Sometimes something comes along that you just have to share!

ABOUT THE WRITER, Dave Barry is a Pulitzer Prize-winning humor columnist for the Miami Herald.

She once wrote her name in the snow... in yellow cursive.
Boys love the fact she can't get pregnant.
Andrej Pejic looks like a lumberjack next to her.
She is.....

It finally happened! DOMA is unconstitutional!

In the last couple of days, I've had a couple of different people at different stores treat me like a woman, and it feels really good when it happens.

Serial or not?

I'll probably post this on the FM Hyperboard as well. I generally try to avoid multi-site cross-posting, but in this case I feel it might be beneficial.

Well I've taken the plunge, just got back from my Docs after asking for a referal to Gender Shrink.

Ok, folks I need your help and opinions on something that happened at work. I need to know if I am being overly sensitive because of my gender issues or do I have a valid complaint. I'm going to number these so you can follow the course of events.

1. On Monday our store tech room was getting audited so repair supervisor was at the store but not in tech room when this happened. My fellow tech was out of the room but my store manager was sitting in the room. While repairing a phone the volume button flew out of the phone bounced off my chest and ricocheted under my desk.

This is an interesting community, to say the least. I know that many here are not writers or aspiring writers; however, it amazes me how some writers are so creative, and so damn good. Some writers complain that they could not grind out the next five thousand words of a story so they won't be posting this week. Others turn out charming little short stories every month or so that are interesting, and with enough varience to make them seem like new stories. Some are like Christmas trees. They're like Douglas Firs with different decorations.

Hello, I'm Back

As most will know, I obtained custody of my daughter over two years ago.

today. Book 10 is nearly complete, look out for part 4's release at the weekend with the full volume next week.

Last Sunday I went out with the 'big-boys' for the usual Sunday morning club ride. Nothing unusual except I was wearing some rather sexy lingerie under my winter cycling Lycra which tends to be heavier and thicker than the lightweight summer kit. The boys do know about me but usually I cycle with the second string group who comprise older men, most of the fitter ladies and me, Bev ...
However last Sunday by an unusual quirk only about 12 people turned up at 10 am so we decided to all go together.

"You up for this Shirley, Bev, Liz?" Asks Spot, the club captain.

I'm sure that nearly everyone here is familiar with the uncomfortable feeling of having to put up with your gender presentation and physical sex not matching exactly at one point or another. For me, it's a problem I used to have a lot.

Then I got fat again.

Today, David Cameron and Alex Salmon signed a contract to hold a referendum in Scotland to determine if it should remain as part of the United Kingdom, become a separate country, or, perhaps, chose some status incorporating features of both. This referendum is scheduled for 2014, so there will be plenty of time to discuss the pros and cons, coming to a consensus.

Been thinking a lot about my attractions to people since I did the "elephant in the room" post, and I found something odd looking back at the girls I had crushes on.

I come to this site almost daily. I see blogs that seem to pique my interst and others that don't.

Yesterday I talked about being in the company of another trans girl suffering with a lack of confidence in her looks, despite the fact she is really good looking, and last night, it was like God decided to drive the point home to me.

I sat with some other girls at work on our lunch break, and listened as one talked about her struggles with her appearance, and how even now as an adult she sometimes finds it an issue.

And this is a genetic girl and a rather pretty one at that telling this story.

I've been online for over ten years now. From the very beginning it amazed me that the level of acceptance and compassion was as high as it was, and is.

So I'm going to be needing to do permanent hair removal, electrolysis, to my face. This is supposed to be EXTREMELY painful... I've been holding off on really looking into getting started on it partially because of the cost of the procedure itself when done professionally, and partially because of the added cost of getting myself anesthetized beforehand.

There are products out there for around $20 that can do at-home galvanic electrolysis, so that's not really a big problem if I can just get up the gumption to DIY it...

so anyway …

Last night I went to the pot-luck for our trans support group, and discovered something interesting.

Chapter 24 of Belle is up and to my utter surprise I'm still going!

I may not be the best at writing but something is driving me to write this story.

I left my home about 20 minutes ago to make a quick stop at the grocery store. When I came out of the store, I clicked my remote to unlock my car doors and, as I got in, I clicked it again to lock them. As I inserted the key to start the car, someone came up on the passenger side and tried to open the door. I looked over to see a male pulling on the door handle. He shouted that I better open the door or... I didn't stick around to hear the rest. I dropped the car into drive and floored the gas pedal, almost hitting two other cars on the way.

