For those of you who are post ops and living as a woman, would you do it again? I don't think I recall anyone telling me not to do it. It was after all my responsibilty.

I don't want a discussion with non ops here. It is too painful right now and I don't think I have anything to offer. I don't really want any comments.

As I woke up on the floor after being dumped back into my room. I was covered in blood, sweat, tears and dust. The outfit was ruined as was my hair and there were bruies starting to appear on my arms and my face. I was not sure how much of my now sore back was torn open from the abuse I had recieved. I was kind of secure in the knowledge I was in my room where I thought I might be safe.

I have a question that I can not answer. The answer would make life all the more confusing for me. I am not sure I want the question answered. A great many people I know are much nicer people than I am. They carry heavier loads, have more cares, and often they face bad health every single day.

Sephrena is doing great, and she wanted me to let you all know that all her operations are done and she is resting from them. She hopes to be out soon, but it may be another week. She also tells me how much she wants real food, and for some odd reason she's drooling at the food channel xD Why in the world would you watch that channel if you KNOW it's going to make you hungry, oh Seena-chan, you're so silly *huggles*

Sephrena gave me a call this morning, they removed gall bladder stones from her and today they are removing her gall bladder. She called to let everyone know that she is okay, and that her surgery is today. I'm going to keep her in my prayers though, and thank you so much, I'll make sure she knows how much you all care :D *huggles you all*

I will introduce myself, My name is Mellissa, however it was never this name. I was adopted at 4 months old by what I thought of was a loving family environment. Being so you young (male)was different and difficult. I realized at a early age I was different,I think 6 or so were my earliest memories of my dressing.

Erin's mom passed away at about 10 AM EST this morning. Erin is doing okay at this point and will be busy with arrangements for her mom over the next few days. Her brother is coming down from northern CA for the weekend.

Sigh. Yes I am still alive and kicking for any and all who really gives a rats arse or have even heard of me which I don't think either of the above is likely. I am the proprietess of Beverly's Balcony, which has been around for a number of years in all it's disfunctioning and picturesque glory. I have even been registered user and silent participant of other sites including this excellent one.

Ok, I tried looking at the standard stylesheets that come with the site, and found several styles that were coded loosely enough to access for other purposes.

Mom is still in the ICU but the doctor's seem upbeat. I'm home. Tomorrow is my brother's birthday. Still got bronchitis but I think I've got it on the run.

Hugs to all,
Erin

Mom's doing better today, she's off the vent and if she can stay off the vent till tomorrow they will probably release her from ICU Wednesday.

Happy Christmas Everyone,
Erin

I've been posting a story for someone that is REALLY excellent. It was originally posted only on Fictionmania and as I know a lot of people don't frequent that site from here I asked him a few times if I could post it here. The story called "Dancing on Daddy's Shoes" is one of the best if not the best I've read in ages for this genre.

This is awful. The other day I read a story that I believe was reasonably short, or perhaps it is just a chapter of it? It was just wonderfully romantic, and I left a comment to the effect.

Yesterday, I got a PM from Nick B saying thank you for the nice comment, but he was confused as to what story I was commenting on. Well, for the life of me, I can not remember.

I have to shamefully admit that my story "Changed by Aliens" has some elements in it that I can only see as plagiarism. Over the years, I have read thousands of stories and I had forgotten about the story that bears striking resemblence to mine.

I must admitt that I hesitated to read Healing a Princess because it is not TG. However, if I had not read it then I would have missed out on one of the best stories I have seen in a while.

Sure, there are some other stories that I follow, installment by installment like a panting fan.

While I am a confirmed "head banger rock fan", I also enjoy many other kinds of music, except old Country, trancer, and electronic trash.

I was recently exposed to a live performance of Bach and found it really interesting. I have loved Handel's Messiah for years.
