Again With Amy’s Inbox

It’s been a while since I’ve shared some of the e-mail that has hit my in-box …

So here goes !

Oh yeah,

And please remember to flush after you’ve finished. 🙂

Are your boobs really as big as they look?

I really don’t know. I will admit, when I see myself in some of the pictures of me, I’m like “wow, my breasts look large“,

But honestly, they really don’t seem that large to me …

At least from my vantage point. 🙂

I also don’t have a good idea what others think. I really haven’t talked about them or their size much with friends or anything. My mom told me that they are a perfect size for my body frame, but she’s my mom, so she’s a little biased.

And, I haven’t let any guy see them yet … either for play or just curiousity of friends … so I don’t know what a guy would think. (Who wudda thunk that would be the case, huh ?? I’m telling you … I’m just a tease !! Mostly. :))

I’ve never had anyone ever say anything like … “holy krap, you’ve got large boobs“, so they aren’t sizable enough to elicit that type of comment. And trust me, if they were, I’m bound to have at least one friend that would say something like that.

However, I do seem to attract a fair amount of attention with them, so I’m guessing that most guys at least find them sizable enough to be of some interest, though guys find quarter-sized flapjacks at IHOP arousing, so that’s not a good test either.

How was the Howie Day concert?

Okay … I’ve got a very overdue review of the concert which I must finish. Trust me, my cousin Faye, who I pestered into going with me to the concert, has been reminding me of my dismal lack of timeliness in that respect !! 🙂

Anyways, I’ll finish the review later …

Maybe. 🙂

But for now …

Here’s the quick summary:

I was slightly disappointed in the concert. Both Faye and I thought that Howie was doing a lip sync show at first, though it appears that he was doing some sampling techniques instead.

However, if there is any confusion about whether it’s live or sync during an allegedly live show, that just means they really aren’t getting into it at all. He sang all of my favorite songs, and did an excellent job, but who knows, it might have been a recording. Even his crowd banter seemed lacking.

He did a 70 minute set which just flew by time wise … though I think Laura was right, again … Howie seems to be copping an attitude.

Our seats were rather lame, but that was my fault.

All in all … Howie is certainly a talent, and he was named Male Vocalist of the Year from the Boston Music Awards, I think he just wasn’t into the show that night. Though I also think he’d be a much more entertaining personality in a smaller, bar-type stage setting.

Though on a positive note … I had a blast hanging out with Faye. It was the most fun I had just hanging out since Cousin Golfer came to town and took me to the cleaners on the golf course !! 🙂 My cousins totally rock !

That’s Faye and me in the wrong parking structure on our way to the concert. Please note our respective outerwear … I was prepared for moderate weather, she was prepared for cooler weather. I was correct going to the concert, she was definitely the smart one when we left the concert … I froze my ass off !!! Also, please note, the mud on the passenger side mirror of the Amy Mobile, which was obtained in the 4 wheeling excursion with Sister and Miss Daisy mentioned later in this post.

Do you still hang out with The UnUsual Suspects and just not write about it now?

Against my better judgment, I’m going to answer this question, ’cause I get it frequently and since they had starring roles in gospel II, I can certainly understand the interest.

Ugh …

Let’s see,

I think I haven’t seen Hottie since August sometime,

Singer since way early September when I saw her while at Best Buy,

I did hang out with Sister and Miss Daisy for a night of drinks recently which was totally enjoyed by me and even included a trip to a party a couple of states east of BFE which required the Amy-Mobile to go four-wheeling …

Something I might add,

That is not what one should do in the Amy-Mobile !! 🙂

So no, I’m not hanging out with them again and just not writing about it. My posts about hardly ever seeing them except for Wednesday nights really weren’t drama queen rants. (Remember, I’m a Countess With Attitude, not a drama queen. :))

I do miss each and every one of them,

And despite not seeing them anymore …

And in spite of my posts on the topic :),

I think I’m still on decent terms with all of them?? 🙂

And I continue to correspond with each of them electronically:

Singer checks in on me regularly and usually let’s me get away with saying krap I probably shouldn’t say,
Hottie kicked my ass this past weekend in Amy’s Football Legaue,
Sister sends me the nicest e-mails, and …
Miss Daisy sends me the funniest e-mails.

It’s simply that all of us are so busy with other commitments, including me, that getting together as a group or even a subgroup is a logistical nightmare. It was Wednesday night or hardly never for the most part.

In fact, Miss Daisy is moving to Florida today and for the last month we tried to coordinate a time for all of us to get together before he left and that wasn’t even accomplished completely.

And as far as not mentioning them much here anymore, it’s just that absent hanging out … there’s really no hijinx to report. But if we do get together and do anything fun, I’ll most likely mention it. 🙂

Have you ever been with a guy when he’s figured out your function?

I don’t know, which probably means ‘no‘. 🙂 A few times I have seen some guys looking at me in a way where I suspected they determined there was something special going on …

But then eventually they all sort of made a move on me at various times, so I figured I was just imagining it and it was their dorked up way of checking me out. I did scare the bejeebers out of myself one time when I thought for sure I had committed a friendly fire outing …

I was kissing this one guy and allowed myself to get completely into the moment and an involuntary moan escaped my lips which I thought was a little too low sounding (technically, I’m not so sure it was the kiss that generated the moan, but probably the hug and squeeze combination that was tendered while kissing).

I thought for sure I was dead,

And if the moan didn’t give me away,

The way my body tensed up should have.

