Crocker Park Wine Festival

Prequel: On September 13, 2022 I worked and finished my day a little early. When that happens, I try and stay near for a little while in case something comes up at the last minute so I headed to the mall. I only intended to walk around for about half an hour. I checked into a number of favorite spots, simply looking for a bargain too good to resist. I did not see one, so on a whim I walked into Victoria’s Secret. I chatted with a few of the SAs and took a look Bombshell bras. I have always wanted one, but they are a bit pricey for me.

I left and went to one more store, but could not get the beautiful royal blue and black lace trimmed bra out of my mind. So I headed back (remember, I am in grubby male mode), told the one SA I changed my mind. I asked for a bra fitting and to try it on. No problem with either. I had her check everything for fit and a purchase was made. I asked if I could wear it home, so after I purchased it she gave me a fitting room and I put on my new bra! It is extremely comfortable. I am now wearing a bra 24/7 on many days and am enjoying the “normalization” of doing so. I strolled out of the mall, clearly with breasts, nothing else female on me at the time. No issues.

September 16, 2022 I took the new Bombshell out for a spin and continued my recent trend of “just being me”. I was just me at VS. On this day, I had intended to wear a wig all along, but when I removed the hair claw I was wearing while doing my makeup, my hair fell just right. I primped it a bit and went with my natural hair.

I worked this wine festival last year and really enjoyed myself, so I did it again. I simply had a great time during my shift. I was pouring for the same distributor, who remembered me fondly.

I got quite a few compliments on my blouse and my necklace and simply had fun and fulfilled my requirement of sampling the wines so as to give educated answers to questions, like I have any idea what I am talking about!

Here is my co-pourer (he did reds, I did whites), Mike. Did not know him coming in, made a friend going out. This picture was taken after we knew each other for about half an hour, as per usual, no issue.

Before I reported for my shift I poked around at a few stores. Soft Surroundings was undergoing a store closing sale. I saw a lovely yellow floral maxi dress, but didn’t try it on as I didn’t have the time.

After my shift, I went back and tried it on. I melted. That dress, way over my usual budget requirements, will be worn soon and she is all mine! Two spur of the moment purchases. Got to watch those!
