This smooth, relaxed singing style really sounds weird, like a cross between a lounge singer and a stoned hippie.

I found a website that delivers food (grocery) within the city.

Thank God I live in the age of the internet. It isn't that I am lazy, it's that our transit is terrible, and so crowded, you're lucky if you can carry grocery bags on the trains or bus without it spilling or someone stepping on it.

Uh, i feel so weak. If i fall over in a couple of minutes, i won't be surprised afterwards. I love it. It makes me sleepy and weak, but also euphoric and numb at the same time, probably thanks to it interacting with something else i need. I have passed out from this before.....

Our county paper only comes out three times a week, usually there are 5-10 obits in each one, especially the Sunday edition, but I noticed today that Sunday's paper said "No obituaries" in the box where they were usually initially listed on the front page. Just seemed odd with several nursing homes, mediocre hospital and the criminals we have.

Listen, Learn, Read On (is the title of an awesome song by Deep Purple. It opens the album "The Book Of Taliesyn and invokes images of some weird cult in my mind)

In ages past when spells were cast
In a time of men in steel
When a man was taught no special thing
It was all done by feel

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

Hear the song of lovely Joan
Her sound so sweet and clear
In the courtroom of the King
Among children and the peers

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

     "Now hear ye the words of Taliesyn,
      on the foaming beach of the ocean,
      in the day of trouble,
      I shall be of more service to thee
      than three hundred salmon..."

The hare he bounds across the page
Past castles white and fair
Past dreaming chessmen on their boards
With a fool's mate as a snare

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

     "Three times I have been born
      I know this from meditation..."

The bird he flies the distance
From pages two to six
Past minstrels in their boxes
To the waters of the Styx

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

Don't take the pictures lightly
Listen to their sound
For from their coloured feeling
Experience is found

So listen, so learn, so read on
You gotta turn the page, read the Book of Taliesyn

     "All the sciences of the world are collected in my breast,
      for I  know  what  has  been,  what is  now,
      and  what  hereafter  will occur..."

There's an evil prince sitting in the corner of my room eating a still steaming pig. He showed me his wood carvings earlier and i must say, his carving style is well-rehearsed. I told him so and he stood up and shouted like the deranged wild-man fischer wannabe he is: "ALL MEN BE CURSED! ALL MEN BE CURSED!" And on my bed lies a sinister little midget with a bucket and a mop, right next to where the blood goes down the drain. Who are they? Are they crazy? Are they sainted? Are they zeros someone painted? And it is stinking so bad in my room, the stones outside are chokin and weeping greenish drops. The flies are all green and buzzing too in my dungeon of despair. And there is slime and rot and rats and snot and vomit on my floor and there are fifty ugly soldiers holding spears by my cupboard door.

Sometimes I can't tell if I am crazy/delusional or not. . . Like, I swear I turned off my laptop when I left for work this morning, then I come home and it's on and I can't log in by my super easy password and the hint says "Ask X, he might know" even though I swear my hint was just my password. So, I ask X and he's all like "IDK what you're talking about", then poof, mysteriously I am able to log in. I asked if he remotely changed it on me, and he basically says I am nuts. I've since disabled any remote access settings on my laptop, or at least I hope I did, but he swears he didn't download anything on my computer.
Crazy? ? ?

First I thought something was wrong with my computer lol.


I'm thinking about Sunday where I told my sister and her cousin "jokingly" that I need to see a "psychiatrist" and that I actually have one in mind.  My sister asks who and I told her that's not for her to know, she goes "I'll find out" and I told her "I'd like to see you try." 

Even though I brought it up to them as a "joke" (when in reality, there is some truth in it), the way my sister said "I'll find out" kind of concerned me.  She knows I'm trans and I'm sure she knows something is up but it makes me think if she would go as to try and stop me from doing what I need to do.  I doubt it since she told me that I'm an adult but still.... She may be concerned with her image in my church and I know when the church members start seeing me with a flat chest they will ask her why I did that.

Too lazy to add to this

My endo gave me the name and phone number of a psychologist he wants me to see to confirm I'm trans. I called yesterday and was told that she wasn't seeing new patients, but that the secretary would talk to her and get back to me this morning. I haven't heard back yet. I'll wait a day and then call again. I'd most likely just see her once unless she wants to draw it out.

Don Preston, synthesizer pioneer and all-around weirdo. Over 80 years old and still on-stage, even playing iPod keyboard solos at the "Grandmothers of Invention" concerts.

Don Preston solo - playing with iPod (4.2.2012) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FSiq-YiglxQ#)

Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention - King Kong (1968 at BBC) 1/3 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HIk7VnVwBNo&list=PLA2DE5921D913F3DF#)

Tom Fowler - bass (actual Mothers member)
Don Preston (aka Dom DeWild)- keyboard (actual Mothers member)
Napoleon Murphy Brock - vocals  (actual Mothers member)
Robbie "Seahag" Mangano - guitar
Chris Garcia - drums

They're really great. A shame i couldn't go to their concert near my home last year. One of the best Zappa tribute acts, 3 out of 5 members having played with him.

Wondering if I could somehow block people from seeing my youtube feed, kind of made the mistake of messaging a real life friend, and then I saw my feed full of MTF videos and stuff... kind of weird now since just to see if he actually checks his youtube, I told him I'm gay(I'm actually straight... or maybe I am asexual?).. I don't think he is going to reply now.

Also wondering what instrument I should learn next, guess violin and guitar aren't enough for me. Maybe ukulele or bass guitar.. or piano, harmonica.. or just learn them all at some point...

Wow.. already bored and I just finished school for 2 weeks :o

By the way, I always am thinking of multiple things at once, sometimes I even think of really weird things that freak me out, like wondering what it would be like to jump out of a car, or think about just telling everyone about this whole trans thing.. even though that would hurt me in the future.

I shall stop now, before I make people go insane :) *pictures self as that one weird crazy girl from Firefly*

Eh, ended up just keeping it as it is, sure some of my extended family has already seen my youtube, and I decided I don't have anything to hide :) People will find out eventually, guess this could make it sort of easier since I will never be brave enough to tell people face to face, because then I have to see their expressions as I tell them :(

I came dancing across the water
with my synthie and guitar
Looking for a new sound
In the land of the rising sun

On the shore lay Nagasaki,
with its cherry trees and herbs
And the people often asked me,
what are you doing here

And the women all look beautiful,
and the men stay tall and strong,
And they sacrificed their J-pop,
so that music could go on

Pro-tools was just a legend,
auto-tune was never known,
and the people helped each other,
and they loved the Rolling Stones

And I know I don't want to live there,
but i love it more everyday,
and i still can't remember when,
or where i lost my way

I came dancing across the water,
rip-off, rip-off
that sounds killer!

I'm so sorry, Mr.Neil Young

Man, I keep getting obsessed with fictional characters who remind myself of and/or who I want to emulate. This time, it's a random character from Holes which is also a little embarrassing since it is a kids' book. I really want it to be time I like my own life instead of living vicariously through fictional characters. Why do I feel blocked from doing so?

:O I do the same sometimes, except I picture myself as the weird crazy girl from firefly, since I am kind of like that.. Only I don't think I am crazy, or I could be if you ask some people. I rarely talk, but when I do.. I wonder how many people understand me.. or even hear it, since they almost always ask me to repeat it.

Anyways, I am no longer worried about how people will react when/if I tell them I am trans, but kind of upset since I can't think of a way to get rid of this "friend" now, except for maybe pretend to be checking him out(think he misunderstood me), or just ignoring him.

One of my friends just told me that he just assumed I was a guy (with the parts) right from the get go and, recently, another friend told me that a guy she knows automatically assumed I was a guy (with the parts) too.

When i first saw you,
i did adore you,
and all your loving ways,
but then you went away,
but now you're back to stay,
and my love for you grows stronger every day

the closer you are,
the brighter the stars in the sky,
and darling i realize,
we'll always be in love

my heart skips a beat,
every time you and i meet,
my life, my love, my dear,
i can't defeat,
this yearning deep in my heart

Pure schmaltz as coming out of a rancid, dusty late 50's jukebox

I visited my aunt and her husband today. It's actually kinda awful and embarrassing to think I've been there last two years ago... But my sort of an excuse was my transition process about to start back then. I guess I just didn't have the mental energy to deal with relatives or something. *shrug*
My aunt stuffed a pile of food in a plastic bag for me to take home, including home made lasagne. ouo Gotta eat that later...

I also started doodling my older characters, some dating all the way back to 2009. I just mostly wanted to see how they look in my current drawing style but now I really wanna do some real artwork of one couple. Considering one of them is my all-time favorite of my own characters, I've neglected them badly over the years.
MUST CORRECT THIS.

Aaaand I also had way too much fun with blueberries today. (http://lordlauri.tumblr.com/post/56541521922/alright-here-goes-mmmmmmppppfffffh-so-much)

I wish my father would put up or shut up.  He's always making little comments about how I should have went into the medical field instead of criminal justice and he tells me it's not too late.  When he goes into the medical field, so will I, but I know he won't.  It seems like I can never please my parents.

Every time I hear a certain word around here, it starts a chain of thoughts which begin with the movie Firefox, starring Clint Eastwood.

And then this:

(https://www.susans.org/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.shadetreecarshow.com%2Fimages%2FSR-71A_04.jpg&hash=a6ddd8be2540082123aaf6f78439decb141da64d)

Which finally leads to the movie Broken Arrow starring John Travolta and Christian Slater, and how Christian Slater is pretty cute. But so is Samantha Mathis.

I can't help it, it all just pops into my head. ;D

"Gotham's Reckoning... is a good metal band." For some reason, I started thinking about "Superhero Speed Dating" and "Supervillain Speed Dating." Those are pretty funny.
Before that, I was remembering being homeless and how, at the time, I remembered hearing people talk about "rock bottom." My conclusion was that there is no bottom and, if there was, it wasn't rock and there was more underneath. No matter how bad I thought it was, it could (and sometimes did) get worse. But at the same time, I also found out that, as long as I was alive, I would find a way to pull myself up. Sorry if that sounds preachy or cheesy or something. I'm just being nostalgic. Also, I've been feeling stuck lately and it's put me in a funk, so I need to remind myself that I won't be here forever.

I try this tactic sometimes, and it can work sitting alone with no one else around. It is even comforting. But then I realize it is not true, that life is unbelievably richer when you share something with someone else. I think about dying alone, or what 40 years in the future will be like without sharing it with anyone.

It's kind of like what that old white dead dude said "If you hang yourself, you'll regret it. If you don't hang yourself, you'll still regret it". . . what's his name. . . When you're with someone, you think about how much better it'll be on your own, and when you're alone you feel lonely and want someone. That's how it is with me sometimes, though I typically prefer being alone, I like the freedom. It's just nice to have someone to go to dinner with or out to the movies once in awhile.

Edit it add:

"Marry, and you will regret it; don't marry, you will also regret it; marry or don't marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world's foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world's foolishness or weep over it, you will regret it either way; laugh at the world's foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it; believe a woman or believe her not, you will regret it either way; believing a woman or not believing her, you will regret it both ways. Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don't hang yourself, you'll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy."

That's a good Kierkegaard quote I appreciate you posting. I am pretty sure he lived his entire life alone writing under various pseudonyms after breaking off an engagement that influenced the rest of his life and his writing.

Kierkegaard makes me think of Hegel, who he hated and critiqued in a lot of his work. Hegel established his basic philosophy around the fact that we can only understand who we are through the contrast of our internal consciousness to the external presence of others. He ran with it in a different direction that I don't associate with, but I always interpreted this and related to it as we need other people to know ourselves. Being alone is stagnating.

I am thinking about more job applications. I am scared for the moment when I actually get a call back, and...well, I don't look 24 so what if people just think I am a woman? I'm really scared to have to correct them at an interview and then have them realize "ohhhh it's a transgender." -_-

My father says I'm selling junk online.  I agree.

He's concerned that me selling crappy items raises a red flag because as he puts it "why would anyone go so far to buy junk?"  he wants me to sell higher quality things.

I've heard of people being shot and killed on Craigslist trying to sell their ipad/gold/jewrely but I've never heard of anyone being murdered on Craigslist trying to sell broken toys with missing parts and batteries or a poster with a broken frame.

I agree to be careful regardless, but my father thinks just because he's older that I am wrong in everything. 

I'd be a little more concerned trying to sell the high quality goods than things that the Goodwill would not even take.

It really is kinda sick to shave your kid's head as punishment but I got over it, he's done much worse things. :P But I did get the sense she thinks it made me trans.

Darn I wish I could of brought that speech.

My mom gave both my sister and me $20 for graduating.   I joked with my mom and told her i was going to spend it on alcohol to celebrate but she said no it neds to go with my other stash of money to collect dust.  I think I will put it in my top surgery fund since it was somewhat unexpected.  Idk though.

B isn't heavy, but he is absurdly fast. And absolutely fearless. I took him to the mountains last month and couldn't take my eyes off him for a second. Literally, one second of lapsed attention and he'd be ten feet above me, scaling a boulder or up the embankment.

Just hinted to my sisters that I plan on having top surgery.  They chastized me for coming to my sister's get together with no bra on and my sister started grabbing at my breast telling me how jiggly they were and I told her enjoy them while you can and she asked "why are you planning on cutting them off and getting a transformation?".

I still can't believe I hinted that to them.  That will probably be the last time I do that, as my transition does not concern them.  At this point, the only person I need to concern myself with is my mother, considering I live with her and heck if she doesn't approve, I'm out if I can't get it done under her roof.

At any rate, I'm just starting to care less about wearing a bra out in public.  My sister said our sister's father will be there and her husband.  I honestly don't care.  It's not my problem.  Why should I have to wear a bra?  Now when I go to important stuff that's different, but still.  I really cannot wait to get top surgery so I won't have to deal with this bra nonsense.

Just hinted to my sisters that I plan on having top surgery.  They chastized me for coming to my sister's get together with no bra on and my sister started grabbing at my breast telling me how jiggly they were and I told her enjoy them while you can and she asked "why are you planning on cutting them off and getting a transformation?".

I still can't believe I hinted that to them.  That will probably be the last time I do that, as my transition does not concern them.  At this point, the only person I need to concern myself with is my mother, considering I live with her and heck if she doesn't approve, I'm out if I can't get it done under her roof.

At any rate, I'm just starting to care less about wearing a bra out in public.  My sister said our sister's father will be there and her husband.  I honestly don't care.  It's not my problem.  Why should I have to wear a bra?  Now when I go to important stuff that's different, but still.  I really cannot wait to get top surgery so I won't have to deal with this bra nonsense.

Oh man, I am so sorry they did that to you! Some people have no concept of boundaries or appropriateness. That's actually disgusting.

I'm thinking that I'm getting really pissed off with my brother. I helped him with his homework in exchange for his help with stuff, and he keeps putting it off or doing piss poor work. I also took my Xbox headphones back from him, and he's taken them back, without asking, and he's yelling at his stupid little friends in them while I'm trying to nap.

Neither a lender or a borrower be.

Unfortunately, I never had that experience.

My early childhood was pretty gender fluid. I had long, flowing hair, an undifferentiated family collection of costume clothes and toys, and habitually wore nail polish.

There's also an infamous home movie of me from about age four where I'm explain and demonstrate how I breastfeed my doll while the adults laugh their asses off.

Things changed at around age six or seven when the door got slammed hard on my gender non-conformity.

I'm bummed out over what happened last night with Caleb. He was hurting pretty badly from the visit with his neighbor. I havent seen him this sad in a very long time. I wish I could give him a big, squishy hug and tell him it will get better. I hate that all I can do is listen. And I want to give his brother a swift kick to the groin for being the douche bag he is becoming.

Today I was grilling burgers when some jackass in a pickup drove by yelling "freak" at me. he was probably just pissed because a chick can use a grill better than his sorry butt.

I wish I had a house already. :3 I've lately had an obsession with keeping pet fish. I really wanna build a big fish pond in either my backyard or frontyard (leaning towards frontyard). I wouldn't have an aquarium though, I think they're cruel unless they're one of those really big, restuarant aquariums that can't fit in your house. But having my own fish pond would be fracking awesome. ^.^

I am sick as crap of going into a liberal place like uni and getting misgendered left, right, and centre. These are the people who have education and exposure to difference, but they handle it the worst. They're all "SHE....UHHH heeee ummm whatever soooooorry haha I know lots of trans people so I know it's important!" Funny, I can go to conservative places and not get misgendered once, but the supposed enlightened liberals can't get it right for whatever reason and somehow can "spot" me.

Well I am about ready to punch someone in the face. Yeah, you know what, if I still wasn't passing, I'd get it. I looked like a girl before hormones and well into them, I won't ever deny that. But when I have a male TSA officer pat down my boobs and not flinch, when I get "sir", "buddy," "young lad", "man" EVERYWHERE I go, I'm starting to smell some serious BS. You know so many trans people? You're soooo open-minded? THEN YOU'D THINK YOU'D GET IT RIGHT!!! Sometimes I think being open-minded just leaves room for it all to fall out.

Last night I felt dysphoric, thinking "of course they spotted me, I look like a woman." But no. That's dysphoria talking. I DO NOT look like a woman anymore. I do not sound like a woman. I look like a teenage boy. My own FAMILY doesn't recognize my voice and thinks I am my teenage brother on the phone (not the gay one lol). Family who have known me my whole life. So, yeah, no. Anyone who thinks a woman would look like me is looking too hard. There is no reason to even have the word "she" register in your head anymore.

I am really really angry about this. I am past the point of being seen as a lesbian, anyone that deducts that I was female-born now assumes I am trans. And if they can spot that, they know enough about trans people to not screw up my pronouns. Seriously. But no. They're thinking "ohhhh this is a trans person, a female born, but now male! Gasp! How fascinating! Lived as a woman! So it was a girl that now wants to be a guy.......wonder what that's like......" Sometimes I think, I'm an academic fascination instead of someone who is actually accepted for who they are.

Just sick of it and ready to bust some heads.

I was silent for a moment and said, "No... But he is in Muncie for a few days." I felt awkward as heck answering that one.

Learning German is slow going, I am impatient, and I am worried about how horrible my pronunciation is, but I've already gotten to the point where I want to think, speak, and write in german after my studying.
Also, I want to learn Swedish and Norwegian. It was going to be just Norwegian, but the more I hear people speak in Swedish, the more I want to learn it.
Ever have those languages where you feel you should be able to speak and understand them even though you don't?

RE 6 has went down to about $17 here but it's the type of game that I know I wouldn't be good at, but I played the demo and the storyline is just so interesting, especially how they have all of the seperate campaigns.  The Ada campaign kind of came as a shock to me since it was kept very hidden.  Nevertheless, I'm more interested to see it now that she's getting on my nerves in the Chris and Pier's campaign.  She has some explaining to do.



I'm thinking about taking a driving class in order to help get my license.  The cost is about $260.  My sister said if I go and pass that course (and get my license I assume) , then she will give me $50 of that back.  Meh I hate driving with a passion but if I want this dispatching job, I have to have a license.

1. Jake and Sherry (I'm a fanboy over that campaign now)

2. Chris and Piers (It was alright.)

3.  Leon and Helena (Snorefest)

It will be interesting to see how Ada's campaign ranks.  It's not looking too good so far but to be fair, I've only watched the first hour and a lot of the boring stuff happens in that first hour....unless you're in Jake and Sherry's campaign, which in that case, there's rarely a dull moment because even if nothing is going on, I at least get to see Jake run around with his sexy body.  I totally have a man crush on him now....on both him and Rex Power Colt....Cyborg Commando!

