Cami's First Time Out

Post by Cami »

I had been planning a trip to Nashville for months. I was going to meet a few girls there and take my first step out. The car was rented the Hotel was booked the outfits were picked and the other girls had made their plans to meet there. I should really know by now not to over plan. Two days before I left Alaska I learned I had to help drive my inlaws south........GRRRRRRR! I packed Cami's things in hopes of being able to turn this all around.

With the plans up in the air Cindy decided to keep here reservation and come up to see Stef. Long Story short and a 100+ MPH burn across Tennessee put me at the Hotel @ around 10PM Friday just in time to catch Cindy & Stef http://www.whynotb12.com/cami/DSCN3359.jpg . This is the first time I had meet either of these wonderful gals, and let me say that it was an instant friendship.

While Cindy got ready Stef gave me a Makeover and showed me a lifetime of tricks & tips about makeup & Dressing. She is a goldmine of information!

By Midnight we were all ready and Cindy and Stef stepped out of the hotel room, I wasn't so quick to follow. Stef patiently waited for me while Cindy ran ahead to get the elevator. That first step was tricky but I had great friends to support me & I took my first step out in full dress. http://www.whynotb12.com/cami/DSCN3323.jpg This pic was taken by Cindy about 20 Seconds after stepping out (I felt much more nervous then I looked).

We made it out to the car with no problems and drove to the first club; I can't seem to remember the name of the place unfortunatly. Cindy gets props for an Awesome parallel parking job, in Heels even! I timidly stepped into the club and promptly got carded lol. I recall my hand shaking as I handed her my ID. She looked at it, smiled and handed it back and that was it, whew. The club was quite dead (Thank Gawd!) we had a drink and decided to try another place.

The next club we went to was a real cool little place called the Gas Light. This is a very neat place. Stef was telling me that it used to be a Speak Easy back during prohibition. It seemed very T Girl friendly. A few people came over to chat with us and I even surprised myself at how calm I stayed lol. The people here were very nice and it was a great place to get my feet wet. I was very comfortable in this club and we just sat back and chatted until final call. We got a few pics here and in the alley and decided to call it a night and by the time we made it back to the hotel it was almost 3 AM!

We spent the next afternoon in boy mode shopping and recouping from the night before. We decided to get ready a bit earlier this time. LOL I'm not sure how many outfits and Wigs I tried on before settling on what I did. I now know what Women mean when they say "I have nothing to wear"! I ended up wearing something I never thought I would EnFem....Pants! Who would have thought?

I had no problem stepping out of the room that night; it was the elevator that I choked in. That night at the hotel there was a reunion for WW2 Airforce Vets. As soon as the elevator doors opened I heard the Voices and froze! My legs locked! Stef wasn't having any of it, and she just pushed me out of the elevator :shock: lol (TY for that Doll!). Don't ever Mess with Stef http://www.whynotb12.com/cami/DSCN3439.jpg :) . On the way out we passed a man who had seen us get out of the car earlier in boy mode. Stef was laughing as we got in the car as the man slowly put 2 & 2 together.

The club we went to this night was a busy one *Gulp!* called Cabaret'. They have a Drag show here, something I had never experienced before. This was a crowded club! I was a bit nervous here due to the crowd but nothing that copious amounts of alcohol couldn't help! The show was great, the people were great & we got complimented on our looks! I was just soaring @@9@@ . Afterwards Cindy took a few pics in the parking lot and we started the trek back to the hotel.

Before Stef left we took a few group pictures http://www.whynotb12.com/cami/DSCN3440.jpg and chatted until around 3 or 4AM. Stef had to leave as she had to get up early the next morning. That night CNN had a special on crossdressers, go Figure lol. Cindy & I said our Good Bye's the next morning and just like that the trip was done. I drove back to Mississippi just beaming!

The whole experience was just great. I'm so glad that I made the trip after all. I now have 2 more friends that will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you both for making my first time a special one, I owe you both so much. Something to be said for "Southern Hospitality"! I'd like to say sorry to the girls that didn't make it due to my scheduling issues; hopefully the next trip will go off without a hitch. And Yes there will be another trip; it seems to be quit addictive! TY to all who took the time to read this long post.

