I'm going to a costume party tomorrow night. The theme is "Reboot." Going along with the reboot theme, I'm gonna officially come out to this set of friends. Mostly, I'm going to explain that I'm actually in drag because I'm dressing like a man (Tim Curry) and not, as it would appear, as a woman (since I'm doing Frank-n-furter... they're doing a RHPS reboot, so that's also in-theme). It will be lots of fun explaining this to people.

Sparrow good luck. Sounds like a wonderful tie to come out. Hugs

Go all out, enjoy every minute. Make sure your nails look nice & maybe get help so your makeup looks nice. I hope you dress as yourself, a woman.

I had a fantastic brunch with a couple of transgender activists and entrepreneurs. Thanks to Nikki Araguz Loyd and Angelica Ross for sharing part of their day with me. I hope that someday I can be as much of an asset to our community as these two ladies are.

You all look great wish I could have been there

My past two months sure appeared headed toward a business disaster before the end of January. We got hit with a totally unexpected, un-explained rejection notice going against everything else that was already set in motion to follow. Not good for the business plan.

We still proceeded with our work and figured that we'd tough it out if they persisted their opposition.

Victory today. Not totally our way as first planned, but clearly more than we could have ever expected and well enough to get the job done on time. No harm, no foul - despite this sidetrack in one angle - will conclude in absolute success in the end.

Special 'Thank you' to Yann, Li, Ildi, and Eveline for their hard work making it happen.

As Li says, 'Dee-lation!' (delightfull elation) HOORAY for us all!!

Going to my hair stylist today. I have been growing it back out for the last 7 months after a hair butcher scalped me... I really do need to stop going to the random hair dressers... My regular hair dresser is available and fit me in! I did warn him about what happened and he didn't bat an eye to take me in! YAY!!

I know it was a week ago but last Saturday a friend came over an did my makeup and taught me a lot. It was the first time I felt pretty and it was an amazing experience all around!

Here I did my own makeup well enough for the first time on Monday and I actually felt good about it. I felt pretty and got very excited for the future!

These little things can mean so much sometimes

FrancisAnn · January 15, 2016, 07:13:40 PM

I sure did some thrift store shopping today. A beautiful Leslie Fay elegant dress for $5, lots of nice jewerly, braclets, earrings & sweaters from a new consignment shop, 2-3 more nice dresses from a goodwill store. "Thanks hun, please come back & shop with us some more" was nice. That was a nice day. I'll put together a nice outfit for my electrolysis appt. next Tuesday & dress nice. That will feel good. I'm a very passable attractive woman, nicer looking than most cis women....that do not take care of themselves. I'm lucky to have a feminine soft face that looks younger after some plastic surgery & my natural voice has always been nice & thought to be female over the phone or to anyone I talk with. Happy dance today.

12 hrs. from now I will depart for Thailand. It's hard to believe that my time is almost here.
People have asked if I'm nervous. Surprisingly, I'm not - at all. Exited yes! This is my destiny and come what may it is the culmination of a dream that had it's spark in the 1950's. Ancient history to most.

Perhaps some of you have experienced this already and know ! ........ with all of the possible comments or questions one might think that I might have as such a momentous occasion approaches you'd never guess what's on my mind!

OK here it is: When the ticker factory chart reaches the end of the track (as it will next week when the date of my GCS occurs) what happens to it? Does it just disappear?

Guess I'll just have to wait and find out!

Hugz!

Joi

A stranger referred to me as "she" when talking to someone else. Woo hoo!
I guess I don't look as far from a "she" as I think.

islandgirl · January 16, 2016, 09:44:27 AM

That is exciting Joi! Look forward to hearing from you after your surgery. So happy that you have reached this point on your path!

lol, it was a costume party, I couldn't possibly go as myself! That was something boy-me used to do! I was doublecross-dressing! OMG it was a riot. My makeup did not look "nice," but I nailed what I was going for! Everybody who had seen Rocky Horror got it immediately. Everybody else was fairly disturbed by the outfit. A good time was had by me!

FrancisAnn · January 16, 2016, 01:18:46 PM

I would get confused being double cross dressed, hahahaha. You are stronger than me, my skin crawls whenever I've ever been forced to wear any "male" clothes.......It reminds me of high school long ago when I had to dress as a boy & fit in, yuck!!!

Jessie Ann · January 16, 2016, 03:49:28 PM

Got to have breakfast with my dad, two sisters, a brother-in-law and a childhood friend before heading out with my dad for the drive from Denver to Los Angeles. The last few days have been the first they have seen me in person as my true self. All in all it has gone pretty well so far.

kaitylynn · January 16, 2016, 06:39:53 PM

Got to see my therapist today, which is always an awesome time! She is great and I enjoy our sessions immensely. There is a lot of drama in my life right now, experiences that are beyond my control. Love of friends disallows the option of space...so the next best thing, therapy!

Also, got to spend time with an awesome friend this afternoon at the local center.

What a great day!
