Hey guys and Gals, Just trying to put my feelers out of a new Editor, my old one lost the time to do it.
I've had Chapters 3 and 4 of my story ready for editing for awhile now, and I'm not blaming Piper one bit for not being able to do it.

So if anyone can help me out that would be fantastic :)

For all of you out there who suffer from this I found this Yahoo Article interesting especially the last paragraph.

Not sure if helps or not but would be nice if it does.

I don't know where this came from but the lyrics with some slight modifications are in italics

But my bustline just had some redistribution occur.

My bust measurements had been 34, 38, 35. They are now 33, 38, 36.

In plainer terms, below the bust used to have a 34 inch circumference, at the bust, 38 inch, and above the bust 35 inch. Now, below the bust is a 33 inch circumference, at the bust is still 38 inches, and above the bust is now 36 inches.

Even plainer terms, I lost an inch from my chest (not bust!) and added it to my cleavage (not bust!).

My bra size is still 38B, but it APPEARS more prominent.

Something I found interesting while randomly surfing wikipedia:

There is a new JulieO story on FM titled "Fine Print"

Or at least, she knows I'm wearing a bandeau sports bra.

Hi there

I am trying to juggle elderly parents, grandchildren and everything in between. Due to my parents, I've had to shelve any work for the time being, so that sucks, however, that's not why I'm writing this. I am trying to finish various works that I started ages ago, and making some progress... but I'm conscious that I tend to write for my own edification, so...

What I want to know as follows: - ....

....do you like slow and gradual transitions or rapid ones?

....is it the build up before, during or after that is the most interesting, or a bit of each?

After much frustration I am finally scheduled for surgery. I go to the Buffalo Veteran's Hospital on the third of October for pre-op stuff, then back up on the fifth for surgery and back the following day for post op stuff. Then about a week to two weeks for recovery and, hopefully, I will be back to what I laughingly refer to as normal, vision-wise.

An Ode to Virtues

Two weeks ago I updated my story, I am Not a Girl. It should read more smoothly. I just updated My Magic PDA posting a disclaimer. As follows,

Sept 20, 2011

Just thought i'd say that through the years may be a bit slow. Been busy cleaning around the house and we finally got our severance pay and unused sicktime pay from my old job....and I paid out a total of $1700. In taxes between those two checks.

So now I can pay bills and stuff. Plus been battleing bouts of depression because I don't know what I want to do now.

I've got two chapters almost ready to go, jus stuck on parts.

Only one comment for 'Mermaid'.

Ah well. It must be getting stale or boring or both.

I might as well wind it up.

Last night and again this morning, a local TV show had, so called represenatives of the TG/TS community on, who commented on Chaz Bono's appearance on Dancing With The Stars. One was quite positive and the other very negative.

I am wondering what the readers on this site think about his appearance? Does a person's opinion change, if they are or lean to M2F, are or lean to F2M, or are neither?

I do not want to get in trouble with Erin, so please keep the comments in line with the sites goals and ideals, and about Chaz's appearance on the show.

First Megyn Kelly, a Fox news anchor took the above mentioned Doctor to task for his "Chaz Bono Comments 'Adding To The Hate'." (I did not see much of this, so cannot comment on this) http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/09/14/megyn-kelly-keith-a...

Last night Bill O'Reilly had the (not)good doctor on his show. While O'Reilly could have asked tougher questions, he did refer to Chaz as "he," "him," "his," and "Mister Bono" the entire interview.

Holly is doing extremely well. There's talk of releasing her on Wednesday; a remarkably short time in hospital considering the surgery.

She sounded Great today.

More news as it develops.

Blessings and hugs,

Today we had a woman reported missing here in town. The 911 dispatch center put out a bulletin using the phone system with a description of the lady and said that her likely destination was the next street over from ours. Anyway, I told my mother and she thought it might be a good idea if I walked around the block to see if I could find her. I did that and didn't see her, so I turned around and headed back to my house. I had gone out and come back through the garage door. I wasn't home 5 minutes when the police came to my door.

I am currently at work. I now work at a cummins engine plant and today one of my coworkers desided to wear a kilt to work today. to tell you the truth it looks more like a tartan skirt than a kilt. I do have to admit that the kilt really gives him a really sweet ass. I hope that noone notices me staring at his ass all night.

Had a conversation with my brother yesterday. While a well-meaning guy, he managed to make me feel like crap by telling me I model male behavior well. He'll never understand why that hurts my feelings, sadly.

It's been a while since I did any writing or other creative stuff, but I plan on getting back into the swing of things.

To start with, I have started a new blog.
http://wild-beauty-photography.blogspot.com/

I am also updating my old blog.
http://nerd-in-the-country.blogspot.com/

Hopefully, I'll have some stories to offer before too long. Meanwhile, you can look at the pictures. ;-)

Not mtuch changed since my last blog. Passed the written part of drivers ed, made my mom, sisters, niece and the respectieve SO's eat sushi during my B)day dinner and, ..., I'm still officially on sickleave which is getting to be a real drag (understatement).

Looking for a car to buy for the hands on part of drivers ed (it seems to people outside Belgium that we have a weird drivers ed system or so I'm told). And that is making me count every cent. Especially with winter around the corner and the need for 'mazout' and gas.