I'm talking from a playing perspective, and I haven't played Ada's campaign yet, but this is my ranking:
1. Jake and Sherry. A close tie with Leon and Helena but I really liked the snowmobile, the storyline, the variety, settings, etc.
2. Leon and Helena's was good because I felt it kind of stayed true to the whole "Resident Evil" feel if you catch my drift. Some parts were boring. But I really enjoyed the first and second chapter, with the accidents, finding Deborah, etc. It kind of got me thinking. Would you let innocent people die to move forward to save your sister faster, or would you stop to help on the way?
3. Chris and Piers is definitely the one I like least. I found it repetitive and Piers is annoying as hell. When he died I was very happy. What's worse is I had to be Piers and Keaira was Chris.

Keaira played co-op with me on all of them so I asked her for her rankings lol:

1. Leon and Helena
2. Chris and Piers
3. Jake and Sherry

Now I like anything to do with Ada (and dat ass lol), but I have to play it first. Keaira and I are finishing RE5 and she said she may play Ada's campaign with me. It's more fun with another person.

1. Leon and Helena
2. Chris and Piers
3. Jake and Sherry

Now I like anything to do with Ada (and dat ass lol), but I have to play it first. Keaira and I are finishing RE5 and she said she may play Ada's campaign with me. It's more fun with another person.

Even though I have never played a Resident Evil game and only saw the first four movies, I could kind of tell that Leon and Helana's kind of had that "standard-issue" zombie feel to it, for lack of better words which is probably one of the reasons I got so bored watching it.  That campaign also irritated me.  Here's what I posted about it in my blog about a week back:

Quote from: Malachite on July 27, 2013, 01:57:27 PM
I love Ada Wong from what I've seen of her.  She's like the female version of Duke Nukem.  As I started watching more of Leon and Helena's storyline, it started to get interesting.  I think it was boring in the beginning because of Helena stringing Leon along.

"I'll tell you everything when we get to the Cathedral"

*goes to the Cathedral*

"I'll tell you everything when we find Deborah"

*finds Deborah*

"I'll tell you everything when we get Deborah out of here."

*gets Deborah out*

Then eventually Ada comes in

"Ada....what's going on?"

"It's complicated"

Me: ......... I'm done LOL!

Speaking of Ada, I just got done watching the Ada campaign and it was really good.  Every time she used that swinging thingy I kept saying to myself "Ada Wong" in a "cool" voice.  She makes every single thing sound important in a nonchalant way   8)  Now that I finished her story I can give a complete ranking of my favorite campaign.

1. Jake and Sherry- Definately the best story for  that was full of action and a hint of romance

2. Ada Wong

3. Chris and Piers

4. Leon and Helena


The Chris and Piers campaign was a tad but of a let down (which surprised me since that was my favorite campaign in the demo).  There wasn't many memorable moments in that campaign other than the beginning, their interaction with Jake and Ada, and the Pier's final moments.  Heck, even with that, Piers was very annoying and didn't know his place.  The ending was so dull that I honestly cared more about the steak that Chris left behind.


I do admit that Ada Wong has a nice butt.  I enjoyed seeing her climb ladders.  Even Leon had a nice wide booty.  I don't even want to get started on Sherry Birkin's behind but that girl has a butt.

I've been working on a roleplay scenario with the help of my Polish online friend and I have a feeling it's getting way too complicated and detailed to be just a roleplay concept. @_@
And it's filled with stuff I'm not that familiar with... Except for the demonish stuff.

I have also come to the conclusion that I must bite my tongue badly, REALLY badly, to be able to pronounce Polish so it sounds at least somewhat correct.
And the language looks like someone just smashed the keyboard with their head...
And both of those are completely on no offense. That Polish friend of mine is a great guy and all, and I am interested in different languages. You can just imagine how weird a Slavic language sounds and looks like to a Finn. The only difficult thing about Finnish is the grammar, not the pronounciation.
And that Polish friend of mine did say Finnish sounds like Spanish to him...

I think Ada is out of everyone's league. :P Lmao.

Motherly for Helena...hmm. I kind of see what you mean. She comes across as very mature, very serious, it's hard to believe she is only 23. Lol I am talking about her as though she is real. At first when you said motherly, I felt creepy about finding her so attractive, but then...I do tend to find those kinds of qualities attractive in a woman.

All this makes me want to get all the RE games, and play then chronologically. But...cash and I don't have the game systems for all the RE's. I've done 4, halfway through 5, nearly done 6 (except Ada), and I got bored of Revelations. I also have Code Veronica sitting on my xbox, untouched.

I am honestly surprised that there isn't some super bundle for RE by now with nearly every RE game that can be palyed on Xbox/PS3.  I know there's the Legacy Bundle for PS3 but that's like only 3 games.  Part of me wouldn't put it past Capcom to make one in the future, considering how they like to capitalize on their products.

Love Marantz. Just fantastic, that amp, really fantastic sound, no wonder every other amp i've heard in my vicinity (even my brother's Teufel system, which he insists is better) pales in comparison. I love that warm sound it brings to the table.


Goot a pair of big wooden speakers too, hooked up to it.

She lives in Mojave in a Winnebago
His name is Bobby, he looks like a potato

She's in love with a boy
From the rodeo
Who pulls the rope on the chute
When they let those suckers go
(Yeah-hey! Suckers!)

He got slobberin' drunk at the Palomino
They give him thirty days in San Ber'dino

Well there's forty-four men
Stashed away in Tank "C"
An' there's only one shower
But it don't apply to Bobby

You might think they're
Dumb an' lonely
But you're wrong
'Cause their love is strong
Stacked-up hair
An' a cheap little ring
They don't care
'Cause it don't mean a thing

Looka there . . .
They don't care

Best-est way that
They can feel-o
Out on the highway
Rollin' a wheel-o
He's her Tootsie
She's for real-o
Trailer park heaven
It's a real good deal-o

Remember belting this one out about half a year ago. Made quite a show out of that song (posing and such) and really freaked myself out at the end of the song with the "Oh Bobby, i'm so sorry you got a head like a potato, i really am!"

I made the mistake of letting my nephew use my "real" controller to actually play the PS3 or as we call it the "master controller".  When he was mashing it so hard that the rubber grip for my analog stick fell off I told him that was it.  His eyes turn red and I asked him "are you crying?" and he huffed a few times telling me "don't say that".  I wasn't going to tolerate that crap so I told him if he doesn't stop crying then he's not going to be playing at all.  Lol poor boy tried to wipe his tears away as soon as he could.  When I asked him why was he crying he was still getting choked up and I told him to breath in and out.  He was upset because I wouldn't give him one more chance (which he had like 10 other "one more chances").  He's figured out that the PS2 controller I give him doesn't work for my PS3 lol.  I think we have to come to a compromise.  I'll let him play Hatsune Miku demo with my PS3 controller but he has to "play" with the PS2 controller when we play Little Big Planet since the controls are too difficult for him.

Take a hold now if you can
Take a lesson from a hard lovin' man
I'm a long way from where I wanna go
Guess I'll stay awhile I really love you so
How's about another sip of all the wine you got
Take a tip from me and give it here I'll drink the lot
I'm not a winey, I'm a puttin' on a show
Ahhhh, no no no!

You really really grab me but I've gotta move
Before they know I'm here and spread the news
Maybe in while when I've moved around
I can find a way to pay you back your twenty pounds
Really got a lot of lovin' that I wanna give

There's a nation you can buy
(I'll take two)
There's a doll that looks like mommy
She'll do anything but cry
(I seen her)
There's a doll that looks like daddy
He's a funny little man
Push a button & ask for money
There's a dollar in his hand
(Check his wallet)

We gotta send Santa Claus back to the Rescue Mission
Christmas don't make it no more
Don't you know that murder & destruction
Scream the toys in every store
(Think this'll sell in New York?)

There's a man who runs the country
There's a man who tried to think
And they're all made out of plastic
When they melt they start to stink
There's a book with smiling children
Nearly dead with Christmas joy!
And smiling in his office
Is the creep who makes the toys . . .

One very fascinating piece of Zappa history is the song "Let's Move To Cleveland". It was (according to Zappa himself at least) written 1968 as a chamber orchestra piece. It most likely wasn't performed live until 1975, where it was performed in a very weird uptempo arrangement. After 1976 it disappeared until 1980, where it was probably only played once (in Berkeley). It finally became part of Zappa's regular repertoire on the 1982 tour, sounding radically different and rather heavy, including Zappa and Steve Vai trading solos. In 1984 it became a solo vehicle for the whole band and the closing vocals differed from night to night. Eventually the band settled on "Let's Move To Cleveland", because of the nice audience at their show there that year. Here are a few alternate titles for the song:

I recorded something and reached the limits of my voice both in the lower registers and the upper registers. Surprisingly, there's only one really bad voice crack.

Bringing in the sheaves
Bringing in the sheaves
We will come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
Whoa!

L.A. in the summer of '69
I went downtown and bought some wine
I wasted my head on three quarts of juice
And now the grapes won't cut me loose
'Cause I'm a wino man
Wino man
WINO MAN

36, 24, hips about 30
(36, 24, hips about 30)
Seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty
(Seen a fine lady and I started talkin' dirty)
She looked at me and raised her thumb
(Thumb, yeah)
And said: "Jam down the road, you funky-ass bum"
(Jam it down, jam it down, funky-ass bum,
That's no way to talk to a lady!)
'Cause you're a wino man
Don't you know I am?
WINO MAN

I, I went to the country
And while I was gone
A roller-headed lady
Caught me weedling on her lawn
I am so ashamed, 'cause I'm a wino man
And I can't help myself
HELP ME SOMEBODY!

I'm a wino man
Wino man
Oh lord!
WINO MAN

My guitar playing
And my wino career are in a slump
'Cause I find myself now living
In a cardboard refrigerator box down by the Houston dump
And, oh my God, I'm so ashamed of myself
(So ashamed of myself)
Everytime I get . . . WHOOAAAH!

I've been drinkin' all night and my eyes are gettin' red
Well, I crashed in the gutter, got bugs in my head
Bugs in my coat, been scratchin' like a dog
I can't stand water, and I stink like a hog
Give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks
And a hot meal
Give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks
And a hot meal
Give me fi-i-i-i-i-ive bucks

I don't believe in wasting food and throwing it away if I can help it.  I throw all leftover food outside for the critters to eat, even though my mom hates it when I do that but hey, what good it is doing in the trashcan?  It's just taking extra space in there and stinking it up.  At least if I throw it outside something gets fed. I have thrown all kinds of food out there....even half a birthday cake and it got eaten.  I threw a cupcake out there yesterday and later that night a cat was eating it.  The previous day I threw the bottom of some burnt pizza out there and it's all gone.  I throw bones out there and they are gone.   I threw a whole bag of lettuce out there and that stayed for weeks lol but snails and ants and other bugs were eventually starting to eat it.  Heck why let food go to waste?

This is not funny. I used to find it funny, but i no longer can. I have matured a bit. I don't have a problem with Zappa's immature chauvinistic lyrics, at least not always, it depends on the song. But this is just nasty and all kinds of offensive.

I want a nasty little Jewish Princess
(La-la-la)
With long phony nails and a hairdo that rinses
(Wee-oo-oo)
A horny little Jewish Princess
With a garlic aroma that could level Tacoma
(FA!)
Lonely inside
Well, she can swallow my pride

I need a hairy little Jewish Princess
(La-la-la)
With a brand new nose
(Oo-ee-oo)
Who knows where it goes
I want a steamy little Jewish Princess
(KSSS!)
With over-worked gums, who squeaks when she cums
I don't want no troll
I just want a Yemenite hole

I want a darling little Jewish Princess
(La-la-la)
Who don't know ->-bleeped-<- about cooking and is arrogant looking
(Woo-eee-ooo)
A vicious little Jewish Princess
To specifically happen with a pee-pee that's snappin'
All up inside
I just want a Princess to ride

Awright, back to the top . . .
(Hi-Yo, Silver! Away!)
Everybody twist!

I want a funky little Jewish Princess
(La-la-la)
A grinder; a bumper, with a pre-moistened dumper
A brazen little Jewish Princess
(HI-YO!)
With titanic tits
(WHOAH!)
And sand-blasted zits
She can even be poor
So long as she does it with four on the floor
(Vapor-lock)

I want a dainty little Jewish Princess
(La-la-la)
With a couple of sisters who can raise a few blisters
A fragile little Jewish Princess
(HI-YO!)
With Roumanian thighs, who weasels 'n lies
For two or three nights
Won't someone send me a princess who bites
Won't someone send me a princess who bites
Won't someone send me a princess who bites
Won't someone send me a princess who bites

I was just thinking about december 2011 when Azmaria and Jannie came to visit. We had a great time together. Jannie used to tell me that when I transitioned I was going to be the hottie of the group, lol. And we would always look out for one another. She was ever the optemist and even when talking about the low points in her life, she spoke with a smile on her face and never stopped wanting to help others. Azzie was kind of shy and quiet that time. But OMG, is that ever just a cover for who she really is, lol. Anyway, that night we went to see "The girl with the dragon tattoo". Azzie and I still joke that it is my movie, because I have a dragon tattoo. The next day, Azzie took photos of us together and secretly filmed us as we talked.
Azzie went back home to Missouri and Jannie left for home in Michigan. We never expected that those pictures would be the the last ever taken of Jannie before she died. Those pictures are so bittersweet anymore. *sigh*

Yeah, I have to agree. When I read the first part I thought "DIARRHEA! definitely." Because it hurts, yeah, but at least you get it out of you, you know? Whereas with constipation, you are stuck.

I got diarrhea in public once though. In Sears. -_- Thankfully I made it to the bathroom in time to let it rip, but holding it while finding the toilet was horrible and hurt so bad.

That's why I would rather have constipation.  Those constipation cramps hurt much more but at least I know ain't nothing going to slip out accidently.  With diarrhea if you are at those final moments where you can't hold it anymore and the door is about to be opened and there's no toilet around or one that you can reach quickly...

I agree. You know some critter is going to munch it eventually. Props for feeding the critters, yo!

Thanks!  When I first started throwing food outside, it was because I was interested in seeing how long it would take for it to decompose.  I throw some food outside to moniter it and by the next day it was gone and I couldn't understand what happened to it until I threw some more food out there and eventually saw a critter eating on it.  My first thought: Awesome!

My dad does the same thing out at his house. He's always got skunks, rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks, etc coming around. LOL But no porcupines, though. :D

It's like his backyard is the local "critter cafe".

Wow I wish I had a variety of animals.  My yard just contains cats, squirrels (haven't seen them eating anything of mine though) and the occasional opossem.  I do admit I love to feed the oppsossum the most.  It's so cute to watch a small oppossum eat and look at you.

That's cute. That reminds me of one time years ago, my dad and I were hanging out in the garage late at night. It was like 2 or 3 in the morning and it was common back then to see entire groups of skunks trailing through the yard during that time of night. We were sitting in the very back of the garage with the door open and this whole group of skunks came through: a couple of parents and 5 tiny skunks. Once they went past us, one of the oldest skunks came running up to the edge of the floor, stared at us for several seconds and then took off.

It was pretty amusing.

I'm surprised yall didn't get sprayed.



I'm thinking about video games and how I'm glad the video game section exists now.  I remember beforehand I was shocked that there wasn't a section for gamers.  I feel like I'm a party of history.

Actually, it is much easier to avoid being sprayed than people think. The problem is when most people see a skunk they freak out, so the skunk gets startled, feels threatened and defends itself via the spraying. I have walked past a LOT of skunks and have never been sprayed. You just leave it alone and they will leave you alone.

All the confusing feelings, they are weird, uncomfortable, restless, contradictory...........

I'm losing time and my mind
Why can't I ever have what's naturally mine?
I got life and the things that go with it
If there's something else, where can i get it?
Lying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh man won't do it, but the devil will

Well here's my views, I always lose
Things I want to do are yesterday's news
Say life's a ball, I've had it all
Out there in another dance hall
Lying there waiting, waiting for the kill
Oh man won't do it, but the devil will

Take me as I am, an excuse for a man
Wherever I push someone stops my hand
As a matter of interest, tell me if you will
Why didn't Rosemary ever take the pill?
Lying there waiting, waiting for the kill

I just want to scream. As loud as i can. I'm on the tail end of a major depression-related mood swing, my gender issues are back and i forgot my depression meds and i don't know what to do with my life (become part of the corporate machine, brrrrrr...., just another worker drone.......), whatever happened to old me, that's right, old me died in January 2013 and was on life-support since January 2012 and in a bad condition before that.........................

The sky is red, I don't understand,
past midnight I still see the land.
People are sayin' the woman is damned,
she makes you burn with a wave of her hand.
The city's a blaze, the town's on fire.
The woman's flames are reaching higher.
We were fools, we called her liar.
All I hear is "Burn!"

I didn't believe she was devil's sperm.
She said, "Curse you all, you'll never learn!
When I leave there's no return."
The people laughed till she said, "Burn!"
Warning came, no one cared.
Earth was shakin', we stood and stared.
When it came no one was spared.
Still I hear "Burn!"

You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.

You know we had no time,
we could not even try.
You know we had no time.

The sky is red, I don't understand,

Congratulations ;D
I second that.

I'm thinking about power. (What else is new?) I'm thinking of how to increase my knowledge and intelligence, how to increase my physical abilities, and how my plans for this may take several years. *sigh* Oh well.
I am also thinking of something my friend said. He's going through a rough time and he told me he would rather go through a rough time than risk change (even though that change is more likely to help him get better). I expressed confusion over why one would make such a choice, he asked if I ever felt something was pointless, I told him yes but I fight anyway, he said not everyone has it in them, and I asked what is it that I have that he doesn't. He replied that I have a stronger will. ... I always thought that was something one chooses to have and that everyone has the potential to have. Oops. Now I'm really confused. I don't know what to think.
I am also thinking of a quote I saw: "You think it's a weakness? Make it a strength. It's part of you, so use it." I'm wondering how I can turn not getting along with people into a strength.

Mister America
Walk on by
Your schools that do not teach
Mister America
Walk on by
The minds that won't be reached
Mister America
Try to hide
The emptiness that's you inside
When once you find that the way you lied
And all the corny tricks you tried
Will not forestall the rising tide of
Hungry freaks, Daddy . . .

They won't go
For no more
Great mid-western hardware store
Philosophy that turns away
From those who aren't afraid to say
What's on their minds
(The left-behinds of the Great Society)

Hungry freaks, Daddy . . .

Mister America
Walk on by
Your supermarket dream
Mister America
Walk on by
The liquor store supreme
Mister America
Try to hide
The product of your savage pride
The useful minds that it denied
The day you shrugged and stepped aside
You saw their clothes and then you cried:
THOSE HUNGRY FREAKS, DADDY!

They won't go
For no more
Great mid-western hardware store

BILLY the Mountain
BILLY the Mountain
A regular picturesque
Postcardy mountain
Residing between lovely
Rosamond and Gorman
With his stunning wife ETHELL,
A tree!
A tree!

