Flashy Lashes!

February 11, 2019

One may have thought that on a morning like this I would wake with a smile on my face and a spring in my step.  Today was after all going to be the day that I got my lash extensions done.  However, I did not wake all happy and exited.  I woke nervous and scared.   In fact I woke with my neck bugging me.  I used to think that meant that I slept on it wrong.  These days I understand…

1 Year Anniversary on Estrogen

July 3, 2018

I really had no idea.  If I would have known, I would have gone this route long ago.  How different life would be is unimaginable.  It’s sad, actually.  I know, I shouldn’t feel bad for things that have happened, for it was only those things that brought me to the path I’m on.  Who knows what would have been now, if that had not ever been then.  At least it happened eventually. Oh, I’m sorry, I’m waxing on dramatically without…

A Human Narrative

April 6, 2018

What do you picture when you hear the phrase “gang member?”  How about the phrase “founding member of a gang?”  How about hearing someone explain to you, in person, standing not five feet away, that they have possibly taken the lives of human beings in the commission of crimes?  And yes it was left open as to the exact number.  I got the feeling that possibly not even he knew the exact count.  So?  How about it?  Thoughts on who…

Quitting Estrogen? Hell No!

January 23, 2018

I’m curious, after getting your driver’s license did anyone ever ask you, hey, have you ever thought about what might happen if you decide to stop driving?  What will happen to you?  Have you thought about all of the possible ramifications of continuing to drive?  Did you make sure to keep your bike and your bus pass?  How about getting your teeth fixed?  Did anyone tell you to be careful of what you were doing when you got braces?  Or…

Numb

November 6, 2017

My therapist called it numb on her Facebook post, and it really made me think, yeah that is what I am these days towards mass murder, numb.  It is so super sad.  I haven’t really known how numb I have become to these horrid crimes until this past visit to Las Vegas.  I know I have written quite a bit about my two to three day trip to Las Vegas.  Apparently it was a moving event for me.  Somethings I…

It’s Not Estrogen, It’s Me on Estrogen

October 24, 2017

It not estrogen, it’s me on estrogen, that’s what I would have said, if I could have one of those brains that actually thinks in real time.  For me though my thoughts often come hours, day, months, years, or even decades after the fact.  Things are constantly replayed within my mind, over and over, on endless loops, with me trying out different responses to see how they fit and pondering their implications. Lately it seems as though more often than…

Penises to the Left and Vaginas to the Right

October 11, 2017

We were standing in the men’s locker room when I began telling Edward that I get it, as a society, we want to separate the penises from the vaginas.  That is the only appropriate thing to do when penises want so desperately to get into vaginas.  At least that is the logic as it was explained to me when I was just a young kid – in order to keep the penises out of the vaginas, we need to have…
