It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

Wait a minute, that's no moon!

That's excellent.

Because books.

This is something that I think about a lot, for obvious reasons. And my conclusion is, I have NO idea what being female "feels like."

It's so interesting, because I'm trying to think why I feel that way, and I'm not coming up with anything that explains it. And there are certainly times when I feel more masculine, although I hesitate to call it "tomboyish" because I associate that with climbing trees and playing kickball and skipping rocks or something, which isn't me.

I'm not sure I have enough caffeine for this yet, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That is fantastic! Good job by the bikers as well.

Can I still get riding-ish boots, or will they be out by next year?

Heh. That's me. Once I tried to think about what female "feels like," I came up with....nothing. "Feminine," yes.

Fooking bizarre.

I think riding boots are sort of classic, Jesse, aren't they?

You want to know what's pretty funny on a Tuesday morning? A bunch of Texans/Louisianian gathered around weather.com trying to figure out what those new colors on the radar map mean. Green, dark green, yellow even-we got. Blue and pink? No clue. Is the front expecting?

There seems to have been a furry convention in Addison this weekend

Interestingly, we just had a conversation about furries last night. With a friend's co-worker who had just moved from Texas. He was very confused. Then, somehow, we moved on to BDSM because BFF's neighbor has a BDSM flag. Quote of the night came from BFF's DH regarding said flag "I don't care if you're into BDSM or whatever, I care about bad graphic design!" (for reference, the flaq in question [link]

Cool house though, but the owner is surely making a fortune from dock fees. I think I would have a big privacy issue. Still looking.

This could be a temporary issue. You're only required to honor the contracts until their expiration, so you would probably only deal with it for a year at most. You should ask the owner about it. You could even keep the dock fees, but add restrictions on access.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

That's a good distinction to make, I think. I do feel very female when I'm dressed as I usually am (jeans, sweaters, boots) but there is a difference in how feminine I feel when I've got on nail polish or I'm wearing a dress.

I see the distinction but it doesn't quite work for me. I think because when I think "feminine" I go to a frills and ruffles and Laura Ashley patterns (which is my own cultural baggage showing through).
