Slept funny, and now I'm in serious pain. Took as many pain meds as I can, and it doesnt touch it.

Some of the time I can be prone to acts of sheer brilliance. Most of the time I prove myself to be adequate and the rest of the time I fuck up.

I have royally cocked up this time and I hope you will forgive me for having done so.

Now there are heaps of you you out there that love serials. Ang's Bike serial is getting to be more like The Archers than simply a long story and I'm sure there are others too.

I was thinking about spring yesterday. Right now, with a sweater and a coat on every time I go out, I dont have to worry about the wrong person (ie: my ex) noticing the fact that I'm in ladies clothes. Wont be able to do that once it gets warm, so I'm not sure what I'll do.

Ah, well.

I reside in Delaware and am wondering howI can meet others like me with out having to join an online porno site (my idea of what the sites are). I am not looking for a one night stand, I am looking for people to talk to to be able to discuss how I really feel somedays.
I went online and the sites for Delaware are listed but the meeting places no longer exist.
Driving any length of distance outside of Delaware is almost a day trip.
Any one with any ideas?

Here's a site that generates fake newspaper headlines. Thought it might prove useful to some of the authors here.

I've Got It!

There was a recent blog about significant people in ones life having dementia.

My dad died of Alzheimer's at age 72 in '96. There are family stories of men dieing from doing crazy things, in old age, in my dad's family. I think the family might be a hereditary propensity toward Alzheimer's. My mom has Alz now at age 87; she's almost completely gone mentally. There is no evidence that hers has a genetic component.

Why does everything always happen at the same time? I've had this cold for well over a week now, and it's so bad I can cough in my sleep, often without waking. It's also worked it's way down into my chest, and up into my sinuses...

So the bad weather happens just about now as well, and to top it all I just accidentally trashed one of my servers... twice.

Well, I somehow lost my glasses today. I'm really frustrated with myself.

Just saying thank you for the kinds words regarding my previous stories. I thought I was done after the second installment of the Cedar Falls epic. Programmed and Reprogrammed interested many of you. Thank you for that. Presently I am working on a "tweener". A story crammed between the timeline of Programmed and Reprogrammed. I crossed the fifty thousand word line and am searching for another ten k for chapter six.

My last blog was about my computer. My phone has decided to join the wifi antenna of my computer in the land of the dead. I am using a roommates computer, but he's really picky about what sites people visit on it, so until I can get my computer a new antenna, I will just be at home, writing....if I can keep the stupid cats out of my computer chair

Hello again. If you're wondering where the first part of this went, go here. I imagine a lot of people will have to click the link since I only got eighty some odd hits. :( (Half a dozen blogs were posted within an hour of part 1 so it got pushed off the page before hardly anyone could see it.)

OK... so I can relate.

"These are the days that try men's souls." I don't know who said it but it certainly holds true for me in these last months.

My Mother is now in the End Game of Dementia, where they tell me there is no reversal to better times or more lucid thoughts on her part.

I finalized on the house on Monday, so I am now an owner of property. I've had the plumber come out and got those little odds and ends taken care of. I also had the outside pressure washed and the yard work done. On this coming Monday, I have the exterminator coming out to deal with the termites and the spiders (ICK!!!) and all the little carpenter ants. I've had the bed and the living room delivered, so technically I can sleep there. But I still have no wires. Actually, that's a lie, I have two hundred feet of wire, it's sitting in a coil on the counter.

So I am mildly surprised to find myself posting another bit on my blog. In fact just typing 'my blog' seems weird to me, but cool anyway. I have been kind of having a pause over the last month. Personally I find christmas and New Year a very sad time of year and it gets me down. However there are changes on the way. My wife and I have made the decision to move South asap, and get a fresh start. Both of us feel much better just from making that decision. So now we are making preparations and selling stuff of to get moved. 2012 is gonna be a big year.

I hit that darn save button twice again-can someone remove the second submission? Thank you!

Blake Lively Tells 'Elle' If She Has Sons 'They Better Be Trannies’

I've posted blogs containing news items that I think would be of interest to this community, on several occassions, but have not actually commented on the news item. I have to comment tonight.

I do not know anything about this actress, in fact never heard of her before seeing the article, but the woman has to be deranged, and would be a dangerous parent.

Apparently, this self confessed 'sex-addict' confessed on national day time television that she'd had over a thousand male lovers, then revealed she'd had a sex change.

She apparently wanted to do a photoshoot with the Sun. Attention seeking or what? Voice was quite good though.

Sadder than any character I could dream up in my stories.

Another year, another Wellington Sevens rugby tournament, along with vast numbers of fans in fancy dress: 2012 Wellington Sevens fans gallery.

That I'm taking a bit of a break from writing or I have been and will continue to until the feeling comes back to write. Between RF family obligations and a full time job I just need a break from something so I can do a lot of other things I've been meaning to do.

With no shortage of great writers here I know you'll be fine.

The wifi antenna on my computer is going bad. I got spotty internet on the computer at best, this is from my phone.

I'll be getting a new antenna soon, just need the money. In the mean time I'm trying to get ahead on Through the years.

