I guess I'm just a little stiff. Sorry~

I mean, I always consider myself not to be able to afford something unless I can go "all the way" with it, and since I make efforts to save despite relatively small income, I get a little over-critical sometimes.

I tip my electrologist... but I do not think it is mandatory or required, as you would do a waiter in a restaurant or hairdresser.

I'm kind of the same way in my own life so it doesn't bother me. I'm just not sure how I feel about it in general.

I tip my laser tech, but only because she put up with my jolting around like I was put on a defibrillator every time she did something on my upper lip.

Girl I can relate to that. Mine kept saying she was so sorry for hurting me. I told her not to worry, as I emptied the tear filled goggles. To be honest, it hurt like Hell. If I had known how much it hurt I would have thought twice. But on reflection it was a sort of pain of honour. It was a commitment. It was a step and I'm stronger for it.

I think we do things that we need to do to transition without always knowing the consequence or impact, possibly poor definitions for what I'm trying to say. Some of these incidents have given me the strength to move forward. Sort of like, if I had the strength to walk into a laser studio and have my beard removed, there is no way that wearing nail polish at work is a problem. If I can wear nail polish at work there is no way that wearing some make up is a problem. If I've had my beard removed, wear nail polish and makeup, then wearing a blouse and pants isn't a problem. So I look female dress female act female and I am female. What's the problem in telling people at work that I'm having a 'sex change'. If I can do all of that and some ass hole has a problem, I can treat them like the ass hole they are. Since I can do all of that, I'm ready.

Damn, when you put it that way I am too

It's a great way to think and it's a step by step process which helps people kind of come to terms with it and understand it too, instead of taking in too much at once, you know?
