Holidays, Holdays, Holidays, Hell, Holidays…. WTF

As some of you may know I have just returned from holidays, that’s right holidays the first of many to come hopefully. In the past with owning my own business and all I have found it quite difficult to find time for myself.

But now with the big move coming up and the extraordinary amount of time I have seemed to come up with lately I finally had a chance to travel. Partly on my own, some with family and other times with friends. I went from Adelaide to Melbourne by plane where I stayed and traveled Victoria a little for a week and also had the chance to catch up with my sister who lives there before my parents turned up and we all went to Queensland together, that was a blast got to go to all the theme parks and do lots of relaxing which I have become quite good at now, had minor fight slash conversation with my mother over bathers, my body and what she wasn’t prepared for which you can read about in my last post if you haven’t already.

Then up to Noosa to meet up with my friends for the rest of the trip, or so I thought.

A few days after catching up with them one of them got some bad news about her Dad passing away and she had to fly back to Adelaide, and she took her boyfriend and one of the other with her leaving me and Sophie who didn’t really know each other that well seeing as we had only met once before this trip alone. We got to know each other very well over the next few days as we had massages and facials, and did lots and lots of sunbathing which gave me a wicked tan and just generally enjoyed ourselves. On the 10th day in Noosa I decided to tell Sophie that I was trans I figured if she hadn’t already be told by the others or guessed for herself then I might as well let the cat out of the bag.

Well that night we were at a restaurant called Bistro C in Noosa Heads when I decided that it was time to tell, at first she took it okay open mouth style a little shocked but good I thought. Everything was going great she didn’t believe me at first and had an onslaught of questions for me to answer which I obliged but then the questions started to turn towards our mutual friends and how upset she was that they hadn’t told her that she was on holiday with a “Tranny” as she put. which I didn’t like and told her. this went on for quite sometime before we decided to call it a night, with a short Taxi back to the hotel which was good because the awkwardness wasn’t easy and the cab driver kept on hitting on Sophie and I which was just making things worse. Well the next morning Sophie decided that she wanted to go home and that she needed to talk to Bec and Dekota our other friends about their betrayal which was hard words for me to hear but all the same I wasn’t looking forward to the conversations that would arise from her talks with them. I decided that I would stay the next few nights because I needed the escape and relaxation.

When I got back to Adelaide Bec, Dakota, Sophie and I all went out for drinks at Fumo Blue’s to discuss what had transpired in Noosa, before Sophie arrived I had a chance to talk to Bec about how she was doing with the loss of her dad and all and what she made of everything that happened with me and Sophie in Nossa, regarding Sophie and I she said that Sophie over reacted and was just a little weired out about it all, she said that Sophie had assumed that I was more of a predator using this disguise as a women to lure unsuspecting women. I actually laughed at that the thought of me doing that number one was hilarious but then the thought of anyone going to this much trouble just to trick unsuspecting people was so far beyond anything that I had come across before that it had me in tears of laughter, Sophie arrived and apologized to me and said that she hoped we could still be friends because she had, had a great time up until our dinner together, she also said that she would understand if I didn’t want to know her. I said that I would need a chance to sit down with her alone and really answer any questions that she had but that I would like it if we could mend those bridges and get on with being friends.

My main thoughts were if I get the chance to really nut out her fears or problems that she had with me in Noosa it might help her adapt and she me as just another one of the girls, I am also hoping that it will give me a chance to dispel any of the myths that she may have and give her the right catch phrases to refer to Transsexual women with.

Well I am meeting with her on Tuesday next week so I will let you know how it goes, if anyone has advice on what I should bring up let me know or even if you just want to write me a comment coz you like me LOL

Loves Ya
