Ah, Smokey Robinson's My Girl—love that to dance to. And Satisfaction—Charlie sure makes the rhythm pocket work.

Tommy Bolin - what a guitarist yet lost soul - found dead with about every type of drug in him at the age of 25. Here are some examples of his work..........

This song came to mind when my son-in-law hid behind religion (don't know last time he stepped into a church) as an excuse.....

This song was so emotional for me when I just listened to it again after so many years (possibly before transition). The lyrics stood out more than ever for me. I never realized how many of the words and descriptions are metaphors of a story that applies to my life growing up as a man struggling with that whole thing and then finally becoming the woman I am today.

 

 

In this proud land we grew up strong

We were wanted all along

I was taught to fight, taught to win

I never thought I could fail

 

No fight left or so it seems

I am a man whose dreams have all deserted

I've changed my face, I've changed my name

But no-one wants you when you lose

 

Don't give up 'cause you have friends

Don't give up you're not beaten yet

Don't give up I know you can make it good

 

Though I saw it all around

Never thought that I could be affected

Thought that we'd be last to go

It is so strange the way things turn

Drove the night toward my home

The place that I was born,  on the lakeside

As daylight broke, I saw the earth

The trees had burned down to the ground

 

Don't give up you still have us

Don't give up we don't need much of anything

Don't give up  'cause somewhere there's a place where we belong

 

Rest your head

You worry too much

It's going to be alright

When times get rough

You can fall back on us

Don't give up

Please don't give up

 

Got to walk out of here

I can't take anymore

Going to stand on that bridge

Keep my eyes down below

Whatever may come

and whatever may go

That river's flowing

That river's flowing

 

Moved on to another town

Tried hard to settle down

For every job, so many men

So many men no-one needs

 

Don't give up 'cause you have friends

Don't give up you're not the only one

Don't give up no reason to be ashamed

Don't give up you still have us

Don't give up now we're proud of who you are

Don't give up you know it's never been easy

Don't give up 'cause I believe there's a place

There's a place 

Where we belong

 

Don't give up

Don't give up

Don't give up

A timely song by Eric Clapton (2021), tell it, like it is, he has a knack for that....

@Susan R I had never heard that song before, and it really touched my inner being to the core. it makes me grateful that I am now on the journey to become the woman I have always wanted to be.

Been listening to a remastered version of "The Essential Stevie Ray Vaughn" CD.  I had forgotten what a talented guitar player he was.  Another artistic genius who's life was tragically cut short.

      Heck they took off three grand on that one. That is massive! Then again your nest isn't small either so I guess would definitely come in handy.

      Congrats on T <3   The height problem I think is an issue for a lot of trans guys, unfortunately. I know more tall cis women than short cis men, so it especially stands out to me whenever I'm in a room. I'm hoping for your voice to drop soon, good luck! (I've heard it feels a little bit like a cold? If that's true, hope it'll feel better quickly and that it's worth it!)

      Hi Raine, my obstacles are that I'm 5"2 and always will be at the age of 34. I have size 5 feet, so it's difficult to find shoes, not alot of options, have to go to the teen boy bit. My voice was an issue, but T is starting to help me stay in the lower range of my fem voice, and I'm hoping it will drop soon.

      I just like how our posts complimented each other.  Your point about publicity of pride events and that culture seemed to be spot on.  My culture and mindset is so different that I'm barely aware that things like that are going on.  I don't watch news and I'm very much into professional life and life-long learning.  There are all kinds of cultures out there.  Thanks for sharing your insights.

      Here, the public image of LGBTQ+ is formed from the limited contact of the Pride Parade, which seems to always attract a few people who are into flamboyant sensationalism and inappropriate conduct, so there are arrests for lewd conduct, indecent exposure and public disorder.  Those are the people the news media always covers at the parade, as if everyone LGBTQ+ was like that.  The whole parade thing backfires, in my opinion.    Sometimes these types show up at protests as well, and of course, that is what the news media picks up on.    Some people need to be taken quietly aside and told they are not helping.   I don't know if that is the biggest block, but it is there.  Lousy marketing,

      One of my roommates bought cheese and pasta and asked if I would make mac & cheese.  I walked to the store and bought 4 cups of milk and then used the preppykitchen.com baked mac and cheese recipe that works so well.  Melting a stick of butter and whisking in 1/2 cup of flour and then adding the milk.  Breadcrumbs on top.  It's amazing out of the oven, but just edible when it is cold in the fridge.  It's all gone this morning and that made me happy.

      We made a mega batch of curried sausages today, with enough leftovers to go to others, and into our freezer for us.    Dished up with mashed potato and peas.

      I know my transwoman appearance can be a negative trigger for men.  I mean, it even negatively triggers what is left of my male thought patterns.  I'm wearing a tight fitting, full length, black dress the last few days.  If I could get rid of my male "junk" today, that would be wonderful.   I'm not going wear clothing that I do not enjoy and I'm not going to avoid wearing things like this dress just to avoid triggering some people.  During my coming out phase, I was very conscious about going out in public.  Now, several years later, it doesn't even cross my mind at all.  I am free to express myself the way I want to.  I do get some negative reactions from people in the public places I go.  I think it is good for them to realize that when you are in public, you are not in control of who you bump into or what you see.   I'm a homebody.  Before coming out, I enjoyed dressing up at home.  Even when I was presenting as a male, I enjoyed dressing up at home, in a masculine way, even if I wasn't going to go anywhere.  I just like looking good and feeling my best.  And it isn't about showing that to other people.   So the "acceptance" part of this, is that I just want to be accepted as I am out there in public.  I just want to make my transactions out there and for people to be civil about it.  I'm actually for segregation on the level of if people want to form some club or tavern with a certain culture where they don't have to see and be triggered by me in my dress, and I can go to some club with people who are doing a trans thing, listening to down-tempo acid jazz and drinking ginger tea.  But then there are the super public places like the grocery stores that everyone goes to and you know, we need greater acceptance there.   The work/employment thing is a huge deal too.  I think trans people should not use it as an excuse to get out of work or create waves at work and that employers and employees realize that there needs to be professionalism at work.  At work, we're trying to get products to people.  It all boils down to that.  We all use these products and most of us go to work to keep that thing going.  Work isn't some social club.   Back to the lump in my dress...  I kind of step into a woman's world by doing this in that they have breasts sticking out that they have no control over.

      My son has an industrial type stove on their farm.  I think he got it used online, he gets stuff online a lot.  Burns propane.  It is pretty nice.  I did use it when I was farm sitting for them.  But definitely overkill for someone like me living with a house-mate daughter.  We do our own cooking for the most part.  We also keep very different hours.
