I was (finally) out again last Saturday!

I managed to arrange the time, so I dressed and went out to Gigi's in Detroit last Saturday (1/9). The wife wanted to visit a local tavern before I started my transformation, so I got
a later start than I wanted (but the wife was happy). The make-up was the easiest part this time, and it came out better than I expected. I had a couple of outfits planned, but couldn't find everything I was looking for. I haven't bought Lisa any new clothes in a couple of years, so I usually put something together that I have not worn in a few months. My clothes aren't fitting so well as I get older (and bigger), so my selection is getting smaller. I found (and settled on) my brown corduroy jumper, white blouse, suntan pantyhose, boots and a short wig. I couldn't find one of the the shoes I was going to wear at the club, so I opted
to stay in the boots all night. I finished my dressing with the addition of some jewelry and perfume. I set up the camera and tripod, took some photos, unhooked the camera, put it in my
purse, said goodbye to the wife (busy in her office) and left about 10:00pm (she didn't notice the short outfit with a coat on!).

I stopped at an ATM for cash, and arrived at Gigi's around 10:40pm. I managed to get a
parking spot close enough to the building that I could use my remote starter when ready to
leave. Once inside, I paid for both levels (but didn't go down to see the show, yet again) and
headed to the bar. While waiting for the waitress, I was greeted by Emma and Jaye Marie.
Also there were Jackie, Chrissie, Laurie Beth, Debbie, Brandie, Kelly and Tracy. Shelly was also there, but ignored me as her usual way. I visited around, noting some new faces, as well as some familiar ones who haven't been there in a while. There were two mature gurls there, showing the rest of us how it is done! Later more arrived- Anastasia, Kiki, Marcy, Michelle and a Hott DQ performer from Toledo, just to mention a few. I danced as long as the 'good' music played, watched the pool players some, and visited the rest of the time. As the crowd began to disperse (after 1:30am), I finally got a chance to chat with Lynn, a gurl I haven't
seen in over 3 years (she claims to have a photo of us together). I said my farewells, and
headed to the door. I started my vehicle, and recovered my coat from the coat check. After a
5 minute warm-up, I left for home. I stopped for a snack at the WC (which I finished before
arriving home), and arrived home around 2:15am.

The wife was already asleep when I arrived, so I set up the camera and took lots of photos,
and a video as well. I had planned on doing some outfit changes and even a photo or two out
in the snow, but the hour was late (about 4:00am), and I was getting tired. I took care of
my heightened physical needs and changed back to drab. I left my Kiss Stick-on nails and a
bracelet in place till the morning. One of my New Years resolutions is to clean-up and
organize Lisa's things so they can be found easier. I even found the missing shoe while
putting my worn clothes away.

This was my first outing of the year, and the first since Dec. 7th. I am planning to go out
again Jan. 23rd., and have scheduled an outing in March for the Annual Crossroads Chapter dinner/dance. I thoroughly enjoyed my night out dressed enfemme!

Huggs to all,

Last time out . .

. . was Dec. 7th, 2009.
December was a busy month for me, so I didn't have time to update this blog.I haven't worn this outfit for almost a year- white pantyhose, black knit jumper (from the 1990's), leather boots and a white turtleneck sweater. I opted to wear my black bob wig, which is also from the 90's (I tried to mimic a look in photos taken 10 years ago). I had gotten the earliest start in years, and was ready to leave by 8:45pm- my wife wasn't home to complain about the dress length. I took a few photos before leaving, and headed out, stopping at an ATM before arriving at Gigi's.

The parking lot was nearly empty, so I got a good spot. I went in, paid for both levels, and headed upstairs. I was greeted by Jaye Marie, Jackie and Chrissy. I ordered a drink, and made my rounds. Being there early, the place wasn't too busy, and the music DJ Russ spun was easy for me to dance to. Between dances, Jaye introduced me to a (lovely) new face, Kelly. By 11pm, the place filled up. I didn't go down to see the show this time, but I did some schmoozing upstairs instead. I saw Anton (The Impaler), Megan, Brian Behave, and others who's names I forgot (getting older is a bitch).

