Captisa County Pageant: Truck to Tiara

 

My son, Justin, was disappointed when it was announced that the mud bog at the county fair was canceled this year. He had spent weeks modifying his truck for the event and was always into masculine hobbies being a boy’s boy. To cure his depression, I advised him to find another activity. Justin complained that he had no interest in livestock or growing the county’s largest watermelon so just wouldn’t attend at all this year and would just stay at home playing video games. It hurt to see my son act like this and just throw away all social activity since the one event he wanted at the fair wasn’t going to occur this year. But there was another event that was may get canceled this year. Heard from the girls at the salon that the beauty pageant was to be canceled due to lack of participation which were they were obviously unhappy about due to lost revenue, but that one of the girls had said there were a number of boys who had appointments coming up and would be made over as proper young ladies!

You should have seen the look on Justin’s face when it came home to find his presents on his bed. There was a pageant dress, nail polish, bra and panties, a gift card to Starbucks, leggings, wig, makeup supplies, hair brushes, rings, cute PJs, a pink sweater, heart necklace, teddy bear, princess perfume, set of Intuition razors, and heels. He was confused at first, but I smiled and assured him that he would be in better spirits and have a blast being one of the girls in the Miss Captisa County pageant! He threw a fit about it, but calmed down a little when I said I would buy him some truck supplies if he got through the pageant. It would just mean a few weeks of learning how to act like a lady, talking like a girl, and being the prettiest he could pull off. Once he started shaving his legs and using the perfume, I noticed a few changes in his personality. He seemed a little softer, wanted to open up to me about more topics, and even watched a few chick flicks with me at night. He was now going by the name Julia for the pageant and couldn’t wait for the talent portion where he would do a comedy routine inspired by Amy Schumer. We made an appointment for him at the same salon I went to where he would turn into a long-haired blonde beauty.

By the looks of how much he progressed, I’m having a motherly instinct that the truck parts I promised him will soon be replaced by the gift of new feminine decor for HER room, thousands of dollars in makeup supplies, and a new pink Jetta.
