Horror Scope

The clouds have parted kids and it's time for star gazing in Cyrsti's Condo. Yes it's time for another "Horrorscope":

Libra (September 23-October 22): You will need to make a choice between two people you love, as one will need priority over the other. Sacrifice sucks, but it is do or die time and where you place your energy now will matter. However, that doesn’t mean you have to give up anyone; just think of it as prioritizing. But don’t be shortsighted, as fate will pay out accordingly from here.

WELL!  Let me see if I can sort through this and if I do, I will get back with you!!!  OK I'm back.

First of all, love is a word I don't toss around easily. Basically there are only three people I love and one is me! Just kidding but you do have to like yourself to like others. The other two are personal non competing personages in my life. So I'm just going to abstain on this "scope" and wait till next week! Yes procrastination is fun!

Please remember "Horrorscope" is my term and you can go to theFrisky for yours!

While you are there, I'm going to give you another link you may want to take a quick look at.
I read so many notes here and there from transgender women who are waiting for that wonderful guy to show up and sweep them away  You probably know a big portion of the female population is in the same boat as you and they think it is the Titantic! This however is a fun look at the dating dance  and is written in a delicious cynical prose!
from a young genetic woman's viewpoint  Believe me,  it's not boring
It's called The Slut Shamer

Carlotta

From the Star Observer:


"Australian transgender pioneer and Sydney nightlife royalty, Carlotta, (above) will have her groundbreaking story told in an upcoming ABC1 telemovie. The first transgender surgery patient to come to public attention – and notoriety – in the 1970s, Carlotta was the headline act of the iconic Kings Cross cabaret show Les Girls in 1960s and ’70s. The performer collaborated with writer David Hannam to tell her inspiring story. Carlotta will be a “universal story about identity, family, tolerance and acceptance”, the ABC said today. “Carlotta lays bare the life of a confused teenager named Richard, his flight into the hedonistic Kings Cross of the ’60s and ’70s, and his transformation into Carol.”


Here's your link!  Unfortunately it looks as if a genetic actress will play the part of Carlotta.

Jessica YES!

As the sun rises over the snow capped mountains and the clear blue beaches, I'm enjoying a morning "cup o joe" on my rear deck here in Cyrsti's Condo...Huh? Just kidding kids, none of that stuff here where I live in Ohio! But, life (along with the traffic) continues to move by at "warped" speed**...a take off from the "Star Trek" movin picture shows of which there is a new one coming out soon.

 Speaking of coming out, I can't think of a more effective way to do it than Jessica last night on the television network VH 1.   The Jessica I'm speaking of also hosts the very entertaining and accomplished Jessica Who web site which is linked here in our blog. Last night as I was finishing my normal day of moving from one unmovable object to another I happened upon a show called "I married a...Cross Dresser". I quickly turned it on and saw a very familiar face Jessica/Louis and thought wow I have chatted with her and her she is!!! Then I began to wonder how in the world had I almost missed this?  DUH! That's must have been what that link to her blog was all about...duh! Like I said I'm used to spending periods of time in other dimensions or being referred to as a "ditz"

Bottom line is I cannot say how wonderful the interaction between Jessica,  wife PG and Mom was portrayed. The raw emotions we encounter as transgender, cross dresser or transsexual persons were all on display. I can't speak for Jessica but I really don't believe in using the "brave" term with me so I won't with her and PG. I will say her coming out was courageous and complete. If you are an acquaintance of Louis today, you met Jessica last night!

Obviously the more Jessica's of the world who are able to gain access to such a major public platform and use it in such a positive way will go light years (Star Trek again) in helping others out of very dark closets!

I'm adding one of the video's from the show for you plus a couple links to follow for more!

Thanks Jess!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




**I use two twisted terms from the Star Trek movin' picture shows of which there is a new one coming out soon. The other favorite term is "Beam me up Scotty, there is no intelligent life down here".