PS starting to wonder who's been or lived in Belgium here

Tonight I said goodbye to the man I love, knowing that I likely will not ever see him again. I doubt that he knows anything of my feelings toward him. He is 29, I am 64, so it is well that I never utter a word about it. He did something that is just not done in his faith, he hugged me goodbye and when he did my heart broke.

As I sit in front of my PC, fingers busily creating on the keyboard, and then that moment arrives, you know, that moment when there simply is nothing there.

I often get them these days, probably my age, but it is common amongst those of us who try to create something for others to read. Yes, I'm talking about those BLOCK moments, when one's brain just can't seem to get the steam train of continuity going again to leave the station.

Holly will need your thoughts and prayers for longer than a blog usually stays visible so Erin is going to keep this one at the top of the blogs for a few days.

I got a complimented for being such a hard worker last night. Makes me feel nice inside. Meanwhile, I'm hard at work on my stories, and I hope to have something worth posting soon.

I can't seem to stay out of the hospital! I had an infection in my stump where I just had surgery. Fortunately, no surgery this time, and it looks like I'm back on track. I hope to be using my prosthetic again by next weekend, this one-legged crap has to end! Stairs are a major project! Oh well!

What ever you use as a computer, and no matter what your politics are, I think that most will find this youtube vid to be really inspiring. I won't say that these folks were lilly white morally but one can not dispute their contribution.

Hi to all. As you have most likely noticed, due to the lack of comments or e-mails, I have been gone for a few months. I see from checking on a few stories, that I have a LOT of reading to catch up on. I have been very busy these past few months taking care of my Mother (87) and assisting my Sister, as her husband was dealing with bladder cancer. Finally, after many treatments, he is considered at this moment in time free of cancer. Did you know, that bladder cancer is treated by injecting TB cells into the bladder?

ANYBODY HAVE AN UPDATE ON HOLLY??

Just look!

New Australian passports allow third gender option

Here's an alternative bit of waffle about the GabyCon - this time from my perspective :)

Having attended my first GabyCon last year and enjoyed it so much, I readily signed up to this year's. Despite not having ridden (rode?) a bicycle for the best part of 16 years (since going to uni), I was brave / foolish enough to volunteer to take part in this year's bicycle ride. But more on that later.

I've just spoken with Shelly. Holly is out of surgery. The doctors do not think the tumor has metastaticized.

Interesting article in the Guardian UK...

I just took a good look at myself in the mirror this morning in women's underclothing, with very light padding in my bra (the sort that instead of really adding any bust, it helps to firm up the existing)...

Ignoring everything but the figure itself, I look just like a cute, fit, high school girl.

Of course, I still have a beard and too much body hair to be a girl. There's also junior ruining the image... Really damned incredible, though, that I hadn't really noticed this happening until recently.

Well, my visit went as well as I could have hoped. The nurse took my BP, my weight, and my height, and then the doctor checked my heart, and my lungs, and took a medical history. He then went over what the hormones should do for me, and the risks involved. Then he gave me a permission slip to sign, and a sheet to take to a lab for my blood work. I'll go get that done in the morning, and hopefully, when I see him again in Oct., I will be given the green light to start the hormones.

I'm now 30" waist circumference, 38" hip, 0.79 ratio.

The body hair is continuing to become reduced, though it seems to have slowed down for now. I think it's directly linked to my growth cycles, instead of growing normally though, it's reverting. One time when I was working, I could swear I'd felt a ton of needle pricks all at once along my arms, and when I looked, everywhere that I'd felt that, the hair had turned pale and thinned drastically.

No change in the boob department.

I was born on January 22nd 1975, the first and only son of Keith and Vivian Leonard. I was named after my father and the connection with him pretty much ended there. From what I pieced together, he left when I was 6months old. I think the very next day my mother decided that she didn't want to stick around either. So there I was, 6 months old and unwanted. Maybe not completely unwanted, because there was Aunt Rosalie, there was always Aunt Roe. She took me in and raised me the best she could. When her husband got up and left us, we took on life together.

And that happened danged quick too.

It got quite warm at work today (at least 80+), so I took off my work uniform t-shirt and since my bandeau is plainly visible through the thin fabric of my tank tops, I took it off too and wrapped it up in the work t-shirt and put both in my gear bag to hide it.

Only the Friday before last, I wore my tanks without any thought, today, I felt extremely exposed not wearing a bra.

And yeah, I get uncomfortable when I'm not wearing my wristwatch too, always have ever since I first started wearing one. I'm weird, I know.

Sort of technical question. I'm pretty sure that it was somebody, or multiple somebodies, here who steered me to a couple of very handy Firefox add-ons: Dog Ears and Readability.

Well, I've been pushing myself too hard, apparently. Just after 3 am last night, my body decided it had enough, and I nearly collapsed. I caught myself at the last moment, but it was a wake-up call in more ways than one. I'm going to take it very easy the next couple of days, and be as good shape as I can for my appointment with the endo doc on Wednesday. Hugs to all.

That's right... I'm moving again. I will be in Pennsylvania before the end of September. Just thoughts folks'd like to know!