BILLY was a mountain
ETHELL was a tree
Growing off of his shoulder

BILLY was a mountain
ETHELL was a tree
Growing off of his shoulder

Billy had two big
Caves for eyes,
With a cliff for a jaw
That would go up 'n down,
And whenever it did,
He'd puff out some dust,
And hack up a boulder
(HACK!)
Hack up a boulder

What's there to live for?
Who needs the peace corps?
Think I'll just DROP OUT
I'll go to Frisco
Buy a wig & sleep
On Owsley's floor

Walked past the wig store
Danced at the Fillmore
I'm completely stoned
I'm hippy & I'm trippy
I'm a gypsy on my own
I'll stay a week & get the crabs &
Take a bus back home
I'm really just a phony
But forgive me
'Cause I'm stoned

Every town must have a place
Where phony hippies meet
Psychedelic dungeons
Popping up on every street
GO TO SAN FRANCISCO . . .

How I love ya, How I love ya
How I love ya, How I love ya Frisco!
How I love ya, How I love ya
How I love ya, How I love ya
Oh, my hair is getting good in the back!

Every town must have a place
Where phony hippies meet
Psychedelic dungeons
Popping up on every street
GO TO SAN FRANCISCO . . .

Hotcha!

First I'll buy some beads
And then perhaps a leather band
To go around my head
Some feathers and bells
And a book of Indian lore
I will ask the Chamber Of Commerce
How to get to Haight Street
And smoke an awful lot of dope
I will wander around barefoot
I will have a psychedelic gleam in my eye at all times
I will love everyone
I will love the police as they kick the ->-bleeped-<- out of me on the street
I will sleep . . .
I will, I will go to a house
That's, that's what I will do
I will go to a house
Where there's a rock & roll band
'Cause the groups all live together
And I will join a rock & roll band
I will be their road manager
And I will stay there with them
And I will get the crabs
But I won't care
Because . . .

Napoleon: Wait a minute

Napoleon: Wait a minute!
FZ: The evil corrupter of youth is going to take him from Step One, which is a mere high-school diploma stuffed with a gym sock, to Step Two, which is a college-degree stuffed with absolutely nothing at all. Smoke that and it'll really get you out there!

Napoleon:
I still don't feel as good as I felt this mornin' . . . yeah yeah . . .

Whoever we are
Wherever we're from
We shoulda noticed by now
Our behavior is dumb
And if our chances
Expect to improve
It's gonna take a lot more
Than tryin' to remove
The other race
Or the other whatever
From the face
Of the planet altogether

They call it THE EARTH
Which is a dumb kinda name
But they named it right
'Cause we behave the same . . .
We are dumb all over
Dumb all over,
Yes we are
Dumb all over,
Near 'n far
Dumb all over,
Black 'n white
People, we is not wrapped tight

Nurds on the left
Nurds on the right
Religious fanatics
On the air every night
Sayin' the Bible
Tells the story
'N makes the details
Sound real gory
'Bout what to do
If the geeks over there
Don't believe in the book
We got over here

You can't run a race
Without no feet
'N pretty soon
There won't be no street
For dummies to jog on
Or doggies to dog on
Religious fanatics
Can make it be all gone
(I mean it won't blow up
'N disappear
It'll just look ugly
For a thousand years . . . )

You can't run a country
By a book of religion
Not by a heap
Or a lump or a smidgeon
Of foolish rules
Of ancient date
Designed to make
You all feel great
While you fold, spindle
And mutilate
Those unbelievers
From a neighboring state

TO ARMS! TO ARMS!
Hooray! That's great
Two legs ain't bad
Unless there's a crate
They ship the parts
To mama in
For souvenirs: two ears (Get Down!)
Not his, not hers (but what the hey?)
The Good Book says:
"It gotta be that way!"
But their book says:
"REVENGE THE CRUSADES . . .
With whips 'n chains
'N hand grenades . . . "
TWO ARMS? TWO ARMS?
Have another and another
Our God says:
"There ain't no other!"
Our God says
"It's all okay!"
Our God says
"This is the way!"

It says in the book:
"Burn 'n destroy . . .
'N repent, 'n redeem
'N revenge, 'n deploy
'N rumble thee forth
To the land of the unbelieving scum on the other side
'Cause they don't go for what's in the book
'N that makes 'em BAD
So verily we must choppeth them up
And stompeth them down
Or rent a nice French bomb
To poof them out of existance
While leaving their real estate just where we need it
To use again
For temples in which to praise
OUR GOD
("Cause he can really take care of business!")

And when his humble TV servant
With humble white hair
And humble glasses
And a nice brown suit
And maybe a blonde wife who takes phone calls
Tells us our God says
It's okay to do this stuff
Then we gotta do it,
'Cause if we don't do it,
We ain't gwine up to hebbin!
(Depending on which book you're using at the time . . . Can't use theirs . . . it don't work . . . it's all lies . . . Gotta use mine . . . )
Ain't that right?
That's what they say
Every night . . .
Every day . . .
Hey, we can't really be dumb
If we're just following God's Orders
Hey, Let's get serious . . .
God knows what he's doin' . . .
He wrote this book here
An' the book says:
"He made us all to be just like Him," so . . .
If we're dumb . . .
Then God is dumb . . .
(An' maybe even a little ugly on the side)

DUMB ALL OVER
A LITTLE UGLY ON THE SIDE
DUMB ALL OVER
A LITTLE UGLY ON THE SIDE

There's a doll that looks like mommy
She'll do anything but cry
(I seen her)
There's a doll that looks like daddy
He's a funny little man
Push a button & ask for money
There's a dollar in his hand
(Check his wallet)

We gotta send Santa Claus back to the Rescue Mission
Christmas don't make it no more
Don't you know that murder & destruction
Scream the toys in every store
(Think this'll sell in New York?)

There's a man who runs the country
There's a man who tried to think
And they're all made out of plastic
When they melt they start to stink
There's a book with smiling children
Nearly dead with Christmas joy!
And smiling in his office
Is the creep who makes the toys . . .

I wonder if I'm the only one who subconsciously wears the same clothes most of the time. I didn't even notice it for the most part until my gf fussed at me today for always wearing the same button down, cargo shorts, and cap when I have two dressers full of clothes and around 30 caps.

I thought about it and the only reason I can think of for doing that is because I don't have to check my chest in that shirt before going out since it's baggy and has a vertical stripe print. The shorts and hat? Eh, probably because I'm lazy and they're the first ones I see. I do have to get out of this phase since classes start in a few days. People will think I'm odd wearing the same things all the time, lol.

But thank THE LORD

To help you do that jerkin' that'll
Blot out yer Disco Sorrow!

You know it's just your foolish pride

Like a fool, I fell in love with you
You turned my whole world upside down

I feel like crap. Am I going to be alone forever, because i don't know how to make contact with other people in real life and i only get along with a few select people, and with others we just have nothing to say to each other?

When evening falls
She'll run to me
Like whispered dreams
Your eyes can't see

Soft and warm
She'll touch my face
A bed of straw
Against the lace

We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
Sail away on ships of wonder

But life's not a wheel
With chains made of steel
So bless me

Come the dawn
Come the dawn
Come the dawn
Come the dawn

We believed we'd catch the rainbow
Ride the wind to the sun
And sail away on ships of wonder

But life's not a wheel
With chains made of steel
So bless me, oh bless me, bless me

Come the dawn

My mom found an uncooked chicken nugget I threw outside.  She told me to stop feeding the cat.

My response: "okay"

She knows I'm going to continue to do it, but I'll just be more crafty about it.

Next time I get caught, I'll tell her I wasn't feeding the cat....I was feeding the oppossum....the cats just happen to get it.

In another fantastic journey of me overplaying the Resident Evil 6 demo due to my extreme cheapness of not buying the actual game,  I joined up with a guy in the Jake/Sherry campaign.  I was Sherry and he was Jake we had great communication to each other giving praises and thanks to each other.  Then towards the end I had a remote control bomb in my inventory that I wanted to get rid of so I was going to blow up some crate.  I give the command to my partner to "fall back" and he replied negatively.

Sherry:  "Fall back"

Jake: "No"

Sherry: "Fall back"

Jake: "What are you mental?"

I gave him two chances to back up but he refused both times so what do I do?  I say to myself "okay" and detonate the bomb and it took so much of his health I had to revive him.  I gave him some of my health tablets.  I think his feelings were hurt a little bit lol.  Two minutes later he sent me a friend request haha!

How does one come up with such a beautiful, upbeat melody to these words? Frank Zappa, you were a genius!

You're a lonely little girl
But your Mommy & your Daddy don't care
You're a lonely little girl

The things they say
Just hurt your heart
It's too late now
For them to start
To understand
The way you feel
The world for them
Is too unreal
So you're lonely, lonely, lonely,
Lonely little girl
You're lonely . . .

Every night you sit in your room
Right by your radio
Reading your books
Pictures of the idol you love

The words that he sings
The way that he looks
In a picture on the wall
There's a tear in his eye

Last night I borrowed a shirt my brother left behind to wear to bed. He buys his clothes from the men's section, but....uh, you could swear they were from the women's. No one was going to see me, so I didn't care.

But I had to go to the bathroom, and I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. My shoulders have gotten SO broad, and I haven't even done any working out. My grandma's been saying that I seem to really be muscling up, and I thought she was just being nice. But looking at myself in that shirt...it looks like a woman's shirt on a man's body. And I thought "how could anyone think I am female anymore??"

I also caught a glimpse of my face in my brother's mirror (one of those 3 mirrors so you see 3 of you at different angles lol). I was in a crappy mood because I was cleaning my dog's butt again, and I looked...well, like an angry young man.

I have had multiple family members mistake my voice for my youngest brother's. And if even I, the dysphoric one, can see a man's face now...yeah.

Not sure about how to act or react to people this night.

Today the local biggest festivities of the year star, and I will be going as a girl for the first time. Seeing as we are in the part of the country where there are the biggest difficulties for finding a girlfriend or having casual sex, and with everybody drunk to the maximum, I can expect somebody trying to hit on me. Most of my friends have to shooo away lists of people desperate for sex.

And I don't know how to react. Hormones are driving my libido crazy as of lately, haven't had sex for a year and without anti depressants, desire is back. But people may be too drunk to notice my manly face... And maybe I should not drink. I don't know what stupid things I can do...

Ohh, lol. Don't be so sure. As female I never seemed to be the pretty one, not even close, but as soon as people found out I wanted to be a guy "but that's so sad! You were so beautiful!" I even had one woman...I was butching it out that day. I mean I was pretty nasty looking, messy hair, acne breakout, sloppy clothes, running on no sleep and hadn't brushed my teeth. And she had heard I was trans and went "I just have to say, I think this is so sad, and you don't have to do this! You are such a beautiful girl, I mean you are just so pretty, you don't have to do this to yourself!"

I think some people say it because they think we transition because we feel too ugly to be women or something. Lol.

I was talking about something like this with a friend last night. Her daughter worked as a receptionist in her dad's clinic for awhile and, sometimes, little kids would come in. Every time the little kid was a girl, people would make comments about how pretty they were and every time the little kid was a boy, they'd make comments about how smart they were. It's like that video that's been circulating around of Dustin Hoffman.

I really want to see this.

I started rewatching True Blood (last time, I couldn't get through it) and I'm glad I did. Part of me is grinning because I see Baelfire (his actor anyway) and I like the character with PTSD. It does annoy me how often Bill says "Sookie" though and I just watched a scene where Sookie is complaining about Bill being away and caring more about vampire politics than her when the reason he's gone is because he saved her life from another vampire. So right now, I'm thinking she's a really ungrateful b-word that rhymes with witch.

LOL woooooow.  Now that I think of it, there's a good chance people other than my family will feel the same way.  If anything, they will tell me that I only feel this way because I was picked on because of my weight or something like that and will say that losing weight will make me feel better.  I really do need to lose a lot of pounds though because that would incease my confidence and make me feel male.

I have decided to detransition back to female. But I won't stop there, no. I want to transition to Shania Twain. I'd be so much hotter that way. And besides, the signs have been there ever since I was young. I do, after all, have brown hair just like her. And brown eyes. I'm also the same height, and with some weight loss, I could have her sexy body. and I love her music. I think it's well established that I was meant to be her. That is all.

Hmm......

I have been lying to you all along.

I DO have a girl living with me, she's not my girlfriend though. She's not really my type, too small, too hairy and she is more like a sister to me.
She is not very talkative and the only two words in english she seems to know are "rough" and "room". I told her several times that her body is hairy as hell, but you know what she does? She runs around naked in public. People don't seem to mind though. They think it's cute, it seems. She is also about 12 years younger than me, so she is kind of like my little weird sister. She likes rice and noodles and oddly enough, chitlins.

I asked my mom was she happy that I have no children and she paused and said "out of wedlock yeah" but she wants me to get married and have kids. I told her I was never going to have kids. She then told me that she was "worried" about that. I said "well at least you will never have to babysit them but she wants to. Then she says that she want all her kids to have husbands and be married.  I think she suspects that I like women and that I don't like men.  She's just like my dad in that sense.  He wants his bloodline to continue but he's sad because it will end with me.  Sorry mom, sorry dad.  I'm never having children of my own free will, and chances are I am not going to marry a man....a cismale at least.

I can tell you what you run into on the full game, the same boss 3 times per character story.

Miss Bungle, you had me in stiches with that video! Thank you.  ;D

How the heck did I go from telling a facebook friend, " Well, what are you waiting for? You dont need my permission!" To being called "mistress," when that friend suddenly turned submissive? Im almost scared to tell him to have a nice day in case he sees it as an order. -_- I really have some.... interesting friends.

Yes, my mom and sisters and I had to bottle feed a litter of Siamese kittens after 'Bonnie' the mother cat was hit by a car

What we did was squeeze a drop of formula out and rub the the nipple against their mouths until they took hold themselves

It took a little while but they caught on and all kittens survived to go to good homes

We're on the fourth feeding and two of them are doing fairly well with the feeding especially since we switched to a bigger nipple.  The other one, though, is being a bit more of a pain.  My mom had to use the eyedropper to make sure she got something. =/  Hopefully the next feeding in a couple of hours will go fine.

I'm so tired. @.@  I had to wake up every hour to make sure the heating pad didn't shut off.  We're going to be using hand warmers that have been put into two or three socks so the puppies don't get to them.  I'm iffy about the idea, but my parents think it'll be fine.

Anyway, the puppies have names!

The male (which is the one I was handed at the fostering place) is called King Tut (Tut for short), my mom's is named Icis, and my dad's is Marshmallow (he hated the idea of naming her Cleopatra and he really wanted one to be called Marshmallow so his got the name). 

I'll have to get more pictures because they're adorable!   Now if we can convince them that it's a good idea to defecate.

Like today, I had bags of groceries and they just seemed really heavy. Granted they were stuffed but still. It seemed like I should have been able to carry them anyway.

So, day 3 of this madness....
Tonight I spoke to my Sister about this sub/domme business and she was kind of surprised and said" here i am deep in the erotic hypnosis and fetish stuffs and you're the one with a subbie"

I told her I am so not the type for this stuff. And what she said surprised me. She said I would be an amazing Domme because I am a very steong, commanding woman who has to have things her way most of the time. She called me an Alpha. I immediately thought of the TV show, Teen Wolf. 

I am so out of my element. Caleb thinks it's hilarious.  I want to say, "look, move on." But he seems to be genuinly happy to call me, 'Mistress'.

Oh gosh when I come out to her, I will need to wear sunglasses because she will try to find some deep underyling meaning as to why I "feel this way".   Then she will make me feel all nervous when she look at me with those eyes, when I shouldn't feel nervous.  I'm a man.  End of it.

My aunt was kind of like that, and probably still is (I haven't seen her in a long time). She gave me a long talking to and tried to psychoanalyze me when I was coming out lol. These types really do mean well but it comes off really offensive. Thing is, there's probably not much you could say to convince her. Even if you were super confident and said all the "right" things her mind will still wander.

The butt licking, barf eating, furry tailed rat is trying hard to get on my nerves this morning, but I won't let him. He's still darned cute though.

Oh wait, now he's trying to cuddle...

I never really liked anything that could be considered girly. I always pretended to like certain things. Then decided to stop pretending to like feminine things to fit in.

But as I slowly become more comfortable with myself, I find myself being drawn to things that are somewhat feminine. Lol. Now I have to do the whole "accepting myself as I am" thing all over again.

Should have seen me when I saw this grasshopper-looking thing sitting on my front door as I came up the stairs. and i about screamed when I saw the thing could fly!!
What the hell do you americans feed your wildlife over here? back in europe, grasshoppers are tiny little things. Over here they're big enough to put a saddle on. Same with some of your beetles. Then there's the bats that keep coming into our apartment somehow. I find myself wishing I was back in the UK at such times.

Is strong willpower something that one is born with, something caused by the environment, a mixture, or does everyone have the potential to have strong will power?
My son has a strong will like me. I am so proud, but it makes somethings difficult.
When people find out and/or acknowledge who they are, does everyone find out that they really like themselves or am I just lucky?

I'm starting to become an expert on the resident evil 6 demo (though I have no clue how to use the explosive rounds).  I start to see some of the same people play and there's one guy in particular who I love to partner up with.  If I could marry the guy I would because he knows the ins and outs of the demo just like me and he effectively communicates through the game.  That's my favorite type of partner and I hope to see him online again today.  After I play a couple of more games with him I may add him as a friend.  I find that the best partners in the game are the ones I can communicate with well.  I can even get a feel for who is new at playing, someone that's been playing for a little bit of time, and someone who has extensively been playing it.  Oftentimes those in the first category are harder to work with, but it provides a sense of accomplishment when they navigate their way through and eventually be the demo with them.  Oftentimes those in the second category are harder to work with, as they usually completely ignore communication, which usually ends up getting them killed, especially in the Jake and Sherry campaign.  It's like seriously, If I'm above and you're below and I tell you to wait, then you should wait so I can help you shoot the zombies and zombie dog near you.  If I tell you to fall back, it's because there's like 4 or 5 zombies waiting to shoot you up ahead and you're not going to get far if you think you're going to go guns ablazing.  You're going to die if you do so let me snipe them off.  It won't ins santly kill them and yeah they will transform, but at least they won't be constantly shooting at you.  Just stay out of the claw's range and you will be good.  I think the worst campaign for lack of communication is Chris and Piers since there's a secret room with a shot gun, first and spray with a crate.  I Piers and I always tell my partner to "follow my lead" after getting rid of the large B.O.W. temporarily.  I hate when my partner doesn't do that though but every time he does I motion to him "thanks" or "I appreciate it" or "nice" or "good one".  The partner I was talking about earlier, the guy is so good at the game he already knows and I don't have to tell him anything which is awesome!

I need to force myself to enjoy being a female.  Wouldn't it be something if I were to ask for our notorious banned blogger to help me do that?  I've thought about it before but I don't know if I would but dang, there's nothing in store for me transitioning but pain and heartache and being more isolated than I am now (and I'm pretty freaking isolated).  I could save alot of time and money not transitioning.  I just need to be a woman.  It's funny because before I considered transition and option I had little ambition.  Afterwards....well, I still had little ambition, but at least I was eager to be the person that I am.  Why cant I just be a woman?  I need to stay a woman.  The way I see it, I'm going to be miserable either way, man or woman.  I should just stay a miserable woman that become a miserable man.

I've always been a miserable person ever since I was little, and it stems for my personal experience being trans.

Like LordKat said Malachite. I think it's best to just be yourself and just focus on the positives. Right now, you're living as female, in situations that aren't ideal, but there's always something good that you have, and that's hope for a better future. Without hope that things will be better, there's nothing, whether you're living as female or male, that will make you happy. Try to live as happily as female as you can right now, but don't forget that you have the power to make things better for yourself, whatever your choices may be.

