My last outing...


Was Saturday, February 4.

Although I didn't get as early a start as I had planned, I still was mostly done with my transformation by 8:50pm, and left the house by 9:30pm, which is considerably earlier than normal. Earlier in the day I had picked out the outfit, purchased nails, and did some necessary grooming in preparation for the night. I was unable to find my (damaged) camera, so I borrowed my wife's. The wife took a few photos before I left, so I didn't have to deal with the tripod and single shot timer. I was going to wear a coat, but opted for a maroon sweater which I ended up wearing all night.

I arrived at Gigi's just before 10pm, also early for me. I was greeted by Russ, a real sweetheart, taking cover charges.There wasn't a large crowd, but there were many Gurls, out numbering the guys and gals. Ashley, Sherry, Leah, Angela, Tracy and the always gorgeous Candace May were there, as were other 'usual suspects'. Anton (aka The Impaler) was also there, and took some photos for me. I didn't see regulars Jaye Marie, Chrissy or Jackie, though. The bar filled up after the shows let out.

I danced a few songs (oldie type music) early, chatted with Anton, Candace, Ashley and Sherry (nee Debbie), and had some refreshments. I had planned to leave by 1:00am, but hung around till a quarter of two before saying my good-byes. I was home by 2:20am, no stopping for a late night snack.

Once back home,I set up the tripod and camera, and took a few photos before cleaning up and putting 'Lisa' away. I was in bed by 3:30am, again early for me (as of late).

I don't know when I will be out again, as our oldest son is moving back in with us. He doesn't know about 'Lisa', so I will have to be very discreet. The wife promised to cover for me some night, but I will have to get a motel room to change in.

It has been a long time since I did that. . .

Huggs to all,

Saturday, Feb. 4th.

It looks good for dressing and going out tonight. Unless something comes up, I'll be going to my favorite venue, Gigi's Cabaret on W. Warren in Detroit. I hope to be there by 10pm, if I get started dressing early.

See you there?

Uh oh!


I had planned on going out on January 21st, but life conspired against me again! My desktop PC died the week before (could not post notices). On Jan. 19 I was in the process of building a new PC when I seriously cut the palm of my hand on the sharp inner pieces of the case. I did not want to get stitches, but my hand was reasonably unusable, and I would not be able to pull on pantyhose, fasten a bra or corset, put on boots, etc.

The hand is healing nicely, but I don't have time this weekend to go out. Things have gotten complicated with our older son as well, and he may have to move back in with us for 90 days or so. That will ruin any attempt for me to dress until after he moves back out. I'm trying to manipulate his moving in around one more outing Saturday, Feb. 4th. He will be moving back out around the time we launch our boat for the summer, which has always signaled the end of my dressing season. Because of this, I may try to wangle a night or two during the summer for outings. The weather (and wife) will determine when I am available.

If I'm unable get out, I will probably post some old photos of myself on Flickr to keep my pages from becoming stale.

The photo above was taken after my last outing to Gigi's in Detroit. I was fooling around with some lingerie, wigs and variations in the outfit I wore out that night. I took over 240 photos that night!

Huggs!

Happy New Year!


Looks like I started the year off right for a change! My plans to get dressed and go out on the 7th. started off as I had planned- School Girl outfit chosen and ready, make-up available, and wigs found. All I needed were my Kiss stick-on fingernails, which I planned to pick up after breakfast. Well,we didn't go for breakfast until 3:30pm, so I was late. Bought the nails, and we stopped for a drink at our favorite watering hole per my wife's request. It was after 5pm before I was dropped off at home to start my transformation process.

I took a long shower, carefully shaved (twice), trimmed fingernails and toenails, and began the make-up. I was just finishing up when the football game started. I caught bits and pieces of the game in my travels between the bathroom and my dressing area. I tried to wear the outfit without wearing a foundation garment, but things were too tight. I added a corset which made things a bit easier. I also opted to wear only my compression tights with the socks I chose. I had 4 or 5 choices, but settled on my white nylon calf length socks. I selected my short redhead wig and made for the fingernails. By the time I was ready, the wife returned home with her carryout dinner and sat in the living room where I wanted to take pre-departure photos. I rearranged some things, set up the tripod and began shooting photos while the wife watched the end of the game and ate her dinner. It was 11:00pm when I finished, and left the house. I stopped at the ATM on my way to Gigi's.

Since I was sooo late, there was an opening in the free parking area near the street, which I took. Once inside Gigi's, I paid the cover for both levels (didn't get to see the show, AGAIN) and headed for the bar. I purchased a beverage, and did some socializing. Anton (aka the Impaler) and Gary were there, as well as other regulars, like Ashley (last month's kissing bandit victim), Leah, the fabulous Tracy, and a tall vixen (who's name escapes me). Angel was there with a GG friend, so I took photos of her (she is always such a camera whore), It looked like she was having too much fun, and dropped a drink on the floor, breaking the glass. Angel and her companion left shortly thereafter. I was late enough that many regulars had already left, and there was also the low attendance due to the Lions game. I flirted some, and swapped stories with Ashley, Leah and one of the nicer admirers. Some of the Latin contingent 'on the make' arrived, helping to increase the crowd size. Once the show downstairs ended, the place filled right up, with a group of GG's included. All the ladies were dressed in some sort of club wear, and were very Hott! I stayed right up until the 'Moment of Truth' (when the flourescent lights come on, and you find out if your make-up still cuts it!), and left for home.

I didn't stop for a snack, and arrived home around 2:45 am. My wife had left me an egg roll from her dinner, which I devoured. I moved the photos from the first part of the evening to my PC's HDD. I then assembled the camera to the tripod, fumbled to start the self-timer, and started shooting photos. I tried on different wigs (3 total), three different pairs of socks and two pairs of shoes. The camera started to shut itself off, so I emptied the card again, noting 190 photos taken! I put fresh batteries back in the camera and shot another 49 photos before I ran out of ideas and energy.

I put everything away except the purse, and removed my clothes, and took off most of the make-up. I left the nails on to be removed later that Sunday. My wife noted my after 5 arrival to bed.

I really had a great time- the dressing was most enjoyable, and the outing to Gigi's really capped the night. Some of the photos I took are now appearing on my Flickr pages (miss_lisa_dee). Thanks to all who were there, and I hope next time there will be more people to meet and greet. I'm also hoping to dress at least twice a month till boating season begins.

Huggs,
Lisa D.

Target for tonight: Gigi's!

Yes, friends, I AM getting out tonight (1/6) for my first outing of the year 2012!

With any kind of luck, I may even leave the house early. I've decided on my schoolgirl outfit (I found the wigs I misplaced in December), washed the blouse, tried on the skirt, cleaned the shoes, found leg wear and I'm going for the fingernails shortly. I have enough make-up, and I have a backup outfit ready, just in case!

Although our Detroit Lions are playing, and many won't be out (I suspect), I'm still going. I'll be able to keep up with the football game on the TV screens at Gigi's.

If you see me, stop me and say hello!
