Cyrsti's Condo

As you have probably noticed, things have changed around here in Cyrsti's Condo.

Miss Twist However, through the magic of Al Gore's internet today I'm going to do a little blog bouncing. First we are going to stop off at Callie's Blog T-Central  and take a look at a post called Girl Meets Boy Dressed as Girl. (By the way if you haven't been there, Callie calls her blog: " Just a mondo but not complete listing of Trans-Related Bloggers and News Sites" It's amazing, but now the bounce. The actual post comes from a blog called "Miss Twist Speaks her brains." Here's an excerpt from her recent Valentines post: " I’ve already talked about how a number of guys have responded to Twist; what about women? I’m a heterosexual guy in a s
