Last night, I got dressed (nothing over the top) and went to a local meeting place for a group that I needed to interview to join. I was a half hour late, which is unforgiveable I know, but was sooooo happy I went.
Turns out that, unbeknownest to me, there was a monthly meeting scheduled, and my late arrival meant I arrived during the meeting instead of beforehand. The girls were meeting downstairs though, so I asked for my contact when I came in, and a girl went down to get her for me. Turns out, she was the board president.
Normally, they don't allow walkins to join the meetings right off, but I was en femme, and so she just said what the hell and invited me down.
OMG!!! What a wonderful sight to see thirty girls just like me, all dressed, all enjoying the proceedings and having a look to see who the new girl is.
After about 15 minutes, another girl came over and asked me to go back upstairs for my interview. We talked for an hour and a half!!!
I filled out the application and committed to joining then and there. It's about 50/50 ts/cd, they have a traveling choir, they have movie night in once a week, they have a regular meeting once a month, and they have various nights out for dinner or what have you, too.
I have found a home!
Everyone was super sweet to me.
Hurray!
Now, here's the question: How many of you girls attend such functions? What are yours like, if you do?
