What are you thinking? 9.0

[Devlyn]

Looked around and realized last night I'm almost living full time, (Who! What! How! on earth did that happen). Only a few steps to go but one of them is the metaphorical equivalent to eating an elephant.  I'm vegetarian can I get my elephant made out of tofu? No make that back beans and rice with a decent spicy sauce. (mmm drool)

So sorry, no substitutions, please!

[immortal gypsy]

Well I have no qualms in killing an animal and attempting to cook it if someone else will eat it. Anyone hungry I promise I will do all the heavy lifting

[Devlyn]

<taking off the lobstah bib and putting on the elephant bib>   I'm all ears!

I glanced over at the girl I like, and she looked away so fast I thought she was going to break her neck. :/

She's probably waiting for you to make a move. She certainly seems interested in you and so scared to make a move that she's using her boyfriend as a safety net in case you don't return her feelings.

[immortal gypsy]

How would you like your steak cooked tonight. Just please don't ask for a sandwich, right now I'm out of the really really big rolls

[Devlyn]

I'll take the ribs that flip the car over!

[LordKAT]

tofu cake just for the gypsy.

I think you may be on to something. I made a somewhat vague, half assed move on her via text, and she changed the subject. o.O Me being me, I assumed the worst, thinking that now she knows I like her and she's trying to send the message to me that she doesn't like me in that way. She was nice to me in person after that, but didn't give any obvious signs...which, me being me, I took as confirmation that she was put off by me. So I avoided her the entire day, didn't make much eye contact with her, and gave her brief replies when she did speak to me. Very smart.

Like I said, everyone that is a mutual friend of ours thinks something might exist there and they encourage me to go for it. But the years of being in the wrong body have made me really insecure romantically, so any time she is neutral towards me I take it as a bad sign. I also feel...I don't know, I worry she will get the wrong idea. I genuinely like her, she's a smart girl and she commands a lot of my respect, and I'd love to get to know her better. But what if she thinks I just want to get in her pants and that me being nice to her was all a ploy for sex?

It was kind of interesting though. Yesterday she was telling someone a story that involved her, and the person goes "oh yeah, Birkin already told me about that." Her voice like immediately got higher pitched and she says "He did?" As if she were surprised...good surprise or bad surprise, I don't know, ha.

Still mulling over going redhead here.  My wife says it might mess with my makeup scheme and fave wardrobe colors, but that just gives me an excuse to buy more clothes.

I always had a thing for Katharine Hepburn.   She had a great attitude and was perfectly imperfect.

I always had a thing for Spencer Tracey's rendition of Mr. Hyde because I was Mr. Hyde for the first half of my life and played that role rather convincingly especially under the influence of alcohol. Now Jill, let me give you some sisterly advice and listen to what the little woman is saying, she has been a girl all her life and probably is pretty smart and has better insights as your personal advice market person.

If you go a dark rich red and don't go fire engine red.  I've found clothing pretty easy to match. Blacks, purples, some reds, white, creams, beige, blues. Greens are a tough one unless you want to look like a Christmas tree. But yeah it can be a difficult colour to pull off.

Embrace the red side young Jill. We have cupcakes, pizza, beer, and good music

[Devlyn]

Did someone say Cupcake?   

[Jill F]

You had me at pizza and beer. 

[immortal gypsy]

That's why we love you, Gypsy! I have been known to break into song and dance when excited. I also lose my words and can end up doing the "ooo ooo OO!" thing.

Apparently, when I saw the orcas I was so excited I was bouncing and going "ooo ooo" and pointing but I was bouncing so hard it wasn't clear if I was pointing at the water or sky.

Aww that is so adorabubble. Please tell me you where at least a teenager, young adult when it happened.  The older you are the more cute it is in my opinion.

Only those who embrace the red side
Can claim a lovely cupcake
But for you a ryhme I'll let it ride
Are you game or will you flake?

And another one joins our growing army soon we will take over the world. Ba ha ha ha ha

Your rhyming game I do not fear
So you should start to bake,
Buttercream icing you shall shmear
On a red velvet roadkill Cupcake!

So much to get done before tomorrow and so little time to prepare.

[Adam (birkin)]

My brain is so screwed up today. I'd like to claim that I don't know why that is, but I do know why that is. I have other things on it, stressing me out, and it's causing me to screw up at the job. -_- Now I have to make up for it after.

I'm so happy, my friend from elementary school years has moved back to my hometown, and only a 20 minute walk from our place! We became friends back in 1997 in the first grade and she was pretty much my best friend and all. Then after the third grade her family moved to another town and we didn't really see each other after that, only few measily times. But I think we both have missed each other even if we really weren't in contact etc. The last time we saw was probably in 2009 or so, well before my transition so it'll be quite interesting since I'm gonna go visit her tomorrow. She knows about my transition, though, but it's been at least five years!
