• Hey, I look cute right now - and HAVE FUN AT THE TM!!!!

  by Meredith Newton August 6, 2004
  I always feel good after my sessions.  The one thing about my shrink is that she has no problems with the TG community.  She thinks it is good that I have someplace like TW here since I can't be open about it at home, or anywhere.  At least not now.  As much as I'd like that to c...

• Now some funny stuff

  by Meredith Newton August 5, 2004
  I talked about my band demotion again at home last night.  My wife said "That happened a gazillion years ago, why is it bothering you now?"  It really isn't.  It was just a nasty incident that helped fuel my insecurities.  But that's why I'm in therapy now.  I'm really not t...

• Just a few more things about me

  by Meredith Newton August 5, 2004
  I've been blogging you all to death here.  Sorry. Just indulge me here for a few more moments. I mentioned a few days ago about growing up in my asshole "brother's" shadow. When he went to high school and took up the french horn, my family decided I should be a musician too.  Never mind th...

• A deliciously gloomy day! And a request!

  by Meredith Newton August 4, 2004
  Today is overcast, a little breezy, some sprinkles. I love it! I wish we'd get a huge storm like we had last night (although Alex, in her latest blog, will disagree with me!  LOVE YOU ALEX!!!).  For some reason this puts me in a good mood.  I'm also working on some academic duties tod...

• The honour is mine

  by Meredith Newton August 4, 2004
  You're honoured to be my friend? I'm honoured to be your friend!  I love you all.  You're the best.  Sometimes, to admit it, I get a few tears in my eyes thinking about you all and how much we mean to each other.  Just to give each of you a hug and a kiss someday would really be ...

• Some things you need to know about me

  by Meredith Newton August 3, 2004
  Girls, I guess that movie really got to me. You need to know now, before I go any further with you, about a few things from my past.  I've done some things of which I'm not very proud. On the other hand, I've been shit on more than a person has a right to. GOOD STUFF - Today my wife wanted me t...

• Still crying, AND THAT SONG WON'T GO AWAY

  by Meredith Newton August 2, 2004
  What can I do for you? All I do is take and never give back to any of you.  Tressa must hate me by now because every time I'm sad I call her. Do I do anything for any of you? I need to count my blessings, of which there are many. You girls are part of that. I'm sorry if it seems as if I'm self-...

• Whoops, wrong lyric sequence

  by Meredith Newton August 2, 2004
  I feel it in my fingers, I feel it in my toes...Still can't get it out of my mind What an idiot I am.  It went to shit in a minute (NOT my fault).  What I would give for that moment again. Oh, to feel alive.  Am I really that much of an asshole?

• Love is all around us, I feel it in my.....oh, bloody hell

  by Meredith Newton August 1, 2004
  I cannot get that damn song out of my head.  More on that in a moment. An interesting weekend. We spent a lot of time together on Friday. After my psychologist appointment I drove her out to this other suburban town where she had to attend a short meeting. Then we had a very nice lunch, and fro...

• The waiting game continues

  by Meredith Newton July 29, 2004
  Oh well, it doesn't look like that temp gig is going to happen. I could sure use it.  But, I contacted another publisher with whom I corresponded two years ago. They liked my proposal back then but felt it needed better clarification, such as to whom the book is targeted. They were very valid, ...
