Restrooms and Work

Okay, so it has been a real long time since I updated anything, but there are new measurements and pictures in both the gallery and transition pages.

So, day before yesterday was an awesome day! I went to group with one of my friends and while there, I was told I am making very good progress on my voice which made me very happy. Mostly because I was not hearing it from just one person, but many. While I was there, one topic we talked about was the use of public restrooms. Now recently, Colorado passed a new law allowing anyone to use whatever restroom that they associate themselves with at the time. Do to the news, I used the women's restroom for the first time! The idea of using a restroom is not all that big, but for a transgendered person it is really big. I no longer have to go to the mens restroom looking as a woman and getting stares saying, "why the hell are they in here".

The next day was fun also, as I went to a site downtown that I use to work at. Some of my old colleagues were there as well and once again that meant coming out to people. It went just fine though, did not have any issues and everyone was happy for me. After the meeting was a different story. I stopped in at my work just to say hi, and let them know I did go to the meeting. Upon entering the building, my boss was there and his first words were "Don't tell me you wore that to the meeting?", to which I replied "Yes, I did". My boss then proceeded to tell me that it was supposed to be business casual or uniforms. I had to look at myself and then him, to which I replied, "This is business casual". I could not believe he had said those things. I have never had such a jackass of a boss before, and I have had some big ones. Anyways, so I plan on letting someone know about everything sometime next week. All in all, I have had a couple of really good days.

Nothing New...

I am sorry I have not been on for a while. It has been a rather busy month. Mostly been dealing with my condo as of late, but it looks like that will be over here real soon. I am supposed to go and clean it out over the next couple of days. Fun, Fun. Other than that, lets see I ended up dropping $170 on clothes with my friend Samantha over at the store the other day, and I must say it was soo, much fun. :)  I also just started Yoga classes with her on Thursdays, and it was actually pretty entertaining. It hurt a little bit, but if anything it reminded me of the time I took Tai Chi during college. So, I hoping to do that at least once a week. On another note, I also want to start swimming laps at the local pool with my other friend Amy. Problem is, I need a new swim suit. I was all excited to start up again, when it dawned on me that I only have my old swim trunks from before transitioning. :P Well, I know what I will be getting on my next paycheck.

Things have really been picking up with my role-playing game that I have been trying to make over the past few years. Some of the people at Drink and Draw have been really excited to get involved in the making of the game, that we are going to be doing a mock session on Tuesday. Just enough to work out some rules and maybe come up with more. If any of you are interested in knowing more about it, just post a comment and I can try and fill in some answers. Right now, we are calling it the Wheel System, but it might change to the Threat System due to the name being to close to others out there.

Anyways, I plan on posting some updates on my transitioning within the next week or two. Everyone have a wonderful day!
