Funny little moments...

Life has been ok lately, not too good, not too bad, just sort of in cruise control which is good. I've been spending most of my time moving me and mom to the upstairs apartment as of late, which has been quite a chore, but has allowed me some artistic release in doing the necessary remodeling before our move. No rest for the wicked, but life is still sending me little funny moments.

The other day mom was helping me gather some of my "beauty" stuff to bring up and she saw my multipack of douce. She procedes to tell me that I "douce too much, your gonna get an infection." I was blown away, all the other mother/daughter douce conversations I'd seen(masengil commercials) had the mom in more of a supportive role, not condoning. I guess instead of a "mom I don't feel so fresh" moment it was a "hun your too fresh" moment. I briefly explained it was part of my after care due to the lube and dialation routine. These things never enter your mind when one transitions, I couldn't prepare for such a surreal moment if I wanted to, but man it was a nice little laugh.

Also thanks to my little brother, I found my youngest ex-step-brother on myspace. I had to know how things were going for him and my his brother. So I sent him a message asking. His reply "yeah it's me your ex-step brother, by the looks of things allot has changed in your world..." Understated but true, at least it wasn't an "f u u freak, stay away!" and his comment brought a smile to my face.

Other than that softball starts up soon, and I'm more than a bit nervous. Other than the ladies room it's my first trex into girls only space. I feel a little guilty like I have some sort of advantage, but then I remember I sucked at men's softball, so it's not like I'm a ringer or anything. I'm a somewhat skinny approaching middle aged woman who luckily is built more like gal than a guy, always have been, maybe that's why I sucked so bad before. Anyway I'm gonna tred lightly and hope I fit in. It could be a very good time and learning experience. It amazes me how in my late mid thirties I'm getting to experience the things I feel I was denied in my youth. Being part of a team was so important to me in the old male days, now I get to see the female side of sports. I only can hope the gals except me and the big scary dykes don't try to pick me up.

Love to all and until next time take care.
