The case of the exploding penis...

No it's not the new messed up Nancy Drew book, and the penis was actually a penis shaped cake. One of my best friends is going for surgery soon and they had a party to celebrate. So I borrowed an idea I heard about from another such party, made her a cake shaped like a penis, and carefully hid a balloon filled with strawberry syrup inside to give it that blood effect. It was so easy, before I frosted the cake I simply removed enough cake place the balloon in the hole, and frosted over it all. It got so many laughs it was worth it. She is going in the next few weeks, and while I will miss her while she is gone, I am so happy for her finally getting her body to match her mind. Her's has been a tough struggle, she has lost much more than I yet still goes on. God's speed hun, glad your dream is about to come true. Wish I could be there for you when you get out. Hopefully someday I'll get there myself.

As for me I've been very busy. Work has been hectic too say the least, now till Christmas is our busiest time of the year. When not working I've been frantically splitting my time between working on the book, and my kids blankets I am crocheting them for Christmas. I haven't had much time, but that is good because it keeps me from getting too down about not being any closer to my goal of surgery. At least I have the comfort that everyone treats me as a woman. That is the most important part of the trip afterall. It wouldn't matter if I had a vagina and nobody treated me as a woman. While I still have Mr. Happy everyone treats me as though I don't. While it is comforting, it is also frustrating to be so close yet so far. I guess I should be thankful for what I have.

Sorry for being so short and unfocused. Hopefully soon I can get back to a more regular schedule.

Love to all, take care, and g'nite.
