That is great philosophy. And not just because I share it.  :)

Lori, we deserve all the joy we can get!!!

This week was a little crazy, but yesterday I met up with Josie, my transgender friend from the QM2 cruise.  She has a fear of flying, so she is taking the QM2 back from NY to Southampton today.  She wanted a NYC pizza before she left so there is a pizzeria right across the street from the Stonewall Inn.  It was a perfect combination!  She included another transgender woman that she was friends with here in NYC.  They met playing online video games.  They both are in their early thirties, so the video game meet-up makes sense.

It was great to be out as three transgender women.  Despite our age differences, we had so much in common. It made me feel so at home, particularly politically.  Josie has a long-term boyfriend in Sweden, and Alice is married in Brooklyn.  It was nice to know that they also have joy in their lives.  We intend to stay in touch...but probably not with video games, at least not with me... ::)

Sounds like you had a nice time Emma.


That is wonderful.

Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

It was very special Chrissy.  Like my friendships here!

I saw this on YouTube and loved it.  Clearly, YouTube knows a woman when it sees one even if the Scottish Parliament doesn't.  It blurred out the nibbles on the woman in the video...but no problem seeing a guys nipples.  I googled "topless guys playing basketball". Plenty of nipples. Obviously some nipples are more dangerous...Maybe I'll go topless in front of the US Supreme Court building or the Capitol Building.  If I get arrested for being immoral... legal point made, I must be a woman.

I won't post a link, but there is a .org that has been supporting gotopless since 2007.
I'll let you figure that out.  ;D

To be fair... your average guy only has to see uncovered breasts and it's like focusing too much on sat-nav. They WILL drive off a cliff. :P

Great bit, Sephirah but I couldn't find a nose g-strig anywhere....It's weird that when I am dressed as a man in a tight t-shirt, no one notices but if I wear the same t-shirt as me I notice the eyes refocus.

My friend Josie sent me a picture we took at the Stonewall Inn National Museum.  It's still open in spite of Trump. Rainy day and no makeup.

Sorry all, I haven't been online because I've had a nasty head cold that really beat the hell out of me for the last week. 

I will catch up soon.

I hope life is better now for you Emma!

I have also heard of Dandelion Tea being good for head colds. You crush and steep the greens, not the flowers. Don't take my word for it, as I have not tried it myself.

Thank you, Chrissy and Annaliese, for your get-well wishes, and Davina and Lori for the herbal tea ideas.

I have spent the last week floating on tea and honey.  My bladder developed a wake-up call at around 3 o'clock every morning.  Fortunately, the cough and head cold have subsided in time for me to start my two-week vacation tomorrow. 

It is much needed and I will spend the time with wine and food, and not watching the news!

There is nothing worse than being sick on vacation.

Have a great time!