Some folks are just incapable of stepping outside of themselves and seeing things from other's perspectives, and then actually admitting to a fault is again yet another thing. This makes it difficult to forgive when they can't feel any need to offer an apology.

No, even if I go a few days without giving him people food, he still does it. I think its the vegetable content of his doggy food as he's even worse when I've fed him dog food even higher in vegetables.   And he did eat a couple bowls of dog food today.

Even when I do reach out, I understate everything, all the time.  Sometimes I don't understate here on Susan's, but even in my 'get me out of here before I do the 's' word and die' last ditch letter to my mom all I wrote was something like, 'I'm more depressed than usual.'

I tend to understate myself at times as well.

Who said you shouldn't be a burden when you're feeling bad? and why did you go and believe them? :) friendship and love is about support! if there is no burden, no weight to support, what are you supporting? air? :)

Take your time til you find the right words :) No point in sending the wrong words!

Liam Erik,Malachite

Don't understate things, people will never go the extra five miles to find out what you really meant! They'll never assume you don't mean what you say unless you show clear signs of being dishonest. For your own good, please say things as they are! It's hard, but it will get easier if you get used to doing it... ^-^

Hopefully it wil get better as I get more confidence within myself.

I get what you're saying, but I actually meant from other side. Does this make more sense? Personally, when other people reach out to me about their problems, it's not a burden to me at all.
I also worry about being a burden and am shy. I am just a lot stupider when it comes to stopping myself which is a mistake because me and people don't get along.

And all I can do is shake my head and sigh at her questionable life choices. I just want her to go to school, get a degree and get a career. Instead she would rather stock shelves at walmart. -_-

what do guys see in me that I don't?  There's a guy who lives in Pakistan wanting to get to know me better  and a guy from Texas. The only pictures they have seen are my Facebook profile picture and background. my FB avitar is the same as my one here. Both seem like great guys. And the one from Pakistan doesn't seem perturbed by my transgender status. Poor Caleb's going to have to work out and learn to fight to keep these guys at bay. :P

I'm thinking about coming out to my other sister but at this particular time, it would profit me nothing to do so, so I'll probably wait until I book a top surgery date.

To add to this thought, I'm thinking when I do come out to her, if I see there's any chance she might be accepting of me, that I would give her the link to this site and encourage her to join it to see that we are just ordinary people and not controlled by the devil.  I would even tell her my screen name and to go through all my posts to see what goes through my mind and how I really feel about my transgenderness.  However, I would only do this if I feel confident she wouldn't run around and tell others, which I'm somewhat confident she wouldn't do.....well she may go and tell the oldest sister but she already knows (whether she accepts it or not, which she doesn't, I already came out to her).

I feel like I may be able to go through to her more than the oldest sister.  Then again, I hope they don't act like lunatics when I tell them I actually plan on getting top surgery.  I know my mom will act like that.

I'm wondering if I should go to a zombie thing and socialize or stay home and get more much needed cleaning done. I'm also wondering where I am going to put the garbage when I'm done cleaning since the bin outside is completely full (the whole building shares it and the shop downstairs just opened up this week).
I'm also thinking of Norse mythology, asatru (which I keep get the letters mixed up) pagans, Odin, Loki, and my thoughts and feelings on them all. Someone I met relatively recently who I might see at the zombie thing is an asatru pagan.

It's only the second day of school, and I already have a hand injury from my backpack. My Domestic Relations casebook is so huge and heavy that I hurt my hand carrying it around with me today, and from picking up my heavy backpack off the floor and off the seat of the train to put it back on my back. My hand is swollen and the bones in it hurt. I am definitely not going to be knitting this weekend.

I can't decide if I'd be a great villain or not. Sometimes, I am rather evil, but I rarely act on my evil thoughts. I think I'd be one of those people who kind of walk the line between being villain and not being a villain if I had superpowers.

And apparently, I'm basically the assistant manager there, just without the official title and being trained to become a manager. Just hope they don't move me to a store I don't like anytime soon, lol. I like the one I am at and its only a mile from my house.  Took me like 13 minutes to get dressed, find the dog outside, put him in and get to work this morning and that included light makeup.

We didn't have ground beef for me to make my hamburger and bean dish, so I took some frozen patties and ground them up in the food processor lol.

As I was cooking it I was thinking about how angry I am that there are people who feel suicidal because of how hateful our society is. That many of us consider suicide before we consider transition. That some of us still consider suicide because it's just so hard to get through our day to day lives sometimes, just for taking hormones and having surgeries to be happy with ourselves and at peace. What a load of bull. I want to do something about it. But I don't really think visibility is the road for me - for personal reasons, but also because I think we have enough visibility at this point and it's not working. In some ways, it's making things worse.

This is the former friend who took out her low self esteem on me. She got a response from the guy who attacked the trans group last year saying he's going to promote it at PFLAG.
So we've got a group no one wanted run by someone who can't stand to have even small mistakes corrected promoted by a transphobic bully. Nah I can't see any problems arising from this.
I also feel way too scared of mere words and the opinions of people I hate. That sucks.

Given what you've told me about these people you interacted with, I'd say, if their group goes well, it's more of an indication of the sad state of society rather than a reflection on you. I know a lot of people who want to be all "LGBT-inclusive" but only when it's "fun" or "convenient", and heaven forbid that they actually try to combat their own transphobic thoughts in the process. They have the attitude of "well I say I support it so I can do no wrong."

I say forget 'em, seriously. You're already dealing with enough in your life. You have transition, which believe me, is a bigger stress than it feels and takes a lot out of you, especially early in. You've got your classes to complete, you have your son that you have to take care of, and I am sure many other things that are more worthy of your attention and concern than these "supportive" people.

I've always heard that if I come out, I need to have a back-up plan in case I get kicked out and some money.  There's a small part of me that wants to come out to my mom now and just use my life savings (which is about 4 grand including my top surgery fund) to use that and live in a motel or apartment, work somewhere  and start a new life if it comes to the point of me having to move out.  The rational side of me says to wait about a year to come out when I have the funds for top surgery and a little extra to live comfy soemwhere else in case I get kicked out then.  Neither option is wrong, but I may go with the rational plan.

+1  There's not much real talent out in the music industry anymore, it all seems to be some kind of sexual performance for those unable to discern the difference between visual sleaze and vocal talent.

there is, just not in the charts or public. What a shame, instead of the talented ones we always get performance artists like Lady Gaga and her ilk.

Manual is ok for occasional, but unless you're really into cars, I'd go for the automatic.

I can drive either. I like manual because a clutch is cheaper to replace than an automatic transmission. Plus there is always the increased gas mileage.

I still have awhile to look around. I'm sure I'll go with price when considering.

As many of you might know, I moved back home with my father to attend law school and to help him out some after my mother died, it's too expensive in the Northeast to live on my own. Things are fine, the areas pretty nice, it's close to where I work, I don't have to pay rent, but my younger siblings. . . make life here less than ideal. All except my youngest brother are irresponsible liars, who steal and sell everything for drugs, and are continually about to burn the house down (I mean that literally--they put stuff in the oven, and then leave, causing me to come home awhile later wondering why the air smells like smoke). Their friends are just as bad, and because my siblings never lock the door, their friends just let themselves into the house all the time without knocking, there's times when I am home all alone and random young men let themselves in and make themselves comfortable. They're all under 21 and yet they sit here and drink alcohol and do drugs on our property. They break into things to pawn and scrap stuff to pay for their habits. Luckily, I don't have much of anything of value and my little dog is a biter, so when someone broke into my room through the window one day (I padlock the door), they didn't get anything. They did though break into my father's room (which he also padlocks) and stole some jewelry we had from my great-aunt who passed away, and they even sold my father's plumbing machine coil (300-lbs of stainless steel) for scrap. (*it's hard to always know who "they" are, since I am never here when it happens)

I am never around when they're doing this, if so, I'd have no hesitation on calling the police. But today, my father informed me that while I was out , he heard my dog barking and wondered why. He went over to where she was barking and saw those kids on the back porch making hash oil with one of his blow torches. Instead of calling the police, he just told them to leave. Now these creepy kids keep pulling into the driveway, idling, and then pulling out. I think they're waiting for us to go to sleep. My father has one of their jackets which has drugs in the pocket. Dad doesn't want to report it to the police, because he doesn't want them to have a criminal record--IMO they need one, they're not just innocent little hippies smoking some dope. There's been a string of break ins in the area recently, and I bet they're involved. None of them have jobs, how can they afford drugs? If they break into our house and steal our stuff, they have to be doing it to other people as well. Anyways, drug violations are usually easy to get expunged after 5 years (for misdemeanors) or 10 years (for felonies), so that gives them plenty of time to mature before they go out and try to get jobs. 

Because of this, I was looking to move out before. I was planning on moving to Central Falls or Pawtucket, both of which are not "ideal" areas, but those are the only places where I'd be able to afford to move. When I told my father, he completely freaked out (here's his words: "CENTRAL FALLS?!?! CENTRAL FALLS?!?! You'll need to get a gun over there!" I thought he was going to have a stroke). But, I feel like I need a gun here.  At least on my own, it's easier to know who the enemies are, here, I can't always tell who the innocent friends are and who the enemies are, even my own siblings save one are the enemies.

If they're manufacturing hash oil, it's only likely that they're into other stuff or soon will be. I already know my younger sister has dealt stuff in the past. I think one of my younger brothers is on something else too, because once (when I wasn't here and my father was at work), he went into a rampage and broke one of the doors--a little pot doesn't put you into a rampage. And, I don't feel comfortable having these kids just letting themselves into the house all the time--realistically I know I am tiny and physically weak compared to a young man, I know I may sound paranoid, but what if one decides to try to rape me one day? Or, I catch them inside stealing stuff, will they try to attack me then? 

And, I have a career to worry about. My firm does criminal prosecutions, and here I am, living with people who I think are involved in other crimes in the area and who I know do drugs and are likely continuing to deal them, and who drink alcohol illegally. This is crazy.

Of course, it probably doesn't help that I don't have the foggiest clue what I'm doing...  :-\

I know how you feel, Maddie. I get completely anxious and overwhelmed anytime I go into a store. I don't think I've bought myself new clothes for the past few years (I always get clothes from relatives for birthday/Christmas/as gifts). And now as I'm trying to dress more male, I get to relearn how to shop all over again! Joy -_-

As for what I'm thinking right now: I have a lot to learn. And even though it feels overwhelming, it helps to know I am not alone.

Also, I have serious penis-envy :P

I wonder if I'm ever going to look male proportioned despite my hips or if my hips (and the consequent trying to hide that hip shape) will constantly make me look horrible.
A former friend who blew up at me for politely correcting her claimed to an acquaintance of mine that she plans on having "All knowledge is worth having" tattooed on her hip. I want to ask why she would tattoo something she doesn't believe on herself, but that would likely cause a s-word storm that I am not prepared for yet.

I used to have all the tools and equipment to totally rebuild an automotive engine, that was before having two boys for kids. Now I couldn't tune the simplest motor, the tools mysteriously disappeared. Just as well, I'm not into grease and grime anymore.

I've still got most of the tools, the only ones I sold were the mig and tig welders, plasma cutter, the milling machine and a few large power tools. Although to be honest, I kind of miss having them around, it was nice to have the equipment to fix or fabricate most anything from steel, stainless or aluminum. I put a bit of money into them over the years. But I was unemployed and needed the cash influx several years ago.

Oh and I don't have acrylics currently. I do need to get them done soon, my thumb has been healed up for a while now.

I've been playing Star Trek online recently. and it's not a mission here or there. it's all day and into the wee hours of the morning. I think I'm pretty depressed, more so than I imagined. Star Trek and model kits used to be my escape from my dysphoria but it could also be the same for my depression too. The other day I was looking at Star Trek model kits online actually and really wanted to build one. It's been 13 years since I built one.

I have nothing against teachers, i am on good terms with several of them, i have something against discriminating ignorant 4ssholes who just don't realize that there are things i mentally just can't do thanks to my Aspergers.

Oh and i also love it when things have to be a certain way or else they're wrong. The only thing that definitely makes a story a short story is its length and not the plot, not the characters, not the writing style.


Oh and i love the german railroad systems. I love them so much i want to puke all over their CEO. 2 hours late at home.

My younger brother was a stutterer and agreed to attend high school classes only if he was not called on to read or recite anything in front of the students. One male teacher disregarded the agreement and made him stand and read in class whereupon he beat the teacher senseless, broke a window and stuffed him through it. Needless to say he never finished school and spent some time in a juvenile institution for assault, though he felt somewhat vindicated. Many years have passed since then and we talked about it and he said that stuttering to him was about as awful as if having his genitalia growing out of his face, it took him years and a few hundred gallons of alcohol and an alcohol treatment program to finally come to terms with it.

I need to borrow somebody's empathy meter; mine's rusted out.

This person who has been a family friend my whole life, and whom I see on a regular basis, has known I am trans for two years and has never used the right pronouns.  She's been very helpful and vocal about wanting to be there for me, etc., in other respects.  She's never given any indication that she didn't approve.  I know pronouns can be a major adjustment for some people (it never surprised me that she's taking forever and a day with it), so she's welcome to as much time she needs.  I've given her the benefit of the doubt for two years.  However, now, recently, she said with great vehemence she will NEVER use male pronouns on me, EVER, for any reason.  Her excuse is that she can't reconcile her memories of me as a child with my having been a male child.

My brain doesn't work like that.  I understand why her memories matter, and I understand what she is saying and why that would be problematic, but I don't understand why her thinking progresses from there to 'I'm just going to use female pronouns forever and ever.'  Why would that be okay?  What about me?  Why does she think I transitioned socially, legally, and medically, for the fun and games of it all?  What earthly difference does it make how supportive you say you are when you disagree with, ignore, or are offended by the most fundamental aspect of the issue?  I cannot articulate how disrespectful I think it is to deliberately refuse someone their pronouns. 

I am aware that I am socially inept and self-absorbed and that when I feel strongly about things, as about this, that I can have the empathy and forgiving nature of a large rock.  This is why I want time and space for consideration, and input, please, before doing anything to make sure I can see it all.  I know she has feelings and reasons that at least make sense to her, but I think she needs to get over it and treat me like a person.


Input, input?
I personally think you can have all the empathy you want when a person tells you they won't even try and wil never, ever try for you that is a limit. I can understand finding it very hard, I can understand needing a lot of time. But this person isn't willing to even give it a go for you and that's just not okay. I don't think the empathy lacking one is you in this case. If my dad can attempt to make a change... I mean he's known me all my life as a girl...

To me, that's like going up to someone and going "I know that we had history and that we loved eachother.  You are getting married and I still have unsettled feelings so I refuse to agnoligize your marriage.  To me, it didn't happen."  It just doesn't make sense.  I mean, I can understand the having trouble with memories thing, I get that.  But to tell someone that you have that much history with having known them your whole life that basically you refuse to treat them the way they want and are to be treated is really rude.  She doesn't have to replace her memories of you.  Just because your friend hasn't had black hair all her life doesn't mean your memories mean any less.

Maybe to her, it seems like since now you are male, then your past doesn't matter?  Like you are trying to erase all of what came before of yourself and in doing so, erase her too?  As if you being male means to her that girl she knew a long time ago didn't exist, and therefore all her memories are meaningless?  Does that make sense?  I fail at explaining things..

I visibly startled two women today. The first one was just a little surprised as I said "excuse me", which never happened when I had a girl's voice. And the second, she actually jumped and gasped and I felt really bad. :( I just wanted to look at the map and made a comment about not being able to find the dining place. It's weird, cause I am almost certain it has to do with my voice sounding male now, as I can't remember anyone seeming startled or weirded out when I approached them as female.

I'm happy that I have a passable voice but sad that these women are worried, even subconsciously, when a man approaches them randomly.

I got a little bit of one. I've been management before in a few different jobs, so I'm used to it a bit. Just would like things to quiet down a tad for a bit so I can relax and not wonder what clusterf*** I'm going to find when I go in the mornings to do all the paperwork and get the deposits ready. I still can't get over how basic math seems to be out of the reach of so many people.

Threw out some more food today for the critters (I had to, in order to make more space in the trash can since I missed trash day today).  Today they are getting a couple of chicken patties, a couple of good and cooked frankfurters (why my mom threw them out I have no clue), along with some not-so-good looking mushrooms.  I'm sure something will come snag it by midnight.  I hope so, lest I feel like an idiot.

Rats, you can count on it! There are forty rats for every person living in a home on the average, this comes from an exterminator. So unless you live close to some woods where raccoons abide and there's not packs of dogs in the neighborhood, you can bet you are feeding possibly a few crows and lots of rats. I wouldn't give rats any encouragement to move in after all they multiply like, well you know!

For some reason, I have only seen to mice near my house in my whole life (and that's because my cat had caught them).  I like to dump the food nearby because I love to see what's feasting on it. I've seen opossums, bugs, flies, and cats eat the stuff I leave out, but I haven't seen a rat do so but I'm certainly looking foward to it.....somewhat.


So I found out there's someone here registered as "Malachite000".  That's pretty cool.  Too bad they never posted.

Basically, I went to get my eyebrows done.  Now, I have male-like eyebrows, thick and very ingrown in my skin. The lady that usually did mine was busy with someone so she had another lady do it.  The lady didn't realize that you have to do small chunks of wax with me, you have to do small little areas at a time.  She lathers the wax on, goes to rip it off with the strip and it doesn't come off.  She tries again, no dice. Tries to rub it off with rubbing alcohol.  No dice.  She ends up having to rip out all the wax with tweezers.  By the time she was done my eye was a horrible red painful mess.  The usual lady made her stop and told me she would finish me up.  I had to take a break and walk around after taking some painkillers to calm down enough to get my other eye done.  When my usual lady quit and went to work at a bank, I never again had my eyebrows done.

My eyebrow story isn't nearly as bad, I went to one of those haircutting school to get my hair done and my brows too. The girl though heated up the wax too much and burned my skin. Then she didn't even finish up by plucking to keep it neat. The finish product was crooked and flaming red and swollen for awhile.  :D  Never again!

You know, before I transitioned, I really never fit into any feminine stereotype. Except maybe the way I spoke. But among women, in terms of interests, I stuck out like a sore thumb and no one would ever let me forget it either. I mean, I'd have been trans either way, but it made it a lot harder to live as a teenage girl when all I wanted was to fit in. And I truly believed I never really liked girly things, it just never appealed to me.

Now that I'm far enough into transition...all of a sudden these feminine interests are popping up. -_- WTF? All I can think now is, if I went back to being a teenager and had to fit in as a girl, I probably wouldn't send off the "lol dyke" vibes anymore. I could have lived under the radar until I could transition. Now I send off "lol ->-bleeped-<-" vibes and really have no desire to blend in so there you have it.

I finally got around to looking up the definition of  ->-bleeped-<-. I know enough Greek to figure out what the word means, but I wanted to know the theory behind it. I can say that having seen the "science" behind this term, I'm not surprised that most women get angry about it. I've never seen a more hetero/cis-normative idea try to be applied to trans* folk. These so-called "theories" hold about as much water as a funnel.

Sometimes when I'm reading an article or reading the comments on something, I just get fed up with people's bigotry. Yesterday I was reading the comments on a piece about the Chrysalis fashion line (They make underwear and bras specifically for trans women) and saw someone say "Of course they had to get real women to model this stuff, because ->-bleeped-<-s are too ugly". It specifically said in the article that all the models were trans women. I just threw up my hands and said "That's it, I'm done! I can't deal with this right now!" and turned off my browser.