Around 1am I made my rounds, said my good-byes and left. I arrived at home about 1:45am, and since the wife was sleeping, I started to take as many photos (and a video or two) as my memory card could hold. Around 3am, I shut down the photo session and changed back to drab. The only concession I made was to leave the Kiss Stick-on nails on my fingers until the next morning- I wanted to get my moneys worth out of the nails (being home without the kids around allows me more freedom).

Dec. 19th. we were out of town, Dec. 26th and Jan. 2nd I was down with a cold which turned into the flu. I am looking forward to going out tomorrow night (Jan. 9th) to Gigi's. Should everything work out, I'll also be out 1/23. I am also planning to attend the Crossroads Chapter Anniversary dinner/dance in March.

Huggs to all!

Went out Oct. 14th...

Oh Hell YES!

I managed to get out once again on Saturday last (11/14/09). I got a later start than I wanted, but I acceded to the wife's wishes for socializing prior to my dressing (what can you do?) I was finally ready about 9:30pm (after trying on various outfits and wigs), but I still had to do the nails. I finally left around 10:30pm, and had a photo taken by the wife before I left (uncluttered background settings were extremely limited). I stopped to buy gas on the way, and was eye-balled by a number of (male) patrons.

I arrived at Gigi's around 10:45pm, and got a prime parking spot. I went in, paid only for upstairs and sashayed my way in. I saw many of my friends immediately- Tracy, Debbie, Brandie, Leah, Jacki, Chrissy, Laurie Beth and Anton. I ordered a ginger ale, and said hi to those I recognized. Other gurls who walked in (or came up from the show) were Wendy Seymone, Megan (finally in gurl mode), Jaye Marie, Brian, Angela, Tammy Brianne and a few gurls I've talked to before, but don't remember their names. Russ was spinning the tunes I could dance to, so I did! Once the music got too young for me, I circulated around, chatting up many of the ladies. Apparently there was a 'tour'group there, and someone with a boat air horn kept calling the missing people for departure- What a distraction AND a headache! Jaye introduced me to a gorgeous gal I hadn't seen before, and who I can't recall her name (damn my failing memory). I hung around till closing and left before the moment of truth (when the lights come on, and you find out if your make-up cuts it or not).

I got home around 2:25am, and the wife was already in bed. I cleared a spot in our living room so I could take some pictures (and a video or two as well). I shot for almost 45 minutes, and decided to try on the Star Trek "Uhura" dress I bought for Halloween. It was a tight fit, but I still love it (I'm going to get a custom made one by next Halloween). A dozen more photos in different wigs, and settings (outdoor) before I filled the memory card. Since it was way after 4:00am, I reluctantly put away the photo gear and made my change back to male mode, after cleaning up the pile of wigs and clothing I had created!

All in all, it was simply wonderful to dress and get out again. My last outings since May were Hellbound on Oct. 10th, and Gigi's Sept. 19th. I hope to get out on Nov. 28th.(if I'm lucky), which is another Hellbound night. Thanks to all the gurls who welcomed me back- it made all my effort worth it!!!
Huggs,

PS photos coming to my Flicke page shortly!

oops! Didn't make it out...

I didn't go out tonight- I'm feeling kind of ill, so I opted to stay home instead. I hope to try again on the 14th,. if I'm healthy.

The following weekends are questionable, so it may be December before I am able to go out again. Keep tuned.
I'm on my way to bed and some sleep...

Tonite, 11/7/09

I know it is short notice, but I thought I'd let my friends know I'm dressing and going out tonight. I will probably do Gigi's, my favorite T* friendly establishment.

Hopefully I'll have some photos to post tomorrow...

Hellbound, Oct. 10th.

I'm a little late in posting this, but I have had a lot to do these last 2 weeks.

I did manage to get out 10/10 to Northern Lights Lounge in Detroit for the Noir Leather Hellbound Fetish event. I wore all black- sleeveless PVC dress, Leggs Sheer pantyhose, knit long sleeved bodysuit, gloves and knee high patent platform boots. I dressed at home, but I got a later start than I planned, as I attended a fundraiser my wife was involved in before hand.

