So the question remains ...

... what to do next year ... meaning, this year, of course.

( herein lies a rambling on my future options, which will likely bore the hell out of most of you )

Its obvious that teaching, in some way, is what you're leaning towards. Why not teach up there, AND start a essay editing/tutoring business w/ Robyn. Charge all those Madison geeks for what they have.

I would love to get coffee ... maybe sometime after this fundraiser fiasco that I'm throwing. Speaking of which, you should come. Gay Mardi Gras Masquerade Ball, $12, PC Ballroom at JMU, 7:30-10:30, all proceeds benefit the GLBTQ Resource Committee ... and they NEED it!

I'm goin' crazy w/ this right now, but I'd like to see you after this week.

I'll give you $12, whether or not I come. But if you need a nice purple/green/gold mask, I have one ... but you can't have my beads!! Well, not for free anyway :)

What I don't seem to understand about this weekend, however, is why Leslie is wearing a dress, heels, makeup, and nail polish, and the rest of you are going in suits ... shouldn't you be in a dress, too?

On second thought, I'll loan you a good dress and high heels rather than beads.

Or is this cross dress thing Friday's agenda? I'm confused.

Cool ... you can either send your donation to me or, if we're gonna see each other soon, I can take it then. Thanks for the offer!

Technically, due to my anatomical makeup, I SHOULD be in a suit. But, I dress in "drag" every day of my life, so it would be more like drag for me to go in a dress. I was even toying with that idea myself. I've come a long way ... I NEVER would have thought to do that a few years ago. I can wear a dress and STILL feel comfortable about my gender identity ... or can I? Really, I haven't done that yet.

So anyways ... I'm not gonna show you my tits ... but I'll let you see Leslie's for some beeds. I know she won't mind stepping in for me!

I note you asking what others think you should do when you already have a clear answer what you want to do. That's alright -- nothing wrong with it -- biut the question I have, based on the last year, is whether you'll heed the advice those who care about you feel inclined to offer, but hesitate to do so. I say hesitate because we've all seen you acknowledge the sagacity of said advice, and then stay in a safe holding pattern, rather than take a chance and do what you think would make you happier. My two cents -- a stray elk.
