After the Follies

November 11th, 2009 9:38 pm MST

After the show, we congratulated our friend – a local who does a terrific impression of Phyllis Diller – and some of the other acts on their performances. I know what a high it can be after a show, being the center of attention and all.

But seriously, there was free food over at the dance club, probably getting cold every minute we wasted!

Yes, yes, we had dinner. But everywhere we went, everyone was making a fuss over GF’s outfit, and scarcely anyone even had the courtesy to even mutter an obligatory “You look good too,” to me. That kind of disregard can drive a girl to… eat!

Lobster and Follies

November 8th, 2009 12:29 pm MST

Before dinner, we stopped by the port and cheese spread that the hotel has put out every day and we have missed every day. There were still people there, but no wine and no cheese. Missed it again!

We met one of the Fair organizers there – a girl who had strongly suggested last year that I drop the wig and go with my own hair. She is a really sweet person and she’s still giving me hair advice. Thanks V!

We stayed a while and talked, but we had to go before we ended up without dinner again, so we made our excuses and were on our way back to the Lobster Pot for a proper lobster dinner this time.

The Peach Cosmo I had was properly pink, but a really lame drink, it must be said. Fortunately, they are much more expert in their handling of lobster, which was succulent and sweet and altogether yummy. I do love Surf and Turf, and they offer a nice deal on a steak as an add-on...

Dinner for Four

November 3rd, 2009 9:50 am MST

On our way to dinner, we met up with a couple of the Fantasia stalwarts in the hotel bar. They were enjoying a quiet drink but we struck up an easy conversation and could have talked for hours if not for the fact that we had to get ready for dinner. I didn’t even get a chance to do my hair properly...

Halloween Street Party

November 1st, 2009 8:23 pm MST

As they do every year, our gay community organizes a big Halloween bash, closing off the main thoroughfare to cars and giving it over to a group of happy, creative people who party, make friends and generally have a good time. The costumes are always a sight to behold, and with Halloween being on Saturday night, people had more time to prepare ...

Pre-halloween Party No.2

November 1st, 2009 1:09 pm MST

Our next stop was a Kink-Fetish Halloween Party held at a local swingers club. Here, that means that, well, you don’t have to find a hotel room…

Again, it was quite dead – somewhat appropriate for Halloween, I guess, if you think about it…

Interestingly, I don’t think I have seen that many crossdressers or t-girls at this club ever before, even when the place is packed.

Pre-Halloween Partying

October 31st, 2009 9:59 am MDT

T’was the night before Halloween,
And all through the town,
So many parties
But attendance was down.

Could be the weather
Or fear of the flu,
Was plenty of room
On the dancefloor for you.

But you didn’t come
And neither did she,
So instead, hear what happened
From li’l ol’ me!

I know I’m going to get a Pulitzer for that one!

Anyhoo, we interrupt my Fantasia Fair post-mortem to bring you my current Halloween experiences...

Perspective and Pinball at Fantasia

October 29th, 2009 8:18 am MDT

The Fashion Show is one of the two events with some buzz at the Fair. They are open to the public, and the townsfolk lap it up! Both raise money for local charities.

I have commented last year, and it bears repeating, that the girls in the Fashion Show get a rare thrill – to be applauded and shown public love from a large group of people – and all they have to do is muster up the guts to walk to the end of the runway and back. It’s a coming out party of sorts...

Coming Clean

October 27th, 2009 8:29 pm MDT

This is supposed to be my week of R&R, and half-way through I’ve still not remotely caught up on my sleep. I tend to need close to 8 hours generally, but for some reason I’m waking up after about six.

The multiple coffees and cocktails might have something to do with it, I guess.

With the Fashion Show tonight and being in and around town, I expect to run into many more people – old acquaintances and new – and as much as I needed the rest and relax, I may very well be more concerned about the bags under my eyes, which are making me look very old and tired indeed. No amount of concealer seems to be able to disguise my fatigue. How vain a girl am I?

For once – it has been a long time – I started the day off right, by eating oatmeal for breakfast and then going for a run. We ran out to the west end through a lovely neighborhood with nice homes and cottages for rent on the beach – beautiful. Note to self: keep these in mind for a future visit. Also stopped for a photo op on the rocks near the lighthouse.

Exercising felt so good, as did the long slow stretching afterward.

Then, I stepped into the shower.

