75 here in Maryland. It's kinda strange how the topography works here. You can have very cool areas (Bethesda) and several degrees hotter in others (Takoma Park). Bethesda will get a ton of snow, Takoma Park won't, they experience more of the lake effect, more even temperatures all year round, than we will.

I used to drive 65 miles to get to work. I went through 3 different weather pattern areas. I love variety though. I really miss the drive at times now that i'm retired. I still tend to get up early even after 3 years. Between 4 and 5.

Speaking of coffee... My afternoon, help-me-make-it-to-the-weekend mug. I got this staying at the Stanley Hotel in room 217 (the same one from the Shining). Did something strange happen? Yes!

 

Does anyone else have a favorite mug, or several favorite mugs?

her latest is the philosophy of food. i love the quirky little detours she takes. it's very entertaining and at the same time, highly educational. she makes the study of philosophy as easy as eating cake, well maybe a little easier, perhaps!

I am riding high right now!

 

The Gender Pathways clinic at Kaiser is phenomenal. Just talked to one of their nurses. I have voice therapy scheduled starting in October, they are writing a referral letter for Electrolysis with the person I have been seeing for a couple of months, and they are giving me a referral for a tracheal shave which will get me into the pipeline whenever the moratorium on elective surgeries is lifted. I feel as giddy as a schoolgirl! HeeHee!

Lots happening today. Went down to the local coffee house that also has a weekly craft market out front and found some amazing earrings!  They’re going to be perfect for my outing later with a lesbian meetup group to a winery.  Do a wine tasting and picnic in the foothills of the Blue Ridge on a perfect 78 degree and sunny day. The back home to the same coffeehouse where there is a jazz and blues festival happening all day/evening. I’m exhausted just thinking about it. E429B5EC-E72E-4B71-98ED-0151D5EBEB76.thumb.jpeg.930295f33b91898b75dc75aebbc0867a.jpeg

<laugh> Yeah @Bri2020, you look exhausted. Absolutely dreading the upcoming day in that pic. Sarcasm obviously. You look like you're gonna have a blast. Go have a blast!

 

Hugs!

On my day uptown I stopped at the coffee house for awhile.

Before I left I wanted to use the "facilities", and found this.

This was new.  Since some repairs they had left the M or F off the doors - one was out of order anyway.  But now they have 2 of these.

The coffeehouse had been a "safe place" since years ago when it opened. But this was kinda nice.

Got my second hair cut as me yesterday...didn't weep in builtup emotions this time, just smiles. "My" stylist blew it out so it looked under control for one day. Back to curly/wavy mess today I suppose, but we're hoping in another couple months it'll be less of a mullet...I know she could shape it into something more feminine but I am holding onto the length as hard as I can since I am a work in progress all over and mostly working at home still.

I know how that is. In my efforts to take better care of myself I've been getting mine trimmed every 6 weeks or so. Now 6 months later I realized that it is pretty much the same length. I have my hair goal in mind so I'll be skipping the trims for the next several months to get the length I want.

My electrologist/hair stylist takes care of the split ends and shaping every 8 weeks to help getting to the length I would really like and I added biotin vitamins to help as well and it seems to be working.

I went to visit a friend today and spent most of the time being used as a pillow by their good boy.

My partner of 45 years died today.  She was my biggest supporter in my transition.  I will miss her so much.

      A mixture of good and bad.

      EXCITEMENT The feeling when you expect something good or nice will happen to you. You cannot wait for it to happen. You feel excitement when something very nice is about to happen. For example, when you are about to see a good friend who just returned from a year abroad, when you just received the keys for your new car, or when you are waiting in line for a thrilling rollercoaster ride. In each case, you are experiencing eagerness and impatience in expectation of the upcoming pleasant experience. Excitement is more likely when the anticipated experience is both novel or unique and desirable. It is especially intense if you have been waiting for a long time to obtain the goal, or when excitement is shared with other people and the event makes you feel like you are part of something bigger.

      https://www.nbcnews.com/nbc-out/out-news/several-attorneys-general-made-abusive-legal-demands-get-trans-patient-rcna147910     This is a complex issue and I'm no expert, but the actions of these GOP Attorney's General don't pass the smell test.  Their motivations and actions are highly suspect and they lack any credibility.  What else is new, right?  I guess it will all come out in the inevitable court fight.   Carolyn Marie

      I went to work with my husband today.  He asked me this morning if I wanted to go...of course I said yes.  I enjoy being with him, and getting away from the house for a little while.  He spent half the day in his office, which I think is why he asked me along.  He made a nest in the corner for me, where I can plug in my laptop and do my stuff...nobody minds me being there.     But today ended up with a strange opportunity.  I had a conversation with my husband's boss, the company owner.  They want some basic graphic design work done, so I think they might hire me to do it.  Nothing fancy, not nearly as complicated as what I've attempted to do for our county.  So I have a meeting with them on Monday, just to look at some details and see if I can do the work they want.  And especially talk about when they need it done, because I still work pretty slowly.  I don't really need or want the money, but its nice to feel like I can do something again.

      I went to WM today with the objective of buying sandals: they would be women's, but look like men's; they would be brown or black, not white.  I realized the cheapest way to go  was to go for flip-flops, which I observed were prevalent in the store. So I checked out the women's.  Flowers. White shiny straps. Nothing that could possibly be men's. The best deal was one flip flop for $3.98.  At first I thought that was a pair, then, nope.  And because I comparison shop (is there the same thing in men's?) I found the cheapest over there was $6.98 for a pair of flip flops in green that also match my women's cargo shorts that I love.  Doing the math, finding the pink tax.  Rip off.  I have found a blue tax this way, but usually they charge women more for something than they do men. I guess women tend to lose one flip flop at a time or something. Weird.  The pairs were a lot higher.   So, following my rule, but unhappy with it, I bought the green men's flip flops.  They were the cheapest.  Later wife of mine complimented how masculine I look in my matching shorts and flip-flops.  Inward groan. We have not discussed the Subject in a long time because I think she forgets it is there as soon as the conversation ends.  Or she is trying to talk me out of this.  Not sure.  We only discuss it when necessary, and how often do most couples discuss whether one spouse is one sex or the other? Outside of here, I mean.  So we very seldom talk about it and she is happier if she does not know about it. Super stealth.  I do the laundry and I shower in the shower in the wing away  from the master bed room so I have my own shower.