But …

A few seconds later, in between kisses, he mumbled something about what a sexy moan I had …

At which point I totally got the giggles …

Mainly from the relief of not outing myself,

But also from thinking about how I could ruin the poor boy for life if I told him my function ! 🙂

Eventually, I just dragged his ass back to our table and then made my exit a short while later.

Though I do realize, it’s probably just a matter of time.

I try to exercise caution, but at the same time … I don’t live in a cave.

How long have you been fulltime?

Depends on how you want to calculate it. I consider myself being “fulltime” for 4 months now, with June 24 as my start date. Though I’m sure some people would say I’m still not yet fulltime as there have been occasions where I’ve done the boy thing during the last 4 months for work related matters.

In total, I think it’s been 7 times aggregate … 5 of those times, excluding drive time, for about 15 minutes each; 1 of those times for about 1 1/2 hours during which I told my function to a fellow attorney; and, one of those times for about 3 hours for a court hearing.

Have you had SRS yet? If not, are you going to? If yes, when?

No, I haven’t. Yes, I am. And that’s a secret for now.

I don’t know why, but I’m not into publicizing my SRS date, it’s going to be an after-the-fact announcement. Imagine that … me keeping something about me private … too weird !!

I think it’s kinda because at this point, what surgery remains just seems like a wart I need removed, and I hate to be reminded of even having a wart, so I not playing up the fact that I have to have one removed, I’m just looking forward to the date privately.

Dig? 🙂

Do you ever introduce yourself with your old name?

I haven’t yet *knock on wood*,

But it’s certainly within my ability !! 🙂

Actually, introducing myself to others as Amy is just very natural to me, I really don’t think about it. In some ways, I guess I tend to be a tad bit outgoing, I’m not one to shy away from striking up a conversation with someone by just walking up to them and introducing myself … so I’ve had plenty of practice introducing myself as Amy, Amy Preston, Amy-Wan Kenobi or even my occasional bar name, Jane Rove.

However, for some reason, I do screw up signing my checks fairly frequently. I’ll sign Joe’s name probably 1/2 the time still … and then it’s not uncommon for me to sign his name again when I’m writing a new check to correct the first mistake. Total waste of paper and trees … it’s a good thing I abhor the environment, huh ? 🙂

Is that your real hair?

Seriously, the first 9 billion times I was asked that question, I thought it was a compliment, because I took it as suggesting it looks pretty good.

However, on the 9,000,000,001st time, I decided I was wrong …

And people were asking it because they can’t believe one’s hair could look like mine does naturally and they are hoping it’s a wig …

And that someday my real hair will grow in and look much better.

Amyways, yes … it’s my real hair.

It was easier being a guy, wasn’t it?

I really wasn’t a guy, I just played one in real life.

So I have no idea whether it’s easy for a guy just to be themselves or not.

I suspect it is … from an outsider’s view … it does seem like they don’t put much effort into it.

I can say though that it was much harder for me to play a guy than anyone ever had any clue,

So from my perspective … “being a guy” wasn’t really that easy at all.

Whereas being a girl is very easy for me, ’cause I don’t have to think about it.

However, as far as my personal opinion goes, I think after all is said and done … it’s pretty much a wash on who has it easier.

And even if being a girl is “harder”, I honestly can say I’d never ever want to be a guy. The thought sort of disgusts me. Which probably sounds really strange to non-t’s, heck, maybe to t’s too, but it’s the case. 🙂

Do You Have a Boyfriend?

No, I don’t.

Though I am definitely ready to move to that social level when the opportunity presents itself.

I’ve lost interest in the novelty of the trivial validation exercises with boys I was engaging in earlier …

Though I still do them from time to time (probably too often) …

Because,

Well …

It’s something to do *shrug* 🙂

I’d definitely like some social interaction with more substance.

Unfortunately,

Because I really don’t want to date someone with the prospect that it could lead to more dates until I’ve either had my SRS, or …

Unless he knows my function,

I’m simply not dating dating.

I take enough chances as it is,

I don’t need to be one-on-one with a guy at his place, my place, his car, whereever …

When he finds out.

At this point …

The guys I’m meeting these days that I think might have some interest in asking me out,

Sure as hell don’t know my function.

And I don’t want to tell them.

Because it’s my new social group that I’m meeting these guys through …

And I really don’t care to screw things up with that group just yet.

How’s Shaft? Do you still see him?

He’s good.

I see him pretty much every workday now that I’m back at the office. Trust me, he’s hard to miss !! 🙂

He keeps busy with his family and remains obsessed with hockey …

His oldest son plays on a travel hockey team, so he’s doing that every weekend,

Plus he shares season ticket packages to the local pretend professional hockey team and MSU team *finger down my throat gesture*.

And he sneaks in a Detroit Red Wings game here and there,

When they aren’t on strike.

Not to mention, he continues his Super Dad role with Baby Shaft !!

We don’t hang out much anymore,

But that’s mainly because I’m disgusted by hockey,

And he simply doesn’t have the time. 🙂

However,

We do gab on the phone frequently, and …

He remains a trash talking bully in Amy’s Football League.

Not to mention,

The odds are still very good that someday he’ll get into a fight with someone while he’s defending my honor …

And that at some point in our lives he’ll talk me into hotwiring a bulldozer with him just so he can drive it …

Again. 🙂

Which restroom do you use?

The women’s rest room.

What did you do about your diplomas, licenses and certificates with your old name on them?

I’ve ordered or already obtained new ones with my new name. For those I couldn’t do that with, I just don’t display them anymore. Simple, see !! 🙂
