    Sorry you have to go through this. (*hug*) I'll admit as someone with some of that male hard-wiring, it's hard not to look at and admire the female form. Maybe stay underwater as much as possible (without drowning)? :confused: Anyway, shouldn't let white noise distract you from your goals.

    Where else would I go? :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Ah, right. Blonde moment there. :lol:

    Second link isn't leading me anywhere specific. As for piece at first link, think you made a nice choice. It's more "athletic" cut than "sexy" cut.

    And yes, by all means, glare at any prurient eyes like a scimitar vivisecting their entrails. :evil:

    So I brought the therapist thing up to my mom (who manages my appointments since I don't know when anyone sees the doctor anymore) and she reminded me that the wait is for the end of the month because of the insurance company sorting things out.

    So I got three-ish weeks to wait now until I should be somewhere. I'm also hopefully getting my swim binder in soon which is awesome since I need to get my butt in the pool again--hopefully it arrives before Nik comes back to town when we should have the pool done if the weather is nice.

    So excited!

    I think that a binder swimsuit with asthma would be a dangerous move and what would be the difference between a triathlon suit and what I got? I have trunks to wear over the bottom part so, I don't see the difference if people can still tell that I have... :dry:

    I attended a Unitarian Universalist service this morning. They talked about unity and nature and were fundraising for an LGBTQ center. There was an Islamic sign and a cross and a Star of David. It was awesome. I would prefer more formality but still, it was awesome.

    Is this thread actually somewhat on topic? What?? I bought some stuff from the mens section yesterday. Shopping was fine. I'm a little nervous about what people will think when I actually wear them though.

    The only church I have been to en-femme was a UU - I remember how nice people were to me and that was about 10 to 15 years ago. It was really the only church I have ever attended with any regularity that I was comfortable with in guy mode either - I have since moved or I might still go occasionally.

    So, I had a very awkward conversation with my advisor today about how/ when to tell my next advisor that I want to have top surgery... Yeah... :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I think I might want top surgery, but how can I do it without anyone finding out? I also don't know what impacts that will have on my possible future careers: physician and/or actor. On the other hand, I think I might qualify for a keyhole procedure if I actually decide to get it. Minimal scarring=good.
