The Coin Show

 
 
Saturday 4/30/16 I went to the Coin Show that was at a local Church activity's hall next door to the church.

I really have little knowledge of Numismatics although as a kid I did collect penny's and dimes (all I could afford) and used to collect stamps that I would order for 1 or 2 dollars from advertisements in different magazines I used to read. They would send maybe 100-200 used stamps that had been postmarked and were torn off an envelope, hey what did I know, I was around 10 years old and we didn't have TV so it gave me something to do.

Since I dress up on Saturdays I figured it would be a fun thing to do and maybe I would get a little education, well I got more than I expected.

As I walked in I was greeted by an older couple, it turned out these two people were within 1 and 2 years of my age. The lady handed me a card and asked me to fill it out with my name address and phone number (as I always mention, I don't pretend I pass, so I try to ease the introduction with something humors) I looked at her and asked, you're not going to use this to ask me for a date are you, with that the older gentleman said, well you're pretty enough. I was happy they took my joking comment in stride and I replied, I don't look to bad for being "--" (my age). They both gasped for air and said you're not even close to that and said that's our age, I proved it to them and they were astounded, they questioned how I stayed looking so young and I could only say, I'm happy now.

As I walked into the main hall I glanced around, possibly it was busier earlier but I saw about 40-50 vendor tables and about the same in people who were either seated or standing discussing potential purchases or sales (they were doing both at the show).

I started to check out coins on one side of the isle and then walked to the other side and was just pretending to be interested when the person from his table said to me "you look much better in person than your pictures on the internet.

I'll post his email he sent this morning because it details everything without me saying anything.

Good Morning Louise,

It was so nice to meet and talk with you at the Linwood Coin Show on Saturday afternoon!  I have to tell you that you are so much prettier in person than your pictures on the internet.  When you came to my table, I knew instantly who you were, but I was amazed at how perfect your hair and makeup were.  I kept trying to find some flaw in your appearance or something that would give away that you were not a GG, but there wasn't anything, that gave it away (to me anyhow).  What amazed me most, was your poise and confidence being dressed and out in a public place.  You had command of the entire room.  I wanted to ask you so many questions, but  the time and place just didn't seem right,, and I am never great thinking on my feet. 

I have been dressing myself for about 4 years now.  As I told you , I am married, my wife is 10 years older then me, and she has health issues, so she would never understand or allow me to dress.  Judging by comments that she makes when a Cross dresser is on television, I know that she would flip and throw me out of the house, if she found out about my "hobby". 

I was hoping that you would be open to me occasionally emailing you to ask you questions and tips about dressing-up.  I could not help but notice how good you looked in that little black dress yesterday.  How do you get those feminine curves???  They looked slightly exaggerated but absolutely  perfect!  Your ass was sticking out, and I am sure that you were getting lots of attention in that room yesterday.

Again, it was a pleasure to meet you yesterday.  Thank you for stopping by and chatting.

Sincerely,

bob  aka "cindy"
