Thank you Wendy

Thank you for showing this girl a good time the night before last. You not
only took time out of your schedule to meet me, which in itself was a leap
of faith since we have never really talked, but you went out of your way to
take me out for a while. You have made a friend.

For the rest of you reading this - the night before last, Wendy met me on a
spur of the moment kind of thing. Wendy (another TG) was kind enough to pick
me up at my hotel and take me out for a while. I wore a pink longsleeve
scoop neck top, black leather skirt, tan stockings & black heels. We went
out to Temptations, a Gay/Lesbian bar and had a few drinks over the period
of a few hours. The experience was a very positive one for me. We had some
wonderful conversation over the course of the evening and I truly feel as if
I have made a new friend.

Well, I'm on the way to chicago. I'm still hoping to be able to connect with a girl or 2 out this way. I guess i'll figure out something to do when I get there.

Water cooler conversations

It's kind of funny... You always hear about the conversations at the office water cooler, this isn't quite like that, but sort of... I was helping one of our sales reps (female) with the stuffing machine (folds & puts paper in envelopes, in case you didn't know). We ended up having a conversation about high heels & our preferences in heel style. Keep in mind, this is in the middle of the office during the work day. Half the office was within earshot of the conversation, and not a comment was made. I love being me!

Ah, the wisdom of a 4 year old

This morning my 4 year old daughter came into my bedroom as I was getting dresed. My top dresser drawer (where I store my breast forms) was open. She pointed to my breastforms and stated "Those don't look like real boobies". I replied "They are fake boobies". My daughter then felt one and stated "They don't feel like real boobies". I replied "That is because they aren't real". Her reply "That's silly".

I'm having fun

Yesterday I got dressed up after work. I wore a pink top, jean skirt,
stockings, pink heels. After work the boss called me about a problem
connecting to the office. I had to go in & fix it. Since nobody was going to
be there anyway, I went as I was. It took me about 2 hours to fix the
problem. It felt good to be at the ofice en femme. :)

This afternoon I wore bootcut jeans, pink heels, pink cami and went with
cutelouise & my wife to Atlantic City. I have pics of me on the boardwalk
and in front of some of the casinos. I'll get them posted to my site over
the weekend. I can't wait for the next chance to do this!

I love being me!

One of my co-workers (female) just came into my office and saw my background picture, the same one that is on my home page.

 

Her: "Look at that hot babe, what would your wife say if she saw that picture on your computer? Don't you want a picture of your wife on a motorcycle instead?".

Me: "My wife knows all about the picture"

Her: "Who is she? She's hot,"

Me: "That's me"

Her: "No Way"

Me: "Yup, that's me"

Her: "You're kidding me, right?

Me: "Nope, that really is me"

Her: "Wow"

WAHOO!!

We just got back from my parent's house. I have to say that all went as good as I had hoped, and better than I had expected. It took a while to find a big enough break in the conversation before dinner to bring te subject up. Once I had broken the news to my parents, my mom's response was "OK. So, you are a cross dresser..." My dad didn't say anything, as I expected. My mom said "It's not like you're gay or anything", not that that would have really bothered her either. My parent's only real concern is for my safety, and that this wouldnt cause us any trouble, especially that our daughter would be picked on because of this. I plan on teaching her to respond appropriately when this does happen.  My dad tried to imply that I could stop doing it, but I told him that this is who I am, and that it really was OK. Conversation moved on to other subjects with no ill effects. Only time will tell how well they accept it, but I would say that they will accept my cross dressing to some level. I don't know how they wil ltake to actually seeing me as Heather, but they will not have a problem with it either. I am very relieved that it went as it did. Yay!

 

 

Wish me luck

It's P-day (Sorta like D-day, but we're talking the parental units...lol)... Tonight we're going over to my parent's house for dinner. They have seen me dressed up last year on Halloween, and are used to ther Rocky Horror in my post-high school days. I intend to tell my parents that I am a cross dresser. It shouldn't come as a shock to them, but I think my dad will be the one that takes it hardest. He's not Mr. Macho, but he is the one that will feel like he did something wrong, he should have ben there more when I was growing up, etc. I plan on telling them that No, I'm not gay -  No, I don't want a sex change - No, they did nothing wrong - that I was hard wired this way from birth. This is who I really am. I am not going to show up as Heather to do this. I think that would be a mistake. I know they have noticed my 3" heeled boots that I wear regularly (2 different pairs) but they have never said anything. I think it will go somewhat smoothly, but it is scary at the same time. I'm a little nervous, but I have my facts straight and know what I am talking about - I proved this with the DYFS worker last month. Once my parents know the truth (or is it once I confirm their suspicions?), I will be more free to CD whenever I want and go out in public without fear of something going wrong. My one neighbor works at the same school as my mom, so there is a fair chance that she has heard some things already from the neighbor. Any advice is appreciated from those that have been there.

 

Wish me luck tonight. I'll post an update tomorrow or maybe late tonight depending on how it goes.
