All said and done, an evening of 'This way ladies' and 'how are we doing ladies' goes a long way even if it was out of politeness.
Way to go, Faith!  Isn't it great to get gendered correctly, for whatever reason?  A little politeness goes a long way.

Hi Faith and Lori,

  First I admit I was a bit behind on your thread. It happens more now that I have a girlfriend in another state. I read your account of the server/san debacle and I understood it fully having had to deal with similar catastrophes with as high or possibly higher priorities. I had some large national accounts to maintain not to mention those I was asked to fly into to help as tech support. So yes I can commiserate such happenings with you Hun.
  I am also pleased that Lorie suggested you wear the dress and shawl for your impromptu dinner out you two enjoyed. I remember that uncertainty of being in a dress in public, but like my first time, yours was an uneventful evening with proper gendering and I hope a good meal. That is as it should be. I hope you have many more evenings out like this one. As long as no one gets in your face, then it doesn't matter if they look or not. You are who you are Faith, be proud of that. I am proud of you for doing it.

Love & hugs for you and Lori,
  Laurie

-=SQUEEEeeee=-

I accept your reasons, you are excused from having to pay close attention to my life occurrences.

Back to work today. I stopped in to say hi to someone who's been helping me with 'female advice and options and critiques'. I stopped in, she looked at me and said,"You must be cold" ... uh ohh .. umm. Yes cold, typical. I looked down and said," doesn't it just look like I'm extra buff and muscled?". Her answer? "NOPE!" with verbal exclamation marks.

Well, it might just be time to do some compression wrapping :P
I left the door open, only a few came through. such is my life.

Compression wrapping no no no. Those girls just want to have fun. Tray a bra with slight padding or a bralette if you must restrain them. If you do decide to wrap them up then don't make is very tight. You don't want to be uncomfortable.

Hey say hi to Lori for me.

Hugs,

No, she can't. Lori doesn't know anything about computers. I just asked my web guy and he confirmed it for me.

Hi Faith, I'm not sure you will see this message anytime soon. You may be on top of the fridge without ready access to a computer! [emoji12]

On the off chance that you escaped the fridge-top time-out, I'd like to say that I'm glad you were joking about the compression wrapping. Not comfortable! I tried that a few times to help ease my wife into the idea that I now have boobs. I now wear a not so comfortable crop top sports bra to work and when going out in public with my wife. Apart from the physical discomfort, there is also a little mental distress from knowingly hiding who I am. You are passed the stage of needing to hide, so show those girls off! [emoji16]

Hugs,
Jayne

Jayne01, the day is coming when a sports bra will no longer hide them and they will just be there on your chest/

Faith

made it through a typical day at work, migrating some network switches. Tedious but it did make the time go by quick.

My phone buzzed at one point, Lori txt'ed .. a $50+ prescription was ready. I told her it' must be hers, one of hers is pricey.

Sitting at home, Lori comes home for 'lunch' (evening shift today) with the prescriptions .. both for me. An additional 1 1/2 months of estradiol and .. 3 months of spironolactone  :icon_joy:  Of course, I took one with my evening batch. No waiting for a day to start, nuh uhh

test results still aren't showing up on the Quest website. I'll have to call PP and ask them what's up.

 YAY Faith full speed ahead. Damn the torpedoes and all that rot. Jolly good show.

  It is good to see you interacting a bit more with us here. We like having you around. Okay okay I have hopes of conversing with Lori but you are part of that package I guess. Don't let the alligators eat the dogs.
