate to give other hobbiests a heads up when trying to book with her going forward as her actions have been inconsiderate at best. You should also see Chitownluda's recent review as well. YMMV. Website is attached.
PS - I realize this may not qualify as a true NC/NS since I never received an actual address, but having dealt with her in the past, this type of uncoordinated communication was not unusual. I had actually left my house to hit the ATM and was still trying to communicate with her in the process.
