Everyone who warned me about going out en femme would be addictive was so right!
All day at work I was thinking about my little excursion last night. I even bought a pair of high-heeled boots in anticipation of my next stroll.
I came home and guess what?
My wife got called into work.
So as soon as it got dark, I got my make-up, clothes, and new boots on. I was so nervous my hand was shaking as I was putting on my make-up.
Again it was dark and cold and I wore my hooded coat, but I was in full regalia underneath. I even remembered my purse.
This time, I walked further (20-25 minutes) and along a busy street with cars passing by.
I really concentrated on my walking. I really feel I got the sway down and I even held my arm up very daintily at every patch of ice I came to.
Close to home, I had to pause to let two cars proceed at the intersection. I don't know if or how much of me they might have seen.
I don't know if I feel all that much more confident, but it was thrilling. I think this fix should hold me for a while.