After the first attempt to continue this story was eaten, by the universal bit bucket in the sky the freshly totally reworked model 2x has been sent to the editors. I will be working on the HTML end as soon as I get it back from the Editor. Please cross your fingers the HTML thing has me a bit intimidated but my editor will be providing me a template to work with.
Shivers see you all soon.

Anyone seen the Alexandra Stan video for Lemonade?

Well, I've finished the next chapter of Sissy's Story, or should I say Gina's Story. It is starting a new section of her life, so it's going to be a different series. Sissy no more, now Gina.

One of our friends, and a huge asset to BCTS, has come upon troubled water in her life and needs a bridge to help her across. WE CAN BE THAT BRIDGE! Erin and I have been working behind the scenes to try to help this shining "Silver Girl" who has given so much of herself to help others without asking for anything in return.

Reminds you of a song? It is: One of my favorites... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjNgn4r6SOA&feature=related

I think I've posted a blog asking this same question in the past, but I can't remember and I can't find it, so I'll just go ahead and do it again.

How many people here prefer writing their stories by hand before taking them to the screen?

The evidence seems to be stacking up against the former champion cyclist, as a cheat and a serial doper, although anything Tyler Hamilton said I would dismiss as coming from the mouth of a real slime ball.

I suppose one has to view it in context, and many of the teams were doping or turned a blind eye to it; and if you wanted to beat the dopers, you had to dope too, because no one in authority would listen. It's no excuse, it's still cheating and should have no place in sport.

Hi, I'm wring a story based on James Cameron's Avatar and I'm looking for someone to edit the story and maybe suggest ways to make it better.

I'm really starting to become paranoid. It started with the hearing of someone call out my name in my house the other night and the house being empty. Now I got this eerie feeling that someone is planning to burn down my house. I keep waiting to pull up my street and then be pinned in by the police, or FBI.

Just wondering what happened to the stories by Topsy, I can't seem to find them anywhere on BC and I really enjoyed them.

my appointment is in just 2 hours

A week ago Monday we equaled the number of stories and chapters that FictionMania has archived and by Thursday we had definitely passed their mark, currently we have about 40 more stories than they are showing, though both sites have seen new stories posted in the past week.

Thanks everyone!

Hugs,
Erin

Recently I made a post that was pretty down. I am getting better, working with my GT helps, but still it creeps up on me sometimes. If I made anyone nervous I apologize, overall many of you are better friends than I have in life.

One of my co-workers told me I'm kind of an ambassador, which I kinda struggled with as a concept.

I knew someone - someone from work who I thought of as a friend, but she probably didn't.   She was a pretty brunette, very popular, super smart, outgoing, lots of friends and very ambitious (but in the good sense of the word).  I didn't know her too well, really, and despite having met her face-to-face just a few times, I liked her a lot, and I thought of her as a friend, like I said.   I just hope that she remembered me in the same way, although I think that was a futile hope, given how many people she knew.

... get 25,000,000 hits very soon. Maybe we should have a contest to see who gets the time the closest. Maybe George Carlin's comment about the future is appropriate.

OK, hold onto your hats. If you just do a casual search on the internet, you will find that there are 2, sometimes 3 girls being born for every boy. In Russia, the boys are smaller and less healthy also. This may lead to all sorts of conclusions about T folk. I am seeing a lot of it in Mormon families because they tend to have 4-7 children.

Hi everybody. I don't have a computer right now, and I am using my daughter's. The problem is, I don't see a wordpad or any other writing format I can use to continue my stories. So, to everybody who reads my stories, please be patient until I can get this sorted out.

Well, last night at work, we were sharing some stories about our respective childhoods, and I talked about snapping and almost killing my stepfather, ending with the statement "I'm dangerous."

Not to make too much of a big deal about it but in paying a large bill related to keeping the site online, I unintentionally used a debit card instead of a credit card. Because of other checks and debits outstanding on the account (it's the one hooked to Hatbox and the one I use to pay costs associated with keeping all the sites online), I'm going to overdraft by about $60 bucks on Monday.

So any payments into the Hatbox before that will be very much appreciated and will save me about $35 in overdraft fees.
