So...Oberlin has this thing called Dragball once every year, where, yes, everyone dresses up in drag.

I wasn't gonna go, but it's a huge event here, and my friends convinced me a few hours beforehand to go.

I figured I'd just slap on some of my female friends' clothes, have my friend Bethany do some quick make-up, and I'd be good.

Oy vey. It took about 2 hours to get my costume ready. High heels, dress, necklace, earrings, makeup, pigtails, etc. etc.

But I must say, dragball was WICKED fun. Getting to dance like a woman was very amusing, and they brought in a professional transvestite to host the runway walk for the costume contest.

And yes, there are pictures. I sent them to foobonic.

Oddly enough, a few people actually thought I was a woman. An odd-looking one, they said, but female.
