Hello. I was out in Northern California again. I was in Sacramento. I had finished my work for the week; and had planned to go to San Francisco. But, the weather was bad, and I was generally tired; so I opted for a daylight outing in Sacramento. I dressed in a short A-Line skirt, floral top, black sweater from Ann Taylor, black tights, and black ankle boots. I did not know where to go, so I went to the midtown gay area called Lavender Heights. I walked around a bit. There were quite a few people out. There are offices there and people were out for lunch. No one seemed to give me any notice. A group of ladies were out for lunch and one lady said hello; she may have made me, but was impressed with my outfit. I was feeling really confident.
I went into one of the bars and had a diet coke while I thought about my options. I did not want to go for lunch, not hungry, nor go to the Crocker Art museum and wander around. I decided to go to Macy´s downtown. I have been out a lot in New York and San Francisco where no one really seems to notice. Going out to a high traffic area in a medium sized city is new for me.
I went to Macy´s, walked around and no one seemed to pay attention to me. I looked at shoes, none in my size. Then I went upstairs and looked at the INC section, nothing interesting. Then I ended up at the MAC counter. There was only one sales lady and she was too busy, so I waited. Finally, I asked about a new concealer because it did not quite match my foundation. She sat me down and tried out a new option.
While I was seated, she began helping another woman, an attractive 40 something woman who was purchasing for her daughter. When the sales lady stepped in the back she started telling me a story about her daughter. I was impressed with myself for a bit; I think I had done a good job with my look and was really blending in. Then, I was a bit concerned. I think I can fake the female voice for a few small phrases, but if the sales lady did not come back, I might actually have to converse. Fortunately she came back and I was forgotten. It was a great experience.
