Title: Greetings from the Edge
Post by: Laurry on April 17, 2008, 09:18:00 PM
Hi Everyone!

Been a while since I've been around...needed some time to get my head together, now if I can just remember where I put it.   ::)

My life is about the same as before, except that I am more at peace with who I am.  The pendulum that had swung wildly to the feminine side (trying to make up for all those lost years?) has settled down a bit, and now remains closer to the center.  Yeah, it still swings between Very Feminine and Kinda Masculine, but stays in the "just me" zone more often, (or maybe the "just me" zone expanded a little, who knows?).

My appearance has moved around a little too, but seems to have settled into a more gender-bender view instead of truly androgynous.  (The picture is new as of today.)  My hair is longer (again), added a new style of beard, but kept the long nails and arched eyebrows.  Outside of the office, my nails are generally polished and I wear eye makeup and lipstick.  Now that the weather is warm, I've quit worrying about what people might think, and proudly show off my shaved legs.  (If only I could wear those pretty sandals and proudly display those brightly colored toenails....oh well, maybe later.)

Well, that's a brief update for those of you that might have thought about caring   ;D

Happy to be home again....Laurry

Hey Laurry, it's really nice to hear from you again!!!  ;D Glad to know things are going well for you.

Your head is right where you left it... along with your car keys and purse  ;)

Hey Laurry-

The "just me" zone is a good place to be  8)

I'm still trying to learn to be comfortable in my own "just me" zone....

Hi Laurry,
I think you left just as I joined. Glad to see you back.

Thanks everyone.

...and Z, that explains why I can see my keys, and the wall directly behind them, but still have no clue where it is.  Maybe the dog will bump whatever my head is sitting on and spin it around a little...I'm getting hungry and it would be nice to eat.

.....Laurry

Try to get your aim right, though: porridge down the cleavage looks kind of sloppy. Not your style.

(Welcome back!)
