Over the Top!!!!
"Nah" Just four drag queens doing their thing during the Sao Paulo, Brazil gay parade/march...attended by hundreds of thousands.
It's Swimming Time!
Undoubtedly, the highlight to last week was going with Liz to take advantage of Target's swimming suit sale.
Needless to say I was nervous imagining myself in a bathing suit at all, or trying one on in a public fitting room. But I hitched up my big girl panties and moved forward.
As usually happens nothing is as bad as perceived and it turned out I couldn't try on some of the suits anyhow due to hygienic reasons.
So now I am the proud owner of my first women's bathing suit-for better or for worse.
The plan is, when Liz and I go on our next vacation and see a nearly empty pool...shazam!!!!
In the meantime, did you know Target's sales have seen a decrease after their all inclusive transgender bathroom policy? So, if you are looking to buy something which Target carries, please go out of your way to check them out!
Or, on your way too!!!!

A Day on the Town
A couple comments on "The Bitch" post from regulars Mandy (first) and Connie:
"I wonder if maybe she didn't want to serve you, and upped the "price" by a couple dollars to encourage you to go elsewhere. If that was her thought process, it worked.
Or maybe it was her real price, and she glared, hoping you'd go elsewhere. If that was her thought process, it also worked.
We'll never know what would have happened if you had bought from her. "Extra ingredients" in the sandwich - like too much seasoning? Pork from yesterday's burned batch? Or worse?
Could well be she's from one of the states stirring the pot on trans issues...probably best you walked away!
Mandy"
Thanks Mandy, I guess I was spoiled and hadn't seen that kind of hateful reaction from another human being (I think) in a while. Plus, we can only guess where the "too much seasoning" could have come from.
And of course Connie said it best "And I thought being a transgender person was no real picnic...Go figure (or go show it off). ;)
Most importantly though (I think) she made her point and I made mine.