Hi Cami,

I'm with Darlene about those pictures. :) If I ever post a going out story I think I'll do that too. :)

You look fantastic!!!! So did Stef and Cindy! :)

In that first picture I thought your pose was kind of like a mannequin, but now I totally understand why. rotf Mannequin or not you looked beautiful!!!

That was such an excellent post. It's another push in the back for me to get up and get out of the door. I'm paralyzed with fear about going out on the town. :: gulp ::

I applaud you for wearing jeans! =D> That was a great idea, even if it was only because of what you had to wear. You looked very comfortable.

Again, wonderful post, recap, and presentation of what happened. It was like I was there. :)

Congrats and I hope you post about your next trip too!!! :)

Hey Girl!!

It was great seeing you and ANYTIME you plan to come down I will be so happy to see ya! You're the best! You did great! I have helped many girls take their first steps out and you were by far the most fun and more relaxed than any of them. :) You are a natural!

Hugs,
Stef

PS I'll try not to get you trashed next time! LOL http://www.whynotb12.com/cami/DSCN3412.jpg

Bravo for helping our gal (now your gal too) Cami out! :)

Stef, you're super beautiful! Sure I say that because I think you have a pretty face, great figure and nice legs. :) But more than that I also think it's because you have a great smile and you seem to be very comfortable with who you are. You are also so caring for those who need help taking their first step out (as you stated in your post). All of those qualities make you one beautiful TG'd gal! :)

People like yourself and Cindy should get awards for being so selfless and helping others to get out and about. =D> =D>

Welcome to the forum, please take off your shoes and stay for a while. I think you'd be an incredible boost to the board.

Hi Cami,

Fantastic story, great pictures, and a fabulous evening out. I love reading about it and, like Beauty, I feel pushed towards the door. Unfortunately, I don't look anywhere near as beautiful as you and your friends. _P Thanks for sharing your fun.

Hi Cami--
Very nice presentation, and the pictures do help a lot! Thanks to Cindy and Steph for their input and pictures, too.

I'm glad you had a good outing on your first time. It helps to have experieced guides to pick you up by the elbows when you're wondering what to do next.

Thank you all for your wonderful and kind words! I'm glad that I can tell the tale, very glad! Even though I had a wonderful time going out En Fem I have to say the high point of the whole trip was meeting these two Wonderful Gals! How Lucky am I to have this kind of experiance and a chance to meet these cool people coming from where I do. Cindy TY so much for making the drive to meet me, next time I think it will be a Alaska to Atlanta trip (I'll bring the Fruit Loops)! I might have to go pick up Stef and Drag her down......(lol Pun intended) Because we can't get Trashed without her, now can we? And Stef what can I say? You have helped so many and you are such a wonderful gal I agree with Beauty you need a trophy or something. You are an Awesome gal and a Hottie! Thank you for being you.

Thanks Cami, Beauty and Cindy as well as all of you that said kind words!

I know how hard it was for me taking my first steps and how happy I was when I finally found someone willing to be my guide and show me the nightlife as well as showing me how to avoid the darker side of our lifestyle. When I asked her how I could ever repay her, she told me that somewhere down the line someone would reach out to me the way I reached out to her, when that happened to give them the same help she had given me and we would be even. That's what I am doing, if I can help someone become the person the want to be sooner than they would have had they not met me then I have done what I set out to do.

I don't deserve a trophy or anything. Just seeing the excitement in a sisters eyes from finally being able to be seen by someone other than the person in the mirror is thanks enough! I have been out awhile and at times lose touch with how fortunate I am to be able to get out like I do and helping others actually is helping me! Helping me to realize that life is too short to take anything for granted!

This lifestyle has granted me the opportunity to make some wonderful friends who I know are only a phone call or an email away if I ever needed them. Friends who are closer than anyone I see on an everday basis!

I hope each of you have a wonderful weekend!
Hugs,
Stef

PS Cindy, you asked what took me so long......well a girl HAS to make an entrance! :P

Cami........Atlanta sounds like a plan to me! Just say when! :lol:

Hi Stef,

You're welcome. I understand why you say you don't need a trophy, after reading your story about the person who helped you. :)

BUT!!!

LOL if you think that this is an entrance for Stef you should see her go into a club! That girl has it going on and she is comfortable with who she is. the first time I met Stef & Cindy was like I had known them for all my life. How often can you make that claim?
