Well, either my ex didn't notice my wig, or she chose to not mention it when I picked her up last night. Part of me is breathing a sigh of relief, the other part of me realizes all this means that the confrontation is still to come ...

Four years ago I was getting up my nerve to sign on to BCTS. I found this to be such a warm and friendly place. Oh, there were a few soreheads and curmudgeons around; however, they were few and far between. A little more than three years ago, I decided to take the plunge and post the story I had spent several years writing. It was badly edited and proofed (by me); however, it was well received. Thankfully, Holly Hart took me under her wing. I posted two more stories before prostate cancer and some severely botched surgery knocked me on my rear for several months.

Well here goes round 3 in the operating room in 4 1/2 months the left foot the same 1 as was worked on in June is going to be broken and fixed again. 4 more weeks wearing a compression boot up to my knee and pins in my toes. I am getting so I feel addicted to anesthesia so Thursday morning before the sun comes up and I will be back to sleep and home by 11 AM

My dog, who I have had for almost 16 years (short by 2 mo), was put to sleep today. She was old, had trouble walking, fell over occasionally, had trouble going up and down stairs. It hurts. It hurts a lot. I have been crying over it for the last several days. This has been really difficult to deal with. So, I wanted to let you all know, because I will be out of it for a while.

Take care and hug your pets.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the next part of the Jessica's Journey has been sent to be edited and hopefully I should have it back soon.

Sorry for the wait I was admitted to the hospital a couple weeks ago with a sinus infection that refused to leave because of the medications that I am taking, they suppress the immune system and made it hard to fight off. I have to see the doctor again this week and hopefully it has completely gone now, keeping my fingers crossed.

I'll wait for PS to do the official statistics, but just doing a quick count using the cat's toes, and counting back the last six or seven episodes, Bike has reached well over 2 Million words.

My mother always told me I would use half a dozen words where one would do, perhaps she had a point.

In keeping with the title of the story, I demonstrated the ease with which I manage to fall off bikes yesterday, thankfully no serious damage was done to the bike. Oh me, just a few scratches - bike riders is tough (unfortunately not as tough as the average road!).

So. The family meeting had been tonight.

This morning I had too much laundry to do and couldn't make it to church, when my mother found out about this, she was all like "what about the Bishop?"

I was like, "what, about the Bishop?"

She was, "Weren't you supposed to meet with him at church today?"

I was like "no..."

She said, "you told me I'd find out today, at church."

I know she's brighter than that, so she selectively misunderstood me back on Friday. I said, "No... I said you'd find out today - at the family meeting."

just a quick little apology. I may not comment much on stories for a bit. I'm trying to focus on my "Quest" story, so I may not be as active as I have been. Doesn't mean I'm not enjoying stories, but my brain is elsewhere.

Well I'm looking for a bit of feedback on this idea concerning Transfigured and a possible rewrite.

Holy crapoly, I DREAMED last night. No, seriously, *I* DREAMED! I *HAVE* been dreaming!

You're probably all thinking I'm nuts right now, and perhaps I am, but you have to understand, for nearly two decades, as my fortress has been in place, I have never once dreamed.

The last time I can remember dreaming while sleeping was around 10 or 11. That's 15-16 years of NO DREAMS.

I am working on a story that is set in Denise's QT Diaries universe. It is the back story for a couple of characters that will appear in her next story release (Ep. V).

This involves an extremely rare case of twin QTs. The two are not originally even related, but are genetically 'merged' in the transformation.

One of the gained characteristics is 'twin speak', the non-verbal communication that twins use. I am thinking of portraying it as a limited form of telepathy, but am open to suggestions.

it's more of those crazy cross-dressing cos-players. What makes this interesting is the Retcon angle. I could totally see some of these fitting in.

Hi Everyone!

For all you GuildWars players, Today (October 15th) from 12pm CDT to 6pm CDT is "Pink Day in LA!"

Pink Day in LA is an annual event that happens in GuildWars and is Sponsored by GuildWars Entertainment Network (GW-EN) and Gamers Giving Back.

The goal this year is to raise over $13,000.00 for The Canadian Cancer Society, and if you donate $10 or more, you'll get an entry into the super-awesome raffle that has a ton of great prizes that you can check out soon!

I'm absolutely, positively in shock!! I just got my renewal package for my health insurance. I am, for medical reasons, retired from the University of California.

This year, (drum roll please) the University has included Gender Reassignment Surgery (GRS/SRS). The very last hurdle for me to go forward with it has been removed.

Now all I have to do is make up my mind (okay, it's already made up, but...) to do IT.

(sigh)

Blessings,
Beth

Well, I'd like to take a second and talk about my latest piece, "There was a point". I had a horrible nightmare in which I replayed a portion of my abuse, except in the nightmare I played both parts - the abuser and the abused. After I woke shaking and crying, I was left with the story, which took about 5 minutes to write. Just goes to show something beautiful can come out of pain, yes?

Keep Wren Phoenix in your thoughts and prayers. She is awaiting news about her arm and it doesn't sound very good. I know she has had her ups and downs lately. I am really hoping that she does get some good news because she really deserves it.

Oops... I said I was going to ave a 300 Rains chapter ready for Sunday and here it is Friday and no Chapter. Well, life and school has been crazy and the edits have not been really high on my list of tasks. I fully intend to get to it and I will post it as soon as it is done regardless of the day.

Sorry. Mea Culpa.

Our very own author, Cyclist, blogged the other day about a Very Important Programme* on the subject of intersex births that aired on the BBC.
