Local Blogs: Dressing In Drag

Feb. 24, 2009 3:36 p.m. • 0 comments

I’m easily talked into things. Some of my buddies at work had something special planned for an upcoming Mardi Gras fundraiser. Someone had bailed out on the deal, so I was asked if I was interested in helping out. As always, I threw myself onto the wagon. The first sign of trouble was when my daughter wondered why her Daddy would be looking for a dress at Value Village. She kept peeking under the dressing room door, with a giggly confusion. I also found it’s pretty hard to find size 12 high heels, and ended up settling on some chunky brown sandals/Otis G. Experience. More here.
