So today I drove 1.5 hours up to meet with a CD group called TCNE. I was a little nervous, since all my previous meetings had been with only one person and now I was taking a plunge into multiple folks. Plus, I had to pack all my stuff and change there, which didn't help my nerves.
I was SOOOO pleasantly shocked. I met over a dozen girls, including another newbie. We chatted about all sorts of stuff, and not just crossdressing, which helped me relax. I got a chance to practice makeup relatively quickly, which given that I tried not to take too much time (after all, I was there to talk to people and not hide out in front of a mirror) I did pretty well.
Huge success, I drove home with a big smile and singing along to girly music through the rain.
TCNE, in case anyone is wondering, is here: http://tcne.org/
