The Stephanie Chronicles

[steph2.0]

Being Steph  is the same thing, you are just getting used to your wings. Now girl, go out and fly! Own it and love it! And we are all there with you each step of the way.

You're right, of course. When the fecal matter impacts the air distribution device, you fall back on your training. I don't have "Steph" thoroughly ingrained in my psyche yet, but I am making great progress. See the previous entry.

By the way, we can't make it to your court hearing but my partner and I are wondering if you are up for visitors next fall, we are planning an east coast swing.

Oh my gosh, yes! Like most Florida residents, we have a guest room for our friends who are escaping from anything but the law, and you would be most welcome to occupy it! We are in Central Florida, right on I-75, about 50 miles north of Tampa.

The only possibility would be a conflict with a trip we'll be taking ourselves next fall. My neighbor is putting together a girls-only train trip up the east coast to see the colors, and I'm invited! Don't know exactly when yet, but we'll try to coordinate when the time gets closer.

COOL!

Some very cool things have been happening:

My wife finally told her brother and sister about me, and both were shocked but completely supportive, especially when they knew we're staying together and still love each other.

...

Very cool to have more family on board!  No wonder you have such a big smile in your photos.

Sorry I can't make it to your court hearing, but I'll be there in spirit.

Now Jayne, you know she's waiting on your RSVP she said so right in her post. Don't leave the lady hanging.

Oh Laurie, you are so right. How rude of me!

Steph, you know I would be there in a heartbeat if I could. I will be in the gallery in spirit, eating my peanuts cheering you on.

Your friend from Oz,
Jayne

Drat.  Foiled again.

Are we allowed to throw the peanuts, if so I'm on a plane [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

I dunno, but with all those aerial peanuts the smell might get intense. There'd be oder in the court.

Send her down! [emoji23]

I'm losing my peanut gallery qualification due to GRS mid January.  Or did I misunderstand the term selfie stick.

Kendra, you crack me up. Your nuts!

I went for my makeup lesson last night, and I'm not sure I absorbed it all - it was more of a makeover while I tried to keep up. I'm not sure what to make of it yet, but there was no doubt there was a dramatic difference, and when we went to dinner afterward there was no hint of misgendering from anyone, including the waitress who hung out around our table and chatted with us most of the evening. Apparently even my voice passed. It was another one of those magical evenings that I didn't want to end. So I'm taking whatever knowledge I was able to retain, and will build on that.

I'm afraid this was a terrible picture - my friend isn't a professional photographer and I didn't have a chance to fix my hair when she surprised me with her camera. So it is what it is. Maybe you can get an idea about the makeup from it...

Geez Steph! You're rocking it girl! I like your new profile picture too, but you will have to update it again with a new aviator photo of yourself.

Steph, looking at your photo I think there's your answer for court for your name change... you don't need to do anything.  Just show up that way, your hair looks fine, you look great - you could go in front of the Supreme Court that way. 

Skip the wig unless it's cold and snowing outside.

Thank you Kendra. I will definitely be going with just my own hair. I yam what I yam. As for the clothes, my current choices are a gray skirted suit with that pink top in the picture, or a very classy black dress that I modeled today and suddenly look super in.

A dear friend of mine in Nashville has invited me to come and try on a roomful of clothes she's set aside for me. We're heading up there tomorrow. I'm withholding the final decision until I see what she's got for me.

She is so cool that she has warned me that I'd better not show up in any other mode than full-boat Stephanie. I'm happy to accommodate her, and since I'm full-time, will of course be me for the entire trip. So this will be a pico-version of Laurie's trip. Anybody live on the I-75 / I-24 corridor between Florida and Nashville?

Steph and Sue roll North
In search of clothes and flying
Look out Tennessee!

At Cracker Barrel
Meatloaf and mashed potatoes
Don't get that at home.

[steph2.0]

Oh no! No meat loaf!
Steph is very sad tonight
Rather go hungry!
