Work mates

So I have to give a BIT GIGANTIC SHOUT OUT!!!! to my two best friends at work. They are really supportive in all the stuff that has been going on with me. They are also smart enough to tell me when I'm doing something stupid as well. Z and A, you're the BEST!!!!

New Gig

so, I now have a new part time job. It's just on weekends and end early enough for me to get to most, MOST, derby evening stuff (unfortunately, it means not always getting to help set up). The security that is felt from finally having a definite part time job and knowing that I do not have to continue to look for one is AMAZING. This job should help finish paying off bills and give me a little bit of money to save up for stuff, like new tires for my car and paying off Austin Beauty School (hopefully before classes even start!!!). Plus, I will have time at the part time gig to get other stuff done, like setting up sewing projects and such!!

Halloween

So, Halloween has past. I had a blast at the Rocky Horror Picture Show and intend on becoming a member of the live cast that they are trying to put together!!!!! The big thing for me, though, was work. I had a vinyl Little Red Riding Hood outfit and the basket and my four inch red stillettos. I did my make-up as best as I could. The girls loved it and complimented/complained about my legs. Once I explained about the 15 years of baseball (with a year or two as catcher), a year and half of pick-up roller hockey as goalie, and roller derby since march, they understood why my legs look the way they do. I made a comment to one of the girls about thinking of being a leg model. She told me to really think about it cause my legs look that good. I really have been serious about it, I'm just waiting until I have finished transitioning. Then it'll be a move that I make (along with other types of modeling).
The biggest compliment was when one of my workmates and I went down for the mail. We passed this one gentleman who looked at me and I smiled back and said hi and kept walking. My buddy kept turning around to talk to me. When we got into the elevator, he mentioned that the guy in the elevator kept checking me out after we had gone passed him. I was so excited because it shows that I do have the ability to pass!!! My buddy realized this and he was happy for me as well.
Of course he mentioned later that he enjoyed me walking into the mail room with the card because it made him feel like Bob Barker and I was one of Barker's Beauties with the next item up for bids. I figured that was another compliment for me, so I was happy.
I like halloween!!!
