What's Ambiguous To You?
Mood:  happy
Now Playing: Tears in Heaven
I went out this morning with T* to get some lunch at Wegmans. If you have no idea what Wegmans is, I'm sure you will soon. It's kind of like a Super Walmart but more from the grocery store angle. Plus it's a lot more upscale. Expresso bar, deli, sushi bar, live music sometimes, etc etc. Anyways we got a pair of subs (mmm, buffalo style chicken finger variety, no wonder my diet has been at a stand still) and we were sitting in the window watching the rain outside and talking about how her parents would deal with the fact that she's seeing a transsexual. Just a nice Sunday morning conversation. We were sitting near the cafe entrance and people would come in periodically and pass by us while we were eating. No big deal right?

Well, eventually a guy and a girl walked in and I happened to look up and make brief eye contact with him (not on purpose) as they were coming towards us. Feeling stupid (don't you hate it when you make eye contact with someone by mistake?), I looked back down at T* while she was chatting away. So as they passed by I heard the guy say, "Whoa was that a girl?" Ha ha. Keep in mind I was wearing a pair of tan slacks (obscured from view by the table) and a dark blue button up mens dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up half way. I guess that's me playing boy-mode. Anyways I just found it extremely amusing (and validating perhaps?) that I was out in complete guy mode and here I was confusing someone. Of course I suppose he could have been talking about something completely unrelated as in, "Did you see that person last week at school? Whoa was that a girl?" Or whatever, but I'm going to count it in my favor. :-P

We're going to look at apartments this week. Hoping to find something downtown, close to school, close to the bars, close to the stores but with a suburbian feel. Impossible as that sounds there are actually a few really nice neighborhoods near the park and scattered throughout the city that would work. Working on lining up going to see some. Wish me luck.

P.S.

I added a new set of pictures to the galleries. Just some random ones from this weekend. They don't even all go together, but at least you can see my virgin ears before they get pene...pierced :-P this coming week. People asked what I looked like with my hair up so there you go. I'm starting to look a lot more like my sis, especially in the last pic of the three. Wonder if that will creep her out, lol. Oh well, she's a size 0 and I'll never get any lower than a 6 or an 8 even if I was grossly anorexic. At least she can still console herself with that.

:-P

I'd definitely count it in your favor! I have a feeling you could be dressed like a total scrub and still get that though...

You like your sister? She must be quite pretty!!! I am curious how that works for you, but i imagine that she'll actually be really happy. It's totally cool when sisters look alike. I think I'll look like mine too--although I know what you mean about the 0 thing...and the other is a 3 *sigh*

i miss wegman's... loved the sandwiches there.

hey chica, i still can't read your blog entry page (the first one that pops up) because the text is white and the background is white. on internet explorer 6, it works fine, but not in mozilla 1.6 (which is my main browser). i have to highlight all the text to read it. this page--the actual comment page with comment form--has a purple background, so i can read it ok. i'm guessing this problem has something to do with the fact that this page has the background color explicitly set in the body tag, while that other one doesn't. dunno beyond that...

..claire, web dork.
