Rain here.
I went to Asheville yesterday, and stayed later to visit some before going down the mountain. Down here there were a lot of trees down in the northern part of the county. The power had gone off at the house, but was back by the time I got home (21:00). There was a thunderstorm during the night.
I used to get ma'am'ed during my 45 years of boy-mode and it drove me nuts.
Now that I have accepted girl-mode I find it quite pleasant.
Either way, being miss gendered is quite disturbing. I upon a rare occasion might get sir'ed by strangers and it's quite annoying.
Good morning Ash,
Welcome to TransPulseForums, I have a young neighbor who plays several brass instruments who lives behind my house. He is always practicing and I could listen to them for hours, well I guess I have listened to them for hours, and my favorite is when they play the low tones on the French Horn.
Best wishes,

Good morning everyone,
I had my first cup of coffee this morning with my wife, my second was a 20oz travel mug on the way to the airport. Once clearing TSA, I bought another 20oz to pass the time at the boarding gate. I’m flying Indy to Baltimore, then driving to Wilmington, DE for my last teaching engagement at the DE State Fire School.
Hugs,

In my opinion, the gender neutral version of sir or ma'am is the omission of such honorifics.
"Excuse me, sir" becomes simply, "Excuse me", or better yet, "Excuse me, please."
"Yes, ma'am" becomes "Yes", or depending on the context, "Yes, it would be my pleasure" or "Yes, that is correct."
Else, to replace it with a commonly known neutral term such as friend, or credentialed or action-role-oriented term depending on the situation such as teacher, doctor, driver, or server.
And learn names when you can. It's a little known fact that MOST people are bad with names. So if you've ever told someone, "I'm bad with names", you're simply affirming you're typical in that way. A name, just like any other factoid, requires effort to commit to memory. And there are strategies which help.
almost 45 min later. Still in self pity mode. I cannot figure out my wife. I shared a loving post on Facebook to my wife. Today she posts, you are my prayer. Yet, last week she puts up a post diragitory towards trans people. Does she not relate to me being trans?

Hi Vivelacors!! Like everyone else said, it is never too late to be you. It does feel too late at times but we can still enjoy our femininity every day, moment by moment!!

Well we have the white rain, about 2 inches. Work is still terrible, with me making stupid little mistakes. Yet, to the boss it is the end of the world. Still on the hunt for another.
life just still sucks for me. I just wish I could be happy for a day. I'd even settle for a couple hours.

no rain here haha
Got some tea, in my AP class where we're about to discuss the "pleasant topic of mass atrocities" -my teacher
The AP test is coming up soon, so hopefully I'll be able to pass that with good marks :)
