Cinderella

Last Sunday my slave and I were in a GLBT wedding expo at the Hotel Albuquerque, organized by the amazing M.Montoya-  who  by  the way-  officiated our wedding and was AMAZING!  When we agreed to do it, we really didn’t know what we were signing up for.

It ended up being from about 9-2 for us and it was amazing. We had the best time.

 I was in a tux representing Ann Mathews bridal wear, and my slave was in a white wedding dress with a train.

 When we showed up that morning I had already told myself- “let’s do  this”   I wanted to  be open  to the experience  and everything that it would challenge me with.

It was challenging in so many ways- I allowed myself to do full hair and makeup- I thought - this is a once in a lifetime experience so why not?

So the people at Ann Mathew’s bridal LOVE their GAYS! And the makeup and hair people from Bliss Salon were really wonderful as well.

I can  say that this challenged me so  deeply-  I don’t wear makeup of get my hair what’s the word-  juzzed-  the only time I ever did this in  my life was at prom- and I was 18 years old. 
I am 41 now.

It was deeply difficult for me to have those things done- my hair and makeup- but the cool  thing is that I walked away 1) knowing that I could and 2) with  a better understanding of who  I was now in  comparison  to that 18  year old girl  who  just so  much  wanted to  be a  Cinderella -  I knew that I couldn’t ever be that -  but I just wanted it for that one night.

And now - I have become who I was meant to be.

Not Cinderella- but a different kind of fairy tale life- with a stunning, amazing, magical wife. And love in my life so strong and so powerful that I seek monsters to conquer now- instead of hoping the monsters don’t come to me.

What a powerful day.
