I sell new and used Honda's. :)

I totally agree, being full time is awesome!

I'm glad things are going so well for you.

Yeah, being full time is an awesome thing.  :D

Just about our whole line up gets great gas mileage. Civic gets roughly 36-40 MPG.. Hybrids get mid 40's

Glad to hear it!  I am so proud of you!

Full time does indeed rock. I wish it was something other than Hondas. I am a car dealers dream client :) I totally love cars, love driving them, love owning them, love customizing them. I have several dealer friends who I can swing by whenever I want
And take a car out for a test drive. I take cars out for test drives all the time :)

I myself, just for me mind you, own 4 cars :) I have a jeep wrangler, dodge challenger, a ram 3500 diesel pickup and a maserati gran sport. I have different cars for different times of the year and moods. I drive the jeep in the summer with the top down and doors off especially to the beach, the challenger when I want to go fast, the truck for every day driving and the Maserati when I want to go somewhere classy :) Until last summer i had an Aston Martin vantage but I sold it, downsizing. That's when I picked up the gran sport. I can be found from time to time at Aston Martin new England in waltham trying to stop myself from spending more on cars :). I will be at the new England auto show next weekend because I just can't stop :)

I am looking for another car this year and might sell the challenger and maybe get a boss 302 or Shelby mustang, maybe even an slk, I can't make my mind up :) she who has the most toys wins just as much as "he" does :) if you come across cars like this at your dealership then please pm me, seriously. I will send you my contact information and we can work out a deal. It wouldn't be the first time I had to have a vehicle shipped. I'd be looking for a newer low mileage Shelby, slk, etc. I figure someone else is going to take the huge depreciation hit just not me.

Congrats Serena! This is exciting news

Serena, I couldn't have put it better. Full time rocks! Congrats on full time, though I know you've been there for awhile. You're very pretty, all the girls are here. I passed sixteen months on January eighth, and since the day I went full time I've wondered why I didn't go full time thirty-five years ago, the first time I started and quit. I never went full time then, stopping short, and wasted thirty-three of those years because I didn't. Paige, it may not be easy at first, not that you'll be clocked, (you won't!) but the first time I was full time and went to the ladies room, I thought to myself, "Everybody knows and I'm going to jail for being in the women's bathroom. I'd been in them when I used to go out dressed, scared to death, but being full time was a little different for me because it was now real life, I made a commitment to myself and my family I'll never go back and I never will. I wouldn't recognize the old me and my friends wouldn't either. I've lost 63 lbs. since I first began hormones, and went full time five weeks after I began them when the opportunity presented itself. I only lost the weight because I'm happy and have 18 months clean and sober. But I don't care how well anyone passes, it's a new and different life. Anyway, good luck and God bless you all. Full time rocks!!!

congratz :D I'm both happy for you and a little envious (but mostly happy ^^ )

Congrats!
Wow Zumbagirl you sound awesome! I love cars as well, I have a VW, im only 20 so I dont quite have a collection yet lol. May I ask what you do for a living? If I dont have a Porsche 911 and G-class in my driveway in my lifetime im going to be awfully dissapointed lol.

Sure thing. I work in senior management in IT in one of the Hartford ct area insurance companies. I know a good 4 more of us in this area who are living quiet lives but doing well financially. I ended up in a better position because my background is in engineering. Specifically I am a mechanical engineer by education. Before that I also worked, quite stealthily, at one of the large defense contractors in CT and even had security clearance. I am absolutely positive that the government knew of at least my name change, probably my gender one too, but it never stopped them from giving me clearance. Then again from what I saw, the government is fighting a losing battle trying to hire talent and there are just not enough engineers and scientists in this country to keep up with technology anymore.

My career took off like crazy after my transition. I think I described this way in another post on here. Before I used to have 20% of my brain thinking about what gender I was and 100% of my free time trying to fix it :) Once I was done, that 20% went down to 0%. I felt like I was set free in the world, like literally nothing could stop me. I started to have a lot of ambition and one of the first places it showed was at work. I had a laser focused mind at work, my productivity was soaring and I had never been happier. Then I got a huge raise, followed by another huge raise, followed by a huge bonus, followed by a promotion and then another promotion. In the past 10 years I have tripled my income. Suddenly, I found myself working with coworkers who owned 911, maseratis, Aston martins, range rovers, etc. I had to keep up what the joneses, so it was time to buy something cool.  I love cars, always have and probably always will.

G-classes are nice. Up near where I live is Smith College in Northampton and there are a lot of women who are driving around in g classes up around the campus. There is an unusually high concentration of g class wagons up here. If you ever saw the transgeneration TV show one of the trans guys was a student a smith, in fact we share the same endo in real life :)

Congratulations Serena - all the best :-) xxxxx
