Willie and Julio

”To All the Girls I’ve Loved Before,” played on the radio. I have no idea which station that throwback was on but it brought back a fond memory.

Is it called “drag” when a woman dresses as a man or just “cross-dressing?” Whichever, I was purposely costumed as Willie singing opposite to a devilishly handsome actor in my studio class, who obviously fit the part of Julio Iglesias. We nailed our lip-syncing duo act for the talent show. We had the audience in stitches. I know exactly where the photo of that event is stored, but it’s so grainy in it’s older technology it’s not worth bringing out of the depths of the closet. Just know I looked pretty darn Willie Nelson-ish.

It still makes me smile to recall that mini-moment of hilarity. Maybe I was a drag king?
