Month: January 2007

Hey kids… How’s it going? Jaysus, what a week… I’m glad that’s over and it’s the weekend. Woo-hoo! Not only that but it’s Transpocalypse too. Sadly, I won’t be going this year (family commitments), but you never know do you. To those of you going, have a good time and stay safe! Winter’s passed, spring and fall What is it with us humans and anniversaries? On Thursday, 27th January 2006 I pulled up outside a community centre in Arnold. I grabbed my rucksack off the back seat and headed inside. I was met by a nice lady who welcomed me to the group and told me where I could get changed. Thirty or fourty minutes later I’d packed my male stuff […]

Say kids, Another week shoots by. Almost time to rip another page off the calendar. Time flies huh? Dancing.. with tears in my eyes Possibly Midge Ure had been singing about dancing in heels, but I guess we’ll never know. I must confess I’m a bit of a dance junkie. I love it. There’s nothing quite like losing yourself in the moment and shaking your thang. I don’t understand folk who say “I don’t dance”. Yeah, well, neither do I really. It’s more like a organised riot of limbs, but really you’ve nothing to fear except ridicule and mild injury. Flippancy aside, dancing is a wonderful pastime and I find myself daydreaming about dancing / singing when listening to music. […]

Hi everyone, How’s it going? All piglets fed and ready to fly? Good, good. Fly my porcine beauties, fly, fly and be free! While you where sleeping. I don’t know about you, but Christmas completely threw my sleep patterns. Late nights, late mornings then early nights because of an early start. In an ideal world, it would be late nights and late mornings! Sadly my employer doesn’t see it like that, but hey, you can’t have it all can you? 🙂 So – and at the risk of sounding like Jesse’s Diary – this week I have mostly been trying to get to bed earlier than previous. So far, so good. The sleeping plan was going well until Thursday. Thursday […]

Well, this paragraph on Becky’s blog has made my week! Isn’t it nice when something cool like this happens. Thanks, Becky. “Last but not least I’m enjoying YATGB by Lynn Jones. The acronym stands for “Yet Another T-Girl Blog”, but Lynn is really selling herself short, she writes well and thoughtfully. Although she doesn’t seem to work in IT or own a motorbike, so I’m not sure why she’s trans.” Why am I trans? Well, the short answer is because boy clothes are just too damned dull. I’ll give you a longer answer next time. Oh, I bet you can’t wait can you? 🙂

Hey again folks, How’s life treating you? Back to work huh? Yeah, it sucks after such a good Christmas holiday. Taking extra time off at Xmas has been really nice. It was great to have those extra days off between Xmas and New Years. Yeah, sure you don’t actually do a lot of work during that time, but let’s be honest, wouldn’t you rather be snoozing in bed or tucked up on the sofa eating chocs and watching a DVD? Still, back to the grind. However, there are the Sales to think about! 🙂 Radio Thoughts If you pop over to Becky’s blog you can have a listen to her radio interview. No, not a podcast, an actual interview with […]

Ahhh… New Year’s has been and gone. Happy new year everyone. I hope that 2007 is good for you. I wonder what trials and tribulations it will bring? 2006 was an interesting year. New houses and new jobs for most people I know, people emigrating and (as this is a tgirl blog), I started going out to the support group in January. Has it only been 11 months? It seems like longer. There are parts of 2006 that have been hard, but on the whole, life has been good to me and my family. I know of a few people who’ve had it a lot harder than I have. For this, I am very grateful. Going out has (understandably) caused […]