Our room has this wonderful shower unlike any I had been in before. There is the usual massaging showerhead above, but there are two strategically placed jets on the opposite wall… So, you are drenched in water from front and back… The higher jet was positioned so it hit me between the shoulder blades while the lower one pulsated against my lower back. It didn’t take me long to realize...

Lobster Pot on the Beach

October 25th, 2009 8:38 am MDT

Tranny Week aside, Provincetown is a wonderful place. A small town on the Cape, with beaches and shops and a nice warm feel.

Among its charms is the seafood, and one of the standard-bearers in this regard is the Lobster Pot.

Cycle of Support

October 23rd, 2009 8:41 am MDT

One of the great things about Fantasia Fair – the best thing in fact – is that you make friends so easily and these people are like old schoolmates that you can always talk to, even after years apart.

Among the girls there were two gals who really helped me out last year when I was just finding my legs, encouraging me to participate in the Fashion Show and making it so easy and fun. More than being teachers...

Fantasia Fair -What a Difference a Year Makes

October 21st, 2009 4:14 pm MDT

I arrived in Provincetown last night, tired and fighting a cold.

Tonight, I’m at Bayside Betsy’s bar listening to cheesy Olivia Newton-John tunes like “If you love me let me know, if you don’t then let me go…” and Neil Diamond, and drinking a very delicious Ginger Collins – a Tom Collins with a kick of ginger – very good.

I expect that tomorrow, I will go over to the Fantasia Fair registration office and say hello to those I know and tell them that I’d like to maybe have lunch with them a couple of times and attend a few of their shows, but...

Inflitrating the Mainstream

October 5th, 2009 11:12 am MDT

I turned on the television this morning to a program called “TV Made Me Do It” and they were telling the story of a guy who dresses like a woman in order to add flamboyance to his life, and who wanted to try to sell a house dressed in a wild dress and 6-inch platform heels.

 

Flipping the channel, I came to a commercial for Family Guy, where he is dressed like a female prostitute…

Gala Day at Southern Comfort

September 30th, 2009 5:29 pm MDT

Big things were planned for Saturday, but it mostly ended up being a quiet day for me.

The pool party was confined indoors when the rains came back...

Southern Comfort - Social Butterfly

September 28th, 2009 11:24 pm MDT

Friday at Southern Comfort got a lot more crowded. By now, the sight of a massive group of t-girls seems more normal than not…

I spent a while at Starbucks, finding out how far behind in my emails I had fallen and trying to write up some of my experiences.

I was hoping to get some exercise and some shopping in, but no dice. To be honest, I just didn’t get up any desire to shop. Maybe it was sensory overload, I don’t know, but the urge just wasn’t there.

On some level, I am so overwhelmed that I don’t know what I feel. I haven’t been able to catch my breath. There are about 800 attendees at Southern Comfort, and meeting everyone is a large part of the event.

Truth be told, I am not much of a social butterfly. I want very much to make new friends, but meeting so many new people in such a short time, remembering their names and stories is a big challenge for me.

Friends Old and New

We’ve just returned to our room from a two-hour talk with a fascinating older couple from Texas.

It’s amazing the type of people you meet at this place.

Southern Comfort Debutante

September 25th, 2009 1:20 pm MDT

 

Last night was my first chance to mingle with all the girls at SCC and meet new friends.  I started by finding a few girls I had previously met at Fantasia Fair last year and renewed acquaintances, before summoning up the courage to introduce myself to strangers.

Southern Comfort

September 20th, 2009 10:20 pm MDT

I’ve done a cursory review of the events going on at this week’s transgender conference in Atlanta, known as Southern Comfort, and my first and most obvious conclusion is that I’ve got an awful lot of packing to do.

This is apparently the largest convention of its kind, with nearly a thousand attendees from all over the globe. There are seminars and vendors and planned activities, as well as a few nice parties planned.

Viva Las Vegas, Baby!

August 31st, 2009 3:43 pm MDT

With the tentative dates recently announced for next year's TG bash in Las Vegas, I thought this might be a good time to point you to my musings about the last one.  

The dates are Sunday April 18th, 2010 through Friday April 23rd, 2010.

Reflections in Black

Not much going on in the brain these days, so I’ll use my body instead…

Nothing raunchy, just a gallery of shots of me in black PVC, taken in the mirror.

Some guys have all the luck

July 30th, 2009 5:41 pm MDT

Lunch today was spent with a new friend, such a nice girl whose story is similar to many I have heard: Guy meets girl. Guy gets girl. Guy becomes girl. Guy is alone.