I'm sorry, I'm just a really depressing person to be around sometimes. I think I'll go eat some ice cream. Here's a picture of a kitten to make you feel better.

I have a serious problem with picking at stuff.  I had a pimple on my check a week or so ago, and I picked it off, so it scabbed over, and I picked that scab off, and on and on. I am still picking at it, and now I have a big red spot on my cheek, it'll probably scar over once I eventually stop picking at the scabs and just let it heel. I just also don't get why I am so pimpley. I never had a problem back in middle or high school, but ever since I moved to FL I've been like pizza face (but only on my chin and cheek area near my lips) except for every once in awhile. I am going to have to wear make-up forever.

I have no idea. It's well water we pump out of the ground; I think it's "hard water", I 'd guess there's not much if any fluoride in it since we don't put any in.

Softer water lets you use less soap in your wash too. Although many people complain about how it can seem like they can never get all the soap washed off themselves in the shower due to the slickness you can get from showering in soft water.

My water is an overflow well that is high in minerals and hydrogen sulfate, so I have a softener and another filter system that takes out the smell. Not cheap, but worth it.

I kick myself all the time for waiting as long as I did to transition. :-\  and when I kick myself it hurts worse than others because I know just where it hurts.

Going in the right direction now.  I hope I can do something to put right some of the mess I have made for myself by going in the wrong direction. I suppose I am doing quite ok at it.

I'm wondering what people actually think of me. I'm wondering if I should ask, but afraid I wouldn't like or trust the response.
I'm also wondering about other stuff. When is student loans going to come through? Is everything going to be fine or did they screw up again? I don't know which rooms my tutorials are. Although, I was given a prescription for T, I was given no other information even though I asked. I uncertain about what I need to get or how to administer it.
I've also been reading comics, so I've got comic-related thoughts going around in my head. For example, I like the Taskmaster. He amuses me. I don't know what to think of the Hood. I'm thinking about Loki. I'm thinking about how I wish I could have all the comics and that I could read them all uninterrupted, not get bored, and retain all the details.
I've been thinking of my past, what still haunts me, and what I want to change. I am also thinking "Screw you guys. I'm going to be a super villain."
Oh I also think I am getting over my shyness. Maybe not, but it seems like it and that's really all that matters since shyness depends on my perception anyway.

I'm just predicting that some will criticize this because it'll be somewhat different from the mainstream fanart I've been seeing of him...

I am SO close to being able to have a goatee. I have thick, dark hairs all along my shin, and they are very populated. But there's this tiny bald patch right at the tip of my chin, just enough to split the goatee in two.

I shaved it to just a goatee in the shower, and I had to force myself to shave the rest off instead of passing it off as "meh, I can let it grow and see..." 

I know my actual puberty was passed long ago, and I am physically an adult, but I really do feel like a teenage guy in so many ways. Given where I am at in my physical appearance, how society sees/treats me, how I am sort of "discovering" myself now that I am actually having a shot at being myself in the world and in body. I could deal with that, except I have adult responsibilities so yeah. I have to pretend I'm not going through a huge personal growth right now.

I do have one thing that I can say though.  My well thought out threads tend to get well thought out replies compared to some of the replies on the freak out threads (besides my own replies on these threads, those are of course very well thought out :) not tooting my own horn or anything here)  Quality vs Quantity, something I have to sometimes think about how important this is.

I never realized how hard shaving legs was for MTFs until I had been on T for a while. I cut my leg and needed to clean it so I figured I'd shave it...I had much the same experience. My legs were hacked up/bleeding, the drain was clogged, I wasted tons of water, I didn't even get one clean swipe up the leg before it was clogged with hair...I probably used 4 razors, no joke, to shave both legs. It was horrible lol.

It was horrible lol.

Yeah, if anything proves I need to invest in LHR, this is it... Although I'm still holding out hope that E will completely destroy my body hair. Pretty please, oh magical HRT gods?

That's quite literally what I'm thinking at the moment. I think I gotta go get some sooner or later...

Too bad my fiancé started another playthrough of Persona 4 yesterday. :P

I honestly had very little body hair. the hairiest areas were my legs, face and head. My chest had just a spattering of dark hair which I think started growing in at age 20. I remember because I was in the bath and nearly dropped the phone in the water I was that horrified.

Its too bad that they don't cover it but it isn't exactly a contradiction.  Its just one group of people who's certain problems are not covered, all of the other benefits are equally given to you and the other participants.  You could try to make the argument against a policy not covering prescription eye care discriminates against people with bad eye sight but really you wouldn't have the grounds to do so.

Today I've just decided to completely rewire my ambitions. It's so sudden and dramatic that it would be pretty scary to someone observing actually; although then again I also figured out I was trans in one day as well, and that was years ago.

As I think about college I've decided to get a little more ambitious; yup, I'm seriously considering dropping the idea of a nursing degree and looking more into a biological science degree. Maybe I can overcome everything and be a vet, and, with biological sciences being one of the degree options required for the field, MAYBE I can overcome everything and become an astronaut too. =D I mean I'm not stupid I know I have terribly unrealistic goals added with trans stuff and I've been crappy in high school, but if else fails I can still put that biological science major to good use right? I could be a zoo person or something.

If it wasn't for Wishbone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wishbone_(TV_series)), I'd be so lost whenever a classic book was brought up. Thanks to that show, I can blunder my way safely through any classic book obstacles if there was an episode on it.

Is it weird that I have actual bedtimes for my two "younger" plushies?

No, it doesn't.  It's just kinda hanging there.

And nah, Fenrir sometimes gets tucked in when I leave, and when I go to sleep I make sure his little face is outside of the covers so he doesn't suffocate.

I don't know if going into that career is what makes them sexy, but I do have to agree that the ones that are voice actors do have a certain quality about them....if James Earl Jones or Casey Kasem weren't both over 80 years old...

Well, there's Mark Hamill. He's pretty much exclusively a voice actor these days. He was the voice of the Joker in almost every non-live action Batman outing, AND he's the voice of the Fire Lord in Avatar: The Last Airbender!

One year ago I was told: "Now that you have lost weight, you have no butt anymore, and it was a great sight" And that happened before coming out of the closet. They really pay attention to those details... You will need to work out that butt, so you better start with those squats...

What my mother keeps on saying and actually it is a real problem, no matter what i wear, it keeps slipping off. I have lost a lot of weight due to stress, which is not a good thing for a rather obese young guy like me. The weird and actually quite worrying thing is that i keep losing weight despite having gone back to my old eating habits.

For me the real problem was sitting down without cushioning. In my first GID aware days I was losing 0.5 kg per week (wasting, could not digest food due to stress and anxiety), and it was impossible. Going in the metro, or old chairs, and I could feel the bone against a flat surface. My weight now is even smaller than before, but at lest I can sit. I take several  photos to keep checking the evolution, but my bum is something I've never shown a lot of interest in, apart from keeping it hair-free.

Heh, Back in 2006 I called it my built-in cushion, I could sit everywhere (like that short from cyanide & Happiness).

I had actually quoted you bro.  I was gonig to save it, but then I just decided to delete it.  I'm sure there will be another thread he will make that will bring up God again and that's where I'm going to say that he really does need to put his faith in God and how he should really seek Him instead of the advice of men (which is clearly not working anyways).

Took my first dose of E today. I felt... happy? Is that this feeling? I haven't felt it in so long, it's hard to remember.

Pretentiousness aside, I felt great. Not sure if it's my brain finally being fed the right hormones, or if it's just psychosomatic, I don't care. I'm usually a bundle of bristles surrounded by all these bright eyes and bushy tails when I head into work, especially if I had trouble sleeping like I did last night. But I walked into the building with a smile on my face and a spring in my step. (Or at least a sway in my hips...) I started giggling uncontrollably about halfway through the day, this went on for five straight minutes. Luckily, no one noticed.

I loved the movie Black Dream Hole (Sailor Moon) when I was younger but I could not figure out why.  But I knew I loved LOVED Peruru.  He was the first character I ever wanted to crossplay.

Turns out Rupert's voice actor does Peruru. XD  That explains why I loved him so much but didn't know why.

Lately I have had trouble focusing so I am forcing myself to do things in 5 minute bursts. Like, if I have to clean up my room, I just set the stopwatch for five minutes and go nuts. It seems to work well enough, keeps me focused on it to get a large chunk done.

I don't know if this is the T or if I just respond to stress this way now. I used to have super focus when I was under stress but now, when I am stressed, it all goes out the window.

I love me some Sailor Uranus... ;D Hey, why don't you and your lover, er, I mean, totally het cousin come over for dinner tonight, Uranus? Damnable American dubbing companies... This is why I don't watch ANY anime in English any more. Well, this started it, 4Kids hammered the last nail in the coffin.

I tried to learn Japanese, so i could watch without subtitles, but holy cow... I don't think I could learn Japanese if you paid me. I'm just going to go back to my German Rosetta Stone now...

On a completely unrelated note, my nipples were feeling weird today. As in, I could actually feel them. That was a bizarre sensation, I must say. Usually if something is touching my chest I'm like, "Something is on my chest." I don't remember ever really feeling my nipples separately before. They were kind of itchy, too. Is this all in my head? I shouldn't be having any physical effects from E this quickly, right?

It made me decide to make an HRT journal, to record various unusual feeling and sensations I get throughout the day. Hopefully, it will help me sort out happenstance from enemy action. (Points if you get that reference.)

I like Ugly Betty's portrayal of a transwoman the best. Alexis is awesome; she's strong, independent, she's feminine but she isn't an over-the-top stereotype, she's not a complete moron about her dating life, her dating life is not the center of her character, etc.

Rebecca Romijn was perfect for the role. ^.^ (not just because she's rly tall o.O)

Mi parents could have sent "accidentally" my walking pole, mixing it with the ones from my brother. My plan is to take the bike out in Saturday and make an easy hiking routeon sunday (3 hours aprox), but...

I need the saturday's morning for several things:

- Recover missing sleep hours from work week

- Mail back a t-shirt (they sent the wrong one)

- Go back to my parent's place and find the stick. I may consider taking my 1st gen gameboy, too.

- Buy meat. I was planning on going vegetarian, but for the time being I've settle with no more pork.

- Mass cook for the next week. I haven't cooked for 4 days, and it really helps. I will be able to go back to the gym in october.

- Black clothing laundry



My parent's won't be at home for a week, so I could go there in female attire instead of changing to go there, but I'll swallow my pride to avoid neighbours gossiping till they discover. I don't think they would recognize me in the dark, but If I am seen opening the door, it will be quite easy to identify me (I've lived there for almost 30 years). Also, I only have one clean dress and I'd rather keep it for a special occasion. With the heat wave all of my firl clothes are currently drying


Anyways, I bought this hoodie and top:

I love Jessie J's video for "Who's Laughing Now." I only recently came across it, and I guess some critics were hard on her because they thought the song was coming off a bit too strong. But I love it! I think she is totally entitled to give a big "F U" to the kids who tormented her.

You're certainly not alone with those feelings Jessica, don't let it ruin your own plans because true to life there is always someone prettier, sexier, more vivacious and successful in every respect than others and it doesn't deter those others in their own quest to be the best of who they really are.

Actually, my grandma thinks I am going to die very young lol. This was our conversation yesterday:

*long period of silence*
G: so how are you feeling?
Me: Um...in terms of what?
G: you know, healthwise
Me: Fine...why?
G: well, with all the changes, isn't that hard on your body?
Me: Not really, I feel basically the same. Just happier.
G: ah. That's what Cher said about that...Chaz? That he is happier now. I suppose that's what matters the most.

In her head she's probably thinking I'll die at 30. :P I never told her I was starting hormones. So it took her a while to figure it out. For a long time it was "oh boy, that cold really did a number on your voice!" But now...

I believe 9 is correct, once you do what's inside the brackets, you just go from left to right since division and multiplication are on the same level of operations.

Yep

It appears the answer is debatable.  Some believe that the lack of the "x" between the 2 and the (1+2) implies that you must multiply them together before doing anything else.  Others believe that the "x" is implied when left out.  I'd be interested to see a reputable source on the right way to do it, all I could find was different people's answers on other forums.  And this:

Step 1: (1+2) = 3 (Do it first because it's a parenthetical)
Step 2: 6÷2 = 3 (Always go from left to right)
Step 3: 3*3 = 9 (Putting a parenthetical section directly adjacent to another section means multiplication; and we are again going left to right)

The answer is 9. Trust me, I won a State Math Championship in my younger years. Remember, it's not Multiplication THEN Division, it's Multiplication AND Division.

Hm, then it would appear that what I learned in school was wrong. Because if you had, say, 6 / 2x, you would always multiply 2 by the value of x first. My tests were always marked correctly when I did it that way.

It is correct to do it that way IF the question is posed as a fraction with 6 as the numerator and 2x as the denominator because you solve the top separately from the bottom and then divide but in the form that the original question is posted, you don't look at it as the part left of the division symbol as the numerator and the part right of the division symbol as the denominator

From the confusion over this question, it seems clear that the mathematical phrasing is ambiguous.  Some see it one way, some see it the other.

The decent solution would be to phrase the equation in a less ambiguous manner with the use of additional parentheses.

Today 's been Damn weird.

Ok, let's start with the morning. Nearly had a heart attack upon seeing my bank account after waking up and ran in guy mode to fix it. No make up, unshaven, etc (At least I put a bra)... Kinda ok about it. With the heatwave, I don't like to waste good girl's clothing sweating all the time.
Anyways, I have the meeting for the Napo Consortium ready (Napo (http://www.napofilm.net/en) is a mascot shared between several safety at work organisations), and the videoconference system up and running, when the phone starts ringing, and I am greeted by a weird mixture of english and italian. I can understand them, but they can't do the same... They are asking for Jorge. After that they as for Jordi, Giorgio... "Madam, we would like to talk with Jorge or XXXXX, the support technicians." And I was like..... WTF? "I'm Jorge, the helpdesk tech". I was close to saying "I'm a guy", but that was pretty much impossible (My legal name is in the conferencing documents). I was not exactly happy, and more like perplexed. I was not trying to do something with my voice. I was talking as usual, and particularly sore and in need of water.

I want to be happy about it, but every time something like this happens I blame the "mishap" in other thing. It's true that I have little resonance left and I am slightly higher in pitch than a normal male, but little else.


And well, for seconds... While going home I came across a guy that looked exactly like Mr Proper... Mr Proper in a stretch top and a mini pencil skirt. My first thought: [i["Mmmm.... A more open skirt would fit him/her much better... But damn, I want that skirt"[/i]

I have this facial hair that I want so badly to take care of, I've never worked on my voice and ... well, okay, my arms do look smaller.  I've waited so long for this animosity and now that I have it, it's surreal. Like experienceing my own personal episode of quantum leap. And it has hit me that when I chat with the women I work with, I can't fit in because I didnt have a lot of the same experiences. And I think I have that taken care of, as far as explaining why I am the way I am thanks to my Army Brat status.
but honestly, I feel like I am back to square one because I am pre-op. Now I am back to keeping this secret because if anyone finds out I was born male bodied.... you get the picture. Being trans just wears me out mentally and emotionally.

I still have no clue how in the world no one has asked me if I am transgender at work. I am passing just fine and I shouldnt look a gift horse in the mouth, but I think I look like crap. I have this facial hair that I want so badly to take care of, I've never worked on my voice and ... well, okay, my arms do look smaller.  I've waited so long for this animosity and now that I have it, it's surreal. Like experienceing my own personal episode of quantum leap. And it has hit me that when I chat with the women I work with, I can't fit in because I didnt have a lot of the same experiences. And I think I have that taken care of, as far as explaining why I am the way I am thanks to my Army Brat status.
but honestly, I feel like I am back to square one because I am pre-op. Now I am back to keeping this secret because if anyone finds out I was born male bodied.... you get the picture. Being trans just wears me out mentally and emotionally.

and I miss Caleb.

There's a lot of diversity amongst women as well. It may not seem that way with the women at work talking about particular things, i.e. motherhood. Chances are there a lot of women who would enter those conversations and think "WTF? Why are we talking about this? Whaaat?" Lol. I mean, I can tell you a few profs hands down who would think talking about the stuff the women at your job do is weird.

And I miss you too. :( I was thinking about it last night actually. I hate that I can't just come down and see you whenever. Like spontaneously.

I would love to. I know Serbian and in Serbian, we use dual alphabets. It can get confusing as obe letter looks like one letter in one alphabet, but that can also look like a letter from the other one which has a different sound. We have a Latin based as well as Cyrillic based Alphabet. I am still learning, I have only been studying for like 16ish months.

Right now what I am thinking is that I am very happy from the response I got from my father after I showed him a picture of me all dressed up for the first time. I showed him the same one that I currently have for my profile picture.

Do you ever have times where something annoys you for no apparent reason? There's absolutely no logic to it, and no immediately apparent reason why you should be annoyed. But you are, and the more you think about it, the more it annoys you?

Ehh, I don't know what to attribute it to. I think I need a hot bath. With bubbles. And candles.

Why, frogs and snails and puppy dog tails of course.

Seriously though, I haven't heard of anyone ingesting testosterone.  I know its possible, but not usually recommended for its effects on the liver.  Most go for injections

I wonder if anyone else gets suspicious of people who claim to be "weird" or "different." Aside from the fact that everyone claims the same thing, most of the people I've met who claim that have a tendency to lie. Constantly. Plus, they eventually try to treat me as inferior which I simply don't stand for.
(Oh and I know I sound like a hypocrite since I also claim to be different and people think I'm lying same as everyone else. They tend to get hostile when they find out I was telling the truth. Not that anyone ever believes me. After all, who would actually believe a freak who tells the truth over a more charismatic liar?)

Depends if your bro is a nice guy or not. If he knew you were trans would he still tell you you look like a girl? Or would he tell you you look like a boy because that would be the new way to upset you about your appearance?

I'm sitting about ten miles south-er than you, pal.
Yeah! You get what I'm talking about. Or there are the people (who, as far as I know, have not ever been in the mental health system) who claim to be "crazy" and make it out to be a good thing.

I don't even feel like finishing the review but I am going to do so.  They posted their first chapter on the same day I did mine (actually I posted after them without knowing) but it's my favorite yuri pairing which is hard to find stories with them in it anymore.  It is my duty to review because as a writer myself, I know that the reviews I get from my fans keep me going.

No worries Kristal. I don't like bacon either and find the smell of pork cooking to be nauseating.  In fact, I was in my forties before I found out that people think KFC has an appetizing smell, to me, it is worse than the paper mills.  To each their own.

Fun fact! Cooking pork smells exactly like cooking human. And I do mean EXACTLY.

I have a strange definition of the word fun...

I could go for some human bacon.  As long as no humans were harmed solely for the purpose of consumption and it went along with the wishes of the person being consumed.

I made a vlog for myself, and I noticed when I get into "theory mode" I use waaaay more feminine voice cues. And it offsets a lot of my voice deepening from T. I can see some people reading it as a female voice, especially when I am say, teaching because again I use my "theory mode" voice.

So yeah. I need to do some work on it. Problem is, I don't know where to start. I get less forceful in my speech when I am "thinking", because I am posing questions - so I have that "questioning" inflection that is associated with women's voices. That would probably be the best place to start. I could do that in my classes by preparing far enough in advance that I say things as if they are being asked more authoritatively. Chances are that would solve the lack of monotone too, because I only really raise my voice when I am questioning.

