I went grocery shopping last Friday mostly en femme. That is to say, I was wearing women's clothes but made no attempt to pass. I had no makeup on. My hair was pulled back with a barrette and my shoes were obviously women's with nude knee-hi's and my jacket was a bit bright for a man's. The top I was wearing was definitely feminine, but my jacket was closed to near the top.

So there I was, minding my own business when "Blam"

So there I was, minding my own business back in March, when "Blam" out of the blue I got hit by several back to back severe episodes of Menieres. If you don't know what Menieres is, I will try to explain it. Frist let me say, the Doctors all state the following: "Don't know what causes it", "Don't know how to cure it", "Just know it is progressive." The progressive part is that a person with Menieres eventually goes DEAF in the affected ear.

3D Gender - A game, insulting, or actually useful?

One of the blogs I read has posted

http://onlyagame.typepad.com/only_a_game/2011/04/a-game-of-g...

where the author has come up with a "3D gender" definition that yields 27 variants.

Good? Bad? Indifferent? Fun? Useful? Insulting? Any comments?

This man is an expert on video game design but hardly an expert on gender issues.

Well, Oklahoma is in the middle of a severe drought, we've had less rain for the year than we normally get just in March. Grass fires are a daily occurrence across the state. If we don't get a lot of rain soon, there will be no wheat or hay to harvest. People had better get ready to pay much more for food as well as gasoline. On the bright side, we here in Oklahoma do have the lowest gas prices in the country. :)

Spontaneous sex change in chicken not a joke?

So far as I know, this is not some April Fool joke. The date on the story is 3/31/11.
Basically, a hen became a sort-of rooster, crowing, strutting and changing comb and wattle and quit laying eggs, after a molt. Veternary suggests reason as though it is not unusual.

looking for a story yet again

Once again I'm at a loss. I'm looking for a story where the protagonist is a police or detective, had already undergone transition. At one point she visits her Italian uncle suspected of being in the mafia or being some crime lord. Said uncle rankles her by repeatedly calling her using her previous Italian male name. Her many sisters seem to accept her during this family reunion. Also at one point she meets and talks with her ex-partner in the police. Forgot what the conflict of the story was. Thanks in advance :p

Avoid Firefox 4

Before shutting down here, I decided to upgrade to the Firefox 4. That was an hour and a half ago. Mozilla really screwed the pooch this time! Lots of cosmetic crap that wasn't necessary and really screws up the layout. Several of my most used apps won't work with FF4 It took me less than 5 minutes to decide to go back to the previous version. That's when the fun begin. Uninstalling FF4 did not roll back to the previous version, and no matter what version I tried to download I always ended up with FF4 again.

I enter the local hospital Wednesday morning to have an cardiac catheterization performed, with a distinct possibility of an angioplasty and stenting. I hope that's what happens. The other, (worse) alternative will be a bypass operation, which I really would like to avoid.

Anyway, by about this time tomorrow I should know, although the pre-surgical nurse did mention I could end up being loaded on a med-flight helo and flown to the nearest cardiac care center right away if things are bad enough. I guess that's the worst possibility. :(

Midnight Downloads

Back in 3/2010 I posted, and offered, the wonderful story Midnight Downloads by Wendy J. You can find that in my blog history. Since it has been a week over a year, I thought I would again offer it to anyone interested in reading this one. It can still be found in a few places. The copies I have are her edited files in chapter 1-30. And she had also released a few more chapters. I have through 50. The later chapters are incomplete, and a couple are just working ideas. Email if you are interested. I have sent this to probably 100 people over the years.

Hi folks. Joe of Joe Six-Pack fame here.

If you haven't seen it yet, I've put together a new tg fiction site called TG Storytime. The site is still in a low-profile beta mode, but I'd like to invite everyone here to give it a look, and I'd especially like the writers here to submit their work. It's not important if the work is new or old.

We're starting to gain some momentum, and every new story that's getting posted has been getting several hundred reads in a matter of hours.

This may be a bit off topic, but...

I couldn't let the opportunity pass to comment on the Skin Horse comic for Sunday 3/13. It is a wonderful homage to a great comic artist, Walt Kelly. Some of you will remember the Pogo comic strip in the papers.

Those who are not familiar with this true gem should find what you can and read it carefully. One of the other classic Pogo quotes is, "We have seen the enemy, and he is us."

Who could add to that?
