I'm still stealth, but I looked in the mirror this morning and saw her looking back at me. What a glorious way to start the day!

That's awesome. I'm still waiting for that day. Enjoy floating through the rest of the day
I left the door open, only a few came through. such is my life.

Just got dolled up for my therapy appointment (last of the year with christmas hustle probably), looked in the mirror and realized again that even pre HRT(still waiting on shipment, it's a great time of year to be ordering meds  ;D), I have a shockingly feminine figure (overweight, but still feminine). Though I am hoping I lose some thigh fat still, without male clothes that hang off me weird straightening my profile I have hip curves and stuff! Just a nice little reminder that I'm not a lost cause, because sometimes it's hard to not feel like it. ;D

Would I date Onision I don't think so he is cute but married lol I don't like to share. I did it just to see if I can get a pic on his channel and I did so I was happy just for that. :)

The one co-worker who knows my secret took me out to lunch at a Japanese restaurant. The last time I ate at a Japanese restaurant was...never. The food was good, but my fortune cookie was even better. It said 'An investment in yourself will pay dividends for the rest of your life.'

I went to my interview today.  It was at a place that I had previously interviewed as Steve.  I walked through the door, and the executive director didn't even bat an eye at my make up, or the fact that all but my shoes were female attire.  Also....it wasn't an interview; it was to receive the job offer!  Still got offered the job.....as Claire!


I know you can't see it, but I've got one giant grin going.  No wincing this time either.

I'll answer to both.  I am using Artesia for most of my online forum names now.  You can also find me on tabletop gaming forums as Megatrons2nd or video game forums as ZakuBeta.

Yesterday I reached out to an old friend that had shut me out well over a year ago, he and his wife could not handle the changes in our lives. They stopped by this afternoon to chat a bit...don't know where this may lead but it is bringing tears as I write this.

I've never seen a Japanese place with fortune cookies before, the world as I know it no longer makes sense. ;D
