Oh my gosh, the anticipation is killing me. Starting Thursday is the big Sisters' Weekend. I have Thursday and Friday off from work. My younger sister and I are going to visit our older sister for the weekend. To prepare, on Thursday I'm going to get my first ever mani/pedi and brow shaping. Friday, I'll be flying for the first time as female. Our three day plan includes shopping (lots of shopping at the Mall of America), my first ever makeover by a woman who has a ton of experience with crossdressers, trangendered women and drag queens, a fancy dinner out and who knows what else. The whole weekend from the time I get up Thursday morning until I return home Sunday night will be spent as a female. Full time, no safety nets, no backing out.
This is my last "try it out" experience before I start HRT. I'm looking at it as my last opportunity to back out. My gut is already telling me that rather than back out, this weekend is just going to cement for me that I'm doing the right thing and that transitioning is what will make me finally feel whole.
The spa appointment should be interesting. As I said it's my first mani/pedi and when I made the appointment, I made no mention of being transgender. We'll find on Thursday if they're trans-friendly or not.
My sisters are both super stoked. I think my younger sister really enjoys helping me learn to be a woman. She's the one that first took me to Ulta for makeup. Both are amazingly supportive and this should hopefully bring us a lot closer together as well.
OK I'm done gushing, I'm just so excited that I couldn't hold it in. I'm literally counting the hours.
