Computer Problems.... again!

I'm having computer problems again. Once more my romance entry is nearly completed, but may be lost. This is the third time I've had to write parts of it over again due to virus's, and this time a POST problem. Just as bad, LL's excellent Retcon Star Wars rekindled my muse for my own Retcon story involving Ms Marvel. Tired last night, I shut down without backing up like I usually do, so all of that may be lost too.

replacing my cards

Well, I spent yesterday getting started on replacing all my cards and identifications. First, I was able to get a new health card sent to me after answering enough questions to prove I'm me. (For non-Canadians, this little card basically allows me to access, free of charge most services at hospitals and doctor's offices.) Then, I was able to get a temporary driver's license and a permanent one will come later. I have some things left to do, including getting a copy of my birth certificate so I can get a new social insurance card, but its good to get the process rolling.

Forced sex change operations in India

News story... Now with added linkies

Sorry 'bout that guys gals and others. I did't pay attention to the preview before. Link isn't to the same article as the one posted below, but obviously same story. (Also it seems the hindustantimes article is more informative anyway.)

Plausible space velocities for stories.

One of the stories here got me curious about the "Star Wars" series, for purely technical reasons. :) So, I began to watch the entire series again from I-VI. In Epi IV, Han Solo mentioned that his ship would do 1.5 light speed. Hmmmm that is just plodding along and is really not much good for space travel. In Lili's present story, she mentioned that the drive she is peddling is capable of 100,000 times light speed; something just barely useful considering the scale of the Universe, or even our own Galaxy.

Aunt Adele's Niece -- Part 1


Aunt Adele’s Niece — Part 1


By Katherine Day


(Copyright 2011)
(This is the third in a series of Aunt Adele stories that tell the story of how a dance teacher raised her 12-year-old orphaned nephew during World War II. The boy discovers how marvelous it is to be a girl. This is a four-part series, based on earlier Aunt Adele stories, “Aunt Adele’s Christmas Gift” and “Aunt Adele’s Easter Pageant.” The reader need not read the earlier stories, but it is recommended by the author.)

Andrew’s Dilemma

The problem with an ongoing story is you can only write so much at a time, and eventually get to an ending I know at the moment there are questions concerning the adoption. Just to help with the story line in Canada a child that is 16 years old or older has these rights and more.

Age 16+

You can:

- withdraw from your parent’s control (i.e. leave home) but you may lose your right to financial support [Child and Family Services Act, Children’s Law Reform Act, & Family Law Act]

For My Princess: Part 5

Book cover image

"The queen wishes that we all go out riding this afternoon."

Helene was all smiles.

"It was so long ago that I last rode with mother."

Arabella approached Lady Ysabel and began to whisper.

"Mother, I cannot ride the only time I have been atop a horse was when I played with the baker's children. We used to play with the pony that delivered the sacks of flour."

 

Freaking out my daughter

Well, If I needed any proof that my daughter isnt ready for me to be out with her as Dorothy, yesterday provided it. I had woken up at 330 pm in a panic, thinking I had forgotten to pick her up from school. I hurriedly put on a t-shirt and shorts and ran out to the school, only to find her gone, picked up by my mother, who had told me she would before I went to sleep, only I had forgotten. So I went home, and they came home right after, and my daughter took one look at me and freaked out. I hadn't realized it, but I had grabbed a ladies t shirt I use as a camisole by mistake.

Thanks to the Retcon folk

Thanks to everyone who has been patient with me while I figured out how to put my story in the retcon index. It's repeated in some places now but hopefully that will be sorted out.

Special thank go to Enemyoffun, Maggie Finson, those who gave ideas in the forum.
But most of all I thank Lilith Langtree for her patience and for not getting angry that I messed up her page.

thanks to all who commented on "White Skates"

I wanted to thank everyone who commented on "White Skates". Its an idea I had a while back, and then forgot until Sunday morning when I got home from work, while I was having a quick bath before going to bed. You know, I should invest in waterproof pen and paper, I get some of my best ideas when I'm in a bath...

Sarah Carerra - 2.42 - Paramount Theatre

sc2.jpg The Paramount Theatre was the smallest venue on the tour, seating slightly less than 3,000 people. But the noise those fans generated rivaled anywhere else I had performed as it reverberated around the small theatre that had been designed with acoustics in mind.

Another try

This is a poem i've written years ago, when I was still trying to figure myself out, it's a short one, but I hope you like it:

sitting here
sitting here lonely
watching the mirror
trying to smile
tears come out of my eyes
who is that person?
why do I feel sad for him?
I clean my eyes and go outside with a smile
another day, another try

Somewhere Else Entirely -25-

An unexpected visitor has arrived at the palace, the brother of the ruler of a nearby country. Unfortunately he is a sexual predator whose status makes him unstoppable and both Garia and Merizel are at risk. Cue a very tense banquet... and then Garia has an idea.

Gaby Tales

Hi peeps

Over the last few years Angharad and I have written a number of pretty much standalone Gabysodes for various competitions and events. Some of these have been widely seen on the internet, others have only limited distribution.

I thought it would be nice to bring a selection of these tales together in one single volume so if you have missed their previous appearances or simply like to see Gaby in print, this one’s for you.

So here it is, Gaby Tales, ten Gabysodes that sit outside of the main stream of either Angharad's or my own main Gaby storylines.

White Skates

White Skates

Small boy holds on to his mother’s hand, as they navigate the store, looking for the right place. Soon, they are in sporting goods, and the two of them join the small group of boys and girls and harried parents getting new skates.

“I want white skates, momma.” The small boy practically whispers.

“White skates are for girls.” She says, and sits him down so the salesclerk can measure his feet. Soon they are stuffed into black skates, and the mother says “Now you’ll be able to play hockey.”

Type II Diabetes linked to fast food

Okay, it's stating the obvious but the evidence hasn't been clear before. As this affects several people who use this site, thought I'd post this link. The interesting thing is that going on a crash diet for a week (600 calories or less per day) apparently cures it.

reporting from base camp

I think this is a good image for describing my current state. I'm climbing a mountain, at the top is "being totally female". Right now I've made some good progress, and have set up a base camp, to try and figure out the next part of my ascent. Having a safe base at the moment is wonderful, but also kind of dangerous. It would be very easy for me to be content where I am right now - being Dorothy at work, Todd around my daughter. But I know that comfort is illusion. Eventually, I have to get back to climbing, or risk falling off entirely.

How do I put a story in the contents list in the Retcon Universe?

I started 'What Light Through Yonder Shadow...' Earlier This year. Lilith told me that it goes just before 'Green with Envy'. I've asked others how to put it there and I am still having trouble.
Could someone please help me?

Her I am again!

Her I am again! You have to pardon me if the typing isn't perfect, but I'm wearing nail polish for the first time in a long time,and it's not quite dry. And, oh yeah, I'm not quite sober. Panties, cork soled wedge heels and a long dress with built in bra cups. I can't tell you how good it feels

What Light character list and Act 3

"What Light Through Yonder Shadow" has 3 acts. I've finished two of them at the end of each act I put down the main characters of that act. Act 3 will be shorter and I might put the character list before I start.
I have said that I won't create new characters and I'm not although I am using a guest character with another author's permission.
I have taken a while to do act 3 as I have been unsure how to form the picture into words. Please be patient.

May be of some interest...

This morning, I saw on the 'ticker tape' portion of one of those 24-hr news channels (a Toronto station) that New York State has legalized same-sex marriages by a vote of 33-29. Didn't have much more information than that, but I bet you can probably find more.

I understand that makes it the 6th State to do so. Only 44 to go, guys!
