Title: Electrolysis tech says I need more laser...
Post by: Beth Andrea on October 03, 2013, 07:37:59 PM
Ok, so I decided to get assessed for electrolysis...suffered through two days' stubble growth, get down there, she takes me in late, and almost immediately suggests I do laser instead.

Too many dark hairs, the techs would have me for a LONG time clearing that out. I told her I'd already had 12 laser sessions, she seemed surprised, "I've never done 12 sessions on one person, they're always ready for electrolysis after less than that."

I don't know if she was just trying to sell me on their laser services or what. I'd told her I'd already have a relationship with another clinic for laser, and now I'm eligible for a price break (which I may or may not be...often their sales are better than my "break").

Anyway....ARGGGHH!!....stubble for two days, driving 12 miles in rush hour (both ways!!), and now I have to figure out laser? Or just screw it, wait until after FFS (expected date in late March).

To top it off, while I was in the office waiting, a tall, muscular guy walks in, I start eyeing him...broad shoulders, moderately narrow hips...he's built about like me....OMG HE'S BUILT ABOUT LIKE ME!!! Except I gots tits. And a purse-let. And a rainbow strapped key thingie.

Can you say, "Dysphoria", kiddies? Seriously, sometimes I wish I could just behead myself and hook my head up to a blood circulation machine...but then, I'd STILL have stubble to deal with...!!

:( :(

Don't let it get to you too much, Beth. You look very much like my cis female friend. Bone structure and all. If I can find a pic and her permission, I will show you, you are more fem than you think.

Yeah, I'm starting to think that...in the past couple days, I've had guys come over and start conversations...but the moment I face them or say something, they're stunned and end the conversation.

I hope that's what is going on, anyways... ;)

Here's my blueberry cheesecake two-scoop ice cream, in a waffle cone bowl:

I said "Put this on Joule's account", but the guy just looked at me like I was some kind of weird bearded lady or something...

I'm sorry to hear about that. Needing more laser can't be fun, and two days stubble has got to drive you crazy. BUT AT LEAST YOU GOT ICE CREAM!
