“Dark clouds drift away to reveal
The sunshine”

Hi peeps, How’s you? All well I trust. The dark cloud that I’ve been under (occasionally) has drifted away – given the weather we’ve been having, it’s probably been drowned. 🙂 The other day I decided to try and stick to the advice from the 20th century’s greatest philosophers: “Always look on the bright side of life.” So, normality and unselfish behaviour be damned, I went out to Chams. And you know what? It did me the power of good. It wasn’t just the dressing up – although I’d be lying if that wasn’t a part of it. No, it’s the sense of belonging that going along to meet friends gives you. It’s trite but I’ll say it again, it […]

“I said never again but here we are”

Hey hey true believers, Unusually for me I missed my personal deadline of a Friday night post. It’s silly really, but I like to empty my head of the chaff that’s been floating around during the week ready for the weekend. Anyway, that wasn’t going to happen (yesterday) because I just didn’t get my sh** together. My mood has been up and down these last few weeks. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but the weather certainly isn’t helping. Normally there are lots of things you can do – family wise that is – in the pleasant Summer months before the season turns and it’s brollies and wellies for most outside activities. Anyhoo, today I’d had enough and […]

“Tell me the truth…”

Following comments from Rachel and Chrissy (thanks girls), I got to thinking (as one does). I don’t know about the rest of the blogging gang, but I come here to write and let off steam or to talk about things I cannot talk about with others. Like the rest of you I do have a life (no, really) outside of the wardrobe mirror, but I always hold back on what I post. You see I have this fear that one day someone reading this will put 2 and 2 together and go ‘Holy gender divergence Batman, that’s [blah] from work/pub/school’. I know there is a risk in posting here, anyone who really knows me will see links between my trans-life […]

“This paint by numbers life…”

Hola muchachas, Man, I’m running short of ways to say ‘hi’ for each post. Maybe I should chill out a bit and just dive in. Still, where’d be the fun in that eh? So, w’sup? Things here are quiet with a very small ‘q’ at the mo. The summer has now arrived and as such my trans powers are weak (old man). I’m a little burned out from work at the mo. I won’t bore you with the in’s and out’s of that – they don’t pay me to think about that kinda stuff outside of hours. 🙂 TG wise I really don’t know if I’m coming or going at the mo. I’m used to a lull in the old […]

“Here comes the rain again”

Hey-ya 🙂 Fun week? I hope so. Today was rather interesting. Everyone at work seemed to be demob happy. Talk about your Friday feeling. I was wondering if they’ve been putting stimulants in the water coolers (again). It’s that or someone left the tunnel open. Some weeks you limp toward Friday glad that you made it through the week. Heh. Life in the modern office eh? Today though, folk were bordering on the jubilant. Fun though 🙂 TG stuff is all quite at the mo as trans folk seem to be the anti-bears. The Urge ™ seems to hibernate during the summer. Summer? Well okay, we’ve had a *lot* of rain. Luckily, not as much as the good folk of […]