And those goddamn S's.

So many cis women speak from high in their throat rather than from their chest or diaphragm and with every sentence having a question mark at the end of it. If you can avoid that tendency then the rest should fall into place. You might even pose a question in the same manner as if it was a fact, try it and see how that works for you. Another thing is that those high squeeky voices that I'm referring to are sometimes even put on as if they are trying to emulate Kim K whom I loathe and so I find it extremely irritating on a personal level.  :icon_ballbounce:

I think I will. The good news is that for me, it just requires being a bit more selective in what I share academically. I'm used to sort of diving into discussions unprepared and tossing around ideas (hence, the tendency to sound questioning - not that I am lacking confidence in my knowledge, I just pose questions to keep the topic going). So I think if I just prepare some things and keep them in mind, I can limit the "questioning" sounds.

My room looks like a tornado went through it...minus the damaged walls and furniture. -_- I set a 5 minute timer and just forced myself to clear out as much of a large area as possible in the 5 minute time frame. Worked well enough but there's probably going to be a few more installments of 5 minute speed cleanings. My short attention span is starting to worry me. When I was young, I could concentrate on anything for hours - even the most rote, mundane things imaginable. I just got sucked in. Now, it's all I can do to stay focussed long enough to even brush my teeth.

Get a desk fan, run it all over your apartment. With any luck the movement of air will cause the harmonica to make a noise. ;D

I was thinking about how before T, I wasn't really...excited for body hair lol. I knew I'd be hairy. And I am. But the funny thing is, I feel very content about it. It feels natural and right. Even when I think "god, if I ever decide to manscape this is going to be a b*"

I've also come to wonder about radfems. I find that they describe rape *very* graphically. They use really brutal language. One could argue, I suppose, that they are trying to avoid "sugarcoating" it. But I find it kind of dehumanizing to the victim they are describing and...well just in such poor taste. Rape is a slap in the face to humanity, one would think that those who claim to love women the most would be more conscientious of their word choices.

I made a deal with my parents to cut my hair, on the condition that they buy me something expensive and I get to keep it long. (I know that sounds weird and spoiled, but my mother is psycho and desperate like that)

At first I was distraught, she cut off most of the bottom portion, that's 2 and a half years worth of growing it out and I only have an inch or two left! However I found the top part still has plenty of length, almost 2 years worth (10 inches), so I'm getting over it. It's more even now as well, so I'll probably like the results more after I grow it out again.

Idk why they perfer my new hairstyle though. It looks very feminine, especially compared to my old, shaggy and lazy hairstyle. Whatever. It's still very uneven though, as I didn't get it finished. I can't bear the thought of cutting any more of it, at least until it grows out more.

IT was around that time coming home to watch toonami that basically saved my life.  I was a very depressed teenager and coming home to watch those was my escape.  I recorded a bunch of episodes so that even when shows like Gundam Wing went off the air I watched my tapes and Endless Waltz (the movie) over and over.


On a side note, this just happened:

My husband is special.
He comes in and looks at me with a sad face and kinda whimpers as he goes "S..Sarah?"
I said, "Yea?"
He goes, "It's my ramen... I don't think I can eat it cause it's full of peeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeas."

On saturday I went to the neighbourhood's bakery to buy bread, and the shoopkeeper was like "Why are you dressed like a man? damn, you are confusing me!"

So today, that I have gone back to female after a week of almost considering detransioning, I went to the bakery just for her to saw me. "¿Now a woman? You need to decide one an for all, I don't know how to adress you!".

Obviously laughing at all of this, but she has a point. Today is the first time my boss sees me as a woman, and... "I'm bit disappointed, you almost look like you are wearing boy's clothes (Leggings, long shirt, hoddie and converse all starts). I'd had hoped to at least see you in heels".



I was close to replying 1) I really want to use these combination 2)When I went out it was 14 degrees, and 3) I'm not walking 25 minutes uphill on 9-11 cm wedges, You want to see me, you pay me the train fare (Which is the only one incompatible with my multi transit system card (Metro, railroad, city bus, province bus, regional train, mountain lifts, etc).

Still, I'm saving the dress for tomorrow. A friend had a daughter a week ago, and tomorrow I will be able to see her. Youk now the worst part? Oestrogen and babies, that's the last thing I wanted to appear in my battered brain?

Seriously? It's the third thing I throw away after arriving home (1- hair extensions, 2-footwear , 3-Gaff). Despite being made in antibacterial cloth, I'd preffer to conserve it as much as possible since I only have one, and I need to make it last at least two days before washing it. I just ordered my second one from Thebreastform store, although I saw this too: http://www.ebay.es/itm/Gaff-Tuck-Underwear-Pantie-Thong-Shapewear-Panty-->-bleeped-<--Drag-Lingerie-/111181007761?pt=US_Shapewear&var&hash=item19e2e78b91&_uhb=1

I live in Iowa and our water is VERY chlorinated.  When I go visit my cousins who drink well water sent through a softener my dad and I get sick.  Our bodies can't handle it.  Same thing happens when they try and drink our water. 

When I worked at a hotel my new manager had moved here from I-can't-remember-where and had an allergy to chlorine and every time she would take a shower her poor eyes would be bloodshot and her skin itchy.

I was over at my parents house eating a quick dinner before we went to my nieces soccer game. Being a totally innocent child she bluntly asks me if I'm a girl. My parents weren't in the same room as me when she asked and I didn't tell her anything. Made me feel good and bad at the same time but it has go me thinking what's going on with my family as she has never asked me this before. Usually the only times she asks questions is if she's heard others asking them so now the gears in my mind are spinning and I need to re re re re re read my coming out letter again to see if there's anything I want to change in it or add in more.

It could be that she's perceptive. Kids pick up on these things faster than adults do, as they don't have decades of gender conditioning to rely on.

On a related note, I think at least one of my brothers knows I'm trans. He's been dropping a lot of jokes about me being a girl, far more than he ever did. Curiouser and curiouser...

Ugh, I'm bored waiting for my hair to grow. I like the direction it's taking but it will need to be fixed severely when it gets longer. I still have 2 years worth of growth on the top of my head, the hair that grows out the bottom of my scalp on the back of my neck was for the most part, completely cut off. I was scared to do it at first but I think it'll be good for it in the long run, it'll now grow along with my top hair as an extra layer, and thus it won't curl fracking stupidly like it did when it was by itself, I think! :D Ugh, I'm so OCD about the uneven parts but I won't dare cut ANYTHING until my hair gets some growth back! >:( In the mean time I think I'll consider a wig, mah dream hair isn't coming for 3 years at least. -.-" (2 if you don't count the uneven chunk that needs to go) I was looking at some really cute ones on Amazon, ugh I hope they're not too uncomfortable.

Also, it seems to me that people are too hard and judgemental about teen pregnancy. I know it's a problem but it seems like this taboo encourages people to treat pregnant teenagers like horrible, stupid whores who will give their baby a horrible upbringing. It all seems blown out of proportion; these girls shouldn't be judged by their mistake, and having a teenage mother isn't the absolute worst upbringing that you can have.

I know.  Some of my friends that aren't on this site but trans I suddenly won't hear from for weeks and I get really worried.  I just finally talked to one of my friends the other day, came to find out her ex ODed (he was cis) and I didn't know.  I worry about her all the time but I can't do anything for her because I live 3 hours away.  I'm not really financially able to go visit her, and she isn't able to visit here for the same reason.  It's hard.  All of us connected with the internet, which is a beautiful thing, but when the other person really needs someone there all you can do is wish and try and be there for them as best you can.  It's heartbreaking, and even though I don't know a lot of people in the community it is still sad. 

Some people don't understand that just because you don't meet someone face to face doesn't mean their death means less.  When I found out my friend Nicolas died, no one had told me.  He had been dead for 2 weeks and no one had told me.  I took it really hard, because it was sudden (he died of a sudden heart attack) and I never got to say goodbye.  In some ways, I feel it is harder when someone you know online dies because you don't know if they are just busy or if something has happened.  And even if you find out they died, you can't do anything.  I couldn't go to his funeral.  I talk to his brother every once in a while, but I don't have any closure.  I had to bury it deep because I was irritating people as I mourned.  They didn't understand that just because I had never met him didn't lessen his worth to me.  I cherish the people that I allow to get into my bubble.  I had shared with him many things, he had helped me get over my friend's death. (This friend I had known since high school and died after he moved back to Russia.)

I bet were bigger than you think, sure the amount of people that post is small but look at all of the guests who are online at any time. I think about them when I post as I know what it was like when I was just a guest coming here looking for words of advice to help me though my own troubled times that kept me living because of the ones that do post and open up with their own issues that you can relate to or often share the exact same problems.

Just did a daily seven (though I switched it up using weights) on an 8 count.  Taking a mini break before I jump into it again.  Even on an 8 count my heart was racing but I'm going to try and do two daily sevens in the morning as a warm up, bar that time of the month.  Gosh doing those daily sevens takes me back to JROTC.  I wish I had the stamina to actually join the millitary.  Maybe with enough training and exercise, but now I just want to lose some weight.  Oh well let me get back into my second daily seven before I get too lazy to do so.  HOORAH!

EDIT:

I hurt the crease of my foot trying to do bend and thrusts in such a small space.  Couldn't go past the 3 count sadly.  Flt bad about it but I continued on with the weights.  Can't believe I'm starting to sweat in only ten minutes!  That's it for my warm-up today.  If I have the willpower I'll be up at 12 noon to get into the real exercises on my PS Move.  I need to call my college and ask about a transcript.

You probably would not believe me if I told you that one week ago I used a can opener for the first time in my life.... The pull tab broke and I had to use the one included in my victorinox... An interesting experience.




So far, three consecutive days is the maximum I have been able to keep in female mode without reverting to male for one motive or another. If tomorrow I can keep it up, it will be a new milestone for me, and hoping the full time is closer. So yep, I'm damn nervous about tomorrow. I stopped the movie I was watching to put a washing machine, and after it I'm gonna shave everything (included where the light does not reach, somebody mention "sexy butt" and I'm red thinking on the current amount of hair since the weather got colder and I stopped with the dresses). I want no last minute errors tomorrow that force me to revert...

Damn, I knew I was forgetting something today. And it was legs day!

Can't wait for getting to the gym tomorrow. Since It is my first week after a long period without training, I'm only going half of the days, but I use to reinforce a bit in the Evening. Evening I spent ripping this single to flac:

I'm betting one chupa-chup's that's Mauro Entrialgo's hand in the photo. Best thing is that since he seems to be living in the same province as me, shipping costs for the vinyls are really cheap.

Getting an education is VERY important in life. You don't want to go thorough life not having those few piece's of paper that says you did this and that as employers want to see that you follow things through and are worthy of being hired. I had a few friends that dropped out and they never could get ahead because of it. I know it seems like the best option especially if your school life is in a terrible place but really stick it out and get that diploma!

Was at the college today and say a guy who was in my NJROTC squad at since.  He was a freshman at the time and I was a senior, second in command.  I know he saw me walk through but he just kept his eyes to the left like he was looking at something.  I never seen someone stare at the walls and doors so hard. I find it a little offensive that he didn't even adknowledge my presence when I tried to get his attention.  Strange, I know his girlfriend and she did the exact same thing to me several months ago.  It's like wtf I was a great squad leader and I honestly gave them more more wiggle room with dismissing my squad in high school.    Now that I think about it.  I went to Mcdonalds with my nephew and saw a girl who was also in my squad working there about a month and a half ago.  She looked it me and took my order, but it was as if she didn't know me, or knew me but didn't adknowledge it.  She looked at me straight in her eyes too so it really wasn't ignoring since at least she did that (compared to the other two that wouldn't), but it was like she had a poker face on.

What the heck?  I was a darn good leader and if anything more lenient that the first-in-command....and nearly every other person who ranked chief and up.

I feel like I'm losing me touch even though I've been out of high school for 3 years now.   To make me feel better, I'm going to say the guy was respecting me so much that he was giving me an "Eyes Left".

That's right, I still got it.

That sounds really quite creepy and may be what some people do to street people by looking through them or looking past them to act as if they are not there. Maybe they picked up on your trans status and can't deal with it? In any event it's their crappy attitude and they will have to live with it not you because you have moved on with your life. ((Hugs))

I keep my bottle of T at the doctor's because I get my injection there...I guess somebody lost it. So I had to go buy a new bottle and come back. I felt really bad for the woman who was meant to give the injection though, she said "I feel so bad! I try so hard to be diligent and I lost it!" Which of course made me feel terrible, lol, because I wasn't angry and I wouldn't want her to feel guilty! Everyone makes mistakes sometimes, and it was almost time for me to have a new bottle anyway.

The way I'm interpreting it, is either she's glad you're not dealing with this while still in the Navy, or she doesn't like the idea of this.

She's got something to say to the world
Looking back at my life, this was all that I wanted
Ain't no more sunshine, just rain and cold suffering
I'm a lineman for the county and I drive the main road
Let me know that I've done wrong
I ain't Mr Right, I'm Mr Right Now
I wanna live like a wildflower
It is the passion flowing right on through your veins
Can you hear them? They talk about us
Go on, go on, leave me breathless

It didn't turn out too bad!! LOL

The only reason I didn't choose that one was that I didn't like the idea of a Pikachu always following me around. In fact, I got rid of the starter Pokémon as soon as I could. I don't even remember which one it was. I do remember that my favourite one was Jynx. Although in Blue, you could only get that through trading with an NPC (since I didn't have any friends, lol). And it was named something dumb.

I don't know who I want. I think I want Fennekin. Looking at what some people have said, type advantages shouldn't really be an issue as you can catch the three monkeys early in the game and also get to choose between Bulbasaur, Charmander, and Squirtle. GRWELKJS I WANT IT DAMN YOU WALMART. -_- I could take the bus around the city but on Saturday that's a several hour trip...

What did you do Malachite? lol

I jacked some woman's car....and she was an NPC -_-

It's not even like the car was a fancy one to begin with.




I'm thinknig about Las Vegas and casinos and white tigers.  I wouldn't gamble but it would be nice to visit there and to make myself feel like a fancy person.

I'm thinking about the dream I had last Sunday morning.  I had gotten so many lap dances in GTA V that I started dreaming about them.  The lady kept moving around so fast I got dizzy.  I loved it! 



Now I'm randomly thinking about a low carb cheesecake and while I was thinking about that, someone gunned me down while I was walking out of the GTA V strip club.....lol I shut the PS3 down again so I wouldn't get a medical bill and I had just put all my money into the bank so the jokes on them HAHAHAHA!

Now I'm thinking about a red bird.

I was still stuck in my depressive funk for a good chunk of the day. But it faded away after awhile. I had to work at it but part of it was due to the fact that today was my cousin's wedding day and I felt that it would be unfair to her to say anything about my stupid crap. As the afternoon went on I felt better since everyone was in a good mood and it helped lift my spirits a bit. It was a nice ceremony. My cousin had this silly grin on her face the whole time and I couldn't help but smile at that.

The reception was pretty fun but i did miss the fact that I couldn't drink anything that had alcohol in it due to it interacting in a bad way with my meds...oh well. At the end of the night I sang "Edge Of The World" by Faith No More. I was decent but I would have sounded better if I had warmed up my voice properly and used my own mic instead of that SM58 but oh well it was still cool. I threw in a few Grindcore growls and screeches plus some microphonic feedback just to mess around. It was amusing.

Damn I need to go to another room and close the door if I want to have some privacy from the kitten here... She's really taken a liking to me which kinda amuses me considering she's a Maine Coon and that breed's one characteristic is to choose one member of the family which they will basically adore... The funny part is that I'm not gonna see that cat very often so if she picks me... Lulz. I bet Mom would be so jealous.

Glad you're feeling better hon, my advice to everyone having depression has always "Change the tape running in your head by getting focused on other positive things," seems like it's working for you! Alcohol drives my bp through the roof inter-reacting with my HRT, kinda tough nuts for someone who likes a few drinks, your situation sounds similar.

Hey Darkie,
          I've been here long enough to see several former Ravens turn the corner from that wimpy self perception, you can do it too hon! Some of it may be attributable to female socialization, familial pressures from siblings and your own perception of societal expectations. This is the place where you learn to shed all of that and be all that you really intend to become. It takes time, introspection and determination, you have our full support here.

I don't have an official will and I have no plans to get one anytime soon but I wondered what would happen to the stuff I have right now and more importantly, my money if I died.  I currently only have a little over $4,000 to my name.  I thought about giving it to my mother for her medical bills and car repairs and groceries etc. but I would be so strict.  I'd tell her that she couldn't use that money to get alcohol and cigerettes or groceries to buy to feed visitors from the church.  It would have to be used for HER good.  Sometime tells me she wouldn't respect my wishes.  She would still use $5 here and there to get a bottle or two and a pack of cigerettes.  She would still go out and buy food to feed people from church on Sundays.  It makes me reconsider.  Heck if I told her (or my sisters) to give the money to this site or even to random guy's top surgery funds, they wouldn't.  I know they wouldn't, based off the whole religious stuff.  If anything, they'd think I would be burning in hell for eternity.  Perhaps it's best that I just hide all of the money so no one can find it.  That profits no one though.  Meh I may just tell them to give it to the animal shelter and be done.  I don't know.

Tomorrow I'm in for a crazy day.

I still haven't  straightened my hair, and I'm starting too look like a mixture of Johnny Deep and Elena Bonham Carter in Sweeney Todd. I just don't want to do it before bed time since it needs some time to set, and after the gym it will take a form again, so I'm going to go out with a rather crazy look.

And after that... Laser day.

On another note, it's nice to draw someone else's character for a change.
Especially when the said character is quite yummy, hnnnngggh.

Can you take in room renters? Several years ago there was a woman here whose plan was to buy house in a major city and renting rooms to other trans women only. She would select one stable, trustworthy individual to be the house mother. It sounded like a great idea but the drama would be more than I could deal with. I hope things pan out for you dear!

I know right! It makes me so happy!! She makes me cake and cleans my apartment when I power nap. Definitely a keeper.

She is going out with a guy for a few hours now, karaoke night.

She has three options:

Tshirt with "I love Bambi" and a big Bambi logo
Tshirt with "Best friends" and Spongebob and Patrick
Tshirt with "Omnomnom" and Cookie Monster

.... casuality is the key!!

PS: Nevermind. She found a 4th tshirt. I was like "so what does that one read?" and she's like "guess" and I'm like "I don't know".. turns out it literally reads GUESS on it. Oh my lord we are laughing so hard.

I'm thinking about buying a PS3 on Black Friday as a back up PS3 if my current one crashes.  I've seem the Gamestop Black Friday ad and they had a good deal on a 250 gig ps3.  Then again, I would like to upgrade to a 500 gig ps3, which seems harder to find at Gamestop. However, for a broke unemployed college graduate trying to save for top surgery, they may not be in my best interest (though if my PS3 goes out, I'll just buy another one anyways). I'll see what happens.

$5 per letter if you post more than 20 times in a day. We call it the "Bonus Expression Package." And it's all for your benefit. Who wouldn't want to pay to post more than they can previously do for free? Also, we're going to remove the letter "a" from all posts, and plan to charge a fee of $15 to be allowed to use it. We're really very proud of that, and we call it the "Grade-A Premium Package."

Oh... wait...

Yeah, sorry... we turned down the affiliation with Capcom.

