I've always thought one of the hottest things in the world would be meara doing Chris Isaak drag.

Aww! You're so sweet. I shall have to take it into consideration. I'd have to get a wig to do the hair right now--my hair is, for the first time in several years, touching my shoulders. Madness.

Just found out that someone I was hanging out with on Saturday night is an FtoM tranny. I totally would never have known. But apparently today is the two-year anniversary of his hysterectomy.

Heh. That's so awesome. One of my friends in Chicago is FTM, and had a full beard, at one point, just cause he was so pleased he *could*--but when he went in to get a hysterectomy with it, they were confused, to say the least. (Uh, I don't suppose you were hanging out with Cody?)

in trying to understand the meaning of slope, use musical scales/arpeggios. An arpeggio with a large slope may only hit the octaves, and will cross the keyboard in very few steps. Smaller slopes will go all the way down to a chromatic scale, which takes a very long time to cross the keyboard

See, I looked at this and it took me a minute, cause...rise/run, and I got all confused cause the keyboard is the same length in either case.

So might be easier to say if you're looking at sheet music--if you've got quarter notes going CDEFGA, vs ones going CEGCEG, you're going higher in the same amount of space on the sheet, eh? Would that work? (Still have the sound part so people can listen)

My phone interview got rescheduled for Thursday. However, in the rescheduling process the principal did compliment my resumé, so that's something. And I didn't seem like too much of an idiot in the brief talking we did do.

meara, I spoke to my friend in Switzerland yesterday. She loved your "two dates and a u-haul" comment. Her version is, "What do lesbians do for a second date? Move in together."

She's been in a slump lately so that cheered her up.

Ima headed to bed for a few hours. The girl will most likely wake me up at 3 again.

Of course you didn't sound like an idiot, Gris, but I'm sorry if this means extended nerves.

edited so that this post doesn't sound like an idiot either, I hope.

Speaking of "two dates and a u-haul", smoochies and hugs have been had. New relationships are fun and exciting and confusing.

Gris, that just means more time to absorb the ~ma.

Excellent, Gris--more time to absorb the -ma.

Cash, yeah, the way I've heard it is "What do lesbians bring on a second date?/ A UHaul" (and "What do gay men bring on a second date?/What's a second date?")

meara, a girl told me that joke on a date once.

Which still makes me smile.

Perkins, I'd get this: [link]

This is what I'd buy: [link] (it's just the overdress, not the darker one underneath). It is STUNNING.

The last part of that joke is "What does a bi girl bring on a second date?" "A second date!"

I just heard the trio the other night and laughed a lot.
