Almost did it, and an anniversary

  The senior coordinator for my team at work had a barbeque yesterday at his house after work.  I did go, although Josie could not be with me, and I had a nice time.  A lot of my coworkers showed up, and we made the usual jokes. 

  We are getting ready to shoot another movie for You Tube.  My friend Freddy said I should be dressed in a suit and tie and be an uptight businessman, because, in his words, "If you showed up in a dress we would expect that.  You need to play against type."

  As I said before, I say things about being TG all the time, but people think I am making a joke (that is, those who do not know about me).  I was THIS CLOSE last night to telling everyone I was TG.  What stopped me?  While I was not drunk at all, I had had a beer or two, and wanted to prevent anything thinking I was making an alcohol-laden confession.  When (not if) I fully come out, I want to be as sober as possible.

  Pretty soon I'll know what they're going to do with the piccies from the two photo shoots I did last week for the museum.  I will also be posting more about that React table.  That thing is so much fun!  I won't want the guests to use it, I'll keep it for myself!

  By the way, I didn't make much of it, but last Friday was the three year anniversary of being thrown out of my house, touching off a nightmare that lasted almost a year.  The next day I had a long talk on the phone with my ex.  We're getting along pretty good, and she said she does consider me to be a friend.  Three years ago I never thought that would ever happen!  Nor did I think I would have my life back on track.  I was thrown out, ostracized, hated, and in a hospital, staring out the window and wondering what I would do to survive. 

  Three years later I have my confidence back, with a lot of the credit to the girls here at TW.  I would like to list names but am afraid of leaving anyone out.  Some of the names, though, are Karen Brad, Anna-Marie, Marsha Ann, Michelle Lynn, Kendra Katana Yunalesca, Nikki, Josie (of course!), and, naturally, Lilienne Li.

  Now, back to the insanity!