I have not been around much as of late. Some few of you may have noticed and/or missed me, but I rather suspect that with the plethora of new talent and engaging stories, there're also a lot of new readers -- and the vast majority probably haven't a clue even who I am.

Once again, my leg has derailed any plans I may have had, but they let me out and I'll have the next Wild Magic up in a little while.

Well, despite still fighting the flu, I had a productive day. I got my laundry done, and took my bottles to be recycled. I took the money I got from that and spent some on getting my hair done, which was a nice experience for me since I asked them to do a more feminine style, and they had no issue with it. Again, the amazing tolerance of Canadians comes through.

It just occurred to me that we have not seen anything since 2008, when Teddie posted her story Faith. I wondered if anyone knew if she was okay, quit writing, moved on, or ??????

Thailand's Transgender Flight Attendants: PC Air Takes On Groundbreaking Cabin Crew

I guess these girls would have problems with flying into Canada based on the information in my last blog about Canada's law regarding the identity of folks flying. Maybe there is an exception for flight crews.

Based on the photos these women have no problem passing in public.

I'm hoping that some of you, especially those with Kindles, Old and New, can test my Mobi eBook outputs. You can compare with the other outputs as well. :)

this week, not perfect but its getting there!

Hope you enjoy this weeks edition, leave lots of Kudos!

Hi all. You can just blame EOF, Lilith and others here for this, but I'm going to try getting in on the Universe creating thing. Not that I don't already, but this time it's going to be officially OPEN! I thought I'd post this blog, and perhaps others as I finish getting things ready, to see if there's any interest.

A short while ago I placed a post here about a story idea that I was mulling around in my head of a single father and his child who is in a m2f transition. I wanted the story to focus more on the father's turmoil of dealing with a 'transitioning' child than with the child itself. I had a pretty good idea of how I wanted to start the story and where I wanted it to end...just no real idea of how to get from 'A' to 'B' so I 'put it out there' and people responded.

It's been a while, and a LOT has happened. I even posted another segment in my slowly developing serial. But, that's not the topic of this blog. Life HAS been interesting. Yes, I think that's the right term, interesting.

Well, chapter 7 of "The Dead Kid Returns" is up. It might have to sustain everyone for a while, I'm a little blocked.

Canada-bans-trans-people-from-flying

In reading the blog about the child sent to a psychiatric ward in Germany, I saw the following. That was terrible but affects only one child. One is of course too much.

But the following will affect many.

Canada-bans-trans-people-from-flying

I do not know how the folks here who are transitioning handle Department of Homeland Security Pre-flight checks, but the ban in supposedly "liberal" Canada, must be frightening. Poor Dorothy and I assume others who may have to deal with this.

Okay, so this is a little weird. I'm on my way home this morning, and the song "Lose Yourself" comes on, and I just start crying, tears running down my cheeks as the song plays. I mean, I know I'm a bit more emotional than normal, but I hadnt expected that. Anybody else have a song that makes them cry for no good reason?

If you recall I posted "'New Message from sexydater' - chapter 2". I wasn't satisfied with it so I'm rewriting and adding on to it, the only thing is, I'm blocked. Maybe someone can help.
Here are a few keywords I may use them, I might not, tell me what comes into your mind when you see the words:

TERRORIST, THUG, CAPTURE

Thanks for your help. ;=)

Since I began to seriously began to address my different-ness in 2001 the good folks at this site have carried me through crisis after crisis; 5 hospitalizations for mental breakdown, a SRS operation, the loss of my family and everything I cared about in life. I was three days from living on the street before things slowly began to turn around. It took years, 10 of them to finally feel like I really wanted to live again, and that did not begin to happen until early last March.

I have been here at BC|TC for slightly longer than 12 weeks and have over 2000 'Kudos' for my stories...to me that's a really big deal and I appreciate them! I only hope to continue to produce stories that people here want to read.

Thanks!

I don't know how many people are looking towards the next pinkilicios birthday and I hate to do this: But the continuation will probably be delayed further.

I am about to close on a house so that means moving after a few repairs get done (like rewiring the place because someone stole the copper wires). I would pull the story down, but don't see the point in that.

Here's to more prolific writing in a new place: hopefully one more Gatorade bottle friendly!!!

I am a new member here, but have been a reader for some time. I recently wrote PRIVATELY to an author here. She alerted me to the number of negative comments she had received for one particular story and we discussed the pain such negativity can cause in the mind of the writer. Can I make a suggestion? There is a management tool called the 'Praise Sandwich' in which the first paragraph is something positive or praise-worthy; the second and third (if necessary) can be something negative or critical, and the final paragraph again something positive.

Okay, so I went to the zoo yesterday, which was fun. Went to the Meerkat area and I thought about the movie Fierce Creatures, where someone claimed that they were the piranha of the Serengeti. So that amused me a lot.

What surprise does Angharad have up her and Bonzi's sleeves for issue 1600 of Bike?

Story one: A boy dressing as a girl, living with a step mom and father who seem to not care, going to a bad school with gangs and one of the gang leaders takes a shine to her. I don't think it was finished though.

The second one is where a boy's Granny dies and she leaves him a mini cooper that is pink and a not about his grandpa being a cross dresser.
