Relaxation
Like a lot of other guys, my work is something I endure so I have the money to enjoy my weekends, when I can relax.
Although, the way I “relax” is a little different than most guys ...
See, once I get home on Friday afternoon until I have to get ready for work on Monday, I spend the whole time in women’s clothes.
I dont think its a fetish, at least not exactly, because for the most part, I dont get turned on by dressing up.
What I mostly feel is ... at peace.
Free.
No, I dont go out dressed up. I am under no illusions that I look enough like a woman to not get into trouble out there, so my weekends are mostly spent reading, listening to music, sometimes watching TV, sometimes flipping through the net, and doing my weekly chores.
I say “sometimes flipping through the net”, but honestly, I am on a lot. It's the only place I can be my girl self around others, even if it's just as an avatar in a chat room. But even on the net, I have to be super careful. Nobody who knows the girl me knows my real name, where I work, or where I live, just in case.
It's kinda sad, to be honest. I’d love to be totally “out”, both online and in real life, but sometimes, you have to play the hand you’re dealt.
And when Monday morning rolls around, I put away the girl stuff, put on my work clothes, and do what I must to pay for my weekend's “relaxation”.
All the while counting the hours till Friday afternoon ...
End.

Sadly, this is much like me
I go through the charade of being a guy out in the real world, but live for those private moments when I can dress up as a pantomime-horse unicorn and truly be myself! An excellent little vignette, Dorothy...
What borders on stupidity?

giggles, a pantomime horse?
funny, I pegged you for a mermaid!
I was being silly
Yes I do relate more to mermaids, but I was being silly there (what else is new?), and was going to crack some joke about "looking for my other half". But that would raise the question of which end of the horse I am, and I think we all know the answer to that. This megadrabble of yours was a nice little palate clenser, sometimes it's good to step away from pure fantasy for a minute. If I ever finish my stalled epic my next project is going to definitely be something more real lifey---no magic or sci-fi----If a bit Hitchcockian...

Loved this wonderful life
Loved this wonderful life story you have presented to us. I feel that it fits so many in so many different ways.
I also believe that what is mentioned within the story, is what helps those who cannot for some reason or other transition as they wish to; by allowing them to "release the pressure" of their daily life.
Thank you for it, as I also thank you for so many of your stories.
thank you for reading my stories!
I am glad you liked this one!
Bittersweet
Sad but beautiful bittersweet story.
sometimes, you have to make the best of things
might not be able to have everything, but enjoying what you do have is a good idea.
thanks for the comment!
