As a few of you may know, today is my anniversary.

Well, It's been a while since I posted an update... I've done some updates on a person 2 person basis, or to small groups in the GabyZone chat-room, but it's time to get everyon caught up...

Kim left Deborah Heart and lung center, 2 or 3 weeks ago now.... I'm not sure exact dates because my schedule is all turned around...

If you've not heard of them, the Spiral Scouts are an inclusive organization.

An answer to those that Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts won't let in.

I'm going to try to start something here, and I dare anyone to try to top it. ;)

I've never lived in Japan but have visited the country. The occasional bits of Japanese in the story are being provided to me by a friend. From 1987 to 1989 while serving in the Navy, I was stationed in the Philippines at Subic Bay.

On my computer the voting and comments counters have gone crazy, plus the registration for the number of reads on an individual story. I don't know if this is system-wide,

There is a question, or maybe it is a group of questions, that I have been trying to figure out how to ask for the last two or three months. Having gotten no closer to figuring out the proper way to phrase it, I just decided to throw it on the table, like a half a hog, and see if something can be made of it.

How important do readers want the TG aspect to be in a TG story?

Gosh people! I can't believe that you all missed a key element in the chapter. Do you all skim so fast that you missed this. This is soooooo key; like as in a big deal!

Hi there.

Not really a blog entry. I'm looking for a story I used to have.

I am looking for a maker of corsets that someone has had good luck with. Romantasy seems nice but I do not know them. I am thinking that it could be a nice little train ride to go down there.

Can anyone make a recomendation for the Western Half of the US or ??

Due to moving I've been away for a while.It will take me a little while to get established and caught up on reading.As soon as that happens I'll start writing and posting more of "hell yeah it hurt".Has everyone gone back to not using the chatrooms?Amy

Hot news for Good Friday in UK is of a nurse who nearly died from anaphylactic shock caused by a new pair of panties. For more details see: http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/article945007.ece

Could be scary. How many other people could be affected?

I hope I'm not being tiresome in reposting interesting tidbits I find elsewhere on the 'net every once in awhile.

This story is about an FTM man, legally married to a woman, who opted to carry their child when she couldn't.

For me, the most interesting part is the behavior of the medical staff where they live, putting their own petty attitudes above the health and welfare of their patient.

Andrea James is a young transwoman whose career I have followed for a few years. My first impression of her was that she was another man struggling to make a new life, and at first it seemed somehow flawed. My heart went out to her; and my wishes for her to succeed.

A few weeks ago, I saw a clip with her in it. Her voice was flawless, and she was pretty; no trace of "Frank" there.

Just to let you all know that I will be on holiday for one week from Saturday; so I won't be doing any more Orphan until I get back. (Hooray I hear you shout).

I find that I am very lucky in that the Church that I attend truly accepts everybody for who and what they are. I hope that all of us here at Big Closet Top Shelf can find a Church Home where they are accepted.

Sad news, another great gone. Feels like a little bit of the future has gone with him.

I had not realized that there were several transwomen here who found themselves at an early age. My happiness for you.

To all those who have faced the horror of coming against a society that does not understand. Pray happy for you.

To all those who have been beaten half to death because of something you did not do. Pray happy for you.
