That's great Brenda. My bosses who were also good mentors are the ones I will be grateful to forever.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
my Amsterdam-Eclipse-Iceland trip with Lee
Oh, man, that'll be a great trip! I'm looking forward to all your photos and trip stories! My BF Katie and I were thinking of going, but the timing just isn't right. (read: we're broke.)
Kate, I hope you feel better quick. Saline water can work magic on suffering sinuses.
brenda, that's wonderful! Nice and well-deserved ego boost.
I am having a bad day. Slogging through it, hoping tomorrow will be better.

A gazillion mini eclipsed Suns on your skin.
I've seen that with partial and annular eclipses, and loved it! I will have to remember to look for trees or something...I did learn how to mimic the effect on a small scale with interlaced fingers during this last partial, so there's always that.
Way to go, brenda, that's wonderful!

Well, I was successful in watching Downton, but I think I am just out of steam wrt working. Oh, gah, I still need to make breakfast. Better get on that. Good night unfinished spreadsheets, I'll most likely kill you in the morning.

I wish I'd been able to pay better attention to the 2nd hour of Agent Carter, but drug busts on my front curb tend to distract me.
At least, I assume it was a drug bust. A smallish car, 3 city police cars, and a K9 unit all clustered around the front of my house. The passenger of the car got out with his hands up and walked backwards to the cops, then the driver got out with her hands up and did the same. Then the dog went sniffing around the car, then the cops began poking around the trunk. the last time I looked, they were sorting through a bunch of little bundles on the trunk lid.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is there a word for "my gender is not your business" with a side of "I'll present how I want and mix and match to my heart's delight"?
It's not like I don't identify as female--I just am not that attached to the perception of my gender and would like to violate norms whenever I have the whim.
Still scared to buy a binder without trying it on, though.
This might be a Bitches question, but I haven't been in there forever.
Is anyone here trans or genderfluid or butch or whatever the other descriptors are?

I believe the phrase is "you'll never know."
