So yesterday I was seen by the post lady, I posted a thread about it. Today I decided that I needed more so decided to go to the little news agent in the next village that has been pretty much the only place I have gone dressed up. I done my make up perfect today and was wearing black jeans, black heels, black top and black cardigan, a few sparkly bracelets and a black woolly hat with sparkly decorations down one side. Oh and a cream scarf with sequence patterns. I wish I knew how to attach photos from my phone . As mentioned in the past I don't wear a wig yet so the hat made me feel less exposed! I went, I grabbed a bottle of Diet Coke, had a small conversation with the ladies in the shop and left! The past few times I went I was filled with anxiety and could barely talk. Today I was fine. So much though that when I sat in my car I felt quite disappointed that the buzz was less this time. After about 5 mins deliberation I decided to take the next step. Off I went on a 10mile drive to a much bigger town with every kind of shops typical for its size in Scotland, pubs, chemist, supermarket, vetenatians, whiskey shops, beauty salons... I'm sure you get the idea. So I eyed up the chemist as I remembered I needed new cotton pads. I had to park in the very centre, people everywhere of all age and genders. The chemist was across the street about 100yds away. I opened the car door and went for it. A few people looked but that was probably more the sound of the heels. I felt quite comfortable. As I approached the shop door I began shaking a little as I didn't know what was about to greet me as I went through it. Thankfully it was full of women, maybe 6 working and 4 having a little shop. I went and got my pads and then noticed a huge makeup area 😍. So naturally I was drawn to it. At this point everyone had looked at me, some just looked and said hi and a few others have me a second glance. I'm pretty sure I was passing. If I had flats on nobody would have even looked! Any ways I picked a new bronzer that a young lady next to me recommended and went to pay. Nobody seemed to bother at all. Like nothing. No drama. Either I passed or they just didn't care. As I left I was feeling super confident so walked the long way back to the car walking passing multiple people with a smile and hello! I know the news agent ladies know that I am indeed a man but I'm not 100% sure anyone even noticed today. If they did they didn't care. It's not exactly common here in this part of Scotland so I doubt they have seen a CD'r often. I feel happy . Thanks for reading.
