Public Relations

August 1, 2016

Sometimes I feel as though I am in public relations simply by stepping outside of my door.  Well, maybe even when I am not stepping outside my door; as in my previous post on Register.com.  It’s similar to a thought I heard Dennis Prager discussing once.  While I am not a lock-step believer in everything that he says, this one time he said something along the lines of – ‘if you are a member of a minority group then you…

On Love – Response to Comment

June 16, 2016

Wow, I have been avoiding responding well to this comment, and I am so sorry!  I think that I have been avoiding it because I don’t think I will have good answers.  Ahh… my own insecurities bounding to the forefront again, huh?  It’s just that what is written in this readers comment is so important and I wish I had some sort of magic that could help.  Okay….. here we go!! I’ve posted here before, and asked a question or…

At The Beach

June 3, 2016

Maybe you were expecting bikini pictures?  If so, sorry to disappoint.  It is far too cold for bikinis at the beach!!  Brrrr!!!!  But you do get to see the nice new Columbia fleece jacket I picked up recently for a steal at 30 bucks!!  Woo-Hoo!!  And maybe at some point I will actually do an outfit post on what I am fully wearing.  But not today. These photos were taken prior to the dinner that I wrote about in my…

They’re Just Boobs

May 18, 2016

Jules and I live about 10 minutes away from a fairly small lake.  Well, it is supposed to be a larger lake, but in the 12 or so years that we have lived in this area the lake has never filled up.  So…. it is a fairly small lake.  But it is a fun lake.  We often travel down to it, drive down to the shore, back up the truck, through the fishing lines out, and let the dogs run…

Which Me is the Real Me?

May 6, 2016

Wow, those two photos combined look really weird!  I have seen this sort of thing done by others and I thought I would give it a try.  Kind of interesting.  Kind of gives me a slightly different view of myself.  It is how I think of my own identity, but it is weird seeing both presentations of me mixed together. It kind of reminds me of a lyric from Eminem – “Will the real Slim Shady please stand up?”  Funny.  It…

How Happy – How Sad

May 3, 2016

The very first time Jules and I took our picture with me dressed as a woman was about 10 years ago.  That particular day she and I decided to have a private wedding ceremony where we unofficially remarried each other while I was dressed as a woman.  That photo is the one pictured above.  And I officially do NOT like that photo.  I love what happened on that day, but wow, do I dislike the photos.  None of those photos…

Gender Fluid? Gender Phooey!

April 21, 2016

Frequently when I attempt to discuss my gender with others, they will say, ‘oh, well you are gender fluid.’   As of late, it has been occurring so much, that when I hear it, I throw up a little in my mouth.  Okay, well that just may be a bit of an exaggeration, but seriously, I am a bit sick of people telling me that I am gender fluid. Do you know what gender fluid means people?  Let’s take a…