I had such a nice day, shopping as Francis, new friends & addes some nice dresses to wardrope. Love a new little black dress.

And I set up a new facebook page which is great, no more using my old page, I'll use this from now on to connect & share with friends. That will be great, most of my friends are a very long distance away & we rarely ever can meet face to face.

I hate Capcom with all their disc-locked nonesense.  THQ and EA are just as bad as Capcom and if Ubisoft continues on the path they are on with constantly delaying gamess, they will be on that list too.

Watching the women fight in UFC.  I believe this is my first time watching them.  It's freaking awesome!

Now I'm thinking about Black Friday.


Now I'm thinking about how often some people think about me here.  I know I think about a few people here that I don't really speak to, but their posts stick out to me for some reason.  I wonder if it's like thatwith me.  I wonder if there are some lurkers that will come on here and make sure they look at my posts to see what I have to say.  I know I do that to a certain person in another forum (yeah creepy I know-oh well) so I wonder if that happens to me.  I have a compulsion of thinking highly of myself when in reality it just makes me seem like a D-bag.  I wouldn't doubt it.  I like to think of myself as a king.

I wonder when the Best Buy Black Friday ads will be leaked as well as the Walmart Black Friday ads.

When I click on people's profiles and it says they are sending a message I wonder who they are sending it too and what are they saying.  When someone is posting a new topic, I eagerly await for the topic, even though I my never reply. 

Five minutes went by since I wrote the last post.  A giant wasp came out of nowhere.  I whacked it with a broom but fell and I don't know where it fell and I don't want to check.  I hope it's dead.  Probably not but I hope so.

I wonder how the refs would handle the women fighters if they got cut badly.  Hopefully the same as they would male fighters.

I actually think about you quite a bit too Malachite. I've followed your posts long enough to kinda know what you're like, so, it's easy to think "Malachite would like this" or something.

Funnily enough...I've never seen your face yet I feel like I know what you look like. But in actuality all I know is that you're Black, and the same height as I am.

I think about you all the time, Malachite.  You have a very distinctive voice and you post personally, unabashedly, with detail, and often, which makes it easy for me to picture you in my head and carry you around with me (if I may).  I mean this in a good way.  I'm glad you share your internal monologue with us.

I'm honestly surprised to hear that from you (in a good way) because I know we don't speak that much so that touched me.  I didnt' think my posts were that complex because I don't think of myself as a really engaging person.

We've got a few of those on the MtF side too, some of which do double duty and attack ALL trans people.

I wish my mother would stop bugging me about going back to college.  I made a deal with her....if she gets her associate's degree then I'll get my Bachelors, but I know she's not going to do that.   Why can't she praise my sister who has a freaking masters in divinity and is going back for her PHd?  She acts like she doesn't care about THAT? Why doesn't she tell my near-30 year old brother that he should go back to college?  Granted, he's autistic yeah but that's no excuse because a guy I went to college with was autistic and my brothers very smart so I know he can do it too but nooooo, she wants to focus on ME.  I will say that if I did go back to college, it would be to get my paralegal certificate.  Unlikely though.

Removing the clothing I won't wear again already felt as if somebody had died and I was packing the things of somebody who is not here anymore (not to mention realizing how much I have moved away from my old persona), but the clothes under the bed now?

I feel like this.

I hate wifi. I stick with a wired modem and keep my laptop at home. The only time I have used wi fi is if I am at someone else's place and that is what they use. Then I shake my head at how much of a headache it is.

Oh mine's usually great but recently it's been playing up. I am a bit restless and I tend to move the computer around too much for ethernet.. :laugh: But jah it can be a pain in the place the sun don't shine. As mine kindly demonstrated.

Impressed by people daring to clean out their wardrobes. I'm pretty sure someone could hide a body in mine and it would take a couple of years before anyone noticed.

I never did that. I just tossed all of my old clothes out. Most of it was so worn out (especially my death metal shirts) that there was no point in keeping them.


That's the problem. I care a lot for my clothing, and most of it is in perfect condition. I still have some attachment to a few T-Shirts (Which are in a separate box), but for the rest I need to find where is the closest donation centre, or ask friends...

But heck, is a dilemma. I don't like getting rid of expensive clothing, but at the same time I see it a temptation of going back to effeminate boy mode. Although at the current status, butch woman could be the closest result.

I think that's very considerate of you, to think of others that might benefit from clothes you may not need anymore.
And who knows, the recipient might be a trans guy and everything will come full circle! :)

So in our municipal election, people are apparently allowed to have nicknames. One guy marketed himself as a school board trustee as "*girl's* Dad". In other words, his entire foundation for his campaign strategy was being a father. We also have a law that says you can't have any campaigning or endorsements for any candidate close to a voting station. Well, RIGHT on the ballot, he has his real name, and then in brackets "girl's Dad".

That's undemocratic! It's campaigning not just near the voting station, but on the actual ballot! I'm appalled that this was allowed to take place. People use "family" to appeal to people's interests - he established himself as a "family man" from day one, and labelling himself that way on the ballot is just another form of political marketing. There are people who are going to think "right! The dad! Wow, he is really committed to family values, I want that person on the board."

It's unfair. I'm seriously considering consulting the city.

The fact that that would have an effect on someone's vote is one of the many reasons democracy, as it is, is not the way to get the person that represents the people into office.  People who cannot think on their own should not vote, they're not even helping themselves except maybe by chance.

What's the solution?  One idea, have everyone vote on specific issues giving weighted values to each based on importance to the voter.  Those issues then become decided upon until the next election.  As to who runs the country the rest of the time, whoever's stance on said issues is closest to the majority weighted vote wins.  Am I crazy or might it actually work?  Then you're not voting for a face or a party because you like the color of their poster or the mole on the guys face or how many babies he kissed, you're voting for what you actually care about.

Yes, that'd be nice! This Princeton psychologist (his names escapes me along with most useful information) did a study that showed people on the street could pick the winner of an election based on a headshot with something like 75% accuracy. And Scientific American had an article that proposed we can even tell Democrats from Republicans in this way. So who needs to know a politician's platform? I need a leader with good cheekbones!  ;D

I met with my brother today. In a very public place, and with someone close by, just in case.

I don't really know how to feel about the conversation which took place. He was alone. Without Grima Wormtongue (his wife... those who have seen/read Lord Of The Rings may get an idea of why I think of her in that way).

He seemed remorseful. But uncomfortable. I could feel a sort of resentment and borderline hate simmering under the surface. It felt like he would rather be anywhere else. I wonder if he was scared of what I would do, and that's why he agreed to meet me.

I'm thinking I don't know where to go from here. I don't think I can ever forget what he's done, and what I suspect he's done (despite his insistence to the contrary). But I don't know if I can forgive him.

The sad thing is, part of me wants to. He is literally the only blood family I have left. Everyone else is dead. And sometimes I miss that. Silly, I know. But I keep thinking back to when we were kids. I saved his life. Twice. Part of me wants to believe there is still a part of that person left.

The rest of me... is just numb.

I don't know.

My only brother has a controlling, overbearing spouse who has worked feverishly for years at alienating him and isolating him from his family, so I think I get a part of the picture and understand the pain. It's strange how a woman like that can exert so much negative influence on our loved ones that they can themselves become hateful towards us.

I was having similar feelings when it came to my "dad." I wanted to forgive him for all of the abuse (physical, psychological, emotional) over the years and people can change but I also haven't talked to him in over 13 years for a reason. Personally, I decided that he can't be forgiven and that's that.

As for your predicament, I don't know what your brother did but if you don't think you can forgive him and have a relationship with him again, then don't, you're better off without him. As far as blood relatives go, they're really overrated. Then again, my definition of family is "people who you care about and care about you in return." So, the majority of my blood relatives are not my family. The majority of my family are not blood relatives.

All it takes to be a self-righteous ass is to believe you're better than someone else. Anyone who's ever called someone else a "nutjob" or a "loony", or otherwise dismissed their opinion, you're as guilty of this as I am.
Just try to remember, the vast majority of people have well-reasoned, thoughtful opinions that are just as valid and valuable as yours. Even on the things that are life-and-death to you.

Hugs Sephirah.

I'm going through something similar with my brother, also my only remaining family "of old", although I have 2 sons.  I came out to him, and he did most of the PC things.  They were only contrived, not from the heart.  A few weeks later, he was quite stoned and blabbered out a lot of thoughtless, hurtful things.  We later talked about it, and he was apologetic, but never promised to change things, such as quitting the Cannabis, or not calling me when he was stoned.  I forgive him for the past trans*gressions (pun intended) but I'm just not sure about the future.  Like you, I have a lot of history with my brother, that doesn't just disappear and it's so very hard to discard it if that's not necessary.  I won't go through another event like the stoned phone call.  I quit answering him when he calls, we haven't spoken since that day.  (The discussions we've had have been by email).  I miss him.  Perhaps when I have made more progress, have become stronger, and he has settled in on the concept of losing a little brother and gaining a little sister, we can mend the fences.

Thank you very much, Joules.

I sincerely hope your brother reaches a point where he can accept the reality of who you are, and see you for yourself rather than the image he has of you. It is hard sometimes to trust those who have hurt us. Doubly so if it is those we thought never would. I don't think you have to change yourself more though. I think the changes have to be made by your brother. Rather than you becoming stronger, I think he has to become more... understanding. I sincerely hope that time facilitates that, and you reach a point where you can have a meaningful relationship with him again.

Thank you, sweetie. My brother has enacted physical violence against me in the past, and I suspect orchestrated something much worse. I cannot prove anything, and the only evidence I have is circumstantial at best, so I don't speak about it here.

Your experience sounds very similar to mine. His wife seems to control everything he does, says and thinks. I was not allowed to see my niece and nephew because she deemed I would be a danger to them. That they might "catch what I have". I haven't seen either since they were born. That hurts, if I'm honest. But I try not to think about it.

Being that I am the only family from his side that he has left, too, it wasn't so hard to isolate him. He is so eager to be loved that he has willingly thrown himself into her, and her family. The family he never had. For that I cannot blame her. She gave him what he wanted. I cannot blame him for wanting that, either. Everyone wants to be loved, I guess.

There were times I hoped she would linger in the depths of Tartarus. I have a dark side which no one here ever sees. One which... yeah, better not to speak of it. It's something I have to forcibly control sometimes. Nevertheless, my pillow has often been the sole witness to the tears, the hurt, the anger. But none of that changes anything. It won't change who they are, how they act. So in the end, there is just sadness for things lost.

...

I hope that your brother reaches a point where he can see what's really important. And that you can have a relationship again, if that's what you want. *hugs*

As for your predicament, I don't know what your brother did but if you don't think you can forgive him and have a relationship with him again, then don't, you're better off without him. As far as blood relatives go, they're really overrated. Then again, my definition of family is "people who you care about and care about you in return." So, the majority of my blood relatives are not my family. The majority of my family are not blood relatives.

Thank you very much, Amy. A big part of me knows that you're totally right. That I should move on. Fill my life with other things. Meaningful ones. Other people, too. Ones I can have a relationship with.

I just... I don't know... I guess I just feel lonely sometimes. Isolated. Afraid of the future and wanting to not... hmm... it doesn't matter. I guess sometimes my humanity asserts itself in ways which I don't quite know how to deal with. Sometimes even I get scared, and feel like curling up into a ball of tears in the corner.

Sorry, I didn't mean to talk about myself so much.

Again, thank you, all of you. :)

Of course I'm right. When have you ever known me to be wrong... WAIT... DON'T ANSWER THAT! ;)

If you'd just stop being stubborn and move to where I am then you'd never be lonely again. We could even be roommates. Though, just a word of warning if you take me up on that, you will be HUGGED every day. ;)

I love ya Sis, I just want you to be happy. :)

Well dang if I'm going to shell out $10 for Vice City, $15 for Marvel vs Capcom and $15 for Marvel vs Capcom 2 on the PSN the I might as well buy the discs.  I regret trading in my Marvel vs Capcom game.  I should have taken it as a warning when the man at the counter of Play N Trade nearly drooled at it.  Oh well, even during my senior year in high school I was a novice gamer that didn't understand the value of games.  If it's any consolation to me, at least that game's sound started dying so I don't feel like a total sucker.  I just have to wait until I get a job and have secured my top surgery funding to start rebuilding my collection.  I'm thinking after that and my trip to Anime Expo I should be able to buy the games online in 3 or 4 years.

I had that done awhile back. The recovery sucked. Hell, the recovery from my orchi was much more bearable by comparison. I remember the first time I had a sneezing fit once I was recovering. That hurt like hell. Imagine someone shoving a Ginsu knife down your throat and yanking back out and then that repeating 5 times in a minute.

It was not fun at all.

I was sooooo sick of that stuff by the end of it. Nothing but that crap for two weeks.

UGH!!

I still cringe when I see yogurt or pudding cups at the grocery store. I don't mind a single rare ice cream treat, though. But I have never bought a half gallon of ice cream since the recovery period.

Doing an honest self inventory is always a part of the program for us. Personally I think you look more feminine than you give yourself credit for, and I like what I see as a person beyond the external wrappings, that is much more important in determining who you are and how well you pass now and in the future.

It won't always be like that, hon. When you get to a point where you can strike out on your own, then you can go and make your place in the world, instead of trying to fit into the place which is already there. I know it's hard sometimes. Feeling isolated really sucks. You just have to believe that you're worth enough, and strong enough to find what you want in life, and make it your own, rather than hoping it finds you.

I think you are.

No. Scratch that. I know you are.

It won't always be like that, hon. When you get to a point where you can strike out on your own, then you can go and make your place in the world, instead of trying to fit into the place which is already there. I know it's hard sometimes. Feeling isolated really sucks. You just have to believe that you're worth enough, and strong enough to find what you want in life, and make it your own, rather than hoping it finds you.

I think you are.

No. Scratch that. I know you are.

But that point seems like it will never come :/

Apple Sprout,
I'm with Shantel. I really want to know why you iron your hair when you look so much better with curls?


Who knows:

- With curly hair all of my forehead up to the hairline gets exposed as the hours passes and over curls. And in the ends it makes me look manlier, plus showing the temples all the time
- Mi hair extension is straight, and it's quite crucial in helping me pass
- My level of culr and frizz can be so strong that I pull my hair when brushing
- Love having a long straight ponytail at the gym.

- Last time I did not straighten it I was gendered as male.

Ergo no. Ther is zero chance of seein me with curly hair again. In fact, it really gets my dysphoric. And I've wished for long straight hair all of my life.

I don't know what to get this time around. I thought of getting the remaining Sims 2 expansions, but nah, i am sick of it again. It depresses me.
Maybe another Beatles album for my collection, maybe some Deep Purple. They never seem to have anything by Manfred Mann's Earth Band though. If they had the first Janis Joplin album, i'd spring for it too. I wish i had the Beatles "Past Masters Vol.1&2".

Yes, this is what i am actually thinking.

I missed a bunch of chem classes due to my son's various appointments and now I have no clue what's going on.
My doctor still hasn't called me like she told me she was going to. I need my next shot of T on wednesday. I understand she's busy, but if she can't take the time to do what she told me she would, then she shouldn't have told me she would.
I want to emulate Izaya Orihara from Drrr!! He doesn't angst like a whiny little b. about being alone.
But that leads me to another realization. Izaya has fun messing with people. I can't think of anything I have fun doing. Gorrammit. I may be going through a depressed patch again.

That sucks, if you have some equity perhaps you can get a small loan to cover monthly until you're back in business? Perhaps your mom might consider something like that?

Been watching Periodic Videos channel in YouTube for couple days and remembered how much I liked chemistry in school. Too bad my mental health blew my chances of getting educated more on the subject when I started upper secondary school (went there for measily half of the school year before my panic attacks ruined everything) and the physics/chemistry combo equivalent of vocational school was a sad joke and focused more on physics which I happen to dislike greatly. >_>

Oh no, she was nice, but I shouldn't have rushed coming out as I did; I should've went at my own pace. I don't feel like I got anything out of it other than having someone to vent to for awhile, and when I look back it sometimes feels a little traumatizing knowing that someone in the world knows my dirty little secrets.

Got my 401 statement in the mail and prior to the end of September, it was actually doing well and had a good return. Hope all this recent crap hasn't hurt it too much.

They spread the risk over a huge investment field, you should be OK. Generally if they take a dip they come back in time since it's a long term investment package, you shouldn't panic.

Oh, I'm not panicing, just curious about how the next statement will look.

I think my mom's more lenient with my brother partly because he's male, despite his autism.  I bet if he told mother he was going to buy a moped, she wouldn't put up much of a fight, but when I say I want to get one out of my own pocket, she doesn't want me to.

Which leads me to my next blog thread....



I really wish Call of Duty: Ghost came with a preorder bonus of the Ghost Mask.  I would wear the heck out of that thing combined with a beret.  I wear glasses but I'd make them fit somehow.  I wish I owned a red millitary beret so I could feel strong and powerful.  I should buy one and then have a custom emblem made on it....probably a crescent moon symbol combined with the Mars symbol.

- Is like an UFC match when they start doing grapples...

- What? What's that tiny high pitched voice? Even he has better voice than me?  :'(

Yeah, people who think gay male sex is feminine have likely never seen it. It super masculine because it's TWICE THE MANMEAT!

I'm learning more about the silly little handheld scanner we use for checking in vendors. My boss had a problem with it and I went in and fixed it and then checked in the rest of the vendors while I was there and then helped her make changes in the invoices/pricebooks to get things balanced out so the main office will be happy. Its all only minimally better than just entering the whole invoice manually. Still more work than it ought to be.

I think whenever my sisters and mom questions my sexuality and if I like girls then I will be honest and say I do....then naturally I'll have to say I'm not a lesbian but trans.

This leads me into the next thought that would send me into a mindbend.  What if I start pointing to some of the small evidence as a child to  my mom and sisters that I've always felt different and they start acting like they don't remember.  I remember coming out to the oldest sister about a year ago and I asked her did she remember us having a conversation when I was in the 5th grade that I told her that I hated being a girl and that I am going to get surgery to make me a boy (before I knew that actually had GRS) and she said no she didn't remember.  Now, that was almost 8 years ago so she probably doesn't remember but I remember so clearly for obvious reasons.  However, what if it was like that for ALL three of them and they all seem to magically forget?  And I start dishing out small evidences left and right and it just seems to not register with them even though I know they should remember some.


Arrrrrgh!  How could that NOT annoy someone?  Luckily, something tells me that they won't be THAT ignorant.  They already suspect/know I like women and heck my mom already knows that I *want* to be a man once I told her I was going to get a hysterectomy.  Heck the oldest sister knows I'm trans though she doesn't accept/believe it.  Now it's just the second oldest sister to come out to and I'm sure she knows somethings up.  At this point I would just have to really make it *official official* and tell them my plans of a partial transition....which I honestly don't know how I can pull that off without them thinking I'm not really committed to it, but that's really my problem and not theirs.  I don't need to come out to my brother since we don't even have a relationship because he wants nothing to do with me.  At one point he told me that he would rather be shot by a terrorist than to have lunch with me.  I would a more fufilling conversation out of my wall than him and I'm not even joking.  Surprisingly, I think it would be HIM that takes my transition the best because he just doesn't give a crap about me.

The first part is probably sufficient and plenty of information for them to absorb and no doubt when it sinks in they will present the questions they need answered. Meanwhile I'd forget the entire mindbend thoughts and realize from the experiences of so many others here that they will no doubt suddenly lose all memory of any such conversations rather than having to deal with what you're saying.

