Today at breakie , I was sitting with my usual crew including Ruthie ...who I get on very well with....in fact there's some chemistry going on there , she's a good looking , road train driver rides a Harley ....and she likes me quite a bit too,
Anyway I was busy wolfing down my food as I was running late ....the other 3 were in grossed in conversation, then Ruthie stated there's a He/she here not because of her presence but because I think the gossip Mill is in full swing ....so I'm assuming she has only recently arrived ,
I glanced across the mess /dining hall and there was that woman sitting by her self , now normally I absolutely hate the term He/she but coming from her it didn't sound so bad ...it wasn't said with any negative emotion ...just matter of fact.... actually I don't mind the term
>-bleeped-< ....I own that word...anyway there's always someone on the radio complaining about having
>-bleeped-< problems ....sometime I want to chip in and say , " maybe you should try counseling "....or if it's overheating ...ie I got a hot
>-bleeped-< ...it's like "yeah what's her number "
However apart from all that I kinda wondered how R knew or anyone for that matter
I mean she is actually a good looking woman beautiful long red hair , her pretty face framed with red framed glasses....shes tall like me , she reminds me of a woman I saw a few years ago in a different camp before I my own self realisation, she was tall but had blonde hair ...
Anyhow observing that chick sitting there .....I wonder if she has segragated herself..
It's tempting to just rock up there and have brekkie with her ....but maybe she would not like that.....
My observation is that she's appears to prim /proper / just shy and she's ...not a noisy slaggy mole like me
But you can't judge someone unless you've walked a
mile.in their boots.
I've been through hell along time in these places when people thought I was gay ....
I know what it's like to have a group of people turn their backs on you ,to be the subject of sniping remarks over the two way etc etc , back when there were no anti harassment
Law's so it's easy for me to handle any flak I might encounter
I almost said then and there " I am too " but there's a time and place .
Going back to the Dazz moment that was actually an interesting moment....he was almost fatherly or like a brother he put his arm around me and said " come on your a tough guy " it was really nice the way he handled it....but then again it's a work family thing....we spend so much time together out in these remote places that we do become like family....
