I got all my sisters with me

What can I say? Thursday night at Nottingham Chameleons was just fantastic. I’d toyed with the idea of getting changed down the road, but I took the wrong route and decided to head straight for the venue instead. Everyone was very welcoming (thanks girls!) and I met up with a few email friends – Maddie and Rachel. That was great to have a chinwag and talk shop (trans stuff) with like minded people. The group are on the move soon, they switch to a new venue up in Nuthall. That’ll be easier for me to get to. Mrs J had waited up for me – bless her – and we had a talk about it. She said she’d been looking […]

All systems go

The Christmas fun and games are just about over. We’ve just about managed to cram the paper and boxes into the recyling bin. I woke up this morning to the industrial groaning of the bin lorry. I wonder if bin men get danger money for Christmas? 🙂 P. went out with her friend K. yesterday evening. I’d completely forgottern about it – and, bless her – she says laughing, “I’ll be back after 9.30 at the earliest – so have fun” and she gave the trunk in the spare room a kick. “Just make sure you get your eyeliner off this time!” That was a very welcome Xmas surprise and one I took complete advantage of! Unusally for me, I […]

Panic over…

Amazing what a good night’s sleep can do for people isn’t it? This morning’s blog was rather scary wasn’t it?

The going out remains a bit of a no-no, which is a shame, but compromise is better than divorce. Other news? The shopping was very good although I was a little bit miffed by the staff in Hot Hair in Nottm. Perhaps the conversation they were having was more interesting than helping a paying customer. 🙂 Ah well, I drifted off to take a look at what […]

The Terrible Truth or the Beautiful Lie?

Two posts in a week? Shock horror! 🙂 In time honored tradition I’m going to make it a good news / bad news situation. 🙂 First the good news… the good news is? Well, I still have my family and P. is at least talking to me after last night’s tears. This is at least a good sign. Other good news is, that it’s shopping day today. Time to go and indulge in some retail therapy for P’s xmas presents. The bad news? Ahh well, we had That Conversation. You know the one, it even gets capitalization. I’ll be honest (which is a rare thing) but you can afford to be straight with complete strangers can’t you. I’m not going […]
