Sally's Short Stories

Recommended Posts

This is a self promotion, my blog has two short stories at the moment, others will come so be fore warned! I have shared 'The Awakening' with a few individuals here and was asked by most of them to post it, I hope that you will read and enjoy my work, I take pride in it and love to share.

Thank you for reading and feel free to leave a comment,

Sally

I replied to ALONE - it hit dead center with me. I use the word actor instead of puppet - but puppet shows a real lack of being able to contol your destiny and seems so much more descriptive. I especially liked your dictionary intro which set up the lead-in so well. You delivered the idea that the word ALONE to us transgendered has a very poignant and specialized meaning. It's early in the morning and I haven't had my coffee - or I just might go back to bed and sob a bit - darn it Sally... we are such a sad bunch here sometimes.

I've added another one, it actually is written around an excerpt from an E-mail that I sent to my therapist before I scheduled my first session. So this is actually much older than the others.

Enjoy,

Sally

Well she's at it again!

I've posted another short story.

For those of you afraid to visit because you don't have time to read a short story, mine should better be described as essays - 2 pages is really long for me! :)

Love ya,

Sally

Sally, Stop it! Not another one - I haven't read the others yet!

Yes, there is another new story.

I seem to write a lot,

Hey Sally :)

I read your 'waking up' story, It was written very well, I could see everything that was expressed in clear detail, it also made me cry.

Much luv, Jacci xo

Thanks, Jacci,

That one was written kind of more for 'us', but like the others they are kind of an attempt to explain to 'them' that 'we' are just human beings and 'we' have feelings and dreams to!

Someone 'stop' me before I 'air quote' again!

Love ya,

Sally

Well I've been at it again, That brings the entries to 16, actually one is a rewrite so there are only 15 different stories or poems.

I hope that some of you will take the time to read them, I feel a great release and even joy when I write and I hope that some of you can feel the same.

Even reading a sad story can serve as a release and make you feel better.

Let my therapy be your therapy as well.

Here's that address again:

...more!

You asked for it, there is more!

Another new one from the never ending store house of words, Sally's Word processor!

"It slices, it dices and best of all it is the world's fastest home cole slaw maker!"

It's Word - O - Matic!

Don't accept substitutes, only Sally's Word - O - Matic comes with the satire blade, the irony blade, the exclusive pathos blade and the patented pun attachment!

Oh, did I mention that I have added a new essay?

Love ya,

Sally

That newest work was inspired by a topic posted by KristieTS, "Where Are The Trannsexuals From?" and it started me thinking - always dangerous! :o

"If women are from Venus and men are from Mars, what planet do transsexuals come from?" :unsure:

Enjoy a little slice of my own special brand of insanity, there's plenty more where that came from. :wacko:

Love ya,

Sally

By the way, this one isn't depressing at all! :D

Oh, no, don't look, just ignore her and she'll go away.

That's why I always have cookies, to bring you in.

I have another observation on my blog.

So what else is new?

      Well said.    Although this so-called Project 2025 will not affect me directly in an immediate sense, it sends a signal to equivalent minded people and political parties around the world that it is okay to exclude minorities and indeed, to persecute them.   In my humble opinion, the far-right politicians know damn well that there is a very large cohort of less-than-intelligent people out there who are not capable of critical thinking and believe every skerrick of dog-whistling, fearmongering, "they're-out-there-to-get-you" rhetoric. Pander to their rural and village attitudes and you're on a winner!    Correcting them with logic and science won't work; they just double down and get louder with their petulance on full display.

      Just waking up so I'm in my pajamas - blue/white madras shorts, a navy blue t-shirt and my sleep bra with sleep-rated breast forms.   Thank you @Susan R for telling us about your mastectomy bra and forms fitting experience before your BA surgery and how sleeping in the bra/forms helped with the dysphoria.    First, hearing about your courage to get fitted gave me the confidence and courage to go out in public.   And, second, finding sleep mastectomy bras and sleep-rated breast forms (I found a set on eBay for a good price) has been a tremendous boost to my feeling comfortable in my pajamas and nightgowns and tamping down my dysphoria and dysmorphia.

      If you could talk for 1 hour about any topic without preparation, what would it be? Mine would be music especially classic rock era.

      Germany has more castles than there are McDonald's in the United States. Yep, you heard that right. Germany is estimated to have 25,000 castles, and there are around 13,000 McDonald's locations in America.   In Washington state, there's a real-life law stating it's illegal to kill bigfoot and other sasquatch-like creatures.

      DREAD f you’re anticipating something positive, you’re probably motivated to summon all your patience to wait for it—and sometimes for extended time periods. It may be counter-intuitive, yet in certain instances such waiting can itself be gratifying. Consider Carly Simon’s song “Anticipation,” the old Heinz ketchup ads, and—especially—recent research pointing in the opposite direction as regards awaiting something highly aversive. In this post I won’t be reviewing ketchup commercials, but I will be exploring some intriguing research on dread-infused anticipation.

      So an update from me.   Had my endo appointment last night. Went very well and they are sending 3 months supply of estrogen (estradoil patches) and the anti-androgens whilst my Dr gets a shared care agreement sorted out. So happy, should start HRT tomorrow!! Cost for the 3 month supply is £70 total for me, so not too bad. Not told my parents about this yet, but them being in spain, not sure they need to know yet.   Can't wait to start, just got to think about where to put the patches now and wait for the changes...

      Good Morning    well it’s Friday for most, pay day for some.  For me it’s pay day but not Friday.  I work the same opening shift tomorrow.  I typically have Friday on Saturday and Monday on Tuesday.     @KymmieL it does sound like your shop has an issue and you are smack in the thick of it.  The new gal or guy often is.  We have an issue with new people not getting fully trained before being turned loose on customers.  Some struggle through it and some quit because of it.  I try to get them working with customers as quickly as I can but I stay right with them observing, helping, even jumping in when things are getting backed up to keep the stress down.  Not everything comes up during training so when things do, even later after trying is done, I try to help and explain.  Our ASM feels that once she has you scanning barcodes and taking money she is done training.  Generally, refuses to train me on things that she does, and questions why I’m doing something that she normally handles when I’ve been told to do it as part of my advancement training.     She and the cashier involved both keep trying to toss the manager under the bus over a hours of work issue and shifts.  I tell her I realize her issues and I’ll work what ever she needs.  Because of that I tend to get a better more consistent schedule.   Well, time to say Happy Trails to you, until we meet again.   Hi ho Silver, away   Willow

      That does get you the 'starting point' for cup size, but manufacturers, style, breast shape, etc... will effect the results.    Step one is of course finding the proper band fit, then figuring out the approximate cup size with the calculations. Of course you need to try on a few styles after that in different cup sizes close to your measured result until you get the perfect fit.    I have bras in a DD that fit just like my bras in DDD both from Torrid but different styles.    I have some DDD's that fit awesome and some that are a bit loose, but I measure a 46G. It's not wonder that 80% of women are wearing them wrong bra.
