This is intended to be an inspirational story, I suppose.
Today was so beautiful that I decided I needed to go to the woods. The woods are a decidedly safe place to venture en femme, I think. Considering how seldom anyone goes to the woods these days there isn't much chance of running into an awkward social interaction. Perfect!!
This is the inspirational part: Don't let dressing keep you in! Find ways to live life out an about however you can. For me today, that meant running around in the woods. Normally I wouldn't have gone out while dressed, but today was too pretty to sit inside. I was rewarded with cool breezes up my skirt, and the best mushroom score of my life!!! LOOK!! I didn't take any, though, because I have a freezer full of this particular type of mushroom already. Let it grow.
Also, I know I'm overdressed for a hike, but I need the makeup and my hair tie broke early on, meaning I had to leave my hair down. Oh well! I got a new skirt from my wife (new to me, old to her) and was inspired to wear it out. I thought that it looked pretty rugged and I thought that it would be nice to try that "casual look" that someone told me I "rock". I wanted to see if I could pull off combat boots and still look feminine- feminine enough for me, anyway.