I left for the event around 10:00pm, arriving about 10:40 or so. It took me about ten minutes to find a parking place that was within walking distance. After entering the establishment, I turned in my advance purchase ticket, and started to wander around. Within moments, I was greeted by Noir Leather owners wife. What a doll! She remembered me from the last time I made a Hellbound, and complimented me on my outfit. She offered me a seat with her and some of the notable people there. I wanted to look around, and see If I knew anyone else there, so I declined. It took me awhile to get a drink (ginger ale), even though it wasn't very crowded. I didn't see any of my T* friends there, a disappointment. A couple of men I've seen at previous Hellbounds said hello, and some hot looking ladies introduced themselves to me during the night. After standing for awhile, I found a bondage chair available near the stage, so I made myself at home. The Noir owner, Keith stopped by and warmly greeted me. He asked to take my photo, and since I had left my camera in the car, I accepted his offer. He asked my permission to post one of the photos on his website (http://www.noirleather.com), which I readily agreed to.

I sat in the chair for nearly an hour, until a bossy Dom lady ousted me. I wandered again, and during a break in the entertainment, I visited the ladies room. A drunk lady came up to me there, and asked me to carry her out. In my platform boots, I didn't think I could. She hopped her butt onto the sink counter, and wrapped her legs around me. She kissed me, and smashed my face into her breasts. I was leaving plenty of lipstick prints on her skin and face. When other women came in, the diversion allowed me to unwrap her legs from my waist and guide her out of the restroom. Her 'date' called out her name, and I guided her to him. When he pulled her out of the bar, I went back to the restroom to check on my lipstick, makeup, wig and earrings. A little touch-up, and I returned to the event. Many of the ladies there either smiled or winked at me, including one booted babe who had her male friend kissing her boots and legs, while feeding him bottles of beer. She kept looking at me, no matter where I was. After the shows were over, I said my goodbyes to our hosts and headed to my car, somewhere around 1:00am.

I decided to stop by Luna in Royal Oak for a drink, since it was alternative night there. The place was packed, and I was way overdressed for the crowd. Most were young enough to be my children or grandchildren. Lots of people noticed me, mostly males reading me. I got some interesting looks from some of the girls, though. At one point, a girl stopped to talk with me about make-up, especially eyelashes. She complimented me on my outfit and make-up. I told her I felt overdressed, and she suggested I stop in on a Friday night- I might feel more comfortable. I finished my drink, and left about last call. It was only 5 minutes back home, and the wife was still up. I broke out the camera, and shot a couple dozen photos, and recorded a couple of videos. I felt wrung out about 3:00am, and put the camera equipment away. It took me about 20 minutes to change back to my male self, and was in bed by 3:45am or so.

I had a great time, even for not seeing my T* friends there. The venue was one of the nicest ones they held a Hellbound at in many years. My thanks to Keith and his wife for making me feel so welcome. And a special Kiss to Keith for posting my photo on their website. I look forward to the next Hellbound...

I have the next 2 weekends busy with Halloween parties (straight, unfortunately), so I won't be getting out dressed any time soon. I'll post when I will be going out.

Wouldn't you know it. . .

Things conspired against Lisa to get out, again.

I replaced a license plate light (the locals look forward to pulling you over for the least infraction, so they can add to their score on DUI arrests), and tested the lights. The lamp I replaced worked OK, but the headlights wouldn't. So I delved into the wiring harness, and broke the connector pin responsible for the problem. I had trouble with this before, and I thought I had solved it. I couldn't fix it by the time I had to get ready, and the wife had the other vehicle. I was without transportation, so I was out of luck. I didn't go out as planned...

This solves one problem, and created others. I will be going out to the Noir Leather Hellbound event at Northern Lights Lounge in Detroit on Oct. 10th., but since I missed last night, I may miss Oct. 17th., which I had planned on. I have two straight Halloween parties I am expected to attend on the 24th and 31st, so I'll miss the Annual Crossdresser /TV holiday (again).

Look for me at Hellbound. I may try to visit Luna that night as well ( their alternative night), but we'll see.

Looking forward to getting out again (especially in fetish gear).

Huggs,

Miss Lisa D.