And that's the scary part.  Though logic and reasoning behind past experiences is a reasonable basis to dismiss this concern, there still is that great chance that they they will just dump all logic and reasoning out the window and replace it with nothing but religion as an excuse.  I know that happened with my oldest sister.  I kept trying to say that there are doctors and psychiatrists and therapists and physcologists and documented medical evidence ->-bleeped-<- but she dismisses ALL of it because it's "secular".  I mean, how does one even combat that?  They can't.  I could also point out that for me personally it could be genetic since my brother has autism.  My mom had both of my sisters has the same father, but he isn't my brother and I's father.  The worse they got was eczema from him, but with my father, we got a whole sclew of medical conditions and risks.  It's very possible I could have picked up ->-bleeped-<- from him too.  I feel like I'm going to be in court when I face them with tons of evidence, but no matter what I throw at them, the evidence will be inadmissible and no matter how well I will prepare my case, I'm going to lose.  I will be charged as guilty by a jury of my peers....and the peers ARE the judges.

I mentioned in my blog about one of my sisters in particular and how she will probably to "fish" out the past and shes going to  play the "well you were bullied when you were young and and your father was never there so that's why you feel this way" card while my other sister brings out the "molestation" card.  I can guarantee you that "evidence" will be admissible.

Sorry, I didn't mean for that to get so long lol, but I will say this: Well, if we are going to go fishing....I might as well put on my fishing hat.

A good attitude is always a winner! I'm a Christian and have dealt with some of the extreme views that really just come more from personal bias's than anything else, so I know what you're up against. You may eventually have to cut and run from the family for awhile when you get into the real nuts and bolts of your transition just for your own sanity. I had to give my mom and sis the boot for ten years but it's all good now. So we do whatever it takes!

And I agree about the personal bias.  I know they would want to (or at least "claim" to) go to the Bible as the final authority on my transition and I'm prepared to do that as a Christian as well.  I think once they find out that the Bible doesn't have too much to say about ->-bleeped-<- (aside from the eunuchs) then that's where the personal bias will really come out.  I wondering if it's possible that they will ever accept me as a brother/son or will they reconsider their stance if they saw I was serious about leaving and x-ing them out of my life if they didn't get on board.  Sometimes I feel that this is my mini "Great Tribulation".

I just broke down crying in the shower because I'm covered in hair. It's EVERYWHERE and it won't go away!

I'm better now, though. One day at a time...

I have EXACTLY the same problem as you honey (I used to cry with frustration while I was shaving myself), I have solved it in a way that takes work and a lot of pain but its completely worth it as I am smooth as the day I was born. If you can take the pain of going everywhere with an epilator you will feel reborn every time you do it, if I want to stay totally smooth I have to use it twice a month approximately but really, sounds like it could be a revelation for you.

p.s. epilating your balls takes practise and in my experience a little alcohol first :)

As it gets late I sit here so happy and truly at peace with everything in life for once even after all the horrible times.
I have worked my butt off all year and now have a full month off so don't have to think about it for a while. :)
Had a fantastic client meeting on Thursday which I had 3 client emails thanking me for such a wonderful training session. Never had that before so must have done a good job. Funny what this E has done to my confidence and mind.
I also find myself at total ease with becoming a woman that I always knew I was. Before I was terrified now it has been replace by a calm content feeling as the E has been wonderful, so much better than I could have ever imagined. My doctor was amazed by what she saw when I dropped in last week. I had a huge smile on my face being so happy.
I'm now thinking about my next endo appointment on Monday and what will happen, I think I will ok as he should be able to see what a difference a month has made. I so want an increased dose but will have to wait.

Rambling now but still happy.

Jenny, I can so relate to your comments here! My VA endocrinologist was forever quizzing me, trying to ascertain for certain that I was sure that I wanted to transition MtF and wondered how I preferred to be addressed, and why it was I didn't dress en-femme and wear makeup. He was rather amazed when I told him that one of the primary benefits of female HRT for me was the fact that it eradicated so much of my edginess and agitation from PTSD and whether I become a woman or not is really beside the point and something I consider a beneficial collateral effect. I enjoyed messing with his mind and don't care to have people stick me in a box, but between you and me we know that the reverse order of my comments is really the truth, but the effects on attitude certainly are a plus.

My father is always telling me to save my money.  When it comes to transitioning "nope save your money and just get over it" when it comes to buying driving lessons "nope, you need to save your money".  The list goes on so the other day I finally asked him what am I supposed to save my money for if I can't spend it?  He laughed and told me that I'll figure out when I'm older, but then he said you never know if you will be homeless one day so you might need it then, which is true....TWICE as true for me since I'm trans.

I told my mom that I was going to still buy a moped even when I get a car.  I told her that I'd rather live a short life not living in a box than to live a long boring life but she says "no, I'd rather you live a long boring life instead".

Good luck in both cases.

I'm wondering if I should continue trying to make my Loki costume even though who knows how long that will take or how much I mess up (I've had to make the pants three times now and I still need to do them again) or if I should just give in and buy a costume. The one I'm making is the one in my profile pic. The one I could buy is his outfit from the movies. I'm also wondering if anyone is willing to give me their opinion (hint hint).

Thanks.  I'm going to need it.  I think if you enjoy making the costume you should keep trying.  Me personally I'm just going to buy any cosplay costumes I want but I've heard that people who make theirs have some extra happiness knowing it came from their own hands....even if it's not perfect.

I'm a megalomaniac according to what I read. Welcome to the club.
Hehe. Cat. Hey, what a coincidence. My group in bio is designing a theoretical experiment on orange cats. Most orange cats are male because the allele that codes for orange fur is on the X chromosome and it's codominant.
I'd apologize for being a nerd, but I'm not sorry and wouldn't like anyone who required me to apologize anyway.
That's a good point Malachite. I actually hate making it though. It took me hours each time I redid the pants and they still all turned out unwearable. I did manage to make most of the shirt and the cowl, but it looks horrible. In any case, I decided to try again just because there's another event I could wear it at coming up sooner that the costume for sale would get here.
I need to learn patience and subtlety. Mostly because, at a coming event, someone I despise will be there and I'm not very good at not being antagonistic. I also don't want to avoid going just because she will be there. They were my friends first and she infiltrated them after she went up against me.

Sounds great to me.  At least it was something you created with your hands.  ::)



I'm starting to regret getting therapy, even if it was just 2 sessions.  Don't get me wrong, I love my therapist but at $160 per session, that hurts the wallet, considering I'm going private.  Granted, I used my college money I got back but I miss it since I may need to use it to get a new laptop since mine is acting up....and purchase and extended warrenty.  I have one that runs out at the first month of next year so I'll be sure to cash in on it. 

Luckily, my therapist told me that she would write the letter of reccomendation for top surgery at our next session. She told me to come back to her when I have the funds ready.  That sounds good and fair enough to me considering my situation but that's going to take a loooong time.  Meh, when I get a job things will be a bit better and I can make that money back and then some.  I'm an excellent saver and since I'm living with my mom, I should be able to raise the funds quicker.  It is my plan to fill out this job application and turn in it sometime next week.  I hate having to walk over to my neighboor's house and asking her if it's okay if it's okay if I put her on the application as a reference.

Back then the UW school of genetics was interested in acquiring one, I wouldn't let him go I had him when he was still not weened and his eyes were shut. I was checking the whole litter for gender, the female bottoms on such tiny ones look like an upside down apostrophe while the males look like a colon. I was amazed to see a colon on this little thing and I stuck him in my pocket and took him home, the rest were destroyed at the local animal shelter because they weren't weened and the mother had been smooshed by a car.

I still think back to several months ago when I was riding in the car with my sisters and saw a panhandler and say something along the lines of "I need to do that job so I could pay for my top surgery" and they never heard it.  That just slipped out and I didn't mean to say that but with it being on my mind constantly with my future transition, it just came out.  There was absolutely no response like I hadn't said anything at all, and I wasn't whispering.  I said it at normal range.  Then I immediately changed it to "I MEAN....anime expo...."  Still.....nothing.  They never heard it and I can't wrap my mind around that.  Had they have heard it....it wouldn't have been a pleasent ride home, even though the oldest already knows.

My only explanation: God must have shielded their ears lol.  That's the only thing I can come up with.

I still can't figure it out. Arrrrrrrrgh, Malachite is wanting to bust out of this costume and is wanting to remove the mask.  It's getting harder for him to contain his self around others.  Malachite wants to be free!

Maybe there won't be a middle group eventually. I'm thinking about not too long ago when I got out of the army I worked as a house framer eleven hours a day six days a week for $3.50 an hr. and was relatively rich, had my own furnished apartment, bought a car, had money to blow. My employer sold the three bedroom split level homes with full basement that we were building for $14,950 at was 1968. That same place would cost 300K in this market today, and you couldn't get any kind of hammer & nails worker out of bed for less than $24 and hour here in the PNW.

Meaning middle income group then. I wonder what constitutes middle income these days with the costs of living index and everything going through the roof and raises being mostly nonexistent? Maybe there won't be a middle group eventually.

It kind of makes me wonder how the income demographic will change in the next 20 years.

Funny how some of my tastes alter...before T, I never really cared or noticed if lesbians were kissing on screen. But yesterday, I saw part of My Name is Earl where the hotel maid, Catalina, decides to try becoming a lesbian. She comes into the room that Alyssa Milano's character is hiding in (I LOVE Alyssa Milano, she may be my biggest celeb crush, even more than Katy Perry) and Cataline starts hitting on her and getting close and I got so excited lol. I was like "OMG PLEASE KISS HER." She didn't. But I was surprised. That's not...how I am, lol.

Let's see, from Hellsing there's:

There's one anime my friend likes, Princess Jellyfish. In that one there's:

I'm annoyed that Gamestop is putting so much focus on androids mps3s ipods, ipads, and whatever else sort of fancy gadgets there are like that.  They should keep the focus on console and PC games and if they want to expand, they should start selling older games and consoles again....NOT discontinuing the sales and trading of them.

I wish a Play n Trade would open up right next to our Gamestop.

I used to work at a gamestop. It was fun - we got to 'check out' games and take them home for days at a time.

I completely agree they should start getting back into old cartridges and older systems. I remember even years ago when I worked there, people would snap up the old Nintendo systems when they were traded in. Now they don't take that stuff at all I think.

They are being pushed by the digital content released directly on systems to go into other areas with tech that can be traded in and resold at at full profit - hence the phones and tablet trade ins.

They can't take PC games for trade ins and reselling, unfortunately, because of the serial number.

Yeah it's really sad, especially since they recently discontinued the trade of PS2 games.  I have a feeling that the PSP will be the next one on the chopping block.  I understand they have to make room for the PS4 and Xbox One sales and all but I'm still going to miss it.    Buying the classics digitally just isn't the same as owning the disc.

There are at least a handful I can think of who haven't appeared in a long time but still do put in a show now and then.  Kia, Theo and Misschievous are 3 that come to mind, all with delightful shares when they show.  Guess it's just their style.  There are many other names I remember from when I first started, peeps that I liked and am sad they haven't shown in a very long time.  Guess Susan's isn't such an addiction for all of us (Either way is cool btw).

Oh I'd be willing to bet some visit as "Guest" at times to see if there's anything new. I've been here off and on since Susan's first turned up on the Internet and I often wonder how some people's lives turned out several years down the road, then there's a few that have died that I miss. Susan's Place has an emotionally addictive attraction while at the same time can be a very depressing place when you begin to care for other people and the suffering they go through becomes upsetting.

Smiles are just one of those things that remains lovely even if you don't know what's behind it. My first thought, he was checking you out at the check out line. Sorry I can't help but pun :P

Just watched The Meaning of Life again.  In the beginning when the lady gives birth and then asks if it's a boy or girl, the doctor replies saying that it's a little early to start imposing roles on it.  I never thought anything of the comment until now...it's funny the things you notice in movies that you never did before.

I was thinking about a comment regarding what a person first looks at when meeting another. I  think I am guilty of what this lady complained about, but never would I tell her that. This comment was regarding someone looking at breasts. I look at faces but won't deny looking at curves and breasts. I would find it pretty crass to come up and tell a lady that and wonder what drove a person to do that to this lady friend.

Sometimes people innocently look at someone's features because they admire them, not because they're being inappropriate. That said, I have a habit of checking out girls' butts :P but only because I want to see if they're bigger than mine. If they are I get jealous! So strange...

QuoteWhat are you thinking?

Oh, for me, just the usual...why did I "shut down" just as I came home from work? (Everyday this happens, btw) Why am I bothering to continue breathing? Do I really believe things "will get better"? Why haven't I made dinner yet? (Oh, that's right, I've shut down.) Can I do anything besides play Freecell, look at Susan's, or FaceBook? (Seriously, that's all I can do once I've turned off for the evening)

Does this matter? I should go outside and say hi to the neighbors...*huge anxiety pre-attack*...oh well, maybe not...*anxiety attack drops to 18% strength*...hmm, wonder if there's any new posts on Susan's...Freecell, "game over, no more moves" (3 out of 7 games won, must reset the score)...Susan's new replies...unread posts...FaceBook...damn I'm hungry, I should make...no stay right in your chair, you're not moving!

*suicide ideation, suicide ideation, suicide ideation...* Hmm...music would be nice, but gotta finish this Freecell game...wait gotta check Susan's again...*suicide ideation, suicide ideation...*...*gotta make dinner, gotta make dinner, hungry, gotta make dinner*...FaceBook! A notification! Maybe upload a picture...

Almost time to call work about tomorrow...phone's on the table next to me...Susan's! A PM!! Yay!...remember, the phone...gotta call, gotta call...who? Oh yeah, work...Reply to the PM first...

:-\

This is literally what my mind is typically thinking when I'm home, after work and on the weekends.

Yes, I'm in therapy, and no, there is no danger of self-harm.

I don't know why I do this.

My twin!! Glad to meet you, LordKat...

It's now 810pm my time...I wrote the first post at 623...so it's been almost two hours.

And what have I done? Dishes? No. Dinner? No. Anything but FB, Susan's, and Freecell? Nope. I even missed my evening E pills (which I usually take between 6pm and 8pm)...

My the*apist has asked, "Where do you 'go' when you shut off?" I don't really know...sometimes I don't even remember the days at all. My computer has a history, so I can check it...and I know I only look at Susan's, FB, and occasionally YouTube.

One thing that is always very very common with the experience, is the sense of being in a "place" where there is no time, not at all. Like when the Flatlander gets picked up by "the apple"...he goes "up", but has no reference with which to point to "up", so when he gets back into his dimensions (only two) he can only sense the loss of the third dimension, but cannot point to it.

I'm like that, I sense a loss of the dimension of "time", and that is where I "go."

Last night I went to bed about 1am...had to get up at 6am. Normally, I try to be in bed by 9...but that never happens. 1030-midnight is more usual.

Remembering my meds helped me come back to "reality" (such as it is LOL)...I wouldn't have remembered except for the post. I was able, once I got up and med'ed myself, to do the dishes as well.

But, no dinner. I do briefly think about going out to a restaurant, or maybe to the local LGBT bar (they have really good chicken strips)...but now I'm sitting again, and I've already felt my switches...*click click click*. Now I need to withdraw from my "timeless" zone...

I was reminded of that whilst looking through articles. Now I want to make a scarf in time for celebration. I've already got one for pansexual pride; genderqueer is lavender, white, and green, while neutrois (found it just now) is white, green, and black. I want to finish both of the latter, but I still need the right green for them.  :-\ Going to have to shop for yarn later. And rack up some free time.

Hm... Perhaps my binder will be here by then.

i've been thinking the whole day why i cried last night. it was such a tiny incident (as always) and i was just crying nonstop. more i cried, more i felt lonely and outlawed, more i felt the need to move out and start my life anew, though what triggered the cry was never related to GD. at one point there was my outer self weeping sobbing and spilling tears while my inner self, the wise know-it-all guy was asking 'what's this nonsense? why are you crying? stop being a fool and gather yourself together and do some school work' but the outer self wouldn't listen. it just wanted to cry on and on recalling all kinds of unhappy memories. when it finally ended i was so drained and i really needed some music. i turned on the radio and fell asleep with the earphones on. arrgh! i even went through the old childish thoughts like 'i'm not their child' or 'i should kill my brother'(it was him who triggered me) and 'no it's better to kill myself. oh! then all my friends will cry! no i shouldn't die' etc. it felt so stupid!

well music helps a lot as i said, plus daydreaming about transition. i have a generally peaceful mind and ignore little disturbances most of the time, but once in a while something gets through and ruins it all.
thanks for the concern but i can't move out yet, not until i finish school and have my own income, and that's gonna take about an year more. i'll just have to hold on until then, if i could hold it for 18yrs, why not one more year?

My brother is such an unappreciative douchebag and the way he talks back to my mother pisses me off.   I know he has autism but it isn't that bad to where you can't understand how to respect your parents.  He knows right from wrong.  He's been living for almost 30 years so he should know when our mother gets ready for work.  The douchebag decides to take a bath right at the same time she needs to get ready and when my mother tells him she has to go in there he tells her "You should have gotten in there earlier when you had all this time."  I would have slapped him.  I could tell my mom was getting frustrated and told him sternly that she sets her clock on a schedule each morning and that he has all day and his response was a surprised "what??" then he starts mumbling to himself "you could have gotten in earlier" or something like that so he went in his room and watches Power Rangers until she got out.  I don't know what pisses me off more: the way he talks to our mom or how my mom just takes it and doesn't get as stern as she SHOULD get with him.  She holds me to a stricter standard and I hate that.  He can take the bus to his home and doctor and to wherever else he needs to go (or if it's out of the bus route she will take him), yet she is cramming it down my throat that I need to get my drivers licenses and drive (though to be fair, she does take me places where I need to go but still). The guy dropped out of college (and don't get me wrong, I don't think everyone needs college to be successful) and has no plans for his life as far as I can see, yet I went to the same college and got my degree with the plan to move up north at least....one day....and I can't get a moped? How hypocritical!  Many times I feel that she (and my father) favors him over me and it isn't going to get any better for me when I announce my transition plans.....if I can ever afford them since both parties are telling me to worry a job later and focus on my driver's license first, and who knows how long that will take considering I'm a slow learner. They will probably favor him even more then.  When I tell my sister my feelings, she says it's because my mom doesn't want to get into an argument with my brother and she says that typically the male children get away with more and that the "females" are held to a stricter standard and I feel there is some truth to that.  But I'm not female!  Arrrrgh!  My brother can just kick and scream and get his way (or at the very most, get a verbal slap on the wrist. Even though I have no respect for my brother at all, I envy him because he has the biological male body that I desire.  I would GLADLY trade places with him in a heartbeat even though he's like 350 pounds and autistic.  Honestly, I do think I that I may have slight autism myself, but it went so far under the radar that my parents didn't get me tested for it.

Or you think I'm going to jump over and eat them? It's not like I could possibly just be there to do some shopping or anything, I must be there looking to corrupt your precious family values.

My brother's neighbours stopped talking to him and doing favours for him when they saw he had a male friend living with him. It's really silly.

Chainsaws and jackhammers are what I love to wake up to at 6:45AM.  Especially after going to bed late.  These idiots make the barking dogs next door sound welcome.

So glad I moved to a quiet neighborhood!

Lol, and with that Susan's Odyssey, I think it's time to lock this thread and open a new one.
