Today was a first for me! Weekly I go to Hamburger Mary's for a girls nite out, but I've never gone any other place.
Sooooooo, there is a Native American Art exhibit at the Nelson-Atkin Museum in Kansas City and I decided to go as Bria. I got all dolled up and drove to the museum, well about four blocks from the museum for a parking spot. I wasn't entirely sure I'd be able to get out of the car, walk to the museum and actually go inside, but I did it! On the way up to the entrance I had to walk past a group of school age kids and some adults. Not a thing happened other than I walked past them, no reactions! Inside the museum I had to interact with a lady selling tickets, had to give her a name, phone number and a zip code, again no reaction. Went though the exhibit at times standing right next to other people, no reactions, or at least I didn't see any as I was busy looking at the exhibits. Or maybe the museum made them leave their pitchforks and torches at the door!!
On the way home from the museum I stopped at Target to look for a black bra. I went into the Starbucks for a cup of coffee before I did any shopping and sat down in the corner facing the whole area for an Isha experiment. The Starbucks wasn't very busy and I was the only one seated at a table as a number of there people came in, got coffee and left. Two couples came in and ordered, while they were waiting one of the guys looked at me and turned a said something to the other guy who then glanced at me. Did they make me? I don't know, they said nothing that I could hear and they didn't look again or stare. A mom came in with four teenage girls and I thought that the jig was up, but none of them even seemed to see me, what a disappointment!!
After I finished my coffee I went shopping, didn't find a bra, but I bought a bracelet and a lady's wrist watch (they were on sale). None of the other shoppers gave any adverse reaction nor did the teen girl at the cash register. Maybe I'm invisible. Well, at 6' 3" and 225 pounds I'm pretty sure that I'm not invisible, nor would I pass close scrutiny.
Sorry I don't have any pictures, because I haven't figured out how to reduce pictures to the size for posting here (computer challenged). Anyway, much like an Isha experiment, other people are busy with their lives and don't notice or don't care.
I had an interesting day!!!
Hugs, Bria
